Cities: Skylines 2 system requirements

You might have heard thatCities: Skylines 2requires a beast of a machine to run. While my PC is hardly an apex predator, it is pretty beastly. It runs things okay, but there are some graphical quirks that have me puzzled. Nonetheless, here are the requirements the developer, Colossal Order, suggeststhat you have. Minimum: Recommended Note that the recommended requirements probably won’t get you 60fps at 4K resolution.

E3 09: Burch n’ Davis play Rabbids Go Home

Ashley Davis and I playedRabbids Go Homewith only one expectation: it would be odd. In this sense, our expectations were met. Though we didn’t really know what genre the game would be, or what its premise was, or how it’d play, we (after watching another player grab a Rabbid’s head in what appeared to be a character customization menu, contort it using screws, and inflate one of his eyes using an air pump) played through what can only be described asJackass…with bunnies....
