Boundary, with its zero-g FPS combat, looks like the better Call-of-Duty-in-space multiplayer experience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjBG5TmMgJI I can't say that for sure until I've tried it ...
We're in the middle of the Steam Game Festival: Spring Edition now, and there's dozens of free demos to play. I like the word "free", as well as the idea of trying out upcoming games in a virtual event space, so I had a go with about 15 demos, which is just a small slice of what you can try. I didn't like everything I played, naturally, but I ende...
