I have been playing Minecraft on and off now for a few years now and I have always wanted to make my own server in order to connect with my friends, even if we are not in the same house. I dont know why Minecraft makes it so difficult to make your very own server, but it is what it is. So to make th...

When War Thunder was officially released at the very end of 2016 many fans were left wondering what that meant for the five-year-old MMO. Were Gaijin Entertainment done implementing and adding features? Of course they weren’t. In fact, they’re planning to roll out almost twice as much content in 201...

I have been playing team fortress 2 for awhile now and I think the way it has been developed is one of the best yet, according to its free price tag. It has so many different maps and game modes, and they are all very well refined. There are also a very wide range of weapon and character selection....

Defeating all three bosses unlocks an endgame dungeon that reveals a surprising amount of backstory behind the ARKs and their purpose, which came as a pleasant surprise in a game that’s ostensibly just about riding dinosaurs around and smelting ore on first glance. It’s this narrative flourish more...

Running up a snowy mountain firing a machine gun at a woolly mammoth from the back of a tyrannosaurus is a fantastic example of the reason many video games exist: living out ridiculous childhood fantasies. ARK: Survival Evolved has plenty of that to go around across its multiple sprawling maps - whi...

Yet despite its issues, Ark can so very often be a wondrous, rewarding thing; a fascinating, beguiling sandbox of possibilities and story generation. Many of my Ark adventures will stay with me long after I stop playing: the terrifying first time my tribe mate and I rode a rickety raft all the way a...

In its official guise, Ark is not a game thats shy about frittering away your free hours. Resource gathering, building, farming, taming, and breeding can all take huge amounts of time, even during an Evolution Event when all of Arks official server multipliers are cranked up so things happen faster....

You can abide by Wildcards rules on official servers, or brave unofficial servers where anything goes. There are servers where dinosaurs can never be tamed, primitive servers with no advanced technology, extinctions servers which reset once a month, servers with procedurally generated maps, and endl...

Ive been playing Ark: Survival Evolved for almost two years now, and Im still not 100 per cent sure if its a good game. Strip away the appealing dinosaur-themed veneer, and developer Studio Wildcards long-in-early-access survival adventure starts to look surprisingly routine. Its core systems are ov...

And in my homestead one morning, I discovered that all of my furniture was permanently glued to the floor. If I wanted to move my bed from one corner to another or add a crafting table to a corner, I’d have to destroy it, lose most of the resources I spent making it, and just make a new one. Certain...

I have been playing Team Fortress for about a year now in Steam. This game is really fun with friends and the best thing about it is that it is free to play. I feel like Team Fortress 2 is a great game for no cost. It is also convenient that you can play it on Steam. If you ever played Mad Paintball...

I have been playing Crossout for awhile now and while it is still in its developing stage, it is turning out to be a solid game. It is one of those games that you can just get on really quick and catch a quick round of battling. It actually encourages you to not battle for an extended, continuous pe...

Rail Nation USA is an entertaining browser-based strategy game that has players managing a train empire across the United States. While a little bit more control would have been appreciated, the game still offers an entertaining experience that is perfect for those pickup and play moments. In the ga...

The user interface is terrible. Seriously, seriously terrible. One of two things occurred in the development of Arma III, either the UI developer was a rogue, creative individual experimenting with a bold, minimalistic new interface, or they had never played a video game before and decided to fly bl...

Its hard to think of Arma III as anything more than a tech demo. It feels skeletal, like the wood frame of a house under construction. You see where its going, but you wouldnt want to live there yet. If youre ever played a game while in its early beta stages, thats what Arma III will feel like, exce...
