Wordle Is A Free Puzzle Game Covering The Internet In Little Squares

It really is simple. Wordle presents you with a blank grid of squares, into which you type letters. You’ve got six guesses to get the word. Personally I like to begin with what I call “the farts gambit”, and always use FARTS as my first word. It helps to find, or rule out, a common vowel and some of the most common consonants. If a letter in a word you enter contains a correct letter, it turns yellow....

World Of Warcraft Shadowlands Dives Into The Afterlife Next Month

To get us all prepared for a trip out of mortality, Blizzard have released a new story trailer for the sinister expansion. Truly, I have no idea what is going on in Azeroth these days. While originally planned to launch back on Tuesday, Blizzard delayed Shadowlands last month - citing a need for polish, balance, and to tighten up some interlocking systems. Today, executive producer John Hight returned with a message explaining that they’re on track with those changes, believing the team can get the game on shelves by November 23rd....

Xbox Game Pass For Pc Is Getting Even More Games This Month

Undertale, the dark and funny RPG that we think is one of the best RPGs on PC, already hopped on to the service yesterday. Another excellent RPG, Nier: Automata, comes to Game Pass tomorrow, March 18th. In RPS’s Nier: Automata review, Adam Smith (RPS in pieces) says “I went into Automata expecting weird and came out the other side impressed by how sad, beautiful and strange a game that stars a sexy android can be....

Xcom 2 Is Free To Keep On The Epic Games Store

Hit the Epic Games Store before 4pm on Thursday the 21st and you can grab these two free for keepsies. XCOM 2 is good. It is. Fun stuff. Really. Adam’s XCOM 2 review in 2016 called it “a classic in its own right and as good a sequel as I can remember.” But I’m being a little reserved because oh goodness me it is so, so, so much better with its expansion, War Of The Chosen, which isn’t included in the freebie....

You Can Play A New Demo Of The System Shock Remake Right Now

A Kickstarter update lays out some of the new content in the demo versus the one released in May last year. They’re substantial, including a cyberspace level, the ability to save, adjustable difficulty, and voice acting for SHODAN, the game’s beloved villainous AI you can hear in the trailer above. The demo is available from Steam, GOG and Epic. Nightdive have had a bumpy time in developing the System Shock remake, as the project initially grew in ambition and ended up being rebooted....

10 Games With Brilliant Zombie Apocalypses

Just a few zombies are never enough, and ideally you want a proper, full-on zombie apocalypse – or, at least, a Resident Evil style outbreak – if you’re going to have fun with the concept in any game starring the walking dead. Zombies are at their best when they’re a heaving, shambling mass, their groans merging together like the resonating frequency of death itself, hungry for the life they can never have again....

2K Have Removed Four Wwe Games From Steam

I haven’t played a wrestling game since 2002’s fair to middling WWE Wrestlemania X8 on the GameCube, so I can’t say I immediately noticed the absence of WWE 2K20, 2K19, 2K18 and 2K17 from Valve’s storefront. Redditor Popstasia eventually did though, and posted their findings to the pcgaming subreddit. You can see the desolation on Steam for yourself here. The removal of the WWE games from sale seems to have taken place on July 14th, which maps with data from Steam Tracker....

3 Out Of 10 Is A Free Playable Games Industry Sitcom

Going from hyper-arcadey shooters to an animated series is a hell of a jump for Terrible Posture, mind. You can decide for yourself whether it’s paid off with a peep at 3 Out Of 10’s reveal trailer. As a gamedev team writing a satirical gamedev show, Terrible Posture promise a “loving, satirical look at game development”, with gaffs going from mobbish fans to awkward pitch meetings. Sequences shift from conversational, story-driven moments into more freeform exploration of the studio, dipping into minigames whenever the first episode’s protagonist (new hire Midge) helps out around the office....

A Blindfolded Speedrunner Beat Sekiro In Two Hours

I enjoyed coming to realise how Mitchriz was playing. The foundation is memorisation, remembering level layouts and placements of enemies and items and such. This is augmented with hearing, picking up clues to his exact position from the noises made by things like pick-ups and long grass, striking with his sword to feel out walls, and telling what enemies are doing from their noises. Throw it all together and it’s hella impressive....

