Souls-based games have become a revered genre for gamers seeking a challenge, an immersive world, and a truly rewarding experience. With brutally tough combat, intricate level design, and atmospheric storytelling, these games demand patience, skill, and perseverance. Games like Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and Nioh have set the gold standard for the genre, each offering its own unique twist on what it means to be “soulslike.” But beyond these titans, there are many more fantastic entries that deserve a spot in the conversation. So let’s dive into the best souls-based games ever made and discover what makes them so legendary. Elden Ring – 2022 Elden Ring, released in 2022, is a groundbreaking collaboration between FromSoftware and acclaimed fantasy author George R.R. Martin.

Throughout history, there have been hoaxes so audacious that they could make even the most skeptical person question what they believe. From claiming a giant, prehistoric human was discovered in a New York backyard to convincing the world that aliens were invading the Moon, humans have a knack for creating elaborate stories that challenge our understanding of reality. Consider the famous Piltdown Man, a fossil that turned out to be a con artist’s attempt to fool the world into thinking he’d found the missing link between apes and humans—spoiler alert, it was just a mix of human and orangutan bones. Then there’s the Cardiff Giant, a giant stone man buried in a farmer’s field, which turned out to be an 1860s version of a prank. We can’t forget The Great…

If you’re curious about the future of the car, it’s always worth keeping one eye on Elon Musk. When he isn’t designing rocket systems that can land vertically, from orbit, in the metal embrace of towering scaffolding, or designing new eco homes, he still has the ability to make other automotive brands seem rather dull and overly bureaucratic. The launch of his new Robotaxi, or Cybercab – whichever you prefer – is the most recent example of reinventing the humble taxi, even if the launch was a microcosm of AI technology carefully wrapped up in some pre-planned routes around Warner Brother Studios. But I digress, look past all the social media hoopla and this could be one of the pivotal moments in the automotive world. Firth though, this is not…

Congratulations on your cover for FHM France! How do you feel? It feels fantastic and I am very grateful for this opportunity. It is always an honor to be published for FHM, and now on the cover of France. Thank you FHM and Arthur St. John for the amazing photo shoot and opportunity. Where were you born? Where do you live now? I was born in Linz, Austria, and I am still living there. It is a nice city between Vienna and Salzburg. Not too big, but big enough, and we are lucky to live in beautiful surroundings with lakes and mountains not far away. How many different languages do you speak? German is my mother tongue, and I speak English, Spanish, and a little bit of Finnish. In school,…

In 2024, the conversation surrounding Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs), often colloquially referred to as UFOs, has escalated to unprecedented levels. Once relegated to the realm of science fiction and conspiracy theorists, the topic now sits at the intersection of scientific inquiry and government transparency. The idea that UAPs might represent alien visitors is both thrilling and perplexing, raising questions about humanity’s place in the universe. But skeptics point to a significant hurdle: the staggering distances between stars. With even the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, sitting over four light-years away, the energy and technology required for interstellar travel seem insurmountable. Could alien civilizations possess capabilities far beyond our understanding? Or are UAPs a manifestation of advanced human technology, natural phenomena, or something else entirely? As governments worldwide begin to disclose…

Ferrari doesn’t do the supercar tiers in the way McLaren does but if it did, the new F80 would sit in the same column as the Enzo and LaFerrari – in other words extremely exclusive, exotic and infused with motorsport goodness. However, unlike its ancestors, the new F80 makes do with a relatively puny 3.0-litre V6, rather than a V12. It seems strange considering that Ferrari recently gave the world the 12 Cilindri supercar, and sharing those development costs over two nameplates would have made a lot of financial sense. Instead, the 3.0-liter V6 hybrid aligns better with Ferrari’s Formula One power unit; same configuration, identical displacement and electrical assistance. Even the F80’s power output of 1184 is very close to that of a modern-day Formula One car. The power…
