March 13, 2019 — Larry Laffer has been navigating the dating world of the 21st century for several months now, and he’s ready to settle down — onto consoles that is! Today, Assemble Entertainment has announced that the charming and humorous point-and-click adventure, Leisure Suit Larry – Wet Dreams Don’t Dry, will be making its way to PlayStation®4 and Nintendo Switch early this Summer!
The most notorious self-proclaimed ladies’ man in gaming history, Larry Laffer, will soon sway his way to consoles with an updated UI and controls optimized for the respective systems. Players can expect the beloved tongue-in-cheek humor that has been the trademark of the Leisure Suit Larry series, with a new twist — Larry must test his tried-and-true moves on modern women, using apps to expand his “reach” in the dating world while showing off his best moves during his dates! Could Larry become the next great Influencer? Tasked with solving puzzles in the hilariously raunchy world set before him, Larry is sure to bring fans — old and new — an adventure they won’t soon forget.
More about Leisure Suit Larry – Wet Dreams Don’t Dry:
Hey ladies, I’m back in business! My latest adventure, Leisure Suit Larry – Wet Dreams Don’t Dry, takes me – whatever the route or twist of fate – from the end of the ’80s directly to the 21st Century and wow, how the world has changed! While my view of the world and women from back in the 1980s collides with modern reality, I’m all set to date my way across the modern world!
In a “point & click” adventure I’d call typical for the genre, we mutually experience how I fall head-over-heels in love with Faith, the assistant to the boss at Prune, a powerful global tech company. Since even dating is done digitally nowadays, the first thing I have to do is to work on my score at Timber, the totally hip, can’t-get-anywhere-without-it dating app where I date women, satisfy their needs, and accordingly pick up points for my Timber profile. And whenever I get a chance in-between, briefly check out a few new beach pix at Instacrap – the 21st century is gnarly!
Key features include:
What a World!: Explore a lovingly designed, non-linear game world set in modern times with over 30 hand-drawn venues
The Digital Age: Use “Timber”, the in-game app, along with an innovative dating mechanism to date women, improve your score at Timber, and ultimately clear the way to get to dating Faith, the women of your dreams
Dating Can be Puzzling: Solve true-blue puzzles and interact with over 30 hand-drawn characters in eccentric, radiant environments
Developed by CrazyBunch and published by Assemble Entertainment, Leisure Suit Larry – Wet Dreams Don’t Dry is a classic point-and-click adventure game that has seen tremendous success following its launch on PC in November 2018, boasting a ‘Very Positive’ rating on Steam. Leisure Suit Larry – Wet Dreams Don’t Dry will be available worldwide for $39.99 as a digital download title, while retail versions will be available in select European countries.
No other game gets me leaning on my couch like a good Trials game. Whenever I play a Trials game I find myself physically moving as if I was actually riding the bike, just to get that extra inch to make it over a barrier or to clear a huge canyon. I have played every game in the series and always look forward to the challenges that the next edition will bring. It took a few years, but RedLynx and Ubisoft Kiev have finally come through with a new version of Trials with Trials Rising. Let’s take a deeper look into Trials Rising to see what has changed in this 19-year-old franchise.
Story
Trials games don’t usually come with a story, Trials of the Blood Dragon being the one notable exception, so there isn’t much to go over here except how the game is laid out. In the single player mode, you begin in North America with the easiest tracks to complete. After completing a few of these earlier tracks, you unlock the Trials University. Trials University is a prolonged tutorial that helps newer riders discover the intricacies of the Trials franchise. The levels in Trials University will unlock as your rider gains levels, this will mean that the skills you learn in Trials University will be fresh in your mind when you need them.
Progressing through the continent will also unlock the Stadium Finals and Sponsorship Contracts. The Stadium Finals are races where you race against 3 other players’ ghosts to see who can reach the finish line first with the fewest faults. The Sponsorship Contracts are generally fun and will help unlock cosmetic items for your rider and your bike.
Unlocking everything in the beginning was extremely easy. Completing the trails at the gold level was easy for me since I have played Trials in the past, but unlocking new stages isn’t based on the level that you completed the previous stage but your rider’s level. You could have reached gold on every race, but if you do not meet the level requirement then you cannot progress until you do. This change, for me, is Trials Rising’s biggest misstep.
