Ironhammers writes: It’s a short one this week, namely due to the fact that there’s been few new releases lately. However, we manage to pull out a few news topics such as; a tablet from Pierre Cardin, Notch vs Bethesda, the launch of a Tropico 4 demo and Red Orchestra 2 being delayed. We also discuss what we’ve been playing, which is very little… although Bobby does discuss a little Trucks & Trailers goodness. Finally, we wrap up with our question of the week, which thanks to the lack of games lately, asks: “What PC games are you looking forward to?”
Pete Hines is retiring from Bethesda Softworks after 24 years.
Im glad he leaving. Bethesda has been terrible under his leadership. Redfall, Starfield, Fallout76 and the list goes on an on. His leadership style is outdated. Hopefully, MS bring someone in that knows what they are doing.
I interviewed at Bethesda once, and while there were some very smart mid level team members, the upper ranks (EP/VP/Studio Head) were a total boys' club. The Madmen series ego in that lunch was stiffling.

Pete Hines was against locking out the majority of their console playerbase (ps gamers). Probably disgusted at the hypocrisy of white knight Phil assuring PS gamers that they can still play COD. Acquisition goes through, Hines goes out.
Goodbye Pete.
i wonder if he was asked to leave.
im pretty sure not everyone was on board with the acquisition.
The Minecraft community are calling for a Mob Vote boycott, labelling it "lazy" and even creating anti-Mojang propaganda to rally players.
“One user explained the community’s sentiment perfectly, sharing how “the fact that they’re a year off and add like, two mobs, a few blocks, and some bug fixes is absurd. I’ve seen modders do that s**t in WEEKS. and then… they open a mob vote as if they can’t just add all three.”
They can’t even get a current gen version out the door 3 years in. Mojang is a joke anymore.
They are owned by MS who don’t know what the difference between good and bad moves , good to bad games even. The one area MS is good at is monetizing games.
Popularized by Doom in 1993 and still making video game haters gnash their teeth today, first-person shooter games are the best thing to happen to gamers since pizza rolls. So here are 15 underrated first-person shooter games you may have missed.
Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.
Lol
All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.
XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games
It's all about Path of Exile, booooyeeeee!!
