Of Fallout’s narrative high notes, the peak is arguably Fallout: New Vegas, the much-loved installment set in post-apocalyptic Vegas and crafted by Obsidian Entertainment, members of which have shepherded the Fallout aesthetic all the way from the Wasteland games to the Outer Worlds. And although Obsidian were fated never to helm another mainline Fallout game, they did get to revisit the universe four times before being ripped away by cruel reality. It’s those four twists on the formula, those four adventures into the unknown, that we’re here to celebrate today. At the height of their storytelling powers, Obsidian gave us some of the best sci-fi in games with the four Fallout: New Vegas add-ons: Dead Money, Honest Hearts, Old World Blues, and Lonesome Road. Each veered sharply away from the standard Fallout formula in its own different direction, while simultaneously painting in the secret overstory of the New Vegas universe and the player character, the Courier.

It’s been a long few years for Hollow Knight fans. The Metroidvania’s long-awaited sequel, Hollow Knight: Silksong, was announced five years ago. Since then, we’ve barely heard a peep about it outside of one high-profile trailer in 2022 that claimed it would launch within 12 months. That didn’t happen, and we’ve been in the dark ever since. Maybe it’ll surprise drop this year. Maybe we won’t see it until 2025. All we can do is wait.

If ever there were a game not to play on a Monday when you've had minimal sleep and basically want to crawl under the table and eat three-day-old pizza, that game - or rather, free "tech demo" - is Fractal Sailor. The work of Struct9 founder Matej Vanco, it hands you a distressingly unwieldy and roofless hovership and cuts you adrift in a vast ocean of malevolent mathematics.

An Elden Ring player roleplaying as the game's nefarious NPC, Patches, amusingly gave a squad of players a tough time during a PvP invasion. 2022's Game of the Year maintains a massive playerbase who are still finding new ways to annoy each other in PvP as they continue to eagerly await any news on Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

If you’re searching for gaming headset deals, it will be tough to find a better offer right now than this 66% discount from Amazon’s Woot for the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Portal. From its original price of $499, it’s down to $170 — a very affordable price for a gaming headset that’s made by one of the most recognizable names in the audio industry. There’s apparently still some time before the $329 in savings get taken down, but it’s highly recommended that you proceed with the purchase as soon as possible because we’re not sure if stocks will last until the end of the sale.

Over the past month, we've seen players beat Elden Ring bosses with bubbles, storm castles with nothing but one button and morse code, roll in real life every time they roll in-game, use a violin to string together attacks, and power through against invisible enemies. But it doesn't stop there.

Given the limitations of base size in , players should take advantage of this newly found farm placement trick while they still can. Farm plots are a crucial part of the game regarding getting high-quality food and Cake for breeding. Despite their usefulness, farm plots are rather large and can take up an immense part of the base. Even when players get the opportunity to establish more bases, other buildings/needs should take priority over farming, leaving players in a tough situation.

There's an easy way to save tons of food in . Food is more central to the experience than the average survival game, simply because players are required to feed both themselves and their Pals. That includes both Pals captured into the party and Pals left working at home base, so collecting and maintaining a significant stock of food is vital. Not eating will decrease a Pal's Sanity, which reduces their productivity. Forget to feed Pals or let the feed box run empty, and the day-to-day operations of a base will grind to a halt.
