PCGamesN Monday, October 28, 2024 7:55 AM  Now that the Call of Duty Black Ops 6 launch weekend has passed and the dust has started to settle, it seems not everyone is enamored with the series' latest entry. In fact, a consistent crashing issue and disdain for the new CoD's multiplayer maps have smudged BO6's launch. Even if there's still a lot of fun to be had, the shooter's reputation on Steam has started to sour, as more players hit roadblocks stopping them from even playing.

PCGamesN Monday, October 28, 2024 7:52 AM  When is The Alters release date? This survival sim from 11 Bit Studios tasks you with operating a giant wheel to escape the oncoming sunlight. Unfortunately, you are the only crew member, and this base needs an entire crew to operate. Taking advantage of an abundant resource known as Rapidium, you can create specialized clones of yourself to help man each part of the ship. For fans of management games with a sci-fi edge, The Alters has an otherworldly quirk. We now know that it's a space game about surviving certain doom with the help of your duplicates, and it's your choices that determine if protagonist Jan makes it out alive. That is, of course, if the multiple Jans can get along long enough to get the ship operational and avoid the deadly solar beams from a nearby sun. We've got all the gameplay and story details, as well as the latest news surrounding The Alters release date. Continue reading The Alters release date estimate, trailer, gameplay, and latest news |

Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, October 28, 2024 7:46 AM  I've often thought lighthouse keeping would make a fine second career, albeit mostly because in my head, it would give me endless time to write (and finish Baldur's Gate 3). You won't have much time to write in Static Dread, sadly. The world has ended, the oceans teem with unspeakable biofauna, and it's your job as the apparent sole surviving lighthouse keeper to distinguish vessels loaded with eldritch horrors from vessels loaded with people who need saving from eldritch horrors. Going by the teaser trailer, below, this appears to be comparable to playing border guard in Papers, Please, but it's less political and more tentacular. You field queries over the radio, run your finger down a clipboard, and decide whether to kindle the lamps or beg the coastguard to blast that ship back to hell. There's a dialogue line in the trailer which I, personally, would consider highly untrustworthy. "It's consuming my team!" screams a self-described ship captain. "Please, send help! Gosh..." Look, "friend", no genuine human being says "gosh" in an emergency situation. Not even British human beings say "gosh" in an emergency situation. That's what you say when somebody tells you the pizza-flavoured crisps are back on sale at Aldis. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, October 28, 2024 5:47 AM  One of my biggest challenges as a writer has been tempering my love of vague gestures at metaphysical concepts with the revelation that the people who read my articles also, apparently, can't read my mind. Pah. A skill issue if I ever saw one, honestly. Decade is a fascinating adventure game that drew me in with its apparent vagueness but then, like some sort of considerate, sensible coward, went on to explain itself well in on its Steam page. It's the end of the world, and you're not too happy about it, so you'll be shoving children in a time machine with little more than a rotting Lunchly and some instructions to help you figure out exactly what went wrong. What are you dressing as for Halloween? Me, I'm dressing as someone trying to bring back "tray-tray" in an effort to give Edwin a seizure. Here's the tray-tray: |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, October 28, 2024 5:34 AM  Back in April, I wrote about a hearing that took place between representatives Video Game History Foundation, the Rhizome project, and the Software Preservation Network, in which they argued the case for a DMCA exemption that would allow researchers to remotely access out-of-print games in libraries and archives. Representatives from the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) and the AACS were in opposition, with ESA legal representative Steve Englund at one point fretting about some sort of hellish "online arcade that (he'd) been warning about for the last several proceedings". Last Friday, as per a statement released by the VGHF and spotted by PC Gamer, the US Copyright Office officially denied the exemption. |
Rock Paper Shotgun Latest Articles Feed Monday, October 28, 2024 5:17 AM  This week is the week of Halloween, a period bountiful in horror games, but I write about horror games all the time anyway. Even when I'm writing about happy, upbeat games, I'm actually writing about horror games. I'm worried that if I double-down further on morbidity I might foul the Maw's humours and give it jaundice. So let's see if we can satiate the creature with some nice, breezy open worlders and RPGs instead. I'll throw in a single horror game just to keep up appearances. |
