You’ll never walk alone While reviewingCities Colon Skylines 2, I didn’t actually go in that hard on public transport (beyond providing it and making it free), despite the urge. Since then though, it’s become a game where I don’t so much build a single mega-city as a series of experiments. Naturally, those experiments devolved from a noble effort to remove the stain of cars into a sadistic urge to drive thousands of my own people on a never-ending hell march....

Update: Konami say it’s based on a misinterpretation Bloober Team and Konami’s forthcomingSilent Hill 2 remakewill feature a playable origin story for Pyramid Head, according to a Best Buy listing. Specifically it says “fan favourite character, Pyramid Head, makes a return along with a special origin story for fans to play through.” That’s pretty much all she wrote, where the much vaunted “news-reporting” aspect of this news article is concerned. Now to spend several hundred words whining about why this is probably a terrible idea....

How Crytek navigate the “religious wars” between players over their shooter’s direction Thus the fate of any competitive shooter lucky enough to acquire a seasoned pro following, I guess. But still, returning to Crytek’s PvPvE shooter has been a shock, and speaking to the development team, it sounds like the devs themselves have been struggling to keep up with the more ambitious players, too. Showdown was never expected to endure quite this long and evolve in quite this way, according to general manager David Fifield, and managing the community’s ambitions for the game is as much of a challenge as compensating for the limitations of its ageing engine....

Demolition derby Mad dashes, daring escapes, last minute reversals: these are some of my favourite moments in multiplayer shooters. It’s exhilarating to scream towards the chopper inLeft 4 Deador a dropship inTitanfall. The Finalsis a multiplayer shooter that seems to take place entirely at this elevated pitch. In the dozens of open beta matches I’ve played, the result is as thrilling as those other games, but also exhausting. I wish it would chill for just a moment so I could fully enjoy its delights - of which there are many....
