God of War is my favorite action-adventure game since The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time . If you know my gaming tastes ( OoT is my favorite game ever made), then you understand how big of a statement that is coming from me.
PUBG is nothing short of a phenomenon. The Battle Royale game kickstarted the genre that is now incredibly popular the world over. The game is in its tenth season and continues to receive updates to keep the game fresh and balanced. After the PC version of the game received version 10.3 at the start of the month, the PUBG console update 10.3 will be live today, February 23. Here are all the times and patch notes you need to know ab
Textures can be tricky to max out, especially for those with limited VRAM in their video cards. However, anything with even 4GB can likely max out the Textures setting. Most players are safe with Ultra Textures here, and they would want it at t
We are proud to introduce the Chicken, a new creature that will hopefully amuse many players during fierce combats in Taego! “Chicken? Why the heck?†you might wonder. The answer to this question is left to your imaginati
Before diving in and changing the advanced graphical options, players will want to make sure that they have the most optimal display settings. The Window Mode determines how much of a priority PUBG Battlegrounds is while running as a prog
Disco Elysium is yet another game that uses its platform to tell a hard and powerful story. To do so effectively, Disco Elysium created an experience that, as PCGamesN’s review puts it, ” set new genre standards for exploration and conversation systems. ” It’s still too early to see how this title will affect the world of narrative-driven games, but there’s no doubt that systems like its award-winning dialogue boxes will be greatly expanded on and experimented with over time. As it stands, few other games have explored narrative in the same way, and its writing has captured the attention of m
Patch 14.2 is quite a big one, as it includes two brand new weapons, plenty of changes, and even chickens! Full details can be found in the patch notes below, but here’s quick overview of the most important b
**A brand new PUBG collectibles update arrived earlier today (November 2nd or 3rd depending on where you’re based), having previously been released exclusively for the PC Test Servers. It brings the game to version 14.2 with plenty of new features and changes
There is a whole generation of PS4 owners who are probably way too deep into Fortnite , with that game being their first exposure to the genre. While I wouldn’t count myself amongst them, I cannot imagine that any of those people would choose this $30 experience, with little promise to grow and improve, over triple-A titles that have since leapfrogged over PU
Even before the game went through a rebrand, or before it was even released as a full version, PUBG Battlegrounds veterans have been setting this setting to Very Low. The reason is simple: more foliage means more camouflage for enem
View Distance can be a tricky setting to balance, as the hardware advantage pays off quite a lot. It determines how early or near the landscape will be rendered relative to the viewer’s position. As expected, that kind of process takes power from the graphics c
As a whole, 2018 was just an okay year for games. While I think many of the best games of this entire generation released this year, a lot of the more standard releases that we’ve come to expect every few years seemed to be in decline. Shadow of the Tomb Raider , Battlefield 5 , NBA 2K19 , and heck, even the disaster that turned out to be Fallout 76 were all pretty disappointing to me. At the start of 2018, I thought this year looked like a monster on paper, but there ended up being far more duds than I would have initially expected.
Having dabbled with PUBG on mobile, and pseudo-training myself through Fortnite , Call of Duty’s Blackout, and yes, even Realm Royale , I went into this version already understanding the ins-and-outs of the battle royale genre. Situational awareness, looting, and so on were concepts that I was familiar with. Besides feeling foolish about not being able to tell drivable vehicles from set dressing, and learning to reload every time I pick up a new weapon, I felt quite comfortable in navigating the sp
Luckily, this weaker slate of games finally allowed me to return a bit more to my backlog and play some titles from past years that I’ve been putting off for far too long. Simultaneously, this lack of new games that interested me also led to me falling into a MOBA hole for the first time ever and folks, lemme tell ya, that ain’t a fun place to be at. Fortunately, as the year wraps up, I think I’ve finally figured out how to balance my newfound MOBA addiction while still playing plenty of other games that interest me. I’m in a good place in my gaming life heading into 2019, and I’m excited to see what this next year will bring.
