It’s that time again and we’re heading into the second week of December with an exciting feature we’re sure you’ll love. Yes, we know it’s an oldie, but oh is it a goodie. Maybe the best open-world PC game ever? You read and decide for yourself.  What is this week’s spotlight? Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.  Released in 2015 by CD Projekt Red, Witcher 3: Wild Hunt soon became one of the highest-rated PC games (10/10) according to Steam and we seriously can’t argue with that. We’d be remiss not to mention that it also won Game of the Year and…

Here’s a sobering fact for you: depending on the size and operational scope of your business, a major data breach could not only cost you a ludicrous amount of money but could also potentially compromise millions of customers’ accounts. As a business owner, a professional, or just someone who’s concerned about data security, you really can’t afford your data falling into the wrong hands. As technology improves, the consequences of losing data or being hacked become more and more severe. Where can you turn in these troubled times? The answer, as it happens, is iStorage. This UK-based company has been…

Every video lover must have noticed the slow progression of video games in 2019. While this might seem a little bit of concern, it might interest you to know that something great still came out of this dearth. There are more than enough fun games on gamesgames.com, including new releases this year that you should jump on.  Below is a list of some of the best fun games that rocked 2019 that you should not miss out on: 1. Apex Legends This game was released in February and has since been one of the most played games this year. Apex…

In the history of gaming, racing games have been consistent since the first video game was released in 1974. However, it has improved over the years and happens to be the favorite genre of many video game lovers, whether as a novice or a professional gamer.  Selecting the best racing games isn’t an easy fit as it involves a lot, including the graphical content, sound, and virtual reality, like some of the car games on agame.com. The best racing game feels just right and keeps you glued longer than you expect while you have a great experience. Below are some…

Planet Zoo is a game all about animals. That might sound like an obvious observation but never has a game had a more thorough approach to its subject matter than Frontier Developments has applied here. Perhaps this should be expected from the developers of stalwart simulation games like Planet Coaster and space trucker sim Elite Dangerous, but believe us when we say that Planet Zoo is not a game for the casual simulation fan or those who don’t like to pore too much over information. Let’s back up a little. Planet Zoo is the latest game in Frontier’s long-running quest…

Once upon a time, the humble 3D platformer was the go-to game of choice for any developer wishing to make a movie tie-in game but not possessing the resources or time to make that game more unique. Everything from Toy Story to Wall-E to Madagascar got the 3D platformer treatment, and while they were all of varying quality, they flooded the market to the point that the 3D platformer fell out of favour in general. We’re not blaming those licensed games specifically for that, but they played a part. Fastforward to 2019 and the tie-in game is all but dead.…

For some, Call of Duty is in the midst of an identity crisis. 2017’s Call of Duty: WWII returned the series to its early-2000s roots but couldn’t quite manage to capture the magic momentum of the franchise at its best. In 2018, Treyarch took its turn with Black Ops 4, a game that garnered its fair share of criticism thanks to a lack of single-player content and a perceived attempt to keep up with the battle royale-loving Joneses.  With that in mind, it’s no surprise that when Infinity Ward’s turn once again rolled around after the lukewarm reception of 2016’s…

What are the most essential qualities you look for in an external storage drive? The answer to that question will dictate whether or not the SecureDrive BT is for you. If you favour security and protection of your sensitive files over everything else, then there is absolutely no doubt that you should buy this drive yesterday. If you’re only looking to store a few photographs and don’t need the additional security protocols, this is a slightly harder sell. It’s rare that a product knows its audience so well and is willing to cater to them almost exclusively. Let’s back up…

One word: amazing. If that dramatic teaser trailer didn’t give you goosebumps, you must be an alien. Following a stunning reveal at BlizzCon 2019, we’re anticipating an incredible RPG sequel to Blizzard’s beloved Diablo 3.  We’ve scavenged the universe to find all the reputable information we could and compiled it into this article for your reading pleasure.  Check out the trailer below:  https://youtu.be/0SSYzl9fXOQ Three different classes have been revealed at BlizzCon; Barbarian, Sorceress, and Druid. While we don’t know a lot, the basics of each were confirmed in class gameplay trailers brought to us by Game Informer on Youtube.  Let’s…

After lots of nail-biting and brain blanking, it’s been decided that the Game of the Week should go to none other than the up and coming contender for top battle royale game; Apex Legends. No collective groan from the audience? We didn’t think so.  This mildly infuriating, team-oriented BR game hit the charts on launch in February with a peak 25 million players. While that figure has died down considerably, from the mouth of EA, they still bring in an average of 8-10 million per week, that figure obviously includes me.  Best features: Teamplay, unique weapons, ping system, character classes,…

How far would you go to protect your sensitive files and data? This is a question that has a different answer depending on who you ask. For some, security simply isn’t a crucial part of their everyday life; they’ve only got a few photos or documents and they don’t see how anyone could possibly take advantage of them. Others will tell you security is paramount and that the sensitive data they constantly carry with them causes them infinite worry. The truth, however, is that security should be a much more prominent concern for all of us than it currently is.…

