BioShock’s Floating City of Columbia, Translated to Fallout 4

Is it exactly like the Columbia from BioShock Infinite? Nope—but that Columbia never had to survive nuclear annihilation and 300 years’ worth of wear and tear. So it’s still rather well off, considering. Built by Girlplaysgame (via Eurogamer), the settlement manages to look like a post-apocalyptic Columbia thanks to a variety of mods, including GPG’s…

There’s a nice mix here of character art, environment stuff and even some animation tests, which we don’t get to…

Element Is An RTS For People Who Don’t Have Time For RTS Games

Element describes itself as “a realtime strategy space game for people who don’t have time to play realtime strategy space games.” I like where this is going.
