Great moments in PC gaming are bite-sized celebrations of some of our favorite gaming memories.I try to never be one of those people who talk about how much better things were back in the day… and that's really easy because everything sucked back in the day. Things are terrible these days, sure, but they were even worse "back in the day." Any time anyone tries to tell you things were...
The Independent Fallout Wiki and the Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages (UESP) have announced a new partnership joining the two endeavors. Both sites' curation, expansiveness, and, crucially, user experiences with minimal/unobtrusive ads make them cherished resources on the internet of 2025."We're now proud to be the host of the Independent Fallout Wiki," UESP wrote on Bluesky. "We don't want to become one of those wikifarms that tries to trap sites, so...
As part of a new "FPS Fridays" series on Twitch, legendary shooter designer John Romero streamed New Blood's 2018 hit, Dusk, one of the first and most influential indie "boomer shooters" in the genre's recent revitalization. The short of it? Romero seems to have had a blast.The Doom dev easily slipped into the rhythms of strafing, juking, and hunting for secrets. Though he insisted he wasn't shooting for 100% completion,...
Summer Game Fest 2025 returns in June to fill the vacuum left by E3 — may it rest in peace — and will be joined by a long list of showcases from the likes of Xbox and tireless independent organizers who will put on shows like Day of the Devs and Wholesome Direct. This year’s Summer Game Fest and Not-E3 extravaganza may look a little lighter, though. Publishers like Sony, Nintendo, and...
After spending several months doing not much besides watching Tom Cruise movies, I now spend a lot of time wondering about Tom Cruise running. The Mission: Impossible star is a high-cadence runner. He’s famously short of stature, low to the ground and with short legs. But that build is perfect for cinema, because those arms swing and those legs churn and convey a viscerality, a violence, a constant labored activity...
I've always been a fan of The Finals' destructible environments, although I've sometimes felt its desire to be a proper, grown-up multiplayer shooter obstructed the simple pleasure of ripping a building apart Red Faction: Guerilla style. But that looks set to change, at least temporarily, with the game's newly added limited-time mode. This is a straight-up 5v5 slugfest that mostly involves hitting everyone with hammers, and it's perhaps the closest...
If it wasn't already clear, we've formally arrived in the age of the meme movie. The Minecraft Movie was basically a sequence of memes strung together, and Michael Bay is making a Skibidi Toilet film. Now, omnipresent creepypasta The Backrooms is also getting an adaptation for the silver screen.The film, which is based specifically on the viral YouTube series created by Kane Parsons (as opposed to the more general Backrooms...
Rick and Morty remains a staggering work of chaotic creativity. Previewing a handful of episodes from season 8, which premieres Sunday, May 25 with a Matrix-themed story inspired by phone charger theft, I still had that brain-melty “How do they think of this stuff?” feeling from when the show premiered more than a decade ago. The characters aren’t all the same as they were back in 2013 (voice actors aside):...
Give it some credit: it's not every game that lets you edit the text in its installation wizard while you wait for setup to conclude. But Big Rigs dares to be so bold. It is also so bold as to allow you to accelerate to literally infinite speeds by holding reverse, to have absolutely zero collision, and to splatter a .bmp of a three-handled trophy on the screen whenever you...
Lightyear Frontier seemed well liked when it launched into Steam early access last March, garnering a Very Positive rating from players for its ingenious synthesis of first-person mech piloting and farming simulation. But it seems there's been some discontent bubbling beneath that big blue thumbs up.In announcing its imminent Shifting Gears update, Frame Break opens with something of a mea culpa, explaining why it hasn't provided more information about the...
