Feature: 2018's best piano
This advent calendar doesn't function on its own, you know. There are a bunch of us in here cranking levers, jumping up and down on switches, hurriedly shovelling words into furnaces. All so you can open day 11 and find out what's inside...

We're into the double digits! Look how far we can see from up here. What's that in the distance?

Feature: Definitely rats
Huh? What's that noise, coming from behind door eight of the RPS Advent Calendar? Ah, it's stopped. Oh well - musta been rats.

Podcast: Every game released in November reviewed very quickly*
There are too many games. November is over, but it was a big month, and our giant collective digi-trough runneth over with shooters, stabbers and clickers. It’s repulsive and very wasteful, quite frankly. Thankfully, the RPS podcast (aka the Electronic Wireless Show) is here to snort up the good ‘uns and stamp all over the bad ‘uns. This week the pod squad are running…
Feature: Our videogame dads
Peek behind day six of the RPS Advent Calendar and you'll find our very best best videogame dads. What do they have to teach today?

Feature: Party in the city where the heat is on
As Will Smith would say, "Welcome to Miami". It's home to a race course that's home to high-octane racing, as well as the setting for the second mission in Hitman 2. This will be your first step into some of the more complex sandboxes. Miami is vast, essentially split into two sections: The loud and crowded racetrack and the quiet and empty marina. You're on…

Hitman 2 guide: location guides, tips and tricks, challenge lists, silent assassin walkthroughs
Little else is quite so frighteningly intimidating, yet wonderfully rewarding, as stepping into a new Hitman game for the first time. While the first level is a fraction of the size of the others, these vast assassination playgrounds allow you to explore, poke around, and get up to all sorts of murderous mischief. It's the kind of game where discovery is half the fun. For…

Feature: Perfectly seasoned
The game that lies behind door number five is perfectly seasoned. Can you smell that? It smells like...
Feature: IF you like videogames
True fact: you can only take two RPS team members with you on any journey. Do you take John, who knows where to stand on the platform so he's in front of the doors when the train stops, and Alice Bee, who always has an open bag of cheddar at hand? Yes, that's exactly who you take to open door number 4...
Feature: No Bounty bars, guaranteed
Day three of the RPS Advent Calendar has big claws and teeth to fight through.
Feature: Get it before someone else does
Day two of the RPS Advent Calendar holds a tasty treat, if you can reach it.

The RPS advent calendar has begun! Pull up your trousers and open door number one...
Feature: It begins tomorrow!
The die has been cast. Purple smoke is billowing from the chimney of the RPS treehouse. The Alices have shuffled out of the choosing parlour to deliver the news. The best games of 2018 have been selected and trapped behind the doors of an advent calendar.
Feature: Listen now or be carded
ID please. Hm. No, sorry, says here you’re into platformers. No entry mate. No, listen, I’m sorry, but this is an episode of the RPS podcast, aka the Electronic Wireless Show, and it specifically says right up there – look – that it’s all about Artifact. You know, the new card game by Valve based on Dota 2. Look, I don’t make the rules,…

Feature: Listen now, because you'll be dead soon
The world ended this week. We documented the whole thing. But the RPS podcast, the Electronic Wireless Show, will not go quietly into the abyss of human history. It's not going to be felled by the atomic blast of Fallout 76. It’s going down screaming. Screaming about the best post-apocalyptic games out there, that is.

Feature: Everything you need to know
Warframe is almost impressively obtuse; to the outside observer rather impenetrable. The free-to-play loot shooter has over five years of additions since its launch, layering system upon system upon system. All of which have an impressive amount of depth to them, but it is also almost aggressively uninterested in making sure newer players understand any of it. There’s Warframes to mod, guns and swords and…
Feature: Variety is the spice of life
Warframe frames and mods: obtaining new frames, how to acquire the Revenant frame, equipping mods
Each of the frames in Warframe aren’t terribly complex to understand. They all move in basically the same way and have four unique abilities. There are 36 different frame types, which are basically character classes that you can swap between them at any point; assuming you’ve unlocked them first, but they can also be tweaked further with mods. This is of course not counting the various…
