Another free add-on WAD Although my first foray into first-person shooters wasCatacomb 3-D,DoomandDuke Nukem‘s stages are forever burned in my brain. That’s partly why I sought out crazy fanmade mods (WADs) by any means necessary, including picking up some crazy level collections at flea markets. I had to have more! Now, it’s a hell of a lot easier to snag some levels due to the proliferation of fan communities across the internet, but Bethesda is also steadily adding free stages to modern ports of classicDoom....

Ever need a game on all the things? Ever since I got a new gaming laptop and a Nintendo Switch, I’ve found some of my PS4 and Vita games migrating to them. This isn’t an entirely bad thing, as it frees up storage on my PlayStation platforms, (where storage is often tight anyway), but some of it just boils down to the fact that I want a lot of my favorite games on more portable platforms....

Anime-inspired MMOs are rare, and this one fills a unique niche. The new version is a clear improvement compared to the original....

The more Switch games on Steam the merrier Marvelous is bringing its Nintendo Switch mech gameDaemon X Machinato Steam on July 06, 2025, and that’s definitely not a sentence I expected to write this morning. Get it, Marvelous! It’s cool to see another Nintendo-published game make its way to PC afterOctopath Traveler. The PC port ofDaemon X Machinais skipping “some licensed DLC,” but everythingelse –“including new Arsenal gear, cosmetic options, Colossal Immortal battles, and a co-op Exploration Mission mode”–made the cut for Steam....

The map was originally announced to be 4×4 km in size, for context. But in the interview Greene gave an update regarding that and had this to say:“For 100 players an 8×8 just makes more sense and it gives more flexibility when we move onto custom games and things like that....

Did someone order more damage? Every ARPG has its own unique systems to allow you to build your character how you want. WithDiablo 4, several of these new systems can be quite overwhelming with little to no information available in-game as to how they work. One such mechanic in is Overpower. While there is an in-game tooltip with some information on how this effect works, it can be a bit confusing based on the wording....

Released back in 1984,Tube Panicis not dissimilar to Atari’s 1981 releaseTempest, and sees the player rotate around the circumference of a metal tube, firing “into” the screen at waves of UFO’s and pseudo-TIE Fighters that mercilessly barrel toward our hero....
