Would You Give Up Your Xbox Controller To Use The New Ps5 Dualsense Instead

Sony have today released the first images and information about the “DualSense”, the new controller that will ship with the PlayStation 5. There’s no confirmation yet but the assumption is that it will follow its predecessor by working on PC as well. So: would you give up your Xbox controller for Sony’s latest? In a post on the PlayStation blog, Sony’s Hideaki Nishino explains the controller’s new features. It has haptic feedback, which is like a fancier version of the rumbling controllers started doing in the ’90s and which has been increasingly popular with various virtual reality wands....

X Wing Alliance Looks Incredible For A 21 Year Old Game

As RPS’ resident modder, I often come across dedicated communities propping up old games. I’m used to seeing glow-ups, but this pewed me away. The people behind it have been working on the game for 20 years, expanding their original plans from upgrading the ship models to retouching everything in the game. The base game remains intact, but the visual overhaul is stellar, and I’d have no issue with loading it up for a space battle or ten....

Yakuza 6 Is Out Now On Pc And That S Rad

Yakuza 6 is Kiryu’s final chapter, an emotional send-off for arguably the best boy in video games. But this isn’t all about him. There’s another boy, a baby boy, you’ll need to soothe through various minigames. In-between your serious dad commitments, there are of course cats to rescue, giant squid to punch, and the peaceful shores of Onomichi to explore. I’ve actually got a Yakuza 6 review in the works, and as you can probably tell, I think it’s a very good time....

You Can Die In The First 15 Seconds Of Baldur S Gate 3

“If you’re not careful you can die in Baldur’s Gate 3 as Astarion in the first 15 seconds of the game,” he told RPS VidBud Matthew. “If you click on the river, that’s the Chionthar river that’s going past you, and if you just don’t pay attention you will dissolve in acid, right there on the spot where you spawn.” Not ideal. Who’s idea was it to make vampires so squishy?...

A Day In The Life Of Grounded S Ants Obsidian Talk Eggs Pheromones And Their Incoming Queen

In any case, I’m rather fond of the game, and have attacked my own friends for daring to menace its ants, as warned. So you can probably imagine how excited I got at the prospect of interviewing its lead designer, Obsidian’s Adam Brennecke, about the ants. That’s not all I asked him about, and I’ll have more to share next week, but this article today is about mostly about the ants....

A New Video Hints At Ffvii Remake On Pc

Squenix’s new video is an address by producer Yoshinori Kitase. It’s just a short “message to the fans” reiterating why Square think you’ll be ga-ga for the remake. Your eyes may gloss over watching it, but look sharp down there at the bottom of the screen. What’s that in fine print? “Gameplay captured on PC,” it says. Oh really? Most likely, this is just a small disclaimer about the video quality and framerate, not some sneaky revelation....

Actor David Warner Baldur S Gate 2 S Antagonist Jon Irenicus Has Died Aged 80

Warner’s most recent role in video games was a return to the character of Irenicus in 2016’s Baldur’s Gate: Siege Of Dragonspear. Beamdog, developers of Dragonspear along with the Enhanced Edition revamps of Baldur’s Gate and its sequel, managed to coax the actor back to record new lines for their version of the second game too. Andrew Foley, who worked with Warner on Baldur’s Gate II: Enhanced Edition, said in 2016: As a classically trained actor who’d played Hamlet and Henry VI in Royal Shakespeare Company productions, Warner helped make Baldur’s Gate 2 into one of the best RPGs of the 2000s....

Alan Wake Was The First Game I Upgraded My Pc For And I D Do It Again For Alan Wake Remastered

Heck, back then I wasn’t even trying to play Alan Wake at the time, either. While the PC version didn’t come out until 2012, I first came to Alan Wake a year later in 2013, according to my Steam achievements, and man alive, my PC just wasn’t up to snuff. I remember just about getting through the first section easily enough, where Alan’s chilling out in his mountain cabin trying to write his new crime novel but then discovers his wife’s gone walkabout....

Amazon Launching Action Rpg Lost Ark In February

When our Ed played a few hours of a preview version earlier this year, he didn’t see much that made it stand out. “Still, what I played of Lost Ark was undeniably fun, with strong combat in a wonderfully presented world,” he conceded. “Those early hours are packaged in a traditional MMO fashion, though, and it’s clear this game is going to be a big old time sink for those who want to persevere with it....

Amazon S Mmo New World Hit 200 000 Concurrent Players Over The Weekend

According to SteamDB, New World hit its all-time peak of 200,856 concurrent players on Sunday, and around 90,000 are in-game now. It’s currently the seventh most-popular game on Steam, above the likes of Rust, Team Fortress 2 and Warframe. These stats absolutely blow Crucible out of the water, which saw a peak of around 25,000 players during its own beta last year. Players are a little more hungry for a new MMO than an odd mishmash of team shooter and MOBA, it seems....

Apex Legends Has Arrived On Steam With Season 7

As well as all this, the Season 7 update brought with it the new Legend Horizon, a Club system, and a load of changes to the way the battle pass works - not good changes, unfortunately, because now it’s even grindier than it was before. The new map is a big abandoned futuristic city that, honestly, is a bit tedious to run around. It’s clearly designed with the Tridents in mind - they’re the quickest and most fun way to get from place to place....

Asus Tuf Dash F15 2021 Gaming Laptop Review

This gives the TUF Dash F15 an important leg up over other RTX 30 laptops at the moment, as most Intel systems have settled for one of their older 10th Gen CPUs, like the Aorus 15G, or jumped ship entirely and gone with one of AMD’s new Ryzen 5000 chips, like the Scar 15. This is because Intel haven’t actually released their full suite of 11th Gen H-series chips yet, which means there aren’t any direct replacements for CPUs like their popular Core i7-10750H....

Along with the bog standard suit cards, there’s another two types of rules cards to muck about with. The first are verb cards, but there’s only one of those and that’s Is. Then you’ve got four quality cards: On Any, Any Suit, Opposite, and +5.

Back 4 Blood Is Still In The Works

In a new post, Turtle Rock say “we wanted to give you a sneak peek and a bit of Hope,” presumably meaning, yes, that very fortified-looking base bearing the same name. For now, there’s nothing more concrete than a sun-dappled Hope on a hillside flying a United States flag. As for what we knew already, they divulged only a few details last year. “You’ll be able to shoot up a lot of zombies like in Left 4 Dead, but there’s a whole lot of new stuff in Back 4 Blood which makes it unique,” they said over a year ago when Back 4 Blood was announced....
