The sound design in Red Dead Redemption 2 is seriously one of the most underrated parts of this game. The sounds of wildlife, Arthur’s horse stomping on muddy terrain, and amazing ambient sounds are always on point.

A man in the UK was arrested for murder, and his only concern was that he’d miss GTA VI as he’d likely get life in prison. The police officer replies “You’ve got ages for that” 💀

In just a few days, the ex-developers of Just Cause are releasing their new game, SAMSON. The studio hasn't opened pre-orders, so the game will be available to buy at launch for $25 (very sensible). It will launch on PC first Looks like a great game for fans of GTA!

Impressions later, but my word Assassin's Creed: Shadows may have some of the best visuals in a recent open-world title. I'm constantly in awe, they're finally pushing the tech side of things. The following footage is captured on my PC. #UbisoftPartner
