| | Kotaku Sunday, October 31, 2021 2:00 PM | |  I don't expect much from licensed video games. So I was shocked when I came across the soundtrack for Scooby-Doo! Night of 100 Frights, a 2002 PS2 game based on the popular '70s cartoon. Turns out this game's music slaps.

| | PCGamesN Sunday, October 31, 2021 2:13 PM | |  Valve's Steam Deck handheld system releases later this year - at least, for those lucky enough to have pre-ordered very early - but one of the bigger question marks is how Steam itself will look and run on the console. Now we finally have an idea of how the Steam Store will look in the new "tablet mode" coming to Steam Deck. We've long known that Steam's Big Picture mode was getting replaced with whatever version of Steam would be running with the Steam Deck - even for those that don't own the handheld - but Valve hasn't really offered a good idea of how it's actually going to look, or how users will interact with the Steam Store on the new UI. Thanks to SteamDB creator Pavel Djundik we now have our first preview of how the store will look on the Steam Deck's new UI - which Valve is apparently also calling "tablet mode". The screenshots can be seen in Djundik's tweet below, showing the Steam Deck's version of pages for Counter-Strike, GTFO, the search page, and account details.

| | PCGamesN Sunday, October 31, 2021 1:28 PM | |  Crucible was Amazon Game Studios' big online hope before New World, but it ended up being cancelled less than six months after it was released. According to a developer behind the free-to-play third-person shooter, however, it should have been canned long before release. Amazon's F2P hero shooter Crucible was released in May 2020 to a less than impressive start, with our own review commenting on the removal of most of the game modes prior to release and how it's more of a MOBA than a hero shooter - which wasn't conveyed very well. Regardless, it was eventually pulled back to closed beta and finally shut down in November 2020. Amazon said that it shut the game down so quickly because it "didn't see a healthy, sustainable future ahead of Crucible", but one developer on the project has claimed that its problems ran deeper than that - and that "Crucible should have been cancelled rather than rebuilt", as it was during its extended development time.

| | PCGamesN Sunday, October 31, 2021 12:43 PM | |  Have you ever wanted to date an Eldritch horror from the dawn of time? Jokes about ex-partners aside, you'll soon be able to in Sucker For Love: First Date, a dating sim that promises to "put the 'love' back into 'Lovecraftian horror'" - with more than a hint of the deceptively cute Doki Doki Literature Club about it. Published by horror studio DreadXP, which originally released a basic version of Sucker For Love in its horror anthology Dread X Collection 2 which was made in just ten days - Sucker For Love: First Date offers players a chance to date a Cthulhu-like girl, a yellow-loving royal, and the enrapturing Nyanlathotep. There is certainly a lot about Sucker For Love that seems off or creepy, but don't worry, DreadXP promises that players can "let your guard down" and that there are "no horror elements or danger whatsoever. This is a dating game!" We're sure a publisher known for exclusively creating twisted horror games wouldn't lie about something like that, so it must be totally fine.

| | PCGamesN Sunday, October 31, 2021 11:59 AM | |  What are the best horror games on PC? Horror games tend to turn traditional action concepts on their heads and force you to run and hide from your enemies. Scary games leave you feeling vulnerable rather than empowered, and more than most, they are the gaming experiences that haunt you long after you play. Of course, there is a lot more to horror games than jump scares and gore, too. So while we have included a few obvious picks like Outlast and Amnesia, you can also expect to find games that use different tactics to raise your heartbeat and get your palms sweating. Don't worry about this list getting out of date, either: we hop back into our lists regularly to add new scary games. Remember, as Roosevelt once said, "we have nothing to fear but that bit in FEAR where you're going up a ladder and Alma suddenly pops out and you are all like argh!" Here are the best horror games on PC you can play right now... if you dare. RELATED LINKS: Resident Evil 2 review, Resident Evil 2 system requirements, Resident Evil 2 Tyrant

| | PCGamesN Sunday, October 31, 2021 11:48 AM | |  Amazon Game Studios' MMO New World has lost more than half of its player base since its launch. While initially, players counts for the game had been extremely promising - launching to 650,000 concurrent players before raising significantly to over 900,000 at the beginning of October - over 500,000 players have left New World in less than a month. New World has certainly had a rough time since its stellar launch on September 28. Various major bugs and exploits have turned up, and even its best feature - the sheer number of players - proved troublesome, as servers got overloaded, waiting times skyrocketed, and the ability to transfer between servers got progressively more and more delayed. According to SteamCharts (via Forbes), it would seem that the majority of players have either had enough of these issues or are waiting for New World to become more stable - or get more features - and have stopped playing for the time being.

| | PCGamesN Sunday, October 31, 2021 10:30 AM | |  I've been a fan of the Resident Evil series since the original and I've played, completed, and enjoyed every mainline entry, with one major exception: Resident Evil 6. Released nearly a decade ago to mixed reviews from fans and critics alike, RE6 represented a total departure from the series' survival horror roots. Its multiple campaigns are schlocky and uneven, the co-op integration leaves solo play feeling like an afterthought, and a complete abandonment of classic features like a merchant or inventory management all combined to sour the experience for long-time fans. The backlash seemed so complete at the time that I chose to avoid it for years. This Halloween, I've decided to finally give it a shot. The sparse main menu, which is reminiscent of an early '00s multiplayer game, doesn't instil much confidence. Then there's a small grumble when I realise that the only way to pause the game is to play the whole thing in offline mode, and thus, alone. Of course I still have an AI partner to help me out, but as is the case in Resident Evil 5, they're basically just a medic, since every time you go down they're instantly on hand to revive you.
