PLAYERUNKNOWN’s Battlegrounds Could Get A Campaign

PLAYERUNKNOWN's Battlegrounds has taken the world by storm, even though the game is still in early access over on Steam its amazing at the popularity of the game.

Lore is important for creating it, but we don't have any serious lore there... if we were going to do a single-player campaign then maybe the history of the island would come into it, Originally I thought, because we have this Russian island and there's evidence of a military occupation there, it'd be fun to have a Watch Dogs kind of game based on the island. Where it's a bustling island with military occupation and you and five or four friends can play a single kind of multiplayer campaign set ...

DiRT 4 Gets A New Rallycross Trailer

DiRT 4 saw a new trailer drop this week, and this time showcasing the Rallycross feature in the game. Rallycross if you weren't aware is thrilling multicar, circuit racing on mixed surfaces made up of both dirt and asphalt.

DLC – Dirty Lying Cheats, The Good The Bad

Ok, just a quick rant about DLC and how it has shaped the way we buy games these days. First off, DLC actually stands for Downloadable Content, not the title above...but this is how people feel about the companies that bring out this DLC.

So onto the first one FREE DLC!!! WOOO!! everyone loves something that is free right? Well, not when it comes at the expense of an incomplete game. For example, Rory McIlroys PGA Tour Golf by Electronic Arts, this was meant to be the game that brought back the PGA tour franchise, however, it got released with so small courses and players, even ...
