From the moment they were announced, the latest RTX 50XX series graphics cards were controversial. They’ve only become more so in the weeks since release. Announced alongside a bevvy of AI technologies, potential buyers were concerned over the difference between real frames and so-called “fake” frames. And although the distinction wasn’t especially convincing – show me what a “real” frame is and we’ll talk – the point was solid. These cards weren’t powerful enough. There wasn’t a big enough ...

Warriors Abyss is fantastic. A review will be coming in the next week or so, but the shadow dropped spin-off is well worth your time and money. Ultimately it’s a small budget affair but I can’t exaggerate what a breath of fresh air it is. I don’t know how successful it has been or how much money it needs to make back. But what I know is that after the far too wordy tutorial, this game just clicked. In a…

“The Backrooms 1998” isn’t just a simple jump-scare simulator; it’s a meticulously crafted descent into the unsettling realm of liminal spaces, a digital manifestation of a collective internet nightmare. It understands that true horror lies not in grotesque monsters or sudden shocks, but in the subtle erosion of reality and the creeping dread of the unknown. The game’s visual presentation, with its grainy, distorted VHS filter, acts as a powerful tool for disorientation, instantly transporting players to a world that…

“Bass Defense” on PC ventures into a captivating and somewhat uncharted territory, effectively merging the strategic depth of tower defense with the rhythmic precision of a music game. This hybrid approach creates a truly unique and engaging experience, demanding players not only strategize their defenses but also execute them with rhythmic accuracy. The core gameplay loop hinges on the player’s ability to synchronize their button presses with the pulsating soundtrack, transforming each wave of enemies into a musical challenge. This…

“Helios Hotel: The Night Shift” settles over the player like a damp, chilling fog, a deliberate descent into a carefully constructed atmosphere of dread. From the moment Rose steps behind the reception desk, the game makes it clear that this isn’t just another night shift. The air is thick with unease, a tangible presence that permeates every dimly lit hallway and empty room. The developers have clearly drawn inspiration from the masters of cinematic horror, evoking the claustrophobic tension of…

Has there ever been a game with so much pressure on it as Assassin’s Creed Shadows? Ubisoft need it to be a hit, and the difference it could make if its flops is gigantic. Not that there would be any kind of surprise in it doing well. This isn’t a Starfield level gamble, where you have an unproven IP and a sudden exclusivity. This is Assassin’s Creed, and while it doesn’t always burn up the forum inches in hardcore spaces,…
