Los Santos CustomsI'm modding GTA 5 every day in a quest to either transform it into a PC version of GTA 6 or break it entirely. Come back tomorrow to find out what new horrible thing I've done to Rockstar's baby, or check out what I got up to earlier.Every nation has its kooks—excepting of course the Swiss—but there's something utterly American to me about the UFO sighting. It's probably...
Like it or not, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil film has been a critical hit. It reached universal acclaim on metacritic and was a smash hit among the PC Gamer team. I wasn't as fond of it as I hoped to be, but even still I loved the ride and appreciated its faithful adaptation of the videogames. After all this time, I never thought a Resident Evil adaptation could be as...
Silent Hill: Townfall has a different kind of resonance if you grew up in the UK. Its Scottish island of St Amelia is already my favourite video game environment of the year for how it evokes the atmosphere and time of a place—specifically 1996—and captures the specific details of small town life. From the video rental shop to the bunting sadly hanging from the buildings, it's the kind of run-down...
A few months ago I made the case that a 360 Hz refresh rate on your monitor is the sweet spot for competitive FPS before diminishing returns kick in. I had nothing but my own testing and a big bottle of 'trust me bro' back then, but I've now spoken to a couple of Counter-Strike 2 pros and I remain convinced I was right.At Logitech's G Play event (featuring a...
Despite its surprise announcement at BlizzCon earlier this month, Diablo 5 is a whole three years away. Blizzard's brief teaser trailer had zero gameplay in it, which means the action RPG sequel is still mostly a mystery.But director Joe Shely helped paint a picture of what the real thing might look like during a recent group interview with PC Gamer.One of the somewhat controversial aspects of the last couple Diablo...
You can play the first several hours of World of Warcraft: Forever and miss a lot of the changes Blizzard slipped into the early leveling experience. There are new quests and NPCs, but they barely stand out if you don't have encyclopedic knowledge of the MMO.Now that players have had enough time to hit the beta's level 20 cap, they're starting to find what makes WoW: Forever different from a...
If you've ever wanted to play a cozy life sim where you craft, farm, build, cook, and complete quests for villagers, and also make products from human corpses, Graveyard Keeper 2 is out today.I'm only about 13 hours into it and it's got that same immediately engrossing crafting loop as the original. Gotta chop wood, gotta mine ores, gotta cook food, gotta level up skills and earn points and unlock...

As a game, yes (with some rather off-putting gen-AI mixed in there), and...
I'm a thoroughly average gamer. And in first-person shooters, I reckon I am ever so slightly above average at aiming—If aim-tester software, Aimlabs, is anything to go by, at least (top 38%, baby). But as a hardware tester, I have access to all kinds of gaming gear, and that includes competitive-level specs. I wanted to see if the average gamer would benefit from a better polling rate and, as the...
