Despite missing it at launch in 2020, I’m in the “Ghostrunnerrocks” camp. It knew exactly what it wanted to be and executed its premise brilliantly. I wasn’t sure what to make ofGhostrunner 2but was excited to playthe demo. As much as I enjoyed the first game, I bought it on a deep sale and considered giving the sequel a similar treatment. I hadn’t watched anytrailers, and not for a lack of interest....

Character progression inHogwarts Legacy… Similar to most other RPG games,Hogwarts Legacyincorporates a character leveling system as one of its many foundational features. Players aiming to progress throughthe gamewill need to pay close attention to their character’s leveling progress, as some of the content present throughout the game is dependent on the prerequisite of the player being a certain level or higher. This can include gear aimed to increase the player’s offensive and/or defensive capabilities, as well as certain story quests, side quests, andunlockable spells....
Half-Life 2‘s Source engine may well be one of the most reliably satisfying pieces of technology in the modern gaming world. It gave us gravity guns, zombie hordes, portal physics — and now, of all things, a stargazing simulator. Polaris, the first episode of what will ostensibly be a series of Source-based artgames, is unlike anything I’ve ever seen done with Valve’s little engine that could. In it, you play an unnamed man or woman on what the liner notes describe as “what could totally be both the lamest and the cheapest date ever....

RIP? Final Fantasy XVwas known as the game that would never die: until it did. Following the shocking news late last year that the heart and soul of the project director Hajima Tabata was exiting Square Enix, the whole idea of extended DLC forXVjust stopped. We probably would have gotten DLC through 2020 if Tabata and Square Enix had their way, but with the boss man gone they basically shut off all the lights outside of the upcoming “Episode Ardyn” DLC, which was seemingly mostly finished and even had an anime prologue....
Max Payne 3is out tomorrow for the PC, and with the release comes the launch trailer showing off just how sexy the game looks on PC.

We’re about to reach the end of Rick’s journey with the Terror Mask to rescue the lovely (and seemingly dirty) Jennifer from the clutches of a desperate (and inexplicably old) Dr. Henry West. It’s been a blood-soaked orgy of destruction up to this point and I’m not expecting anything else from the climax. Come tune in right now to watch me bring a conclusion toSplatterhouse. After we’re done, I’ll be playing some classicSplatterhouse 3for the remainder of the show, which is also excited....

It’s not all quiet on the western front As it has been distracting some of you with trading cards, Valve has also been making a bid for complete dominance of the western world. Last year, it opened up a little European office in Luxembourg. Said small studio focuses on Steam and its development partners,according to Develop, but, if it proves successful, it “could eventually be expanded into a fully-fledged development team....
