    Report: Red Dead Redemption Remastered Coming to PC, PS4

    It likely had more to do with the version of the Rage engine the game used. As I'm sure we all remember, GTA IV already had significant problems with the PC port and RDR was using the exact same version of the engine (with improvements). Max Payne 3 required an almost complete rebuild of the...

    Report: Red Dead Redemption Remastered Coming to PC, PS4

    Screenshots or it didn't happen. There have been dozens of "reports" of a remaster for this game, all unsubstantiated.

    NASA Founds The Official Planetary Defense Office

    Picard would have been the worst. For some reason it's the one piece of physics the show's writers could never wrap their heads round. I remember one episode where a damaged toxic waste ship was about to crash into a planet, the Enterprise crew decide to fry their warp engines to tow it all the...

    Get Out of Your Comfort Zone for 2016

    This is among the best EPs you've ever done. I'm not even sure it's about finance, it's about 'lazy ambition' of developers who want all the acclaim but none of the effort. Steam Greenlight has shown us over the last year that indie devs suffer the same lack of imagination as AAA powerhouses.

    Game Breaking Fallout 4 Bug Reported

    I was just there. Perhaps this should say "intermittent bug" instead.

    Was just about to post the same thing.

    Kerbal Space Program to Finally Blast Off From Early Acess

    As much as I love KSP, I don't think it's in a state where they should declare it "released". It still has far too many issues that should not be accepted in a released game: You can't remove Kerbals who have died or it will corrupt your save, you can't use 64 bit without major instability...

    What Makes the Technology in Grand Theft Auto V So Great

    LoD is becoming the real sticking point in open-world games for me. With improving resolution and draw distances, distant objects still look *really* terrible. Even in the recent PC screenshots of GTA V, the distant buildings look muddy and horrible. There just hasn't been any advance in the...

    What's a sequel that isn't made yet that you would like to see?

    Assassin's Creed. Come on Ubisoft, what are you holding out for?

    Heavy Rain Dev Calls L.A. Noire's MotionScan Tech a "Dead End"

    So I finally got round to playing Beyond: The Ellen Page Variety Hour and.... the bodies in both games move like a punch and judy puppet show but LA Noire's facial animations are 20x better.

    Games that penalize you for playing a certain way

    The Elder Scrolls online penalises you for trying to play it like an Elder Scrolls game. I remember one of the missions in Daggerfall asks you to sneak into someone's house to steal a trinket, but because it's an early area there are 20 other people in that house jumping around like twats. It's...

    Weird question: PC gamers, is your keyboard slanted or flat?

    I have a low profile keyboard so the legs are at quite a sharp angle. The top of my keyboard is less than a centimetre off the desk.

    Poll: Question for all the Mass Effect players out there

    I would go with engineer. The barriers and shields can be a real pain on insanity.

    Poll: Question for all the Mass Effect players out there

    I've played a male Shepard who kinda looked like Ben Kingsley but I find Femshep to be a more interesting, nuanced character. Male Shepard just grumbles a lot.

    BBC Exec Wants a Woman to Play Lead in Doctor Who

    Because if there's one thing creative media needs to avoid it's variety and experimentation. I sure am glad that Bob Dylan guy stuck to doing show tunes.
