Review of Dota 2 lifetime bans from Valve

Since then, more than 50 players have received lifetime or ‘indefinite’ bans from Valve sanctioned events. Ultimately ending their careers, their dreams coming to a full stop. The incident happened in the SEA regional league open qualifiers for a spot in Division 2. These may seem like events from another lifetime ago, but the pattern has been pervasive.

Review: Alan Wake 2 is a modern masterpiece in survival horror

It is simply that good. Alan Wake 2 does a lot of things very differently than the original game, however. For one, it features dual protagonists and a non-linear story campaign. Somehow, Remedy actually finds a way to tie this into the main plot. This isnt a Resident Evil 2 situation where youre playing two variations of the same story. Their stories intertwine often and culminate altogether, but also stand apart in the best of ways....

Review: Assassin's Creed Mirage gets back to basics with mixed results

Hes just let down by his cohorts here. Here, the characters Basim meets and eventually befriends - or kills - are uncharacteristically drab. Yes, I adore The Expanse - how can you tell? Unfortunately, the one thing Baghdad lacks is any form of believable life. None of it sticks. The characters wandering about the streets simply do not matter, and the vendors quite literally hold no identity. The citys four boroughs might as well be filled with robots, theyre so devoid of personality....

Review: Atomic Heart oozes with style but suffers from overambition

You play as a somewhat unhinged Major officer called Sergei Nechaev, though he mostly goes by P-3. Theyre killing people, and who couldve seen that coming? Atomic Heart has one of the most impressive opening acts to a game I have played in recent years. Unlike those games however, Atomic Heart’s world looks gorgeous but not quite lived in. The regular killer robots come in close with slow attacks, leaving them vulnerable to axes and heavy attacks....
