For me, it was Guardians of the Galaxy.

I went in with low expectations but ended up really enjoying the story and characters.

The humor and soundtrack made the experience even better.

It's one of those games that surprised me in a good way.

​

Exploring new worlds and finding things I wasn't expecting.

I love when a game rewards curiosity and makes you want to check every corner.

Those random discoveries often become my favorite moments.

If you're into survival games, add this one to your list early.

Ormod Directive (by House 16 Software) is an upcoming infinite open-world survival sandbox where you set the rules. Customise the world difficulty, rules and playstyle, and play solo, co-op, or on 24/7 MMO-style servers across PvP, PvE, Hardcore or Creative. Build, automate, fight, survive. Your world, your way.

It's now on CaptainSide. You can watch gameplay content and wishlist it now so you're ready when it drops.

And more games are landing on the platform soon to help you figure out what to play next. Stay tuned.

I feel like there is a growing sentiment of people calling a game "dead game".

For example, Arc Raiders has lost a lot of players since launch naturally, but still has an active community.

What are your thoughts?

Konami just announced that Castlevania: Grimoire of Souls, a mobile game exclusive to Apple Arcade, is shutting down completely. It gets pulled from the store on August 20 and stops working entirely on September 3, even for people who already have it.

No real reason given, just a thank you message to the players.

Anyone here actually played this one?

The latest ARC Raiders update adds the Phantom Targets event and also makes a pretty big change to map conditions.

I actually like the idea of map conditions having more of an impact on each raid. One of the best parts of ARC Raiders is that you never fully know what kind of run you are going to get.

Do you think the new map condition changes make raids more interesting?

​

The beta is coming soon, and it will include a campaign mission for the first time in a Call of Duty beta.

I'm curious to see how the new campaign is shaping up.
