• What to do first in Control Resonant after the tutorial

  24-09-2026 17:29 via gamesradar.com
  
  If you're playing Control Resonant, after the tutorial finishes and you reach the Watchtower for the first time, Zoe will give you all kind of potential quests to take on, but which should you do first, and what order? There's plenty of places to go, but Control Resonant is a pretty hard game, and it's easy to feel like you're doing something wrong when the Hiss jump you and leave you in a bruised pile on the floor. If you want to know the best order of things to do first, I'll lay out where to

• GTA 6's $400 collectible spoon is actually a reference to another, far more expensive GTA spoon

  24-09-2026 18:42 via gamesradar.com
  
  You may have noticed Rockstar is shilling a GTA 6 Collector's Box at the moment. The contents include a double-sided poster, a statue of Macca the Gator, and the greatest prize of all, a Vice City-emblazoned spoon.A swizzle spoon to be exact, the kind typically found in cocktail bars and pubs for mixing drinks. Decidedly appropriate for anyone preparing to jaunt around Leonida for hours and hours. It's be more charming if it wasn't part of a collection that costs $399.99, but that's another disc

• Control Resonant patch fixes issues, but causes headache for PC players who now have to reinstall

  24-09-2026 18:36 via gamesradar.com
  
  Remedy has released a new patch for Control Resonant to address some early criticism for the game, which is good news if you don't mind downloading the entire game again on Steam. Control Resonant review scores have been generally positive, but there were a number of criticisms that came up frequently in reviews, with those being the focus of discussion ahead of its launch today. One such thing is the strength of protagonist Dylan, or just the general health of enemies making things feel a bit d

• Where to find all the infusion drugs in Silent Hill Townfall

  24-09-2026 18:27 via gamesradar.com
  
  Trying to find the infusion drugs in Silent Hill Townfall can be a bit of an ordeal, as the Tensobromide, Hydroxalene, and Dextracyclate are scattered through a lengthy, stealth heavy section where you can't fight back. Because you don't know where to look, it involves poking into every corner to find what you need, with danger at every turn. Fortunately I've done it all already, and have the maps and routes you need to find all the drugs as quickly as possible and minimize the risks involved.Th

  24-09-2026 18:12 via gamesradar.com

The Razer Kiyo V2 Pro is the world's second 4K60 webcam, and it's finally a true successor to the Kiyo Pro Ultra launched at the start of 2023.

• Discord admits it's taking gambling sponsors, rushes to fix "extremely popular age assurance update"

  24-09-2026 18:04 via gamesradar.com
  
  Fully aware that everyone hates the new age verification update it's crowbarring in, Discord has doubled down in a post that's come right as the company confirms new gambling ads being served to the users it simply must age-protect. Discord co-founder and CTO Stanislav Vishnevskiy previously apologized for the my-way-or-the-highway positioning of the new age restriction policy. In a September 23 Twitter post, the Discord account, acknowledging that the rollout has seen numerous bugs, writes: "Wh

• In Control Resonant, It’s The Tiniest Details That Continue To Matter Most

  24-09-2026 17:58 via gamespot.com
  
  Control is one of my favorite games ever. Six years after release, one of the things that sticks with me the most is a pencil. Within your first few seconds of playing, you happen upon your first memo. It's located at a security checkpoint and outlines a number of items that are not permitted inside the government building you've just entered. These seem expected enough: laptops, weapons, various smart devices, and so on. The final two list items sound much stranger: one being No. 2 pencils

• Gamercard review

  24-09-2026 17:45 via gamesradar.com
  
  I’ve tested enough handhelds at this stage to know most device makers like to play it safe. The Gamercard isn’t remotely one of those handhelds, and that’s hardly surprising considering it shares a lineage with the very man who pioneered the microcomputer that arguably kicked off a whole gaming industry in the UK. That inventor is none other than the legendary Sir Clive Sinclair of ZX Spectrum fame, and his nephew, Grant Sinclair, is carrying the mantle within the portable cons

• Stranger Than Heaven Studio Made The Tupac Resurrection Less Weird By Not Using AI

  RGG Studio's Stranger Than Heaven is certainly living up to its title, as the decision to resurrect the late rapper Tupac Shakur as a character in the game was perceived as odd when it was first announced at Summer Game Fest. In a new update on the game, RGG Studio revealed more details about the game's cast, including a brief description of how it revived Shakur using traditional research methods. The main takeaway is that the Yakuza and Like a Dragon developer managed to avoid making the casti

  In preparation for Remedy’s upcoming third-person action-adventure Control Resonant, I began my third or fourth replay of its predecessor. Despite my love for the original Control, with its floating workers and teleporting rubber ducks, I eyerolled at the idea of tackling one particularly large boss–it’s a giant anchor that shoots clocks and I refuse to elaborate. However, Remedy added a slew of accessibility options post-launch that have made Control more comfortable

  One of the earliest Silent Hill: Townfall puzzles that's likely to stump you is in the pharmacy. Simon needs a locker code to continue the story, but the answer is hidden behind some rather obtuse clues--the kind this series made its name on, frankly.

• Duskfade Makes Boss Fights Feel Poignant

  24-09-2026 17:11 via gamespot.com
  
  Duskfade passed by last month without too much notice. To the extent that it gained attention, it was for its Nomura-like character design that appeared to be aping Kingdom Hearts. And while that isn't inaccurate, it also feels like an unfair simplification. Duskfade is very little like Kingdom Hearts, more reminiscent of a PS3-era action-platformer than an action-RPG. Its gameplay is composed mostly of really satisfying platforming with occasional, merely so-so combat encounters. But what reall

• Horror game hiding is my nightmare, but Silent Hill Townfall's CRTV vision gives me the confidence to fight back

  24-09-2026 16:00 via gamesradar.com
  
  I love Silent Hill. I love the tension of exploring the twisted nightmare forms of real environments, pursued by bizarre creatures eager to make me one more body lost among the fog. Shifting the setting from Americana to Scotland with Silent Hill: Townfall, laden with UK-specific '90s details, made me incredibly excited. Even so, despite holding a candle for Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and more, I'm a scaredy cat at heart. Many horror movies are off the cards for me, and there's one gaming mecha

  There’s something about a spine-tingling atmosphere and the fear of being scared that draws me into playing horror games. There’s something captivating about removing the power fantasy some video games have and putting you into a more vulnerable, hunted situation, and Silent Hill’s tension makes those frightening shenanigans even more terrifying. When I saw Silent Hill: Townfall was changing the formula by Resident Evil 7-ing the franchise, I was intrigued, and now I can wholeh

  Clearance in Control Resonant is broken up by different levels, each of which requires an associated keycard. Some levels of Clearance are accessible as part of the main story, while others are found as part of optional side quests in which different levels of clearance are required to progress.

  May the odds be ever in your favor as we return to Panem for The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping. The upcoming movie acts as a prequel to the original saga, telling Haymitch Abernathy's tragic origin story. Katniss' mentor in the original movies is a jaded man from his own experiences in the arena, and this story sums up exactly why that is. Based on the novel by Suzanne Collins, the new movie brings back director Francis Lawrence, who has helmed all of the Hunger Games movies apart from th
