John Romero still isn't done with Doom; the legendary designer has confirmed he's currently working on a follow-up to his "unofficial" Doom episode, Sigil.
Announced to coincide with Doom's 25th anniversary in 2018 and released as a free megawad the following year, Sigil was designed as the unofficial fifth episode in the original Doom saga - picking up after Ultimate Doom's Thy Flesh Consumed - and treated fans to 18 brand-new, Romero-designed levels: nine single-player and nine death match.

Just Dance 3 boasts a toe-tapping total of 49 musical tracks, Ubisoft has announced. It launches today on Wii and Xbox 360. The list is a diverse medley of music, from pop group Brahms' Hungarian Dance no. 5 to Venus by classical composer Bananarama. Bizarrely, fictional popstar Robin Sparkles' breakthrough hit Let's Go to the Mall is also included - all of which will make no sense unless you've watched US sitcom How I Met Your Mother.
[Read More]Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti review: faster than 2080 Super, easily beats 1080 Ti

Page 1 of 6 Next page The rumours were true: the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti is a real graphics card, and we've been testing it for the past week. Nvidia promises RTX 2080 Super level performance in a smaller, cheaper and more efficient Ampere design, and - spoiler alert - that's exactly what our testing shows they've delivered. For £370 in the UK, $400 in the US and around €399 in Europe, the 3060 Ti isn't quite in mainstream territory, but it's significantly faster than the RTX 2060 Super it replaces at the same price-point and AMD's competitive Big Navi architecture has yet to debut at anything below the $580/£530 price point of the RX 6800.

Page 1 of 7 Next page The RTX 3080 Ti is here, and I know what you're thinking - why even release an RTX 3080 Ti if the 3080 remains so hard to find? The official answer from Nvidia is binning: chips come off the production line with different levels of quality, and get sorted into different 'bins' based on the performance that each particular bit of silicon is capable of achieving.

Depending on whether you're a Mirage or Pathfinder main, this is either the best or worst day of your Apex Legends career, as the season five patch has brought a raft of changes to the game's meta. Aside from the addition of new legend Loba, the big news from Respawn's patch notes is that Pathfinder - normally considered one of the most powerful legends due to his mobility - has had his wings clipped.

Bored with your plain old white PS5? Sony is now adding new coloured console covers in pink, purple, and blue. Actually, that's Nova Pink, Galactic Purple, and Starlight Blue to be precise. Black (Midnight Black) and Red (Cosmic Red) console covers are already available, priced £44.99. The console covers will match controllers in the same colours already available, priced £64.99 each. That's a fiver more expensive than the basic white.

Shortly after we received confirmation of a March 4th release date for Gran Turismo 7, more details were shared on the returning career mode and customisation options for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 driving experience. Following its absence in the online-focussed - and quite brilliant - Gran Turismo Sport, the career mode returns in full-blooded fashion for the first numbered entry in the series since 2013. There's a compact World Map that hosts the many distractions of the career mode, including a licence centre where the series' infamous licence tests make their return, a tuning shop where players can pick up new parts to mod their cars - including licensed parts such as brake pads from Brembo - and a user car section where players can pick up pre-loved classics.

A decent RPG wrapped up in a grossly hilarious licence, South Park will be remembered more for its gags than its gameplay. As the credits roll on South Park: The Stick of Truth, the big question isn't why Ubisoft would choose to censor certain scenes for tender European eyes, but how they censored it. This is a game that doesn't so much cross the line as utterly erase it in a blitzkrieg of piss, poop, farts, profanity and over-the-top violence.

Virtual Reality is often seen as a solo experience and indeed, a lot of VR games on the market right now are just that. Players are locked away from the real world, heads encased in a plastic helmet, arms twirling and pointing at imaginary targets. To any bystanders without the luxury of a share screen to look at, the whole thing definitely looks a bit silly. But for those inside the helmet?

Destiny 2 Nightmare locations are common on the Moon - the destination introduced as part of the Shadowkeep expansion - but they can also be found on other planets too.
Doing so is required to complete the main Shadowkeep story as part of the Essence of Pride quest step, as well as an on-going series of Nightmare bounties you can pick up next to Eris.
They also only appear in specific Nightmare Lost Sectors, too, so knowing where to go before hand can save you a lot of time.
