Even after more than a decade, Fallout 3 remains a game unlike most anything out there. Filled to bursting with content and the opportunity for post-apocalyptic adventure in an open world, it’s the change in direction the Fallout series sorely needed and continues to influence the course of following entries. If you’ve had your fill of the game though, and want to branch out into a new yet familiar experience, we’re here to help with 10 games like Fallout 3 if you’re looking for something similar....

Halloween is going to be a scare-fest. This generation of video games saw the addition of numerous creepy horror games. The eeriness of modern horror games is characterized by being more than minor jump scares. They take you into the shoes of people stuck in inhospitable circumstances. Although they can be violent, horror video games don’t have to be. The ongoing threat of someone stalking you is scary enough. To make things creepier, turn off the lights late at night; few would dare to....

Naughty Dog have, since the beginning, always been a developer who have jumped into a genre after it’s been established, taken its best elements, and refined them to make a perfect game. First was the mascot platformer (Crash Bandicoot), then the collectathon (Jak & Daxter) and the open world mission-based game (Jak 2/3), and then the linear story-based action-adventure game. Uncharted is absolutely beloved as one of the finest series across the PS3 and PS4 generations, and while they are some of the best-looking, most well-acted, and most balanced and paced series of games around, there are many out there that share the same spark for adventure, exploration, narrative, and character....

Not every video game is gonna be a winner. It’s an undeniable fact of life. No matter how many successful releases a popular vide game franchise may have during its lifetime, there will always be that one game that didn’t quite hit the mark. Whether it just failed to make a long lasting impression, or single-handily killed any good will associated with the series, there will always be a black sheep in the family....

There is no denying that Nintendo is one of the most well-known and successful video game companies of all time. Founded in 1889, the history of Nintendo in many aspects is synonymous with the history of the gaming industry itself. Initially selling playing cards, the company later found much greater success in the gaming industry and shaped it along the way with some of the most iconic consoles and game characters coming from...

Remnant: From The Ashes is a great horror game with lots of action, nightmarish bosses, and unique weapons. Players that descend into this game will encounter a post-apocalyptic world that’s been overrun by creatures from another dimension. It can be a tough game at times and many players are thrown by how steep the curve is to become a strong survivor in this miserable world. That being said there are some general tips to get beginners started and make those stuck in the mid-game a little more dangerous....

Unless you’re playing an open world game or RPG, chances are your game is going to be relatively short. If that’s the case, these games tend to then be padded with free updates, which is more rare compared to paid DLC packs like expansions. Back in the day, these new costumes, characters, secrets, or what have you were included on the disc, but it was tricky to unlock the content. Let’s look at Resident Evil 2 as a good example since the remake just came out....

Star Wars is probably the biggest movie franchise of all time. When George Lucas first created Star Wars he didn’t think it would make it to the theatres, let alone become the huge success it had. Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope came out nearly half a century ago, and they’re still adding more films to the franchise now. That sounds like every filmmaker’s dream. We were introduced to all the loveable and some unloveable characters we know now, George Lucas grew his fortune and Mark Hamill had the most job security of any actor apart from those on The Bold and the Beautiful....

For as consistent in quality Harry Potter is, it is not the kind of series that benefits all too much under scrutiny. This is not to say that JK Rowling didn’t plot her course well enough or that the franchise’s arc and themes are anything less than cohesive, but there are a fair share of oddities all the way through to the end that do ultimately serve to… not exactly hurt the story, but not benefit it either....

Video game development is no easy feat: publishers like Activision Blizzard and Electronic Arts may make it seem easy with their torrents of yearly releases and remasterings, but those without billions of dollars to throw into a project will find it to be an incredibly difficult task. There are so many moving parts behind the scenes that it’s a marvel to think that most games don’t simply crash—and perhaps set your computer on fire—upon launch....

Designing video games requires a lot of work. With every idea under the sun having been done before, character artists have a heck of a time trying to design unique and fresh characters that’ll appeal to the widest audience. So how do companies narrow down character ideas? Basically, they hire a bunch of concept artists and let them go crazy. But a lot of these designs don’t ever see the light of day....

Gaming laptops have seen tremendous improvements in the last decade. Once reserved only for gaming desktops, high-end graphics cards now feature in many laptops. Even some of the most powerful Nvidia GPUs, like the RTX 3060, can be found on laptops for a reasonable price. © MZinchenko/Shutterstock.com But with so many laptops claiming RTX 3060 performance, how do you know which one is the best for your needs? Whether streaming, playing VR, or gaming on the go, we’ve narrowed down the best RTX 3060 laptops according to specs, features, and user reviews....

It’s clear that Super Mario Sunshine was one of the best games on the GameCube, and stands to be one of the best Mario games of all time. Of course, titles like Super Mario Odyssey and Super Mario Galaxy have outshined it easily. But for a game made in 2002, it was a reason why most people bought a GameCube. However, it was also one of the most controversial games, sparking debate on whether it was really worth the “best game on GameCube” title....

Now one of the premier battle royale games, it can be hard to remember that Apex Legends released less than a year ago. It has gone through some changes during that time but it was very much a success right out of the gate, giving a strong, free, first-person option in the genre. While it’s hard to not feel like every video game on the planet is competing with Fortnite, Apex Legends did as much as possible to separate itself from the rest of the pack, bringing some of the best, and at times obvious, quality of life improvements to the genre....

Customizing The DM Screen Itself This article details the things that are handy to have with you while running a D&D session, but that often goes hand-in-hand with how your D&D Screen itself is set up. Do you like to have one at all? If so, how large? Consider these ways you might customize and/or add information to your DM screen, whether it is premade (you cannot change the information, like the ones sold by Wizards of the Coast) or made by you or purposefully customizable (like the kind which can be bought from small creators on sites like Etsy):...

While Steam is filled to the brim with big blockbuster AAA titles, it also has its fair share of smaller-scale curios. One such indie hit has come out of nowhere today and has managed to sneak all the way to the top of Steam’s most followed upcoming games. Specifically, the title in question is the casual physics-based brawler, Party Animals, which pits up to eight players against each other in a no holds barred battle to the, well… TKO....
