A New Game Is Coming From The Developers Of The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter
- By Ash

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter was a visually beautiful game with a rather intriguing story but it garnered a lot of criticism due to the fact that there is basically no real "gameplay" to speak of. It is a part of the rather newly created "exploration" genre where you have no foes opposing you or difficult challenges to overcome, instead the focus is on roaming around pretty worlds solving puzzles and trying to unlock whatever mystery might be present.
Their new game however, according to a job posting, is going to be an open world action-adventure which is quite the departure from The Vanishing of Ethan Carter.

It would appear I was correct yesterday when I said that the sales then are going to be hard to match but even so there are some solid deals on today's Steam Sale.

Konami Announced PES Is Getting A F2P Version

I didn't initially cower this rumor because it wasn't known if this is just a demo or a full version but this whole story first appeared on the Australian classification website.
And now it would seem that Konami has not only confirmed the rumor that Pro Evolution Soccer is getting a free to play version, they've also given a date, December 8.
As of right now it is exclusive to the PS4 and the PS3 but I'm expecting it to come to PC eventually as well, most likely not on the same date though.
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Is Free This Weekend

Celebrating 15 years of Hitman (I really feel old now) Square Enix is offering Hitman 2: Silent Assassin for free.
As far as Hitman is concerned I think I can safely say that the series only became incredible with Blood Money but even so Hitman 2 is a classic and worth your time if you enjoy that type of game, if for no other reason than to experience a bit of history.
