Putting the sauce in awesome.

  • Croteam 'never planned to make' its philosophical puzzler The Talos Principle, but it emerged as a 'happy accident' while working on Serious Sam

    Jump

  • One of my favourite puzzle games ever.

  • NEW RELEASE - Cabernet

  • NEW RELEASE - Blood Typers

    Jump

  • A survival horror that's controlled entirely by typing on a keyboard. Online co-op is available. No reviews yet but I like the premise. Might be playable on a Steam Deck if you connect it to a keyboard. Demo is available for you to try before you buy. Also, the dev is broadcasting his playthrough right now.

  • NEW RELEASE - Doors of Insanity: ReOpened

    Jump

  • This is a remake of Doors of Insanity, released in 2021 -- but has since been de-listed. Yes, it's a card battler. However, it's one you can play on your Steam Deck or with a gamepad. No reviews yet, but this is published by Neon Doctrine, who also brought us Count Lucanor and Devilated.

  • NEW RELEASE - Cabernet

    Jump

  • Basically, this is a 2D vampire-themed narrative RPG with a fun art style, great voice acting, and strong lesbian subtext. The soundtrack sounds amazing, and you can buy it as DLC. This game supports both Xbox and DualShock gamepads. So far, both critics and gamers love this game. A demo is also available, so it's worth trying before buying.

    It's also important to acknowledge the dev is a woman.

  • BioWare veteran calls out the 'cruelty' of fans celebrating layoffs: 'You are crossing a line, and you're probably attacking the wrong person anyway'

    Jump

  • Okay, but do so-called "gamers" actually care about video games? Because most of the time, I don't see them talking about actual video games that they enjoy.

  • NEW RELEASE - Cosmic: A Journey Among Shadows

    Jump

  • I'm on the fence with this one because the early access reviews are mixed. However, it's a metroidvania with a fun art style and music is enjoyable. It's also nice you can play this with a gamepad. It also looks like this is the dev's first game.

  • GeForce RTX 5070 and RTX 5060 availability to be poor at launch

    Jump

  • I play my Steam Deck more than my living room tower, which has a 3090. When it's time to upgrade again, I think I'll just get a Steam Deck 2 and dock it to my TV.

  • Ex-Sony Exec Says PC Ports of Old PS5 Games Are Almost Like Printing Money

    Jump

  • Microsoft also has the benefit of owning Windows.

    Personally, I just just hook up my PC to my TV, run Steam in Big Picture mode, and it gives me a console experience. Not a perfect console experience, mind you, but good enough for me.

  • Ex-Sony Exec Says PC Ports of Old PS5 Games Are Almost Like Printing Money

    Jump

  • I remember gaming in the 80s and 90s, and four-year-old games were regarded as ancient. Times have really changed.

  • 13 years on, Ubisoft adds Steam achievements to the one mainline Assassin's Creed [AC III (2012)] on game you can't actually buy, but not the updated version you can [AC III Remastered]

  • Microsoft CEO [Satya Nadella] Stresses That Gaming Is Critical To The Company

    Jump

  • Gaming is quite critical for any tech company because it validates technology. If not for gaming, AI wouldn't even have hype.

  • NEW RELEASE - Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

    Jump

  • I enjoy the Like a Dragon series quite a lot, and this iteration seems like the whackiest one of the bunch. The graphics are really colourful here. This is Steam Deck verified, and playable with both Xbox and DualShock gamepads. Lots of DLC available, but they're mostly just outfits and ship customizations. You can get an extra karaoke and CD pack for C$5.99. So far, this has been reviewed quite well. The system requirements imply that you need a new-ish PC to play this, but I regard that with a heaping tablespoon of salt since, again, this works on a Steam Deck.

  • NEW RELEASE: Cascadia

    Jump

  • According to the Steam page, DualShock only works via USB.

  • NEW RELEASE - X-Out: Resurfaced

    Jump

  • This one I'm really excited about because it's re-make of the classic Amiga game X-Out, made by the legendary Rainbow Arts. This release preserves the art style of the original while delivering several enhancements, such as lighting effects. And it still has a soundtrack by Chris Huelsbeck. You can play this with a gamepad, and there's local co-op.

  • Steam's best rated games of 2024 aren't what you'd expect

    Jump

  • I don't know. Spending hundreds of millions of dollars, then discontinuing the game after eight days -- I've never seen that before.

  • NEW RELEASE: Cascadia

    Jump

  • Fun premise, good reviews, and attractive visuals for what they are. Both online and local PvP, and the multiplayer is cross-platform too. It's also nice that both Xbox and Dualshock gamepads are supported. Low spec requirements -- you should be able to play this on a potato.

  • This one has a cool premise, and it has good reviews too. It's also silly and doesn't take itself seriously. Inexpensive too.
