After more than a decade of successful collaboration across numerous titles that we’re both immensely proud of, Paradox Interactive and Colossal Order have mutually decided to pursue independent paths.

Today’s game is some more Assassin’s Creed III. After yesterday’s post, i went back to this game. I’m going to try and 100% this one like i did with Black Flag. I think my younger self would be proud. It shouldn’t be too much work, this was before Ubisoft’s “Here’s 800 chests and 300 side quests with the consistency of Sink Water” era so it should be way easier. The feathers are like the worst offender here.

Steam punk magical-realist world-building at its finest.

So maybe some of you have seen the recent ROM hack come out, by the developer of Pokémon Emerald Seaglass, called Pokémon Lazarus. This one has a far larger scale to everything, it’s quite clear that it is a massive undertaking for a sole dev, and most of the community is loving it.

Still being updated!

Today’s game is Halo Reach. And when i say Halo Reach, i mean the entire campaign on Heroic in one night. It was a fun experience. I’ve already talked tons about Reach before, so instead i wanted to do today as a little montage reel of moments with my friends from it instead. We redid our spartans for this and even made our own little lore for them off of the things we did in game.

The Splinter Cell franchise hasn’t seen a new entry since 2013, but Ubisoft reportedly had plans to bring the stealth series back only a few years ago.

Heart Machine’s next game is out now for PC and PS5.

Sony is begging you: please forget about concord

Today’s game is some more Assassin’s Creed III. I did the Brazil section today, and i noticed something. I’m sure like, everyone else noticed this before me but during Desmond’s segments there’s a lack of UI elements because he’s not in the Animus (except the notification indicators. It’d be cruel to not have those), I noticed this because i was stuck in this section fighting some guard’s and i was thinking to myself “Man, i wish i had Connor’s health display. Why doesn’t Desmond- ohhhhhh”.

Just a year after announcing the project, Deal Hall’s RocketWerkz is ready to bring its Kerbal Space Program spiritual successor Kitten Space Agency to the public with a pre-alpha release.

It’s early stages and buggy, but it’s on its way. All games, even bland, boring, or bad ones, deserve to remain playable.

In which Dispatch has a direct lineage to a Splinter Cell game that became XDefiant.

Free until December 2.

Today’s game is some more Assassin’s Creed 3. After finishing up the modern segment (which was surprisingly short) I headed down to the basement to look at the new costumes the Remaster Provided. They had them on racks that were there in the first game. It made me wonder if they removed costumes for the racks or they added more costumes. Just an interesting thing i got thinking about.

Just minutes before it was set to deliver its financial results for the first half of its 2025-26 fiscal year, Ubisoft mashed the brakes on the whole thing, postponing the release of its results to an unspecified future date. The company also requested that European exchange Euronext halt trading of the company’s shares and bonds from November 14 until the publication of its results.

Krafton, the publisher behind PUBG: Battlegrounds and the Subnautica franchise, has officially started its aforementioned transition to its future as an AI-first company. The first major move towards this future is a company-wide voluntary resignation program.

Even a 50 percent performance-per-watt improvement wouldn’t be enough, engineer says.

PC gamers can now claim three more games from the Epic Games Store. The latest offer lands with Zero Hour, Songs of Silence, and ScourgeBringer.

Today’s game is some more Assassin’s Creed III. I got to the first modern section. These sections make me wish we got more of them. I honestly wouldn’t mind a game fully in modern times. Though Watchdogs kind of felt like that.

Just saying

No prices yet. I may never financially recover from this.

You got games on your phone and on your TV.

Tariffs, component volatility, and Valve’s tolerance for losses all lead to uncertainty.

It’s not a digital foundry video, but this article talks about some of the differences. Bit disappointing that while the Switch 2 version is good as an upgrade compared to the Switch 1 (and the original games), it doesn’t even have 60FPS, nevermind 120.

Been an nvidia fan most of my life. But between Windows 10 EoL, and nvidia still gimping their GPUs ram it was time to move on. New 9070 xt. Figuring out optiscaler for fsr4 was an initial hurdle but now that everything is up and working initial impressions are great.

Following on from the success of the Steam Deck, Valve is creating its very own ecosystem of products. The Steam Frame, Steam Machine, and Steam Controller are all set to launch in the new year. We’ve tried each of them and here’s what you need to know about each one.

The new game is called Horizon Steel Frontiers.

Bejeweled is perhaps the brightest shining gem of casual PC gaming.

Today’s game is Max Payne 2. I did the fun house today. Made Mona shoot a flamingo. Surprisingly the game went by really fast tonight. It took me a total of 40 minutes to do the funhouse and then manor sections, which i think are a total of 3 levels. I forget how short these games can be once you kind of know what you’re doing. It almost makes me feel ballsy enough try another playthrough on the highest difficulty. Almost.

Also on Steam here.

Szabolcs Csépe played Dance Dance Revolution for six days to secure his place in the record books.

This seems like quite interesting game, kind of like combination of stalker and extraction shooters.

Consider people shouting in voice chat a feature. This game is designed to fuck with you. I think one needs some level of masochism to enjoy it.

Today’s game is some more Max Payne 2. I did the escort mission where you guide Vinnie around to safety, and man, i love this game but also fuck this mission. There’s like no way to heal him (at least that i know) so near the end he’s a glass cannon. But the decorative kind of cannon.

I wish the author every ounce of praise and success they deserve for this. I’ve never been happier to randomly find something so artistically raw and beautiful. Bought the art pack on their Patreon after a few hours in. Cannot wait for the OST.
