With the upcoming release of Dark Souls PC, we thought it would be appropriate to share our thoughts on the ideal and proper PC version of Dark Souls.

Therefore, we’ll be realistic on our demands and we’ll present you what features the PC version of Dark Souls should support. PC gamers demanded this game to get released on their beloved platform and it would be wise for Namco (and the company porting it) to support them.

Ridge Racer: Unbounded PC Performance Analysis

We always liked Bugbear’s games. FlatOut was a great arcade racing series and run flawlessly in a lot of PC system configurations. Naturally, we thought that Ridge Racer: Unbounded would live up to the standards that were set by the Finish studio. Sadly though, what we have in our hands is a shoddy console port of a really promising game. Not only, that, but Ridge Racer: Unbounded suffers from all the flaws and issues that plagued the entire FlatOut series. Yes, there is rubber band and yes the controls are a mess, especially if you try to play the game with the keyboard, something that was no issue with the FlatOut games.

Continue reading Ridge Racer: Unbounded – PC patch to fix the ‘MP invitation’ issues coming next week

Ridge Racer: Unbounded – PC Editor is bugged, incoming patch, demo coming soon

Ridge Racer: Unbounded has been released on the PC and unfortunately, it comes with a bugged Level Editor. Although the game is perfectly fine and playable – we do mind though that there aren’t any PC options but that’s another story, when you try to run its Level Editor you’ll get a fatal error message. According to the developers, this might be due to a PC patch issue preventing the City Creator from launching. Continue reading Ridge Racer: Unbounded – PC Editor is bugged, incoming patch, demo coming soon

SFxT PC won’t support local co-op, no physical copies for purchases via Capcom USA Store

We hate to be the bearers of bad news. Unfortunately though, a nice co-op feature that was found in the PS3 version of Street Fighter x Tekken won’t find its way into the upcoming PC version. Local co-op allows two players to go online as a team on one console and play. This feature is not supported in the X360 version of the game and as Capcom’s Christian Svensson revealed, it won’t be included even in the PC version.