Gameplay
The game play of Trials Rising hasn’t changed much at all from the last game. Trials Rising is still a game of using the right amount of forward momentum with the right amount of weight shifting and balance. I used an Xbox controller to play Trials Rising on the PC and it felt like returning to an old friend. The entire game is played using the right trigger for gas and the left stick for weight balance. The new levels in Trials Rising are incredibly imaginative and look gorgeous on the PC.
Trials Rising does introduce a new test to your friendship with the new tandem bike. With the tandem bike, two players can play locally on the stages and each player controls half of the bike’s momentum and balance. This mode is a great addition to the series and brings a whole new look to the stages. Trying to get two people to work together on one bike isn’t easy, but when you complete a harder stage the feeling is great.
What isn’t so great is the loot box system and some of the custom items that you can get. As you level up, you gain loot boxes like what you would find in Overwatch or Apex Legends. A loot box will get you 3 items, which can be an item for your rider, your bike, a sticker, or a pose that will show up on the loading screens. For my first pose, I got the infamous butt-slapping taunt which wore out it’s welcome within the first hour due to the change in music. I like getting items to customize my rider and make it different then the other riders on the screen, but loot boxes have always felt cheap to me and they feel cheap here too.
Aesthetics
Trials Rising looks fantastic on the PC. The levels are interesting, both game play wise and visually stunning. I found myself enjoying the lighting effects as the sun poked through the trees near the track, or the way the Eiffel Tower looked as you slowly climbed up it’s massive girders. The lighting effects on the PC make Trials Rising really pop.
Sound effects and music are exactly what you would expect for a Trials game. The music is fairly solid for the most part, featuring artists such as Anthrax, Motorhead, Stone Temple Pilots and Jurassic 5. There was a lot more artists on the soundtrack that I had never heard of, but that’s not to say that the music was bad. I still remember playing games like Tony Hawk Pro Skater where I loved almost every song and artist on the soundtrack. There are some hits here, for certain, but also some misses.
Final Thoughts
Trials Rising hits all the right marks to make it another great Trials game in the series. While I may complain a little bit about the rider level making the second part of the game a huge grind to unlock stages, the overall game play of Trails Rising is exactly what we need in another Trails game. The addition of the tandem bike is a great way for two people to get into a brawl on their couch, arguing over who it was that wasn’t leaning the right way. The stages are some of the best designed that has come out for the entire franchise, and that is saying something. If you can look past a sizable grind to unlock some of the stages, then I would highly recommend Trials Rising, especially on the PC. Trials Rising is available now on Seam for $29.99.
Lonon, March 13, 2019 — In the world of GT, the virtual 2019 season is set to be just as thrilling as its real-world counterpart. This is in particular thanks to Thrustmaster’s announcement that it will soon be adding two new wheel rims to its racing ecosystem in response to overwhelming demand from their community. “Your Race, Your Style, Your Setup” that’s the philosophy behind Thrustmaster’s ecosystem, which is constantly expanding, month after month, to meet the many requests from members of its racing community and fans all around the world! Thrustmaster, the iconic e-racing brand, has decided to provide even more incredible options for fans when building their dream setup, no matter what style of racing they’re into.
Today, Thrustmaster is thrilled to be putting the final touches on the bridge that it’s been building between the real and virtual worlds. This latest exciting development comes in the form of two new realistic, GT-inspired wheel rims set to be unveiled behind the scenes at the Circuit Paul Ricard: the legendary motorsport race track in Le Castellet, France. On March 13 and 14, 2019, the leading GT racing teams will be on hand to refine their strategies and make the final tweaks before the new Blancpain GT Series season gets underway. Alongside the real tests on the circuit, six Thrustmaster virtual racing setups will be available in pit number 4, allowing users to try out the new wheel rims in the breathtaking game Assetto Corsa Competizione.
The TM Competition Wheel Add-On Sparco® P310 Mod wheel rim has been designed as an official replica of the world-famous Sparco® P310 steering wheel, with a focus on immersion and realism achieved thanks to its unique ergonomically-designed shape, suede grips and various high-quality materials. Designed with performance in mind, it’s the perfect solution for gamers searching for a lifelike sport-style driving experience! This wheel rim has finally been made available as a standalone version, at the request of the Thrustmaster’s racing community and is exquisitely balanced for GT racing It features nine action buttons, two 100% metal paddle shifters, a D-pad with push button, and carbon-style button supports. The wheel has everything racers need to break their own personal records, under the best possible conditions.