Activision Blizzard Brag About Weird Diversity Tool Quickly Walk It Back After Backlash

Yesterday, Activison Blizzard responded, saying that the “prototype is not being used in active game development”, and was designed as an optional supplement to other work. Desigend by King alongside the MIT Game Lab, the tool - as described by Activision Blizzard - allows designers to weigh their character designs against a set of diversity guidelines. These guidelines consider gender, body type, character role, pose, body movement, and aims to differentiate between “token characters and true representation....

Activision Blizzard Hit With Another Unfair Labour Charge From Cwa

Meservey sent the message ahead of the Blizzard-Albany QA staff’s union election on October 27th. In her message, Meservey states the company “fully supports the employees’ right to choose how they want to be represented.” But, she continues, “we disagree that a handful of employees should get to decide for everyone else on the future of the entire Albany-based Diablo team.” Meservey went on to say that “We think a direct dialogue between company and employees is the most productive route,” and that “We feel collective bargaining is comparatively slow,” pointing to Raven’s QA testers who successfully unionised in April: “There have only been three bargaining sessions since the union was certified almost 6 months ago....

Add Hill House And The Bates Motel To The Sims 4 For Halloween

At the same time, I have been pootling around in The Sims 4, restlessly starting and canning new builds in a fit of pique. But then I realised that my two interests can be combined: I can indulge in some classic horror, play a game at the same time, and I don’t even have to do any work because other Sims builders have already done it! That’s my favourite kind of work!...

Aeon Must Die S Debut Is Wracked By Allegations Of Abuse Theft

Shortly after Sony debuted Aeon Must Die’s announcement, another trailer popped up on YouTube claiming to share the “truth” on the game’s apparently troubled development (cheers, USGamer). The description for the alternate cut claims the trailer was “created with abuse, manipulation, theft”, and suggests that many developers behind its creation are no longer with the company - many of them unpaid for their work. The biggest cue, however, is a link to a Dropbox repository containing a wealth of documentation: personal testaments, recordings, and emails coming together to paint a picture of “unbearable work conditions with endless crunch, harassment, abuse, corruption, and manipulation....

Age Of Empires 3 Definitive Edition Beta Starts Next Month

For the multiplayer sessions starting next month, the Age Of Empires team say player counts will be limited. “Our plan is to ramp up by first including fans of the original Age III, so the February session will include a limited number of invitations,” they say. Larger sessions will begin the following month in March. Players will also get the chance to give feedback on Age 3’s campaign, though they say those sessions will be limited to a “very small” group of players and only certain missions....

Aliens Fireteam Elite S Second Season Adds New Mode This Month

Point Defence will be an alternative to your usual Horde Mode shenanigans, where your fireteam needs to protect and repair three points while aliens come at you in waves. This seems more in-line with what we see in the films. You know, folks desperately trying to fix something while their pals are screaming and being eaten? That’s the stuff. Developers Cold Iron Studios don’t mention exactly what the new weapons are, but you can see them in the announcement pic below....

Amd Announced The First Radeon Rx 7000 Gpus At Rtx 4080 Beating Prices

They’re also structurally distinct from the current Radeon RX 6000 cards to an extent that, frankly, is quite surprising to see from AMD GPUs. RDNA 3 uses a Ryzen CPU-inspired chiplet design, where the GPU is split up into different sections, and the new media engine is engineered for the 4K gaming monitors of the future as much as it is for current PC hardware. How exactly these two cards will perform in games remains to be (reliably) seen, though AMD also announced a helping hand in FSR 3....

Amd S Powerful Ryzen 5700X Cpu Is Down To 190 At Ebay

Get the Ryzen 7 5700X for $190 (was $300) So what exactly is the difference between the 5700X, which remains un-reviewed by RPS, and the 5800X, which has had a full work-up? The answer is… not much. Both CPUs have the same number of cores and threads, the same cache and even the same box. The difference is that the 5700X runs a tad slower, with a base frequency of 3....
