After two years of Early Access, RENNSPORT is ready to launch in its final version on consoles and PC. The problem is that the game is clearly lacking in terms of content considering its price tag: €59.99/$59.99 for the standard edition and €79.99/$79.99 for the Deluxe once, which includes two of the future DLC packs, 1100 credits (credits can only be acquired with real money and serve to buy surprisingly expensive liveries - 400 credits for one, knowing that the cheapest pack of credits you can get is 500 and it costs €5/$5) and the iconic Nordschleife (yes, you read it right, you must pay more to get it). Despite having a pretty convincing physics engine and being smooth on PS5 Pro, the competition is fierce in the genre, especially with Project Motor Racing around the corner. Check out our video inside to see what to expect when it comes to graphics, sound and AI (spoiler alert for the latter, it's not good).
As a spin-off episode of the Truck Driver series, Truck Driver: The Dutch Connection is currently only available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The game's launch on October 31 did not go smoothly, mainly due to a multitude of bugs, some of which prevented players from playing under normal conditions. Patches have been released recently and seem to have fixed the most serious issues, but we still feel that the game's foundations are rather fragile. The map is quite small, and while the idea of offering a story-driven experience is quite appealing (the English voice acting is perfectly fine), we weren't particularly impressed by the overall experience. The pace is inevitably very slow (trucks are way to slow when trying to go uphill), the driving sometimes feels a bit off, AI vehicles often drive incoherently, and the implementation of a fatigue and hunger system, although interesting and realistic on paper, is too restrictive, as it often forces you to make detours, especially since some areas, even urban ones, do not offer all the amenities you might need. For example, it's infuriating to see your character pass out at the wheel on the way back to HQ because he hasn't eaten, when there were no restaurants in the area where you had to make your delivery... It's also strange to have to sleep in a hotel instead of being able to do so at a rest stop (there aren't any such places in the game). Finally, music tracks are cheap (no licensed songs here), and visually, Truck Driver isn't up to par either, despite a comprehensive amount of display options and graphics modes on PS5 Pro (kudos to the developers for detailing everything so thoroughly).
The new year of content for The Crew Motorfest began this week, and today we're going to take a look at the very first playlist dedicated to street racing, whose atmosphere is obviously very reminiscent of Need for Speed. Before we share our thoughts, it's worth noting that this new content is available for free, and while you do need to purchase the BMW M3 with in-game credits to participate to it, it doesn't require you to spend your real world money. As for the previous two years, the $/€29.99 Year Pass gives access to a list of twenty cars, which will be added to players' garages as soon as they become available in the game.
Developed by Turin-based Tiny Bull Studios and published by France's DON'T NOD, The Lonesome Guild arrived on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S two weeks ago. Due to the holidays, we haven't been able to bring you a video until now, but we hope you won't hold it against us.

Angry Video Game Nerd 8-bit is obviously a game featuring the famous character created by James Nolf. Fans of this famous American YouTuber will undoubtedly be more receptive to the concept, which takes the form of a new episode in which the Angry Video Game Nerd has to play an (imaginary) NES game. Once the long introductory sequence is over, you are free to choose the level you want to play, each ending with a boss battle, all in a successful 8-bit aesthetic and game design designed to mimic what players in the 1980s sometimes had to face. Expect the full range of tricky situations to overcome, making the tribute as realistic as possible, but fortunately, you can opt for an Easy mode, which is much more accessible when you're just discovering the game and if you don't want to share the same frustration as the AVGN. Most reviews have been pretty positive so far, so if you're into that kind of mood, you know what to do.
