When playing a game based in the Wild West, there are certain sounds I expect (and yearn) to hear; tremolo, acoustic guitar, saloon piano, dusty slides and possibly a touch of Mariachi music, If I’m lucky.
Desperado III has all of this and manages to throw some surprises into the mix as well. On a personal level, after covering so many albums of varying genres and styles, it spoke to the string-twiddler in me to hear a full instrumental album of music that featured (tasty) guitars as the main focal point in terms of instrumentation, Yee-haw!
Your first steps into Roadwarden’s unnamed peninsula are timid and paranoid. Anyone who’s played a dark fantasy game will steel themselves for untrustworthy inhabitants, death lurking around every corner, and your character forced into tough moral decisions for some ill-defined greater good.

There are several recommendations in FIFA 23 that affect everything from shooting to dribbling. Surprisingly, unless a new agreement is struck, this will be the last FIFA game produced in partnership with EA.
The venerable football series seems to want to go out on top by including real next-gen features that should greatly improve gameplay.
It's time to adjust and start practising with FIFA 23's many new features and improvements.
White Day was something of a legend for a long time, I would see many videos and articles talking about it, marking it as one of the scariest games to ever come out.
It was only available in Korea and was so scary that some people emailed the developer to ask them to make it less scary so that they could complete it.
Now, I have no idea how true all the legends are - but it’s always been a game I desperately wanted to experience.

Everyone Can is a fantastic charity full of lovely people who help others with disabilities to improve their quality of life through the power of technology.
When I heard about this fantastic charity and was asked if Games Freezer would support it by doing a gaming marathon at this year's Game Together event I obviously said yes to such a fantastic cause.
By playing Elden Ring across the weekend of the Game Together 2022 event we raised a whopping £180 for this charity and we are proud that we were able to make a small difference to this worthy charity who do so much good.
I think I’ve only ever played one truly awful quiz game – downloaded from the Nintendo eShop, natch – and so it almost feels like it’s impossible to make a bad game based on the quiz show format.
That said, it is very much possible to make games that don’t stand out from the crowd – and that’s kind of the high-wire on which Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader teeters.

Another Bitmap Books offering means another deep dive into some aspect of video game history. I own Go Straight, the publisher's love letter to side-scrolling beat 'em ups and it's a thing of coffee table-straining beauty.
This 540-page monster delves into what is probably the second most famous one-on-one fighter franchise, SNK's venerable king of Fighters series. This book represents the latest in Bitmap Books' ongoing relationship with the company, following in-depth looks at the Metal Slug series and a visual history of the Neo Geo. This relationship gives the publisher what looks like full access to SNK's archives, as well as the ability to interview what must be most of the past and present contributors to the series.