If you’re a fan of mobile gaming, you’ve no doubt experienced the joy that is Coin Master. You can get this game entirely for free (though it does contain in-app purchases) on Android and iOS, so if you haven’t played it already then you have no excuse not to try it out and get stuck in. Coin Master revolves around the two dual mechanics of battling and slot-spinning; you spin to get loot, then use that loot to launch attacks. It’s an addictive mixture and it’s easy to see why the game is so popular. If you have played Coin…

Now this is a blast from the past. 2009 being a retro year is scary for those of us who remember being on the cusp of adulthood around that time, but there’s no mistaking it; Resident Evil 5 now feels like it belongs to a bygone era. Not that you’d know it from the amount Capcom re-releases the game for various different platforms, of course. That’s not a complaint; we love Resident Evil 5, so getting a chance to play it in a variety of ways comes as a pleasant surprise every time. It was with a lighthearted skip in…

The Atelier franchise is completely labyrinthine. A quick trip to Wikipedia (I know it’s not the most reliable source, but it’ll do for our purposes) tells us that there have been an incredible 21 games in the franchise, all of which are subdivided into seven different meta-series. Salburg, Gramnad, Iris…if you’re not familiar with these names, then the Atelier franchise probably looks as daunting and off-putting to you as it has done to me in the past. What we need is an entry point, somewhere that non-fans can step onto the series and start playing. Luckily, we now have Atelier…

When Yooka-Laylee was announced, a great deal was made about how the game was a product of former Rare Studios employees. That’s because Rare has a pretty impressive pedigree when it comes to platformers; they’re the creators of Banjo-Kazooie, Conker’s Bad Fur Day, and, of course, Donkey Kong 64. It was the first and last game in this list that Yooka-Laylee was moclearly modelled on, although it did take the irreverent sense of humour of Conker’s Bad Fur Day (albeit without quite so much vulgarity). Now, Playtonic Studios are turning their hand to a spin-off-come-sequel called Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible…

I’m standing atop a hill covered with leafy vegetation and gently swaying trees. Overlooking an enemy base, I send out my drone and organically recon the area, watching for enemy patrol routes and judging distances. Satisfied I’ve got them all figured out, I launch my sneaky assault, winding my way down to the base from my perch and expertly predicting enemy movements. One enemy remains after I’ve systematically dispatched my enemies and looted them. The chase is on. When it’s good, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is very good indeed. These moments – sneaking through bases, organically taking down enemies, and watching…

League of Legends began as a project of an indie game company, Riot Games, and was launched in October 2009. If Marc Merrill and Brandon Beck, the names behind the company, actually predicted the level of success the game was going to have, is yet to be answered. But one thing is for sure: this year, League of Legends hits its 10-year anniversary, and the stakes are higher than ever before. League of Legends took inspiration from Asian video games, but the creators thought it was unfair to create a game where you can buy additional features that would help…

The release of FIFA 20 means that gamers are looking all over the internet trying to find the best young players to buy when they enter career mode. The hot-bed for talent over the past couple of seasons has been England as we enter a golden generation for the Three Lions, which has already consisted of two semi-final appearances at competitions. The calibre of players in the Premier League is typically high, but more than ever, the biggest teams in the division are building their sides around home grown talent. But, when players enter career mode, which professionals have the…

Military strategy is a pretty popular genre, and for obvious reasons. The appeal of watching troops execute a perfectly-planned strategy and take down their enemy with ruthless efficiency isn’t one that needs to be explained. Nevertheless, this crowded genre has hundreds of games, some better than others. Here are the top 20 military strategy games you can play in 2019. BattleTech (PC) While BattleTech doesn’t technically feature the real-life military, it does revolve around a group of mercenaries piloting mechs, so it is military in spirit. The strategy in BattleTech is deep, complex, and interwoven; every system interlocks perfectly, and…

You may have expected it or it may come as a bolt from the blue, but it’s now completely official: Sony has announced its new console. It is, as you might expect, called the PlayStation 5, in continuance with a naming scheme Sony has been using since 2000’s PlayStation 2. It’ll come to our shores in the holiday period next year, although we don’t actually know exactly when it’s coming yet. Naturally, we’ll bring you more on the PS5 as we get it, but for now, here’s the scoop. Speaking to Wired, lead architect Mark Cerny, as well as Sony…

Any gamer worth their salt knows that you can’t just game with the PS4 on its own. If you’re going to maximise the potential of Sony’s wonderful black monolith, you’re going to need some excellent accessories. You’d be forgiven for thinking you’ll have to break the bank to buy the best accoutrements for your console, but that’s not the case at all. Many of the best things you can buy to augment your experience cost less than you might think. Here are the best PS4 accessories for under £50. Best Controller Under £50 –  Sony DualShock 4 Controller (£39.99) Put…

