Strinova has got a very clear game plan – take the competitive, tactical shooter gameplay from the likes of Valorant and Counter-Strike 2, make it third-person, and turn every character into anime eye candy. Is it a recipe for success? To an extent. The shooter’s first 24 hours on Steam have gone well when it […]
2005 was a year bursting at the seams with great games – Resident Evil 4, the first God of War, Psychonauts, GTA Liberty City Stories, and so many more iconic titles all arrived.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 launched Tuesday on Windows PC and Xbox Series X, but it hasn’t been a smooth ride.
