I tried out Grime via its free demo (which is still available on the Steam page!) and it was a very pleasant bit of metroidvania-ing - I say pleasant, I mean it was dark and foreboding, but in a good kind of way. When you start, you’re plopped into a cave system with nothing but your rockin’ bod and black hole noggin to see you through. As you travel through the gloom, you can fight creatures by performing a well-timed parry, which absorbs a bit of their essence, allowing you to heal, and also gain a certain stat from them when you level up....

The reason why the Zowie XL2546K costs almost twice as much as the AOC is likely down to BenQ’s DyAc+ technology. This is a special kind of anti-motion blur feature that supposedly reduces in-game screen shake and improves gun recoil control in FPS games when you’re running games above 100Hz, making enemies and other players look sharper and more defined when moving at high speed. The idea is to help you in the business of gunning them down instead of aiming at their ghostly mirage caused by your screen’s inherent motion blur....

Best Model 680 loadout in Warzone Here’s the best Model 680 loadout in Warzone: Muzzle: FORGE TAC Marauder Barrel: XRK 18.0" Liberator Laser: 5mW Laser Stock: No Stock Ammo: Dragon’s Breath Rounds The Model 680 is best known for its damage, but suffers from two primary weaknesses. While little can be done to compensate for the underwhelming fire rate, the effective range can be improved upon. Attach the Forge TAC Marauder and the XRK 18....

Below we’ll walk you through two contenders for the best Outriders Legendary farm that we’ve found so far, and exactly how to go about farming those Legendaries so you can perfect your character’s loadout.

We’ve put together some suggestions if you’re stuck though. Here’s the best rulers to pick at the start of CK3, in both 867 and 1066. Starting characters for 867 Sultan Yahya II ibn Yahya of the Idrisid Sultanate Sultan Yahya starts with a lovely chunk of land in North Africa, and will often begin games with a lovely high Diplomacy stat. It’s random each time, but he’s likely to be pretty good with the ol’ foreign affairs....

Below, we’ll break down the best Vaznev-9K build, covering the most important attachments that boost range, control, and accuracy. We’ll also suggest the ideal secondary weapon, Perks, and Equipment to use in your Vaznev-9K class setup. Best Warzone 2 Vaznev-9K loadout build attachments Since Al Mazrah is far more open than any multiplayer map, extending that range and improving the accuracy of the Vaznev-9K are incredibly important for your survival in Warzone 2....

There’s three games worth of weapons now, so there’s a lot to learn. Thankfully, we’re here to help by guiding you through several contenders for the best loadout in Warzone. Best Warzone loadout and class setups Here are the very best Warzone loadout and class setups in Warzone Caldera: Automaton and M1912 STG 44 and Kar98k NZ-41 and MP40 EM2 and OTs 9 Grav and Tec-9 QBZ and MP5 Kar98k and AK-47 Stoner 63 and MAC-10 Swiss K31 and AK74u Bruen and PPSh M4A1 and Kar98k PKM and Bullfrog ZRG and FARA 83 Grau and MP7 C58 and Tec-9 LW3 Tundra and XM4...

Is that Pitbull there as CIA agent Jason Hudson? Timber! The Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War singleplayer campaign is led by Raven Software, and is a direct sequel to the first Cod Blops. The series went off to the future for some increasingly weird games, but now it’s back where it started. Along with choices that can alter the ending, a Washington Post preview revealed it has a weird ‘progressive’ option in character creation to pick a gender of “classified” and be referred to with them/they pronouns....

While Call Of Duty: Vanguard has received a few new guns since launch, none of them are Marksman Rifles. If a future season does bring new weapons in this class, we’ll update this list to let you know how they fit into the current meta. Make sure to check back regularly as new patches are deployed to see how the meta shifts and whether our Marksman Rifle list changes....

This quick guide will give you the answers to both these questions, with release times for various timezones, and download sizes across all platforms - including the optional high resolution assets pack for PC players. Call Of Duty: Vanguard release time Call Of Duty: Vanguard releases on Friday 5th November, but the exact release time depends on the platform you’re planning to play the game on. Here’s what you need to know:...