Nintendo is absolutely killing it in the gaming industry right now. The on-again-off-again pattern of the company’s console releases means each console is alternately successful and a disappointment. The N64 did great business, but the GameCube was underwhelming. The Wii put Nintendo back on track, but the Wii U was a disaster. Now we’ve got the Switch, a great idea with excellent execution that fills a niche we didn’t know we needed to be filled until it was. It stands to reason that a console like the Switch would be absolutely rammed with great games. There are, of course, some…

If you thought Animal Crossing: New Horizons was the most hyped animal-based life-sim coming to the Nintendo Switch, you’ve got another thing coming. Untitled Goose Game (we’re so glad they actually called it that) has finally waddled its way onto Nintendo’s eShop and it is irresistibly charming. Initially greeted by some seriously chilled out main menu music, from the moment I started up the game I was in love. Untitled Goose Game’s vibrant block colours, consistently pleasing cell-shading, playful piano soundtrack, and simple mechanics knit together atmosphere and gameplay into an endlessly endearing package. The game opens in a quiet…

When you’re a gamer, almost nothing matters more than the game itself. You could be playing on an ancient 12-inch CRT TV or a state-of-the-art 8K display, but if the game isn’t good then you’re not going to get much enjoyment out of it. That being the case, it’s still true that good gamers deserve good gaming setup, and the ultimate gamer needs the ultimate rig to complement their mad skills. If that’s you, then step right up and discover how to build the ultimate gaming setup. A quick proviso: naturally, the ultimate gaming setup will differ depending on whether…

Rally driving is a terrifying prospect. For those of us who’ve never tried it or never been interested in trying it, watching the drivers career around bends that should by rights launch their cars into roadside ditches is a scary experience. Luckily, we’ve got video games to help us live that fantasy vicariously (because Lord knows you wouldn’t get most of us here into a rally car). Specifically, we’ve got the WRC series. This franchise goes right back to 2001’s World Rally Championship, created by Evolution Studios. The series has passed through three different developers since its inception; it took…

The royal battle is one of the most popular types of game played by the players, because the goal is to make a maximum of “kill” without being killed, and to keep as long as possible in the game. We will talk about some big hits games such as PUBG or Fortnite , but we will also discover some nuggets of royal battle that are worth seeing. 1 – ROBLOX “MOD” the battle royale mod we know it does not exist on Roblox for a simple copyright reason but there is a MOD called Island Royale . It imitates the…

Video games are rising in popularity and the industry is growing like never before. As computers, mobiles and internet become more accessible worldwide, videogames are reaching more people. This is especially true since the development of free-to-play eSports games, which have revolutionized the market. Today’s eSports have taken over giant stadiums during leagues and tournaments and are not only being by played by millions, but spectated online by hundreds of millions of fans. eSports is no longer just a subgenre of gaming – it’s a whole phenomenon. Let’s dive into the world of eSports and see just how much it’s…

It’s finally getting colder. Temperatures are dropping, the leaves are falling from the trees, and the Pumpkin Spice Latte is back on sale. It’s almost time for Halloween. Almost. But if you just can’t wait for the spooky season to kick in, how about playing some terrifying video games to tide you over? We’ve compiled a list of some of the best around and some of the more obscure titles you might want to check out if you’re in the mood for a scare! In no particular order, here are our top 20 horror games. 1. Silent Hill Often regarded…

Twitch Overview: More Than Just Games In Real Life (IR) has become a big part of Twitch since its launch. If the Twitch revolution has passed you by, you might want to get yourself up to speed. Twitch is an incredibly popular streaming platform on which users stream themselves gaming, chatting, and generally living. Gaming is the most popular part of Twitch by far, but it’s not the only part. There are plenty of Twitch streamers who aren’t interested in video games or don’t dedicate themselves entirely to this aspect of their lives. The Rise of IRL Streaming One such…

If you’ve ever considered becoming a Twitch streamer, you probably know that it isn’t easy. Putting together a setup and dealing with the technical side of things is tricky, but it probably isn’t the hardest part of Twitch streaming. That dubious honour goes to actually gathering followers once you’ve set your channel up. It’s this aspect of streaming that sets amateur Twitch enthusiasts apart from true professionals, and it’s this aspect that proves most elusive whenever anyone decides to set up a channel. Getting people to actually watch your content doesn’t necessarily need to be as tricky as many people…

Here’s a sobering fact for you. Depending on how ads work within Twitch streams, it’s possible for a streamer to make between $1000 and $10,000 an hour. For many people, that will be a completely unattainable amount of money, and yet there are those who complain that Twitch streaming “looks like an easy job” and that “anyone could do it”. Are these statements true? Well…yes and no, of course. There are fewer barriers to entry for Twitch than for many other jobs, but it is naturally not easy to become a Twitch streamer. Here’s what you need to broadcast on…
