    Have you played... Tales from the Borderlands?

    I'm not the biggest fan of Borderlands (there I said it) but I loved Telltale's games The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us. And so I wasn't sure how much I'd enjoy the mashup of the two in Tales from the Borderlands - that is until I played it. Yes you could challenge how much of a "game" it...

    Which Multi-player game (& community) would you resurrect if you could?

    The other day I tried out the For Honor closed beta despite all its new shininess it made me feel like playing Chivalry Medieval Warfare again. I reinstalled Chivalry even though I was doubtful any one local would be still playing it. There was a SA server at least, but it was empty. Still...

    Have you ever made your own level/map?

    I was thinking back to the days when RTS was the reigning PC king and many of them came with Map editors (Starcraft, Age of Empries). Did you ever try your hand at making a map? I remember making my own mini campaign in Age of Empires 2 - figuring out triggers on the map and writing bits of...

    [MyGame] Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

    I was lucky enough to get two of my uncle's old monitors when they emigrated so I decided to give Eyefinity a go with this game. It actually works pretty well!

    [MyGame] Psychonauts

    Solitude Jan Woohoo! I completed the game. Wasn't sure if I'd be able to fit in a bit of gaming before the end of the month but I managed to do it. Took a screenshot when I got the achievement for beating the game: And the achievement: :D

    What 'optimization' really means in games

    In my opinion every PC gamer should read Durante's articles. Once again he has written an informative and insightful article: What 'optimization' really means in games If you have any interest in the "science" behind games, I'd definitely encourage to have a read through.

    Getting a new Mouse, your thoughts?

    So I recently returned my Steelseries Sensei [RAW] Frost Blue under warranty because of an issue with the scroll wheel. Aside from the scrolling issue I was pretty happy with the mouse and the Steelseries software is easy to use and efficient. I received credit from Takealot for the return but...

    These days I have quite an appreciation for shorter games since they are easier to squeeze in, and even with limited play time it doesn't take weeks to finish. Here's a cool list of decent short games to consider: The best short games on PC Any more you can think of?

    [MyGame] Psychonauts

    Sometimes this game can be really weird: Busy with the Theatre - finding it a bit annoying though, there's only so much "bad acting" you can take before the joke wears thin.

    [MyGame] Psychonauts

    So I've only played a bit of the game so far - just finished basic training and was on the way to "advanced training" when I went the wrong way and jumped down a hollowed out tree stump to find myself here: I also found out that turning off V-sync causes a bug where you can't raise a flag :(...

    "GG (not so) EZ" - Game Trolls

    I'm sure you've had it before - after a hard fought, well balanced multiplayer match you unfortunately lose the game. Most of comments come in: "gg" (Good Game) and then some troll puts in an extra 2 letters "gg ez" (American: ee zee) More often it comes after you had a terrible game and the...

    [MyGame] Psychonauts

    Cool, I'll download in readiness. I've only ever played the demo of the game many years ago so I'm keen to play the full game. It's a "relatively" short game in comparison to Dark Souls and Borderlands 2 so maybe we can have a new MyGame in October if most manage to finish the game before...

    What eSports do you watch?

    I've recently been watching the Eleague CS:GO tournament on DSTV and really enjoyed it. Partly this is because I've got back into playing the game with some friends. Prior to this I haven't had too much interest in watching eSports but now I'm definitely going to be watching some more pro CS:GO...
