Paladins: Champions of the Realm - Beta Legacy Review #4
Originally published on 07 August 2016. Paladins: Champions of the Realm is Hi-Rez Studios' entry into the now popular hero-based FPS genre, similar to the likes of Team Fortress 2, Overwatch & Battleborn. Paladins is a fun game, unfortunately marred by a high number of poor design decisions, a small cast and some fairly large balancing issues. Paladins is, at its core, an FPS Hero Shooter, sporting a number of fairly well-designed characters across the board, and each of them play differently from one another. They also divvy up into categories, similar to other titles in the same genre - these being Tanks,
Delisted Case File #001 | Prey (2006)
A Note from the Author:Once upon a time, (not all too long ago for some of us), there were stores lined with disc cases, cartridges and memory cards. These are now old relics of the past that, at one point in time, gave our own collections a sense of ownership- and alongside that: Permanence. However, as years have passed, much of what was has been replaced. Gone are the days of Funcoland (once a giant and pioneer for the used-game resale market), Game Crazy, and other second hand retailers, with the few remaining turning to Trading Card Games and kitsch merchandise
JETRUNNER Review
It's time for parkour! Not like I'm a huge fan or anything, but I do enjoy some parkour games, and I totally fell in love with Mirror's Edge Catalyst, that one is definitely my favourite parkour game. I also played a few games that are only about parkour, with obstacle courses and time challenges, so yeah, here we are now. JETRUNNER is a new parkour game released on September 4th, 2025, developed by Riddlebit Software and published by Curveball Games.The interesting part is... we actually have a story here too! Of course it's not super deep or anything, but it's definitely more
Beyond Sunset First Impressions Review
You tired of new FPS games trying to steal all your money, dumping 1000s of god awful cringy skins that don’t fit the game’s vibe? Tired of FOMO driven weekly garbage manipulation tactics? Just want a fun, polished, fast-paced, badass motherf**ing game? Then look no further...Beyond Sunset has what you want in this dystopian era of gaming. From the first mission you can already tell this game respects your time and your wallet. No battle passes, no overpriced cosmetics, no filler. Just pure neon soaked cyberpunk action built on old-school shooter DNA with a slick modern edge. The game drops you in as Lucy,

I know for a fact there are at least 2 game modes though.
There is payload and capture the point
SilverKurumi replied to HypnoticSilence September 26, 2016There's only one Game mode. Payload and Capture the Point are mixed as one hybrid game mode.
DjGus_PT October 02, 2016After patch 34, pure payload is now available to play, and a "new" champ added, along with skins, voice packs, etc etc etc
SilverKurumi replied to DjGus_PT October 08, 2016Yeah, I played it, Payload is a lot more fun.
Still gonna wait on a re-review when the game is off beta tho

Game has a lot of things in it to like ,but i'm not a fan of micro crafting and survival . Hope it's gonna be possible to still enjoy the story and other stuff in the final release without getting too bogged down in the bits i don't like.

Update:
An old batch of keys has become unstable, and we're working through them with customers as we speak. We're switching to a more reliable source, so key validity should improve in the coming days.
Thank you, everyone, for your patience and understanding as we trying to improve key stability.September 23, 2026 -

I was luck too, being able to snag it before it went missing! A few others as well, I'll eventually get to.
Thanks for taking the time to comment, and thanks for the link! I'll absolutely give it a look!August 20, 2026 -

From what I've read, it doesn't sound like it's a hugely different experience from the original anyhow.
I mainly specified because that's the version I played.
You could probably aim for one episode at a time to keep things fresh in between other gaming goals and also as a way not to torture yourself by tackling all of Nightmare mode at once.That's one reason I was happy to have played on Luna - no achievements! So I don't feel compelled to go back and do that... I just glance at it occasionally as I'm scrolling... Should I? Eh... It's okay.
It does sound like a fun challenge, but I have other things to play. Like the sequel.August 05, 2026 -

I started the original one a while ago and only a bit but never had a chance to finish. Shame, remastered is Epic exclusive on PC. Thanks for the review and reminding me my backlog :)

What a classic!
The fact I discovered in the public library of my city and rented the game when I was little. Because I didn't had internet and the rental was a couple days, I made an ISO file with Nero Burner to play the game when I pleased.
I was also lucky that I bought games in computer magazines(ComputerHoyJuegos) and Quiosks. Like having: Commandos 2, PcFútbol2001, Grouch(Rocko's Quest), S.W.A.T 3/4, Patrician III, Imperium III(Viriathus campaign being hard AF), Ground Control, NYR - New York Race, Age of Empires I & II + expansions + Mythology(+Titans), etc...
I was the lucky few that managed to buy this game before being delisted on Steam for a few €uros.
BTW if you are looking for "dead games" or want to contribute on a wiki useful for the consumers of the future, the Stop Killing Games community made a wiki with all the games that are being delisted, unplayable or in risk on dying soon:
