If you caught the rumour earlier this week that developers could prevent their games being downloaded on Steam Deck, worry not; turns out it was just an error. A tweet showed purported evidence that the recently-released Demon Gaze Extra had been specifically configured to prevent downloads to Steam Deck, which understandably worried early adopters of Valve’s new handheld system. Turns out it’s just a big misunderstanding, something Valve now suggests was “accidental”....

This Van Helsing review contains spoilers. Van Helsing Season 4 Episode 12 “Am I the only one staring at three blank pages?” For such an exposition heavy episode, “Three Pages” still finds plenty of time to move the core Van Helsing tale forward, and at the same time clearly demonstrate the show’s continued willingness to provide real stakes for the characters no matter how important they seem to be to the overall narrative....

Video games have exploded in popularity since the time of arcades and the first consoles. Many gamers started early, growing up with a controller in their hands. Games have become a large part of our lives, and are a hobby that any age, gender, and type of person (and yes, even celebrities play!) can enjoy. Some gamers have grown up to develop video games for a living and make a point of inserting characters or people that inspired them into their own games....

Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor - Martyr, the well-received 2018 action-RPG from developer NeocoreGames, will be making its way to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 on 27th October. Inquisitor - Martyr is a Diablo-esque take on the Warhammer 40,000 universe, casting players as Inquisitors who must battle their way, either solo or with friends, through a “haunted fortress-monastery which hides a terrible secret from the past”. It features cover-based combat, four classes (Psyker, Crusader, Assassin, and Tech-Adept, with the new Sororitas class due at a later date), a procedurally generated mission system, skill trees, a wide range of weapons and vehicles, two-player local co-op on consoles - as well as four-player online multiplayer - and more....

Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific Season Two introduced a range of new content, and Raven Software continues to improve the battle royale experience with regular updates. The latest update balances perks in Warzone Pacific to unlock even more possibilities. As many perks were originally intended for multiplayer, Raven Software has made changes to make them more viable in the context of a battle royale. An example of this is the Scavenger perk, which worked best in smaller areas....

Did you think the continued explorations of the Watchmen universe were going to end with Dr. Manhattan and Superman explaining the DC Metaverse in the pages of Doomsday Clock or Angela Abar taking that step in HBO’s Watchmen TV series? Certainly not. And certainly not in a world that is somehow more confused and even more disordered than the one into which the original Watchmen by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons was published in 1986....

Compulsion Games had planned on getting We Happy Few out of Early Access and into the hands of gamers in April. The plan has now changed and the release has been pushed back to summer to allow for extra development time. With the game now delayed, Compulsion has looked hard at the pricing and player feedback during Early Access and are now offering unconditional refunds to anyone who thought the pricing was unfair for what was on offer during this development phase....

The holiday season have finally arrived and with it comes a host of festivities, an unhealthy amount of food, and a flood of video game deals. However, before Thanksgiving totally fades, let’s profess our thanks to the fact that the deluge of game releases is finally slowing down for the season. The last three months of the year always experience the respective year’s most anticipated releases. Recently, this seasonal influx has expanded to September, but the idea stands the gamers save up for the first eight months of the year only to then blow all their money on the big titles that define the holiday shopping season....

What Does Cursor Control Keys Mean? Cursor control keys are buttons on a computer keyboard that move the cursor. They are often considered to be synonymous with arrow keys, but there is a slight difference; the cursor keys are usually several keys that can be used for the movement of the cursor, like the WASD combination. However, the arrow keys are four keys that have arrow markings on them, but are exclusively used for cursor movement in specified directions....

What Does Broadcast Storm Mean? A broadcast storm occurs when a network system is overwhelmed by continuous multicast or broadcast traffic. When different nodes are sending/broadcasting data over a network link, and the other network devices are rebroadcasting the data back to the network link in response, this eventually causes the whole network to melt down and lead to the failure of network communication. Techopedia Explains Broadcast Storm Although computer networks and network devices are very intelligent and efficient, networks and network devices sometimes fail to provide 100% efficiency....

The Witcher Season 3 has begun production and a plot summary has been revealed. Following the second season of Netflix’s fantasy saga that released at Christmas, the official Twitter account has shared an image of Geralt, Yennefer and Ciri on set in the snow (that’s Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra and Freya Allan). If it’s hard to ascertain any story from that, the account has also shared a plot summary. Mild spoilers follow....

Remember the XIII remake? Boy, I sure do. It came out back in November of 2020 and quickly became one of the most panned games around. From copious bugs and other severe technical issues, to the fact that it was actually notably worse than the game it remade in nearly every way, things were quite cataclysmic for the title. Developer PlayMagic promised the game would be fixed. An update or two was released, but radio silence soon followed and it appeared that any interest in fixing the game was dead in the water....

This is the most metal Nintendo 64 we’ve ever seen. And we mean that both figuratively and literally. We wouldn’t say that N64 is the best console Nintendo has ever made, but it holds a special place in people’s hearts for a certain generation. And certain retro game enthusiasts get really into their Nintendo 64s. YouTuber BitHead1000 is both a Nintendo 64 fan and a master fabricator. Combine these two together and you get a recipe that creates the most metal N64 ever made....

Franchises like Valkyria Chronicles and Advance Wars show that Japanese strategy games have a distinct style. Where Western developers favor realism, Japanese studios tend to aim for something more lighthearted. Tiny Metal: Full Metal Rumble is no exception. With its cartoony look, oversized tanks, eager soldiers, and overall campy sense of style, it’s hard not to see the lighthearted anime influences shine through. Full Metal Rumble is a sequel to 2017’s Tiny Metal, and with this latest outing, it’s clear that the series has left its mark on the turn-based strategy genre....

It’s been a while since we’ve last had a content drop (or Chapter Pack) for Creative Assembly’s Total War: Three Kingdoms. The last DLC, Eight Princes, didn’t exactly provide a slew of changes even though it introduced leaders from the Jin Dynasty’s tumultuous early years. But, we won’t have to wait too long for what’s next in-store. Total War: Three Kingdoms will have the Mandate of Heaven DLC in January 2020....

Gamechuck has just released the first teaser trailer for their upcoming title, Trip the Ark Fantastic. The game is a story-driven RPG adventure that takes place in the Animal Kingdom, which is on the verge of industrial and social revolution. Gamechuck says they “draw inspiration for the game from modern fables of classic literature, such as Animal Farm or Watership Down”. So, it’s safe to assume it won’t be all sunshine and rainbows for the characters of Trip the Ark Fantastic....

Shaq Fu x Barack Obama You might be familiar with the main star of Shaq Fu, former NBA player Shaquille O’Neil. The franchise was recently revived after decades of neglect. Shaq once again lets the haymakers fly on another journey of martial arts in his self-titled side-scrolling beat-em-up. However, the Twitch Prime delivery also means you get the game and its DLC, Barack Fu: The Adventures of Dirty Barry. Yes, that’s former US president Barack Hussein Obama wielding a hand-cannon that even Dirty Harry himself would be envious of....
