Dark Souls 3 launch trailer has been released

Its funny how all of this started. Back when I first saw Dark Souls at my friend's house I vowed I would never play such an imbalanced and unfair game, yet a couple of years later and here we are, I'm practically frothing at the mouth while waiting for Dark Souls 3 to destroy me... I might have issues.

It doesn't help that Fromsoftware have started to release a steady stream of Dark Souls 3 information, today in the form of a brand new trailer which showcases some of the more interesting boss designs out there, and also a giant enemy crab! Have a look:

Payday 2 is now on Steam OS and free until the end of March

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Payday 2. On one hand its an excellent game in which I've invested over 100 hours falling of various buildings and getting tased, but on the other its a constantly repeating cycle of great DLC practices followed by utterly despicable ones, with seemingly no middle ground.

While I might have some issues with it, its still great to hear that Payday 2 is now available on SteamOS, and most importantly, given to you for free if you already own it on the PC.

Fallout 4's survival mode is entering beta testing next week

Its no secret at this point that the original implementation of the "survival" mode in Fallout 4 was fairly lackluster. Having to expend entire clips at bare-chested bandits was definitely an increase in difficulty, just not really the type anyone asked for.

However, the upcoming Survival mode rework is a completely different story as it introduces lethal combat (for both you and the enemies), diseases, fatigue, and a whole bunch of other nasty features you'll have to keep an eye out for, or end up as a bloody discussion piece at some bandit camp.

Paragon is a MOBA from Epic Games

[Update]: Overprime is a third-person MOBA heavily based on Epic's long-canceled Paragon.

After spending around a week with Paragon I've come to realize that it makes me feel the very same emotions Dota 1 evoked back when I first tried it, eons ago: the thrill of experiencing something completely new, the utter confusion about how anything works, the "AHA!" moment of finally figuring it out, and the eternal rage of a thousand stars at some of the more broken elements.

Much like Dota 1 at that point, Paragon is currently unfinished. This isn't one of those fancy beta tests where you are essentially playing a demo, instead its one where you are presented with a game whose core is complete, yet everything surrounding it is held up with a few sticks, some gum, and a whole lot of good will.

Dota 2 Spring Cleaning update brings many, many new additions

It might not be the patch the community was clamoring for, but the Dota 2 Spring Cleaning update is one of the most significant patches in the rage-simulator's history.

There are no balance changes, or even new heroes, instead its an entire massive update devoted solely towards making Dota 2 a much more pleasurable game to play through a variety of quality of life changes and UI improvements. Here's my quick overview of all the important additions and changes:
