I use to equate the quality of esports mice with garish looks, bulky construction, and fancy button configurations. However, my favorite mouse of the last few years, the Logitech G Pro Wireless, is the exact opposite of that aesthetic. It’s simple and understated. It feels so light, you would be excused for thinking it was […]

My Day As A Sniper Ghost Warrior Was Uncomfortable And Gross
There’s nothing media types like myself enjoy more than an in-person event. They’re always a great opportunity to learn more about upcoming games, chat with developers face-to-face, and catch up with other games journalists and content creators. A lot of gaming sites, TheGamer included, are decentralized, so the only opportunity I have to meet up […]
Watching Someone Else Play My Childhood Favourites Removes The Nostalgia Goggles
You know the saying, ‘never meet your heroes’? Well, that can be true of never revisiting childhood favourites. That movie you loved as a kid? It’s bad – unless we’re talking about Scooby-Doo, those movies still rock. I replayed GTA: San Andreas recently, and wow, that game is hard to look at. The sky looks […]

The demo for WRC 10 hits the Steam Next Fest on June 16, 2021, letting players get a taste of being behind the wheel of their favorite rally vehicles and onto legendary race tracks before the full game launches on September 2.

I’m living my best life and tossing old ladies into the sea
I’ve spent the last few days recharging my batteries by tossing old ladies into the sea, stealing from orphans, and enjoying my illicit affair with a hunky sea captain. I gotta admit, it’s an unorthodox schedule, but one that’s really working for me. I’m playing Overboard!, a narrative title about murdering my husband and trying […]
My GTA Online role-play dildo prank went horribly wrong
I am haunted by a telltale vibrator in my digital home. I cannot stop it, and I cannot escape it. The best I can do is avert my eyes and hope that no one else discovers my shame. My friends and I have spent the last few weeks settling into a Grand Theft Auto Online […]
My Childhood Gaming Experience Relied On Rentals, Xbox Game Pass May Fill That Void
My adult financial situation is a bit different from my life as a kid. Growing up as the only child of a single mother with several disabilities, as you can imagine, we weren’t exactly loaded. My first console, a dirty NES with taped-up wires, originally belonged to my older cousin, who decided gaming was for […]
My Favorite Part Of Oblivion Was The Arena, And It Should Return In The Elder Scrolls 6
“Good people of the Imperial City!” bellows the announcer, the gravel in his throat rising as he addresses the cardboard cutout crowd, “Welcome to the Arena! It looks like the Yellow Team has pulled a fast one by replacing their combatant with three Argonian prisoners… This should be interesting!” The gate slides down, creaking until the metallic […]
I Have Made A Mess Of My Genshin Impact Teams – Here’s A Word Of Warning
Venti’s banner has returned to Genshin Impact, and I’m thrilled about it. I, once again, find myself pulling for a character that I could probably do without. It’s now that I realize I’ve only passed on two banners in Genshin Impact, Hu Tao and Albedo. I’ve had pretty good luck so far, and the only […]
