Don't try to mod Diablo 4 or you could be permanently banned, Blizzard warn

Modding and tapping in console commands are a core part of why I like PC games. Alas,Diablo 4is not to be tinkered with. They specifically call outTurboHUD4, a customisable UI mod, as an example of a mod that is prohibited. Cheats in multiplayer games are obviously bad.

F1 Manager 2023 review: accurate to a fault

In general, F1 does not have big upsets or lots of on-track drama. I chose Mercedes AMG Petronas for largely nostalgic reasons. Plus I get to have Lewis Hamilton as an in-game tamagotchi this way. What isn’t available, however, is a deep dive. There’s no place to look up detailed information about a lot of things you’ll want to know. How much does an F1 crew chief get paid? Next I check on the staff and see the overall low morale....

Armored Core 6 actually considered "a more open world route"

I mean, it makes sense! Then Elden Ring’s spectral horse came along with its double jumps. A flight from Limgrave to Castle Sol in an AC? The emphasis on mech customisation doesn’t make the game a rocket jump in the park, though. “you might actually create a custom ID for your own AC data, for your current loadout. And it’s possible for you to share this easily in-game with other players,” Yamamura explains....

Armored Core 6 will make you feel like a ten-tonne figure skater

As a historic mech-disliker, the game actually managed to instil a desire to become a skilled mech pilot. I want to buy new metal legs and attach gatling guns to my spine! You play as a mercenary who seemingly bounces between corporations and does their bidding. The levels I sampled were a mixture of icy arenas, iron holds, and sand-blasted wastes. What’s odd about Armored Core’s rhythm, though, is its sudden peaks in difficulty....

Everything we know about Marathon

Could Marathon be coming in May 2025? “on a pack by the runner’s thigh. This is all speculation, however. What is Marathon? Marathon is Bungie’s upcoming extraction shooter.
