THE WITNESS SPEED RUN FINISHES THE GAME IN JUST OVER 25 MINUTES

http://www.pcgamer.com/the-witness-speed-run-finishes-the-game-in-just-over-25-minutes/

I haven't played The Witness yet, but nearly everyone else at PC Gamer has. It's notoriously tricky, so it's a surprise to see impressive speed runs trickling through already. The current record is held by speedrunner Azorae, who has managed to complete the game in 25 minutes and 53 seconds. Contrast that with the work of fellow PC Gamer scribe Chris Livingston, who (in his own words) "spent 23 minutes driving a boat back and forth past a rock I thought had something to do with something, but didn't."

 

THE WITNESS PATCH WILL (HOPEFULLY) FIX MOTION SICKNESS PROBLEMS

The Witness is a heck of a good puzzle game, and apparently selling quite well, which is good news for the creative future of Jonathan Blow. But it's making some people sick, too: Not in the sense of a “Wow, I can't believe I spent 40 bucks on this 3D Sudoku thing” jag of buyer's remorse, but actually feeling physically ill as the result of motion sickness.

Despite releasing on February 2 (which is tomorrow in most parts of the world), Ubisoft hasn't said much about the forthcoming 'Black Ice' DLC for Rainbow Six Siege. We know a bit about the two new operators, but we only know these details due to a series of leaks. Now, Ubisoft has released some new info on the map via an unannounced update to the French version of its Rainbow Six site, though it hasn't yet done so for the English version.

Good Lord, Xbox, you're leakier than Edward Snowden in a hedgehog enclosure. Yesterday, the Italian Xbox Facebook page suggested the existence of an open beta for The Division, and now the Xbox storefront is listing Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens before we've heard a peep from TT Games or Warner Bros.

American Truck Simulator is releasing early of all things, arriving this very day some hours before midnight CET. That's what you get when you shell out for private haulage, I suppose.

 

BATTALION 1944 SEEKS FUNDING TO RETURN THE FPS TO WW2

http://www.pcgamer.com/battalion-1944-seeks-funding-to-return-the-fps-to-ww2/

Doing things on a shoestring, going back to basics, taking on a challenge with spunk, skill and a dash of new tech—that's the traditional telling of the British war effort, so it's fitting that a team from Derby, UK, is stripping down the FPS and taking it back to 1944. Bulkhead Interactive is seeking £100,000 to complete Battalion 1944, a throwback to Medal of Honor and Call of Duty 2.
