We are following the events in the flooded areas with sadness and deep sympathy and are shocked how many people have lost their lives, their livelihood, or their life's work. Our thoughts are with those affected and their families who are still - after the water slowly recedes - holding out in uncertainty and fighting for their belongings. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32976304/63bba9aaf4ca1507294280aa242a612f8e88d72a.jpg We are full of pride and admiration for the service of volunteers, farmers, firefighters, soldiers, police officers, and disaster services who are working day and night in the flooded a

El Hijo – A Wild West Tale by HandyGames, international indie-publisher from Giebelstadt, Germany was voted Best Family Game by the Der Deutsche Computerspielpreis jury. Precisely because of its setting and accessibility, as well as the unique atmosphere and emotional story, the game is equally enjoyable for younger players and adults alike. The jury has been convinced by the exciting Wild West adventure which families can experience collectively. The spaghetti-western stealth game has already been named Best Indie-Title by the gamescom-Award in 2019. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32693284/a0325d98908850

News, reviews, a silly quiz that usually makes two men very cross: The PC Gaming Weekspot is RPS’ weekly podcast that recaps the last seven days in PC gaming. As you found out last week, we here at Rock Paper Shotgun have launched the RPS Podcast Network (two podcasts definitely means we have a network now). While the Electronic Wireless Show offers you some wonderful takes and japes that centre on one particular topic in video games, The PC Gaming Weekspot is your recap of the last seven days in PC gaming.

I come to you today with important news: there is in fact more than one video game out this month. Yes, that one video game is quite a biggie, and it’s definitely the one most will be picking up this December, but that doesn’t mean everyone is champing at the bit to play it. Maybe you’re not interested in the Deus Extra RPG that is Cyberpunk 2077. Perhaps you want gangsters, underwater puzzles, two-headed dogs! So, if you’re one of those people, and you’re looking for a new game to play over the festive period, look no further than this list of the top 10 video games to play on PC this Decem
