This month Oblivion Remastered, The Last of Us 2, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and Blue Prince are selling real well, though Steam's gold-tier top 12 also includes The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy, a game so ambitious it pushed its creators to the brink of bankruptcy.Steam's been doing these charts since 2019, though...

Helldivers 2 players are pleading for people to stop using a newly discovered infinite Stratagem glitch that lets you shower planets in airstrikes.Something went very wrong with the last patch and messed up how Stratagems normally work: Using a simple combination of inputs, you can now spam them until the game can't handle it anymore. There are videos of people spawning in dozens of ships and explosions that cause their...

No matter what reactions a Hideo Kojima game elicits from you, we can all appreciate swinging for the fences. Death Stranding is the sort of game that, in our profoundly risk-averse business, should have never gotten the sizable Sony-backed budget it did, but such is the power of Kojima's name.Still, I have to imagine someone at Sony broke a sweat when they learned they were funding a delivery simulator that's...

That means anyone who can't stand spiders couldn't play what is a pretty killer RPG.Thankfully it's becoming more and more common for games to add arachnophobia modes as part of their post-launch support, and Avowed will be no different....

Bungie is, once again, being accused of using the designs of an independent artist without permission, pay, or attribution. In a post on X earlier today, visual artist Antireal said that Marathon's environment art uses design elements pulled directly from her 2017 poster designs."Bungie is of course not obligated to hire me when making a game that draws overwhelmingly from the same design language I have refined for the last...

If you've seen a funny Elder Scrolls clip on YouTube or elsewhere on the internet in the past few years, it was probably from Bacon_, whose wry editing and lack of commentary allow his videos of the notoriously janky games to just speak for themselves. His own favorite video in his catalogue, the eight-second "I love dogs," could literally only happen in the Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion."I'm Rena Bruiant," declares...

Funcom has shared some stats on the Dune: Awakening beta that took place last weekend, and players certainly got up to some bloody business. The only substantial water supply in the early game is the blood of your enemies, and in four days of the beta players extracted 8,715,331 liters of blood from fallen foes (and potentially a few unlucky desert mice).That's a lot of blood. That's so much blood...

Stellar Blade, the action game where if you squint it will look like Nier: Automata, is finally coming to PC on June 11.Actually, you don't even have to squint to make it look like Nier: Automata because the DLC that lets main character Eve wear 2B's outfit comes with it. It's a complete edition, after all, so everything PlayStation 5 players got a year ago will be included, like the...
