The beautiful canal city recently made its way to Overwatch in the form of Rialto, a new Escort map. Like the Venice of the real world, Rialto’s canals are filled with gondolas piloted by lovely striped-shirted gondoliers, though in Rialto’s case, the gondoliers are all omnics—the sentient robots of Overwatch’s world. Through some sort of bug, killing an Omnic gondolier seems to invisibly count as scoring an elimination. As such, stringing together a handful of kills is causing the game to award

Path to Mnemosyne is basically That Feeling: The Game. It’s a puzzle game built around a single vanishing point on a plane with infinite zoom, and it’s every bit as bizarre as that sounds. Developer DevilishGames describes Path to Mnemosyne’s art as “overwhelming,” and I have to agree. A puzzle game being set on a long, straight path might sound kind of contradictory—what’s there to figure out?—but Path to Mnemosyne builds some neat brain-teasers using its powerful perspective. DevilishGames say

The operators in the art are consistent with leaks uncovered in March which named them Maestro and Alibi. Also making it into the update from the last TTS are the buffs for the Echo’s Yokai drone. The issue of “dropshotting,” where players quickly go prone while aiming down sights, making them a tougher target without affecting their aim, will also be addressed in Para Bellum. The full reveal of Rainbow Six Siege: Operation Para Bellum will take place on May 19th and 20th during the Pro League F

Astoundingly, retro mashup 198X has packed almost all of those things into one game (no, there’s no pizza). Swedish developer Hi-Bit Studios describes 198X as an “arcade epic” and “a coming-of-age story told through multiple games and genres.” It stars Kid, a teenager who falls in love with the five games at his local arcade in Suburbia, all of which exist as separate, playable games within 198X. A 2D “ninja game” which looks more than a bit like Ninja Gaiden. Each game looks pretty cool on its

The zombie survival game State of Decay 2 has previously been given a release date, a technical test, and a pleasing degree of character complexity reflected and revealed in the struggles and relationships of its cast of survivors. Courtesy of the State of Decay 2 page on the Microsoft Store, it also now has some system requirements. There are an awful lot of bad zombie movies out there, so I will arbitrarily select one from my childhood called Shock Waves, a tale of underwater Nazi zombies, as

The GTX 1080 Ti, one of the best GPUs around, has an MSRP of $699, but with the rise of cryptocurrency mining, it has usually stayed around $900-1000 over the past few months. B&H has the EVGA GTX 1080 Ti SC for $769.99, not including the $20 mail-in rebate. This card has a base clock of 1556 MHz, with a boost of 1670 MHz. You also get all the standard 1080 Ti features, like 11GB GDDR5X VRAM and NVIDIA Ansel. The EVGA 1080 Ti SC is available from B&H here.

With that, following the release of GTA 3’s 10 Year Anniversary Edition, the developer put years of cut content speculation to bed. Given Grand Theft Auto 3 turns 17 this year, my first question to the team developing GTA3D is: Why? “The thing about GTA 3 is that it was the first ever Grand Theft Auto in real 3D,” team member Angelo, aka The Hero, tells me. Now in its fourth year of development, the GTA3D team hopes to launch its labour of love this year. Despite Angelo’s bruised ego, it’s disco

Some games are better played with a controller, and if you’re looking to buy one, our top pick is Sony’s PlayStation 4 DualShock 4. While normally a $60 controller, you can buy one today for $32. The DualShock 4 is on sale at Fry’s for $40. If purchased through Google Express, you can apply coupon code SPRING20 to knock 20 percent off your order, bringing it down to $32. The blue model lists for $65 instead of $60 like the other two, but is on sale for the same price.

