Pixar was built on risks. From its earliest days, the animation studio tried things no one had tried before: producing the first full-length CG animated feature; pushing the emotional limits of kid-friendly movies with stories built around death and loss; focusing on original characters, stories, and designs, rather than retelling familiar fairy tales or emulating existing and well-established animation styles. Compared to some of Pixar’s biggest swings, its latest movie,...

Overwatch 2’s 17th season is coming soon and with it a long list of updates to the game’s recently launched Stadium mode. But players of core modes of Overwatch 2 — namely Quick Play and Competitive — also have a lot to look forward to in the game’s new season. Of course, there’s the usual batch of cosmetics, including two new Mythic-tier skins, a new battle pass, and a fresh a limited-time...
The Switch 2 supports HDR, at least in theory. Where older tech leans on extremes, HDR captures the gradients between extremes better, which creates vivid colors while also ensuring that brighter and darker portions of the image don’t lose finer details. The reality, however, is that the settings the Switch 2 provides to users are nearly impossible to properly configure, even if you follow Nintendo’s instructions to the letter. The...

The first time sticky notes almost killed me in Remedy Entertainment’s FBC: Firebreak, the new multiplayer spinoff of 2019’s Control, I laughed out loud. A slow death brought on by the overwhelming horde of memos you’re tasked with destroying is the most fitting demise in a game that leans heavily into satirizing corporate life. The fourth sticky note death elicited a small grin and more than a little annoyance, as...
FBC: Firebreak is one of the messiest games I've ever played, but this is in large part because it is a game about mess. Creating it, cleaning it up, getting caked up to your neck in it—your character is constantly covered in water or sticky notes or quivering pink goo that could've sluiced straight out of a British gameshow in the nineties. If Noel Edmonds ever made a first-person shooter,...
I can't say I ever thought I'd write a guide about how to destroy sticky notes, but FBC: Firebreak isn't your average game. If you've already played Control, you'll know that things get a little funky in this federal bureau and paranormal hotbed, including a plague of sentient sticky notes that need to be periodically destroyed before they take over.Destroying 15,000 sticky notes is a bit of a strange objective...
Puzzling out the best weapons in FBC: Firebreak might take you a little time when you first drop into the Federal Bureau of Control. Not too long, mind you, considering the game only has six weapons on launch and some are quite clearly a lot stronger than others. To quickly aid you in gunning down Hiss, I've put together a tier list of the best, along with my personal verdict...
