I was once a regular Counter-Strike player, but that was almost twenty years ago. What’s remarkable about Valve’s team shooter is how little its fundamentals have changed over those twenty years. The AWP and M4A1? Still pretty much how they were when I was first mishandling them in the Half-Life mod. Which makes yesterday’s Counter-Strike:

At this point, I’d consider the wacky bugs continually introduced to The Sims 4 as more of a feature than a bug. For example, a recent update turned previously placid Sims into moody, argumentative jerks who were constantly scrapping with one another. That sounds great to me, although if you disagree there’s bad news. EA

Next week is Black Friday, the yearly sales event which means everyone will be thrusting air fryers and SD cards towards you. That’s fine with me – I need an SD card – but you may also enjoy Steam’s unaffiliated Autumn Sale. Valve have announced it’ll begin on Tuesday, November 22nd and run for a

Each time we start up a new mainline Pokémon game, we begin our journey with a choice. Sometimes it’s an easy one. Sometimes it’s agonizing. But regardless of where on that spectrum each generation lands for you, the general choice remains the same: grass, water, or fire. Thanks to the rock-paper-scissors nature of the types

The Risk Of Rain intellectual property and both Risk Of Rain and Risk Of Rain 2 are now owned by Gearbox. Gearbox were previously the publisher of Risk Of Rain 2 and say they are “eager to prove ourselves as worthy custodians” of the series. They bought the IP from original developers Hopoo Games, who

This year’s Saints Row reboot met financial expectations, according to the interim report of mega-publisher Embracer. The same can’t be said of the critical response, however, so developers Volition “will transition to become part of Gearbox.”

At a glance, Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader looks like so many other turn-based games set in the 40K universe. Except, this isn’t turn-based strategy, but a proper CRPG from the makers of the recent, well-liked Pathfinder games. Its first gameplay trailer awaits below.

Aska is a multiplayer survival game about building a settlement and farming, sailing and fighting giant monsters. So far, so Valheim.

Shadows Of Doubt invites skepticism. It’s an open world mystery game set in a city in which every resident is simulated with daily schedules and routines, and it’s developed largely by a single person.

Crucial’s rather excellent value SATA DRAM-less QLC SSD, the BX500, is down to £56 on Amazon UK from an RRP of £74. I feel that’s a decent savings on a drive ideal for upgrading an older machine or as media/game storage in a new one, where money spent per gigabyte is the primary measurement of
