It's pretty much gambling, and hence the appeal of winning big often tempts us. Have you ever opened an in-game case which required you to buy a key? Did you win big? Or like most of us immediately regret your decision? I opened a CSGO case once, and that one time was enough for me to come to...

There are 2 types of people who play Elder Scrolls games - those who install hot babe mods and then everyone else who plays in first person mode :p Jokes aside - how do you play Elder Scrolls games? I've always preferred to play in the FPP. What is your preference when a game offers you a...

Are there any game trailers that were so good and memorable they made you want to get the game? Any trailers that remain memorable just because they were so amazing or well put together? One of my favourite, recent trailers is for Factorio. The trailer brilliantly shows off all the intricacies...

This game... was going to play for an hour, landed up playing for 2.5hrs. Although I never finished the original Deus Ex, I played a fair bit of it (especially the demo which had the first mission), this game is definitely true to the original in many ways. Managed to ghost the first mission...

I downloaded Solitairica on my phone the other day and I've found it to be really enjoyable. The game adds some nice RPG and strategic elements to the basic solitaire formula and your opponents are interesting an fun to play against, sometimes requiring a shift in your strategy. You can...

Got my first chicken dinner! :D

It's tucked away fairly unobtrusively but Steam has quite a catalogue of free and paid movies and series available on it. There's not really any mainstrean stuff but some of it looks quite interesting. The short films from Oats Studios look quite good. I haven't had a chance to check them out...

The Razer Synapse app has a cool stats feature that records your keystrokes and mouse movement:

So I finally decided to hop on this bandwagon after watching some streams of it. I was hesitant because of some of the resemblence it bears to DayZ which I found incredibly dull but this is a lot faster paced and, crucially, a lot more fun. My first few rounds got me questioning is this was...

Game Sessions is a company and platform that is trying to bring back game demos in a certain manner. So it's basically a time limited trial of the full game, much the same as the trials that Origin offers. Unlike a Steam "free weekend" the time limit applies to game time, although it's not...

I've noticed this annoying trend with online retailers telling us to shop stuff - apparently we don't buy things anymore. My personal bias aside, this whole thing of using nouns as verbs is apparently quite a common feature in English language and has been for many years. I found this article to...

PC Gamer posted this article yesterday which covers some of the helpful websites, extensions and utilities that you can use in conjunction with Steam. I've used Enhanced Steam and How long to beat before but I'm keen to try out: And Also this looks like a helpful one for playing with friends

Bundle Stars is having another comp where you can win some Steam wallet funds (which could help with some sale purchases). Also if you do a few follow/likes etc. you can get an extra 5% off voucher to use with the Bundle Stars sale. If you are keen on entering, I would appreciate it if you use...

And so the latest Steam sale is nearly upon us. That of course means that there is a new Steam Sale video doing the rounds: Are you ready for the sale? Have you built up some wallet funds? What are you hoping to get? Maybe once the sale has started we can use this thread to post any good...

Looks like IO-Interactive are opening up the first level of Hitman as a demo of sorts so people can try out the game: LINK The free trial is available on the consoles and on Steam I'm definitely keen to give this a go.

What game or genre of games would you like to get into if you had the time to invest in it? Crusader Kings 2, and more specifically the Game of Thrones mod for CK2 has always interested me - I even have the game in my Steam library, just not the time to really get to grips with the game...

This is quite a fun little game that has actually now come quite a way from its humble beginnings. It certainly captures that old Battlefield feel along with the zany antics, and the red/blue block person style is pretty cool with some nice ragdoll animations. The game started off and is...