The (hopefully) big Destiny 2 expansion Warmind is set to arrive tomorrow, and that means it’s finally time to kick back and take in the loud, blast-o-rama spectacle of the launch trailer. We’ve already seen a lot of what’s in here but there a glimpse of some new stuff too, including the new Spire of Stars raid lair and Worldline Zero, the first Exotic sword to appear in the sequel. The long-lost Guardian Ana Bray is back to guide us through this trip into the past, driven by Golden Age warsats

Currently, The Witchwood is arguably the least relevant set, and even more concerning is the continuing decline.” “After the HCT Playoffs at the end of May, Team 5 is planning some balance changes. The playoffs in question end on May 19, but these balance changes probably won’t arrive until June at the earliest. Ayala also listed the problem Standard cards and decks that Team 5 has discussed changing, with the stipulation that “we would not change all of these cards.” However, if some of the oth

Corsair has quietly added another mid-tower case to its lineup, one that’s rather easy on the wallet and, depending on your tastes, a bit stylish to boot. Angled lines and ventilation on the front the case give it a bit of character without going overboard on the design. There’s a large side window that looks like tempered glass, but is actually made of acrylic. Corsair likely opted for acrylic to keep costs down, though we’re starting to see tempered glass appear on lower priced cases. Corsair

There is no shortage of believers in Bitcoin and its underlying blockchain technology, but when it comes to investing in the cryptocurrency, billionaires Warren Buffett and Bill Gates both think it’s a bad idea. In the investment world, shorting is when you bet against an asset and make money if its value falls. [Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies] are kind of a pure ‘greater fool type of investment,” Gates added. Buffett also spoke negatively of Bitcoin, telling CNBC it’s “probably rat poison squared

That led a team of die-hard fans to launch an effort to bring Laidlaw’s vision to life in the form of Project Borealis, named after the ship at the center of Laidlaw’s story. “The writing team has taken the plot points outlined in Marc Laidlaw’s Epistle 3 and fleshed out the details and gameplay elements into a full and engaging script,” the Project Borelias team wrote. “Since finishing this first draft, the rest of the team have had the opportunity to give constructive feedback, and the writing

Every single one of Samsung’s 970 Pro and 970 Evo drives now carry a lower price tag. Samsung’s 970 Evo drives are now a little cheaper than WD’s lineup, and it’s 970 Pro has dipped below 960 Pro pricing on Amazon. The 970 Evo 500GB also matches the lowest price we’ve seen on the 960 Evo 500GB. “Samsung’s 970 Evo is a great drive, and it deserves consideration along with plenty of other good SSDs. That longer warranty, by the way, is five years (applies to both the 970 Pro and 970 Evo).

Fanatical’s May Madness sale is underway, and brings with it a selection of daily deals from now through May 20, 2018.

“Players have been clamouring for Alliance ships for a long time,” says Sammarco. There are instant wins in the fact it’s an Alliance ship, and a Lakon ship, which gives it a distinctive styling and lore. “Ships in Elite are more than the sum of their parts,” says Sammarco. We put a rough model in the game, then the designers play it and give us feedback on how it functions.”6. Final meshWhen the design is finished, the artists will create the final 3D model, which has to be highly precise.

After watching the mod in motion, I can’t help but think this is an understatement. Let’s have a gander:As can be seen there, Complex Control has a lot going on. It boasts 50 “unique and balanced” abilities with cool downs—such as blink teleporting and slow motion mechanics. Moreover, Complex Control has a four-rank level system which is reflected and tracked by a total career score. Here’s another look at Complex Control in practice:

After “more than a year of tweaks, improvements, and additions”, For Honor has revealed ‘Hero’s March’—Season Six of its history-bending battler. Due later this month, the new campaign brings with it a new map, a new seasonal event and “major gameplay reworks” for two of its characters. In all multiplayer modes bar Tribute, a new Beachhead map comes free-of-charge and tasks Vikings, Knights and Samurai with claiming and defending a fortress.

It’s been several years since anyone’s had a reason to think about Lost, the hit ABC TV series about a bunch of people stuck on a weird island. Much like Far Cry 5, it was an extraordinarily long and compelling experience with a really crap ending. The two obviously belong together, and now, finally, they are together: someone has made the Lost island in the Far Cry 5 map editor. “This is an accurate recreated map made in the Far Cry 5 Arcade Map Editor. The map ignores the so-called “canon” loc
