Atomic Games' class-based shooter Breach gets reviewed by GS.
Excerpt: "Otherwise, the game has a distinct Counter-Strike feel to it; it’s the closest to the classic class-based team shooter that has been around. It’s probably due to the uniforms, which resemble the CT/terrorist outfits worn in Counter-Strike, and the fact that Breach is a very earthy game. The maps and destructible environments give the game the same grittiness that one feels when playing Dust or Italy. The game also has the slow paced twitch feel of Counter-Strike – there is a lot of maneuvering and positional strategizing that can explode in brief fits of violence. It remains to be seen whether Breach can have the same addictive “one more round” gameplay as C-S, though.
Regardless, Breach is a welcome addition to the class-based persistent shooter genre, and inexpensive as well at a nicely priced $15 (1200 MSP). The game will probably find its niche, and hopefully Atomic Games will regularly support Breach...

Lots of video games get canceled due to studio closures, lack of resources, and other issues, but we would have loved to play these 10 canceled games.
Not only was P.T. an awesome demo, but just the way it was dropped on us and eventually revealed as Silent Hills was one of those really special moments in gaming. I don't even want to be reminded of it now.
Konami screwed up. They could easily cut the Silent Hills ending cutscene and sell it for 5/10 bucks and I would easily buy it again. The demo was tons of fun and terrifying each time, I loved to make friends play
Plot Twist: PT was a tease, Silent Hills was fake, the Konami fallout was staged, and Death Stranding is actually Metal Gear Solid VI. 🤯 #kojimawoulddothis
That would be the long con to end them all, but I don't know if even Kojima would do all that. Then again, Metal Gear Solid 2 was a thing.
I just want a Getaway 3. I mean Sony has nailed the cinematic, open world genre for a while now. A return to the Getaway with the tech they got now would be so good
Six Days in Fallujah was a game I would have been interested to see how it would have turned out. SOCOM like tactical shooter with destructive environments. Lots of work on it and then it was just scrapped.
On April 3, 2019, QC Games unexpectedly announced that both the studio and Breach were being shut down. As of this writing, Breach is still technically playable, but QC Games’ accompanying FAQ makes it clear the game’s servers will eventually be turned off for good.
