I tried to create the perfect zombie apocalypse in this intensely detailed outbreak simulator, and sorry slow zombie fans, fast zombies are just better

DeadOS is an indie game developed by Benn Powell, focusing on a realistic simulation of a zombie apocalypse. Inspired by cutscenes from Resident Evil 3, Powell aimed to explore the moments typically overlooked in zombie narratives. The game allows players to manipulate various parameters, such as city size and population density, to observe the consequences of different outbreak scenarios in a procedurally generated 3D cityscape. The simulation initially featured a simple infection model but became more complex with the addition of weapons and law enforcement, affecting human behavior during the outbreak. Players can guide characters through the chaos, engaging in actions like fighting zombies and scavenging for supplies. After nearly seven years of development, Powell plans to enhance the game further, including features for player-designed cities and community-created content. He aims to create a detailed zombie outbreak simulation, likening it to the Dwarf Fortress of undead scenarios.

Crysis 2 had problems, but it got one thing right: destruction

Crysis 2 features a narrative centered around Alcatraz, a U.S. Marine caught in an alien invasion, guided by Prophet from the original Crysis. The game emphasizes destruction, transforming New York into a chaotic battleground, although it suffers from simplistic AI, a convoluted narrative, and clichéd characters. The nanosuit's functionality is reduced compared to its predecessor, limiting active abilities and creativity in gameplay. Players can use stealth and engage in direct combat, with standout moments during defensive missions where they assist civilians and demolish buildings to disrupt enemies. However, the final mission is anticlimactic, leaving players unsatisfied with the conclusion. Despite its limitations, Crysis 2 showcases moments of brilliance and potential for innovation in gaming.

Control Resonant dev Remedy didn’t use other triple-A games for inspiration, because “nobody is taking risks”

Control Resonant is a sequel that takes players from the isolated setting of the Oldest House to the reimagined streets of Manhattan, described as a "labyrinth." The game features a new protagonist, Dylan Faden, who can navigate the environment in unique ways. The developers aim for a grounded aesthetic to enhance the supernatural elements and have avoided references from other games to maintain originality. The narrative expands with multiple factions and a variety of enemy types, including a haunted bus. The Hiss remains a central threat, affecting both humans and animals. Dylan will use a radio to communicate with his handler, Zoe, and will encounter audio logs that deepen the lore. Control Resonant is set to launch in 2026.
