You might have noticed that we didn’t have a WRUP last week. That’s because I came back sick from my vacation.
You might have noticed that we didn’t have anything else on the site since last week. That’s because everyone else is dead as well. Or they are playing Deus Ex/No Man’s Sky/any of the other releases. Boy, what a year this has been so far. Thank god we already lost all of our audience at this point, otherwise I would be immensely stressed right now. Read more
Everyone’s still playing No Man’s Sky? Good, carry on then. Read more
Holy shit, I completely forgot that it’s Friday and I should post the WRUP. Well, No Man’s Sky is out on PC, I love it so far, but be warned: a lot of people currently experience strong performance issues, on both Platforms. Read more
This week has seen 2 remarkable releases on consoles and PC. First Headlander, the new game by Double Fine, Tim Schafer’s studio. Read more
Did you know that Twinstiq is currently doing another Game Club? Read more
Blizzard’s unlock system in Overwatch has its first victim: me. Why? Let me tell you a story. Read more
Look, a cute bunny! Read more
Ah-ah-ah-aha! Sorry, I can’t stop laughing about the Brits. Especially David Cameron, who really fucked himself for a change (yes, this is a Pig joke). And all the self-assured half-knowledge and stupidity that’s still going around, on both sides. I just can’t worry about any possible consequences right now, since it’s too funny a situation and things are too chaotic at the moment for any serious predictions anyway. I mean, they voted “Leave” without having any clue on what to do afterwards! AHAHAHA! They wanted a strong, independent United Kingdom and now it might dissolve itself completely! AHAHAHAHAH! Shit, games, right. Hey, if you live inside fortress Europe, you can import some cheap games from the UK right now, while the Pound is still weak. It’s like a Steam Sale for console games! Speaking of, there is an actual Steam Sale going on as well.
So, what’s everyone playing over the weekend? Read more
You probably didn’t notice, but somebody forgot to post a WRUP last week. Wasn’t me, I promise! Ok, maybe it was me. But nobody jumped in either, so don't blame me! Read more
As we all know by now, there are microtransactions in Overwatch. There was a bit of outrage about this fact, but that’s just a variation of rule 34: If it exists, there is outrage on the internet about it. In reality, those microtransactions are some of the fairest we’ve seen so far. They don’t give you power, they don’t feature any exclusive content at all and they offer so little value in return, that the incentive to buy them is near zero.
Doesn’t mean they are consumer friendly, dear TotalBiscuit, self-proclaimed defender of consumer-rights. Read more
