Thats where I encountered most of the games first - and I havent really been back since. I must admit, Ive never been one for level editing. My brain just doesnt work in level blocks. Only words, it would seem. I do still have some minor gripes about how readable the main courses are in 3D, mind. As I said, this stuff isnt really in my wheelhouse.

Cities: Skylines 2 review: A standard-bearer that ought to have higher standards

For a follow-up,Cities: Skylines 2is basically good. Ill even continue playing it, which isnt that common after a review, especially for such a timesink. you’re free to even subsidise homes or industry somewhat, which can be surprisingly viable. This is kind of a shame, but reflects that Skylines wants to keep the money flowing. It’s more about building than balancing books. Exports are obvious, but internally, things seem to get bought and consumed and that’s just that....

Halo Infinite is exciting again, as players use new AI Forge tools to build Halo MOBAs and Pokemon arenas

But how long will it last? I choose you, Master Chief! OK, soCounter-Strike 2can breathe easy for the moment. Perhaps it’s time to dust off my old Carnage Heart instincts and do some Forging myself. And then there’s xXBarthXx’shomage to The Maw, the final level ofHalo: Combat Evolved. While I vaguely abhor Infinite’s service-game overhaul, I’m always happy to see Halo doing well.
