If there's one game I've been having a hard time waiting for this year, it's - ironically - While Waiting, the new fidgety puzzle game from the makers of 2021's gorgeous Moncage. I say 'fidgety', as this is arguably about as far away from a traditional puzzle game as you can possibly get. For example, each of its 100+ scenarios aren't there so much to be 'solved' as to be...

At heart I suspect this is down to two reasons. One: I often... Read more ›

Like a lot of Unreal Engine 5 games, Silent Hill 2 stutters and it stutters a lot. Why is it happening? Can it be fixed? Looking for answers on this, I found myself tumbling down a rabbit hole, with this game - and others based on Unreal Engine 5 - presenting issues even more concerning than big lurches on the frame-time graph.
