Want to know what the best PC controller is? We’ve tested all the best current game pads to help you make the decision as to which top plug into your gaming PC.
You could argue you've already got the best PC controller plumbed into your machine when you've got a trusty keyboard and mouse. But, sometimes (and only sometimes) having a specific gaming controller to hand can be quite useful. Whether it’s a great wired or wireless pad, an official or third-party device, having a well-built, comfortable controller can really make the difference to your game. So it’s important you make the right choice.
Pads are great, but it’s also important to make sure you’ve got the .
We’ve checked out the official Microsoft Xbox One and Elite pads, as well as the excellent Sony DualShock controller. But the likes of Scuf and Razer are still making decent alternatives if you’re looking to peacock with a funky design or just want a host of different buttons at your thumbs’ disposal.
But there are specific controllers for other game genres too. A flight or space-based sim really demands a quality flightstick, especially one with a separate throttle for those BSG Viper-esque, non-Newtonian dogfights. And if you’re a dedicated racer then a steering wheel, with good force-feedback, can shave valuable seconds off your in-game lap times.

Of course, the game's single-player campaign will still be playabale.

We also learn some information about the single-player campaign Squadron 42's release date.

Max Pears, Level Designer on Cyberpunk 2077, spoke about this system in an interview with ShackNews, and went into some interesting details, going on to give examples for what sort of stuff this system will allow you to do and what kinds of opportunities it will open up. We have this really cool class system, Pears said, where we have things like Netrunner, Techie, and Solo, but what we do is weve got this fluid class system. Each of these is gonna have different abilities. So a Netrunner can hack into peoples brains, [like] in the [E3 2018] demo. You see that we knock out a guard, and we hacked into his brain, and this unlocks sort of different routes for the player, he continued. Each class is gonna have some great abilities. So the fact that youre going to be able to put your own mix of these classes together to make your own cyberpunk, thats gonna be awesome. We look forward to that.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is the next title in Activision’s illustrious FPS series. It is set between the events of Black Ops 2 and 3, but marks a huge departure for Call of Duty in that it’s the first entry to not feature a traditional campaign. In its place is a battle royale mode called Blackout, which joins the core multiplayer and zombie mode to make it the most multiplayer-focused COD yet.
Owing to its setting, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 promises a return to a near-future where drone warfare is commonplace - not quite boots on the ground, but not space warfare either. Working on the 15th instalment in the main series, and the first with a story arc to make it past three games (four if you count World at War), developer Treyarch will have a tough job shrugging off any series weariness while still appealing to hardcore Call of Duty players.

So, what can we expect from Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 when it deploys on PC? Here is everything we know about Black Ops 4, from its release date and upcoming beta, to the gameplay and modes we want to see. Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 release date

Christian Picciolini is a prominent former member of several American white supremacist groups. Having been recruited at the age of 14, he understands well the tactics such groups use to seduce and indoctrinate new members. During an AMA session on Reddit last night, he cautioned of one such tactic in particular: preying on marginalised youths in multiplayer games.
Asked about recruitment tactics in his day (he was himself ensnared in 1987), Picciolini says "we sought marginalised youth and promised them 'paradise'. Today they are using nefarious tactics like going to depression and mental health forums, and in multiplayer gaming, to recruit those same people."
Pressed on how this plays out, Picciolini says "they drop benign hints [of their racism], and then ramp up when hooked." This is a good illustration of why low-key or 'dog-whistle' racism is so insidious. Picciolini says this happens in most major multiplayer games, including "Fortnight [sic], Minecraft, COD, all of them."

What goes into bus simulation? The same ingredients that go into your favourite triple-A action games, it turns out. There’s an open world, but it’s no backdrop to gunfights or fire propagation - here it provides an urban landscape to drive your passengers across safely and punctually. And there’s an AI director sending commands to hundreds of NPCs, but they’re not enemies - simply the civilians you’re picking up, dropping off, and sharing the roads with.
Bus Simulator 18 developer stillalive looked to Unreal Engine 4 for the newest iteration of its game. The studio wanted to go bigger, drawing on Epic’s expertise in level streaming, the technical trick that powers so many open worlds. And for the roads, stillalive made use of a piece of software you may already be familiar with - Cities: Skylines.

But first: remember how Left 4 Dead’s zombies had an unseen director? Bus Simulator 18 has its own, pushing the zombie-like commuters this way and that in order to make the streets around you convincing in their simulation of city hustle and bustle. Left 2 Drive
