Who would've guessed: first reviews starting to roll out and they are negative — everyone is saying that the game is broken and unfinished.

Unlike Starfield, which can't be fixed, STALKER 2 is a great game you'd want to complete when it's done: the premise is simple, the atmosphere is great, and gunplay feels memorable. For now, it just not ready at all.

The performance is horrible even on 4090 with 14900K. The interior lighting is broken, the reflections are inconsistent, and LOD popping is just five meters away from the camera. The are quest bugs, animation bugs, and so are sounds, AI and stealth — they are all broken and it is getting worse with every hour of gameplay.

A solid start on Steam for STALKER 2! The game is confirmed as buggy, the Frame Generation feature is broken, but overall people are kinda getting what they expected — an atmospheric adventure in a questionable condition.

Epic Allows Internet Archive To Distribute For Free the original ‘Unreal’ & ‘Unreal Tournament’ [Forever]. You probably still gonna need to patch both games to use them now (as mentioned in their descriptions).

Microsoft's new Bing Wallpaper app is borderline

It seems that everyone is generally pleased with Avowed: the game isn't trying to be a huge step forward, but making such a great step back, compared to "modern gaming"!

You can be evil, you can be who you wanna be. The world is big, but not huge and overwhelming, and the whole thing is a bit mediocre by modern standards, but has a very nice flow. It's odd to share a GOOD review by IGN these days! 😁