The TM Open Wheel Add-On, also sold without a wheel base, has been developed in the style of the wheels on real GT, LMP and LMS cars found on today’s racing circuits. Compact in size (11 inches/28 cm in diameter) this wheel ensures versatile driving ergonomics, and helps users improve their performance. This wheel rim, the lightest ever designed in Thrustmaster’s ecosystem, will allow gamers to experience Force Feedback effects that are as close as possible to real-world racing conditions. The icing on the cake is that both add-on wheel rims are of course compatible with all Thrustmaster T-Series racing wheel bases (sold separately).
Unlike the real-world racing teams and drivers who will be present at the Circuit Paul Ricard, Thrustmaster is no longer in a testing period: this official announcement regarding these two new wheel rims coincides with the launch of pre-orders for both — so get ready, because the fun is about to begin!
The key dates and pricing for Thrustmaster’s latest add-ons are as follows:
TM Open Wheel Add-On:
Pre-orders start: April 4, 2019
Commercial availability: April 18, 2019
Suggested retail price: £119.99
TM Competition Wheel Add-On Sparco® P310 Mod:

March 12, 2019 – The Season of the Dragon has officially taken flight as ZeniMax Online Studios today released the latest DLC for The Elder Scrolls Online – a two-dungeon DLC Game Pack called Wrathstone for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Update 21, a free update that brings a series of improvements and new features, also dropped today for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Wrathstone previously released on PC and Mac on February 25.
Wrathstone kicks off the yearlong Season of the Dragon with two new dungeons – Depths of Malatar and Frostvault. Wrathstone will lead into the events of the epic Elsweyr Chapter, releasing on June 4, that will introduce dragons to ESO for the first time. Each dungeon holds one-half of the ancient Wrathstone tablet, the key that Abnur Tharn later uses to open the Halls of Colossus, accidentally unleashing the dragons upon Elsweyr.
ESO heroes are tasked with fighting their way through the dungeons to retrieve both halves of the Wrathstone tablet. Depths of Malatar will send you to an ancient Ayleid ruin hidden under a secret Imperial fort while Frostvault guides you through a trap-filled, automaton-occupied, Goblin-inhabited, Dwarven vault.

Oslo, Norway – March 11th, 2019 – 18 years! Who would have thought? Today, Funcom is excited to announce that Anarchy Online, the world’s first science fiction MMORPGs and one of the longest-running online games ever, celebrates its epic 18-year journey with the launch of a brand-new 2019 server.
The new server invites members to experience a fresh start– a trip down memory lane, to the early days of Rubi-Ka. Back to level one, in a leet-filled backyard. Dole out punishment on unsuspecting roller rats; take a walk on the Longest Road; or go AFK by a grid terminal for an unnecessarily long time. Get drunk on nostalgia; or, if that doesn’t work, you can always grab a drink at Reet’s Retreat.
A level cap system is in place, and the community at large will have a say in the pulse and progression of the new 2019 server– both in terms of expansion releases and level cap increases. Everyone’s steering this ship together!
“With the launch of the new server, we wanted to give players our unique take on a progression server. I invite everyone to step into the familiar and surprising Rubi-Ka 2019,” said Producer Joshua Mills. “As we continue through the year of Anarchy Online’s 18th anniversary, we wanted to give everyone the opportunity to play in a way that brings together the old and the new, with a few twists mixed in. Thank you to everyone who has made these years possible and I hope you will join us on this brave new journey to Rubi-Ka!”
Released in 2001, ‘Anarchy Online’ shaped the face of the MMORPG genre with its Science-Fiction setting and innovative features, including dynamic missions, item levels, and instanced playfields. A Beta version of a new ‘Anarchy Online’ rendering engine was released last year, and thousands upon thousands of players continue to explore the world of Rubi-ka today.
For more information about ‘Anarchy Online’ or to play for free, please visit the official website at http://www.anarchy-online.com/
