Black Friday live: I've already found hundreds of early Black Friday PC gaming deals as the sales kick off today
Live Amazon, Newegg, and Best Buy have all launched their Black Friday sales.




Valve has announced three new pieces of Steam hardware: the Steam Machine, Steam Frame, and a new Steam Controller. PC Gamer's Jacob Ridley was invited out to Valve HQ in Washington to try them out.

Time to switch off the lights, turn up the volume and revisit one of gaming's most iconic horror shooters: F.E.A.R. - First Encounter Assault Recon, which turned 20 in October. Released in 2005, we take a look back at what made Monolith Productions' heart-pounding FPS special, delving into the films that influenced it, the electrifying combat, and its innovative approach to AI.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 being released is an achievement in itself. With one of the most disruptive development journeys that a game has ever had, this sequel to such a cult classic had a lot to live up to. PCG's Fraser Brown is here to tell you his thoughts on what is good about the game, where its strengths lie and which aspects left him wanting more.

Europa Universalis 5 is Paradox’s most ambitious grand strategy yet — complex, deep, and surprisingly fun. At Gamescom, we sat down with the devs to talk EU5’s new features, historical depth, and how they’re making this massive strategy game more welcoming than ever.

Borderlands 4 might just be the best game in the whole 16-year-old series. But there's a catch. Several catches, in fact. Yet despite some baffling design choices, woeful performance and one of the most terribly-conceived UIs in recent memory, I still adore this game - warts and all.

How do you choose what size gaming laptop to buy? Well a pair of our gaming hardware experts are here to give you the run down on which is best for what. But do they agree? From budget, bulkiness, and aesthetics, to personal preference and practicality, they have got you covered.
