BT:Rise of The Triad harks back to the golden age of First Person Shooters, when we didn't worry too much about things like realism. Reloading was unheard of. Aiming down the sight was for chumps. Cover was the picture on the front of the box where the floppy disks were kept. Everyone ran around at seventy miles an hour. AI was so stupid it sometimes didn't even bother to shoot at you. Bugs and glitches were more common than hot dinners. The checkpoints made you want to claw your own eyes out.
OX writes: "Battlefield 1 is out this week, and it takes the military shooter series to World War 1. This conflict was one of the most bloody and horrifying in modern history, but that doesn't preclude it from including an unexpectedly moving section where you play as a pigeon. It's not the first time a game has let us briefly, bizarrely be an animal, as Show of the Week discovers."
News - Soundtrack from Andrew Hulshut of Brutal Doom and Rise of the Triad.
Outside Xbox:
" Merry Fallout Christmas! In the spirit of the season, we bring cheer to the residents of Fallout 4's Sanctuary by decking the halls of the tumbledown shanty town. Some would say a light-up Christmas tree that requires three large generators to power is excessive in a town that doesn't have a clean water supply, but those people are grinches whom you must ignore. "