Championship Manager 2 has been on my list of games to play on YouTube for years now and finally, I have pulled my finger out and taken the job of Nottingham Forest Manager.Come see how my season unfolds in these short sharp Champ Manager vids.
Rich has had a few weeks with the Steam Deck and wanted to take you through the UI and the OS and also to play some Elden Ring on the Steam Deck. Come take a look.
Seeing the term ‘roguelike golf adventure’ when I read a preview for this game had me very intrigued, it’s not a combination of words I thought I would ever see, it also combines two things that cause grown adults to curse, break the objects use to play it and utter the words “that’s it, it’s a stupid game, why the hell did I ever start playing this?
Where the hell are my blood pressure tablets… OK, just one more try”
With the decidedly iffy-looking Gotham Knights due for release in the coming weeks, we thought we'd take a look at some of the best games that the superhero genre has to offer.
We intended to showcase a diverse offering of titles but ended up with four Batman games and six Spiderman games. So to challenge ourselves we decided to make it spicy.
Not too spicy though, the original title of the article was "Top Ten Superhero Games That Don't Feature Batman or Spider-Man" but apparently Spider-Man is in everything even resembling a Marvel game and good Batman-free DC games simply don't exist.
So with all that said, here are our top ten Webhead and Caped Crusader Lite SuperHero games.
You can’t talk about No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle without discussing the first game.
Suda51’s 2007 punk demo tape of a game was all unsanded edges, wonky controls, and enthusiastic but half-baked mechanics.
All that was delivered was a healthy serving of passive aggression towards the player, forcing them to grind through intentionally tedious minigames to earn the right to fight a selection of ludicrous bosses.
This made it something of a surprise when No More Heroes was a monster hit on Wii. Three years later Desperate Struggle landed, with the franchise’s ‘difficult second album’ a smidge more conservative but way more polished.
Does it being ‘better’ sacrifice part of No More Heroes’ soul?
The debate has been raging since Desperate Struggle landed in 2010, with many fans still salty that the sequel dares to be… * gasp * f-fun?
After covering a couple of G4F releases recently (Road ’96 and the Haven), I was keen to learn more about this French label, as they had incredibly diverse releases on their site.
I was lucky enough to get in contact with Content manager Rémi and Marketing Assistant Yoann to learn more about their history, focuses, triumphs and ideals.
Scathe is an intense, blood-soaked FPS where quick reflexes are the key to surviving the bullet Hell labyrinth that stands between you and your ascension. Rip through the underworld's deadliest demons and collect the Hellstones with drop-in/drop-out online co-op gameplay.
After weeks of anticipation and teasers, indie hit Vampire Survivors finally has a release date… for its release date!
The launch date for the 1.0 version will be announced on the 29th of September.
To apologize for the amount of teasing of the big launch, developer Poncle will also release a new patch today (Thursday 15th depending on when you read this)!
Patch v0.11.3 brings the new super rare weapon Super Candybox II Turbo, plus the extremely powerful new Arcana XXI - Blood Astronomia, and officially introduces the super glitchy secret character “missingN” that can now be unlocked normally (instead of editing the game files to unlock them lol).
The GXT 981 Redex is just as good as its wireless variant, the GXT 980 Redex Wireless (launched in March of this year). It is a lightweight gaming mouse featuring Kailh switches that last up to 80 million clicks, adjustable DPI, and RGB lighting

Rich received a cool press box through the post for Dyschronia : Chronos Alternate so he decided to make an unboxing video to show you all the nice loot he got given :)
Dyschronia: Chronos Alternate takes place in the city of Astrum Close where the crime rate is only 0.001%. A collective mentoring system ensures that residents of the city remain calm and safe, eradicating any want to commit violent or illegal acts.

Atari Mania sees players take on the role of Caretaker of the Atari Vault, the repository for all classic Atari games.
However, one day, chaos is unleashed as dead pixels suddenly appear in the Vault and begin wreaking havoc.
As showcased in the groovy new teaser trailer, familiar and treasured games begin to warp, mutate and combine into a series of increasingly crazy challenges!
Those puzzles which will instantly make us sag forwards and sigh at the floor.
For me, it’s light refraction puzzles. I CAN NOT abide them. Every time I come across them in a game, I shut my mind off to enjoyment and – with gritted teeth – power through, just to get to the next section.
I’ve - again - chatted to my GF colleagues and they’ve responded with the puzzle types that make them yank out clumps of their own hair and offer it as a gift to Satan; clock puzzles, book puzzles, statues, jigsaws, sliding puzzles...it’s all there.
Ahhh, porn in video games. It’s not something that we cover here at GF too often, but the other day I was talking to my GF colleagues, and the topic of our introductions to saucy games came up.
Sweet Transit is a unique city builder where the railway is king and trains are the sole means of transportation. Quaint villages will expand to bustling cities, farms to industrious factories, and steam-powered rail to combustious diesel... and beyond in this interconnected, train-driven world.
Rich finally got his Steam Deck through the post and decided to do an unboxing video as he was very excited about getting hips deep into the wonderful world of Steam Deck!
Voyage is a dream-like video game that drops you into a world with little to no introductions and leaves you to work out how to traverse a beautiful world.
Playing Voyage is like being trapped in a watercolour storybook with mystical tinges of story interwoven into the puzzles that will leave you wondering what will come next and what is going on in this world.
My immediate thoughts went to Journey, LIMBO and Brothers: A Tale Of Two Sons when I began playing this intriguing puzzle platformer that leaves you agog with its beauty and the atmosphere that is created through visuals rather than words.
In Lost In Play, you will get to Go on a feel-good adventure with a brother and sister as they explore dreamscapes and befriend magical creatures. Lost in their imagination, Toto and Gal must stick together and solve puzzles to journey back home. This whimsical puzzle adventure game will make you feel like you're playing a cartoon!
