More free games! This time, it's a couple of Tomb Raider games that are on offer, so you can spend your time at home raiding and adventuring. The first is 2013's Tomb Raider reboot, which didn't have that much tomb raiding but was an enjoyable action-adventure regardless. The second is Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, the sequel to isometric ...
We're in the middle of the Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition now, and there's dozens of free demos to play. I like the word "free", as well as the idea of trying out upcoming games in a virtual event space, so I had a go with about 15 demos, which is just a small slice of what you can try. I didn't like everything I played, naturally, but I ende...
Social distancing is vital in flattening the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic, but being stuck at home for ages can also get really boring.

The action-RPG offers a massi...

A week ago, the Overwatch League said that they would be cancelling some events but continue with their March matches. That's no longer the case. In a brief statement, the Overwatch League announced that those matches would be postponed.

I don't usually play survival games.I've played and enjoyed shooters with survival elements, like Metro: Last Light and Stalker: Call of Pripyat. But if it's a full-on survival game with resource-gathering, crafting, constantly-draining meters, and (shudders) other people, I tend to stay clear. It's why I'm not writing this as a scored review. ...
3D isn't always better than 2D. After releasing in the West in 2018, and in South Korea in 2015, MapleStory 2 is shutting down on May 27.

I think they're just delivery sockets ...

An evolutionary robot programmed with a rapidl...
While we all need some escapism and good news in the time of Covid-19, there are also times where they need to take a backseat.
