PC Gamers and Oddworld fans have been waiting over five years for Stranger’s Wrath to be ported to the PC, and Monday December the 20th, we’ll finally get the chance to play one of the best XBox games on our fancy gaming PC’s. Stranger’s Wrath is one of four Oddworld games which can be bought individually, or altogether as a bundle called the Oddboxx.
The last two days we gave out advice on what to buy for the shooter fans in your life, as well as the horror buffs. Today we’ll let you know what to buy for the artsy-smarty gamers who like independent games, by small developers. A lot of gamers need cutting edge graphics, or mountains of content, but some of us can appreciate a game that is short, simple, and intelligent. Best of all, these idies are digitally distributed, so they can make a great last minute gift.
Just when we thought Oddworld Stranger’s Wrath won the prize for “Last Great PC Game of the Year”, along comes Back to the Future from Telltale Games, which chronicles a brand new adventure for Marty, Doc and their flying, time-traveling Delorean Its release date has been set for next Wednesday, the 22nd.
As the year draws to a close, it is important to look back and see what wonders we experienced on our journey. As part of our Gift Buyer’s Guide for 2010, here are our recommendations for Role-Playing Games, a very important segment of PC gaming, that allow players to grow and develop characters, relationships and feel like they’re taking part in and influencing a epic adventure that can change at their discretion (usually). 2010 was a good year for games overall, but of course there were those that shone brightest and there are some that failed us all. Here are some of my picks of 2010 PC RPGs.
Yesterday we gave you some advice on what First Person Shooters you should buy (Or ask for) this holiday season. Today we’ll give you tips on what games to buy for your friends who love to be scared. We’ll also give you a warning about what horror games you should stay away from.
There’s a little over a week left to buy gifts for the gamers in your life (Or to provide hints for the people buying games forYOU). So, Player Affinity has put together a guide you can use to choose presents for your pals, or you can send this out to grandma so she won’t buy you a copy of Wii Tea Party for Christmas. The first part of our guide is for shooters, and we’ll cover a different genre every day.
As we approach Christmas, we can expect the online sales frenzy to grow greater and greater, reaching a horrid peak somewhere around the middle of next week as all the online stores and digital distributors make their final lunges at our wallets. This week we’re still seeing some worthy sales, though, so let’s take a look at what’s available at the moment.
