There's no getting around it. The PlayStation Portal, Sony's new wireless PS5 handheld, is very weird-looking. Essentially a DualSense controller split in half with a touchscreen in the middle, it's the handheld equivalent of a Hummer turned into a stretch limousine.

Stellaris is, for my money, the crown jewel of Paradox's outstanding library of grand strategy games. There's not much grander than the vast expanses of outer space, after all.

     Fan of abandoned Bethesda FPS vows to buy copies until we get a sequel

Currently sitting at the top of the Steam wishlist chart, you might have played The Finals, an upcoming, multiplayer shooter with lightning pace and a stylized aesthetic. What you probably won't have played is Brink, a 2011 FPS from Gears of War and Halo co-developer Splash Damage, and Starfield's own Bethesda. As of this writing, Brink has a grand total of 12 players on Steam - it looks and feels a bit like The Finals, but even when it launched, Brink struggled to attract more attention, or rather, any of the right kind of attention. Nevertheless, the shooter from the team that brought you Fallout and Skyrim has its defenders, including one person who is now on a mission to buy copy after copy of Brink until Bethesda makes a sequel.

     MW3 Season 1 release date window, modes, and more details

When is the MW3 Season 1 release date? The latest installment in the Call of Duty series is upon us already, and hordes of fans are already getting involved in chaotic multiplayer mayhem. While there's a lot to learn in the first few days of any new Call of Duty game, impatient players are already asking when they can expect to see seasonal content drops.

Historically, the first season of modern Call of Duty games usually arrives about one month after the main game's release. Last year's MW2 was released on October 28, while season 1 followed on November 16 just two and half weeks later. Sure, there's plenty to keep you busy without the need for additional content, but once you've no-lifed the Modern Warfare 3 campaign and started to get to grips with the best MW3 guns, there's nothing better than starting up a new battle pass in the FPS game. Here's what we know about the Modern Warfare 3 season 1 release date window.

Europa Universalis 4 is a giant. A historically dedicated, sweeping grand strategy sim from Crusader Kings and Cities Skylines 2 creator Paradox, ten years since launch, it remains one of the most in-depth and detailed 4X experiences available on PC.

The most iconic Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 map - maybe the most iconic CoD map, period - has been recreated and rebuilt in real life to mark the launch of the new and rebooted Call of Duty MW3.

Speaking to investors in an earnings call this week, GTA 6 publisher Take-Two's CEO Strauss Zelnick had a bit to say about the eternally uncontroversial topic of videogame prices. In news worth holding the press for, he thinks they're pretty cheap for what you get in return.

Zelnick cautioned one investor against "generalising" about the state of game pricing based on the recent fortunes of TV and movie subscription services like Netflix, which have had to increase subscription fees to match their expenses after underpricing themselves initially to grow their audiences. Videogames might be all about subscription services these days, Zelnick said, but that doesn't mean they are subject to the same commercial logics as ye olde non-interactive media. In particular, it doesn't mean publishers are currently able to raise videogame prices, even if they feel like they're overdelivering.

The fake video games in movies and TV shows can be difficult to understand, for an obvious reason: they're not real games. Their function is providing a few seconds of motion, colours, and noises, and possibly a premise for a plot to riff on. They don't need to be coherent or good. Still, sometimes these glimpses and ideas are interesting enough that I quite enjoy trying to figure them out. Take Gods Of Combat, a fake first-person shooter featured in police procedural show Criminal Minds. Apparently it's such a great game that the only way to achieve a similar high after being banned is hijacking a schoolbus and forcing teenagers to kill each other.

Here's a fun (nonlethal) game we can play together, reader dear: I'm going to describe Gods Of Combat as best I can, then you tell me how you think it works.

As a staunch Nintendo head in the early console days, I would say my affection for PS1-era games is... present, but not particularly palpable. For me, the PlayStation One was mostly a machine to play Final Fantasies VII through IX on, and not much else (it was a very belated and cheap second-hand purchase, I should note, and games were still sufficiently expensive back then that maintaining two healthy game libraries for both the family N64 and my new Squall box was nigh on impossible). Nevertheless, I've been increasingly fascinated by the revival of PS1-era games in recent years, and it's been interesting to see which modern games have been "demade" in this style - see Bloodborne PSX - and which ones have made it their own from the off - see Signalis, Heartworm, and many others.

Crow Country is the latest game I've seen to take up the PSX mantle, and it combines the chunkiness of Final Fantasy VII-style character models with the grimy survival horror of something like Resident Evil to brilliant effect. Made by SFB Games, the same devs wot made the also excellent Tangle Tower, it's currently got a very good demo up on Steam at the moment, and it's got me thinking: what do you like most about PS1-era games on PC, and which ones are your all-time favs?

World of Warcraft's expansion pack The War Within, out next year, comes in several flavours. There's the standard version of the pack, which includes access to previous expansions, currency for cosmetics and a level 70 character boost. The Heroic edition gives you all that plus a mount, a pet and extra in-game cash. And then there's the most expensive Epic edition, which includes a pet, two toys, 30 days of game time... and three days of early beta access to the game, yours for $89.99 in the states.

Naturally, World of Warcrafters are rather concerned about the last bit. It's the first time Blizzard's long-running MMO has taken the paid early access approach, recently adopted by Starfield and Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 - there have been early access betas in the past, but they've been doled out by lottery. Blizzard's game director Ion Hazzikostas has now moved to reassure the grousers and gripers, promising that The War Within's Epic edition won't give minted early worms the edge over those poor peasants who scoop up the less pricey versions.

There will be a few located throughout the map and will be blue with the person running. Kind of like a fire exit sign. When you reach the exfil point, you should see green smoke coming out from the area. When you interact with it, this will notify the helicopter to pick you and your squad up.  Screenshot: PC Invasion Easy, right? Well, I'm here to tell you, that's only half of the process.
