Marathon's mid-season 2 update brings in an experimental PvE mode that will let solo and duo runners take on Cryo Archive

I have something to admit to you all. I'm not very good at Marathon. I like when the guns go pew pew, I like the weird sci-fi vibes, but the second I run into another person I'll be lucky if I make it out with all of my limbs intact. As a result, I had resigned myself to never experiencing Cryo Archive, the game's super duper hardcore map exclusive to both crews and those with the prerequisite skills and loot. But!

It's hard to know exactly what I'm looking at when it comes to HEAVYDELIC. I don't mind that so much because it's enrapturing to look at, a banquet of hand drawn background and sprites that look like they've been ripped straight from the pages of a '70s comic you've never heard of but was more influential than you could know.

"The combinations are in the trillions": Star Wars Galactic Racer’s creative director on speeder specialisation, storycrafting, and having “a bit of a smash”

“It's okay to give people a bit of a smash,” Star Wars: Galactic Racer creative director Kieran Crimmins reassured me, after I asked the ex-Criterion Games dev whether rubbin’ is as viable a way of racing as it was in Burnout, the rowdy racing series his former home’s arguably best known for.