We’re talking it’s diabolical ammo count. You’ll only get a measly 25 bullets in the extended mags. Sure, it has a fairly high damage output, but when the likes of the Grau and the M4A1 have more than double its capacity…Well, why bother? Well, the SCAR isn’t absolutely terrible. Its ironsights are generous, it’s fairly easy to handle with the right attachments and it can certainly dole out big damage....

Below, we’ll cover everything you need to know about chemical areas in Dying Light 2, so that you know whether you can get past this toxic gas and survive. Can you enter chemical areas in Dying Light 2? You cannot usually enter chemical areas in Dying Light 2. Fortunately, you won’t find many chemical areas while you explore the main city, so they shouldn’t get in the way of any lovely parkour flow that you’re enjoying....

Can you save in Far Cry 6? It is not possible to manually save your game in Far Cry 6. All saving is done through autosaves, and the game chooses when to autosave. It appears to autosave whenever you’re approaching or entering a new location of the map, such as an Anti-Aircraft Site, along with certain story and mission beats. Theoretically, you’ll know when an autosave has occurred by the small white icon that appears briefly in the top-right of your screen: However, from my experience, this doesn’t always appear to be entirely accurate....

“Long ago, in the distant reaches of Land’s End, an unforeseen rainfall transformed all living things into frenzied undead monstrosities known as the Blighted,” say the creators. “Faced with a calamity far beyond their understanding, the kingdom fell into ruin with no end to the accursed rain in sight.” Ender Lilies begins with one tiny white dress clad young girl named Lily who’s capable of purifying the blighted folks, which you can catch down here in the launch trailer....

The K95 Platinum XT still comes with the same Cherry MX mechanical switches, 19-zone LightEdge RGB lighting and brushed aluminium frame as the regular K95 Platinum, but the XT lets you program custom streaming commands onto its dedicated macro keys using Elgato’s Stream Deck software. It also comes with an alternate set of blue S-key keycaps for said macro keys, making it easier to see at a glance, and a detachable leatherette palm rest....

One of their latest vids is about an AI someone’s managed to trick into being really good at generating realistic basketball movements from a tiny amount of data. I don’t understand how, but I don’t particularly want or need to. This man just wrapped up his vid by whooping “what a time to be alive”, and you know what? It is. Like I say, the actual tech is still mostly a mystery to me....

I’m nowhere near the end yet, but from what I’ve played so far, Chrono Cross is a rollicking good time. There are dozens of characters to meet and recruit to your party that can tangibly change your path through the story, the turn-based battle system offers oodles of depth and variety, and Yasunori Mitsuda’s revamped score is right up there with the Final Fantasy greats. For all its buff and polish, though, Chrono Cross has, sadly, also been struck by the same curse as other Square Enix PC ports....

There is nothing particularly remarkable about what you actually do during this five-odd minute climb. You are literally just going round and round a seemingly never-ending staircase. But the genius of this scene is in the music, the dialogue and Tifa absolutely legging it up this Everestian feat while you and Barret chug along behind. It starts out like any other scene in Final Fantasy VII Remake. You think, sure, I’ll just knock in R3 and breeze up this beast no problem....

So it is with Outpost, a first-person base-builder with seemingly massive swarms that impressed during the Future Games Show. How does it look in the 8 minutes of playtest footage below? Less impressive - but still compelling. In fairness, just like the working title, the video above makes clear that it’s using placeholder assets throughout. That’s reason enough to withhold judgement from its slightly damp shooting, and the seemingly harmless shuffling of its enemies....

(Colonel Croesus is an open-to-all game of Combat Mission: Fortress Italy in which Allied forces are orchestrated by commenters while German units are computer controlled. Each daily turn covers one minute of WeGo action. For a scenario outline and accounts of earlier turns, click here). It’s the penultimate turn. What’s left of Colonel Croesus’ victimless crime syndicate is now so close to the twice-stolen gold bullion, they can smell it (for those who’ve never been in close proximity to large quantities of Au, burnt sugar and damp ferrets are the dominant notes)....
