Four Years Later, Crusader Kings II Keeps Getting More Stuff

Crusader Kings II was released in 2012, and promptly became my Game Of The Year. And that was in its paltry vanilla state!

There are already a number of mods out there which alter the appearance of Fallout 4, but they don’t go quite as far as this tweak, which makes the game look like it came from Telltale (or Gearbox) instead of Bethesda.

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate Is A Beautiful Video Game

A lot of very nice words have (surprisingly, given Unity’s qualities) been written about the latest Assassin’s Creed game, but there’s one thing a lot of them overlook: just how pretty this video game is.

Just Cause 3 Mod Gives You An Infinite Grappling Hook

In the Just Cause series, your grappling hook is love, life, and all that jazz, but it does have limits. Making it infinite turns the game into (even more of) a demented, goddamn wonderful cartoon.
