"Alienware has had something of a mixed year. Back in April we took a look at its Area-51 m15x, a 15.4in gaming notebook boasting some serious power, and it left us suitably impressed that Alienware had managed to cram such high performance components into a comparatively small chassis. More recently, however, we were distinctly underwhelmed by the Area-51 Desktop Gaming PC, to the point that we wondered whether Alienware's once unique desktops had become something of an anachronism. It's lucky, then, that the company has another notebook to come, the new M17."
WTMG's Leo Faria: "A Difficult Game About Climbing is obviously frustrating, and I don’t exactly think it’s a fun pasttime, but it’s exponentially more enjoyable than the horrendous Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy. It’s actually beatable with enough trial and error. Its mechanics, whilst not exactly polished to the brim, work as intended, with no intentional input lag. It’s still clearly meant for Let’s Play youtubers to film themselves losing their minds over it, but it can still be a passable challenge if you’re up for the task."
WTMG's Leo Faria: "I loved that New Star GP ended up being nothing like what I was expecting from it. I thought I was going to get a simple and straightforward love letter to Virtua Racing, only for it to be something more akin to the best F1 racing games from the mid to late 90s, with a perfect blend of accessible physics and simulation elements. New Star GP is adorably retro in its visuals and vibes, but it’s got some surprising amount of depth and an interesting career mode. A little hidden gem in the racing scene, without a doubt."
Get ready for quick and intense battles in Nexus 5X, a 4X game that condenses the fun of long campaigns into hour-long matches.
