Unreal Tournament

Some of the most iconic FPS games ever made will lose online services at the beginning of 2023.

On last night's The Game Awards ceremony, Digital Extremes announced the launch of Warframe on the Epic Games Store and a special Unreal Tournament weapon skin bundle.

Unreal Engine 4 is seriously blurring the lines between game development and actual cinematography as Epic once again dazzled the GDC crowd with a real-time ray tracing demo made by Goodbye Kansas and Deep Forest Films called 'Troll'.

Epic Games have announced that $500,000 has been paid to the final recipients of Unreal Dev Grants, which completes the company's goal of giving $5 million to developers using Unreal Engine 4. That's not the end of their support though.

Epic Games have been firing on all cylinders for a while now and the latest news from the company saw them acquire Serbian company 3Lateral, who've been working with Sweeney and Co and specialise in human character modelling and animation.

Epic and Improbable, the maker of SpatialOS cloud platform, announced setting up a $25 million fund for devs who will be affected by Unity's changes to their Terms of Service, even though Unity claim the change only affects Improbable.

I swear to god if Epic keep up at this tempo, they may as well file for sovereignty of the Epic State or something because the company is earning $2 million daily on Fortnite alone and their worth was estimated between $5 and $9 billion.

This weekend we take a look at some of the games that have aged beautifully. Whether that was because of their story or their graphics, the important thing is that they are still a joy to play.

FPS games have a long and proud history. Here is a selection of old-school shooters that are a must play for all discerning fans of the genre, most of them from a time before even WASD was an established convention.
