It’s bittersweet that the best time to play Destiny 2 in years coincides with its end, but I’m happy for the new players who get to experience its most liberating iteration yet
When Bungie announced the final update for Destiny 2, I felt relieved. It surprised me as well. As someone who’s spent the past six years (and over 3,000 hours) battling humanity’s enemies across the solar system, you’d think that news of my favorite MMO’s end would fill me with sadness. But no, just a bittersweet…
This massively ambitious The Witcher 3 mod aims to recreate its biggest cut questline, and you could be the voice of Geralt of Rivia
The Witcher 3 isn’t exactly short of stuff to do, but I nonetheless lament that one of its most ambitious questlines never made it into the final game. Not only because it would have delved much more deeply into The Catriona Plague—a disease ravaging Velen that mostly serves as a background event in the final…
Palworld 1.0 won’t wipe your data, ‘but you should’ says Pocketpair’s publishing boss
As announced at this year’s Summer Games Fest, Palworld 1.0 arrives in less than a month. The launch version looks like it’ll introduce a lot of new stuff to Pocketpair’s Pokémon-inspired survival-crafting game, and with all those additions comes a question: will Palworld 1.0 require players to start again from scratch, or will you be…
Review: Dark Alien In Deep Space (Vectrex) – Survival Horror Straight Outta 1982
I’m an evil alien. One of the coolest things about the Vectrex community is how many homebrew games have been made. There were 28 retail titles released during its lifetime; as of now, a conservative estimate would put aftermarket titles at around 150; it might even be over 200. We honestly do not know, because…
Dying Light 2 is a platform now, as the Breach update opens up Techland’s zombie survival game ‘even more to UGC content’
I didn’t like Dying Light 2 much when it launched back in 2022. But I can’t deny that Techland has really committed to supporting and turning around its controversial sequel. Over the last four years, Techland has reworked the game’s parkour system, added Volatiles to Villedor’s nights, injected its combat with greater oomph, and added…
Don’t expect the Death Stranding movie to retell the story of the games, as its director says the film will be set in his ‘own corner of the world’
The Death Stranding movie was announced way back in 2022—a length of time that may well have worked out for it given how videogame movie adaptations are suddenly on a hot streak. The project is still in its early stages and the specifics are being hashed out. But one detail has recently been confirmed by…
Random Game Saturday: Neo Geo Cup ’98 (Neo Geo Pocket)
We got the kick. As the globe gets stuck into yet another thrilling World Cup, I’m pulling out a relevant title for this week’s Random Game Saturday – the pint-sized masterpiece that is Neo Geo Cup ’98. Originally released for the monochrome Neo Geo Pocket back in 1999, this is a very loose adaptation of…
Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (13th June)
Direct inspiration? What a week, eh? With every other showcase under the sun taking place last week, we knew it was only a matter of time before Nintendo followed suit. And follow it did. This week’s Nintendo Direct revealed first looks at the likes of Ocarina of Time, Xenoblade Genesis, and Nintendo Switch Sports Resort,…
