Strider, Bionic Commando: Rearmed star in Humble Capcom Bundle

Publisher Capcom headlines Humble Bundle’s latest pay-what-you-want compilation of PC games, offering up titles like Bionic Commando: Rearmed and 2014’s Strider for as little as $1.

Buyers who beat the bundle’s average purchase price can also unlock a pair of entries in the Resident Evil series, along with other bonuses to be announced at a later date.

Purchases of $1 or more will receive Steam-redeemable codes for the PC versions of Strider, Bionic Commando: Rearmed, Lost Planet 3, and the first episode of Resident Evil Revelations 2.

Bionic Commando: Rearmed, originally released in 2008, is an expanded take on Capcom’s 1988 platformer Bionic Commando. Rearmed puts players in control of a heavily armed soldier who can traverse dangerous territory by grappling across walls and ceilings using his extendable bionic arm, leading to creative platforming challenges.

Strider, released for consoles and PCs last year, updates Capcom’s 1988 arcade hack-and-slash action game with a non-linear structure, upgradable equipment, and a storyline that fleshes out once-vague narrative elements.

Lost Planet 3 is the final entry in Capcom’s third-person shooter series, and Resident Evil Revelations 2 is an episodic survival horror adventure that launched earlier this year.

Players wanting to catch up on Resident Evil series lore before diving into Revelations 2 can pick up the original Revelations by surpassing the current Humble Bundle’s average purchase price. Other beat-the-average bonuses include the Devil May Cry series reboot DMC and 2009’s co-op survival horror title Resident Evil 5.

The current Humble Bundle’s final reward tier, unlocked for buyers who pitch in $15 or more, adds Steam copies of Ultra Street Fighter IV and Resident Evil 5‘s “Untold Stories” DLC pack.

All Humble Bundle purchases give buyers the option of donating a portion of proceeds to charity, with this week’s bundle benefiting Direct Relief and GamesAid. The Humble Capcom Bundle will be up for grabs through October 27th.

3 Xbox Game Pass games you need to play this weekend (May 3-5)
Senua in Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice.

Another weekend is upon us, and you're probably looking for some games to kill time with over the course of it. We're in a bit of a lull right now ahead of a flurry of releases starting next week, so it's a great time to dip back into the Xbox Game Pass catalog and check out some games that you may have missed. There are three games in particular that I think you should check out this weekend if you're looking for something to play.

One is an unsettling adventure that's getting an Xbox-exclusive sequel later this month. The next is a finely animated roguelike indie that recently made its way to Microsoft's gaming subscription service. Finally, there's a relaxing adventure that gives players a lot of freedom, yet is short enough to beat in a weekend. If you're having trouble deciding what to play this weekend, give one of these games a shot.

3 underrated PS Plus games you should play this weekend (May 3-5)
The main character of Tales of Kenzera: Zau stands with two elemental items.

PlayStation Plus Premium and Extra have been around for almost two years, and during that time the subscription service has established itself as an ample competitor to Xbox Game Pass. That means there is a wealth of great games for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 owners to check out if they're looking for something to play this weekend. I think PS Plus subscribers should be looking toward some of the more underrated games in the subscription service this weekend too.

I have three particular picks in mind. The first is an enjoyable Metroidvania that came to PS Plus' game catalog when it launched just a couple of weeks ago and deserves a lot more attention than it's getting. After that, there's an action-platformer that pays homage to series like Ninja Gaiden that you should check out before it leaves the catalog. Finally, there's a PS2-era Star Wars game that fills the niche a recently canceled game would have.

Three phone screens with the PlayStation Stars app.

I wouldn't blame you if you forgot PlayStation Stars existed. In fact, I would guess the majority of people out there have no idea what that even is, but PlayStation's reward program deserves more attention than it's getting.

Launched in the summer of 2022, PlayStation Stars is a program meant to reward players for engaging with the PlayStation ecosystem. You can take on challenges to earn digital collectibles and, more importantly, coins that can be redeemed for games, store credit, and some premium in-game currencies.
