PCGamesN Saturday, May 11, 2024 9:58 AM  The discussion around the best space games is an ever-changing one, with the launch of Homeworld 3 bringing it into competition alongside heavy hitters like Outer Wilds, Elite Dangerous, Stellaris, No Man's Sky, Everspace 2, and Bethesda's Starfield.

The mammoth project from Roberts Space Industries continues to grow, and developer Cloud Imperium says that the new Star Citizen Alpha 3.23 update is "one of our most expansive and game-changing releases to date."

PCGamesN Saturday, May 11, 2024 7:36 AM  There's no other game series like Dark Souls. FromSoftware's landmark series encouraged many imitators, but the trilogy's authenticity of design, lack of compromise, and approach to challenge cannot be beaten. Elden Ring brought this to the open world, but the Dark Souls trilogy used more condensed design in ways that help it hold up today. So if you've never played any of the originals, now's the time, because you can get them all cheap on Steam.

PCGamesN Saturday, May 11, 2024 7:00 AM  It's painful to see the back-to-back bad news in gaming nowadays, from studio closures to projects falling into limbo. I imagine myself clutching a well-used copy of Fallout: New Vegas and shouting into the sky that we have to go back, as it can feel as though the habits and trajectory of the past decade have failed us. The AAA industry's move to live-service games has ended in numerous storied disasters, and right now it feels like almost nothing new sticks around for long. The exception to the rule recently is Helldivers 2, which has deservedly found and retained an audience.

The response that Blizzard inspires from players might have shifted over the years, but it certainly still bears an incredible weight. Responsible for many of the best PC games of all time, the developer's reach can be felt across the industry in both its own projects and those it has inspired. Now, not long past the cancellation of its mysterious survival game, it appears that a new Blizzard game is on the cards.

Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut is coming to Steam in just a few days, and despite only needing PlayStation Network (PSN) for the multiplayer portion of the game, it looks like Sony has removed it from a huge number of territories without any warning.

There are dozens of great FPS games from the '90s, the timeless classics that helped shape the PC as a platform. Imagine now a kind of boomer shooter Valhalla, where the weapons, mechanics, and pyrotechnics that defined that glistening erstwhile era come finally together to fight, frag, and circle strafe for eternity. One of the greatest Half-Life mods of all time, itself inspired by the best ever Doom mod, delivers on that dream. And after years of silence, it's finally back from the dead.

I'll admit I have the tendency to be a crybaby, or at least that was the case when watching anime in the past. These days, it is hard for a series to make me emotional. Or at least it was until this Spring 2024 anime season began. Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again might hold the record for the show to make me tear up the fastest.
As the name implies, this series is about an old grandpa and grandma who are likely in their 80s at the least. The pair suddenly turn young again within the first few minutes of the initial episode's start. Before that, though, it starts with a gut-wrenching short conversation between the two about how poor they were early in their marriage. As a result, they weren't able to go on a honeymoon.
Instantly, I was struck with a lump in my throat. This hit too close to home. I got married earlier in 2024 and am only a couple of months married myself. Because of some family issues, we had to move up our wedding to a much sooner date than planned. As such, we didn't get to go on a honeymoon, much like this elderly couple.
Though we will rectify that situation with a honeymoon, hopefully later this year, this statement immediately hit me in the feels. It felt like the series was there to help me reflect on my past, my future, and where my family is heading. Thankfully for myself and my Kleenex box, the show moved into a more comedic tone from there.
After the grandpa and grandma become young, the series enters in its more hilarious and sitcom-like antics. The first episode wastes no time in seeing how this change in their age affects their children, grandchild, and even community members. There are countless funny moments in the opening episode alone. One involves the various women fawning over the now young again grandpa. Another is the ridiculous recreation of a memorable monologue from the grandma's past. It all works so well, introducing a slew of fascinating characters within the opening episode.
And it doesn't stop from there. The next couple of episodes I watched only continued the hilarity and breakneck pace. Moments like participating in an old people sports festival or dealing with a mysterious hourglass keep the fun going. This is the type of show to watch for both a good laugh and also a chance to reflect on life at the same time. Not many anime series balance this as well as Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again.
Sure, I won't deny Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again feels as thought it has a bit of a lower budget than most other anime series out there. The art style has its issues, especially when it comes to some of the more awkward and less detailed animations. However, it doesn't need to look great to have a riveting story. Its goofy, off-kilter writing and unforgettable leads carry this series. For that reason, I highly recommend everyone to check Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again out. (Even if you aren't a newlywed like myself.)
Grandpa and Grandma Turn Young Again is available to stream right now on Crunchyroll.

PC Invasion - FeedDDD Saturday, May 11, 2024 3:44 AM  In Little Kitty, Big City, you'll unlock emotes to show off the full variety of cat expressions. You just need to learn them, first. How to use emotes in Little Kitty, Big City Using emotes in Little Kitty, Big City is thankfully super easy. All you have to do is hold down one of these buttons, depending on the device you're using to play: PC: Hold F Xbox: Hold Y Switch: Hold X With that button being held, you can use your mouse or joystick to select which emote you want to use. Once you've chosen, let go of the button, and your kitty will perform the expression. At the beginning of the game, you'll start with two: I sits!, and A Little Lie Down. Although these are both classic cat moves, they're a little basic. Most, however, will learn about emoting when encountering the Mayor Cat, as I did, so you've likely got a third one, called Yuck! More emotes can be earned from playing the game, but if you want to get them all, t... |
