Jump up, Superstar. The latest Japanese charts from Famitsu (via Gematsu) are now in and it has been a pretty quiet week — though that hasn’t stopped a familiar face from returning to the top spot. Yes, everyone’s favourite plumber and occasional elephant (as niche of a group as that is) is back at number…
Hello! Last year was a busy one for the small team at Hello Games, with lots of No Man’s Sky updates and the announce of Light No Fire. We have big plans for 2024, and we’re starting the year off with a very different kind of update. We’re calling it Omega, and for the first…
Kitchen nightmares. The biggest challenge facing PlateUp! is the striking similarities to the other culinary stress simulator, Overcooked. Ghost Town Game’s hugely popular series has been fairly unique in its genre up until now. Making sure all orders are right, delivering dishes to tables in time, and washing up after — this rhythm will be…
Over the years, we’ve seen many Xbox players on console, PC and Game Pass venture into No Man’s Sky’s universe and lose themselves in all there is to do, in some cases for hundreds of hours.

It appears that the US Department of Defence has…
“Never be the third best shooter”. PlatimumGames’ Vanquish garnered plenty of positive notices when it launched back in 2010, but it perhaps didn’t achieve the commercial success it truly deserved. As is the case with some of the company’s most beloved titles, it has never received a sequel, and its cult status has plenty to…

Avatar: The Last Airbender should be a prime cut of gaming beef. Elements-based martial arts, a wide open world with plenty of established lore, a gorgeous art style, and enough nostalgia to build a franchise on. Yet despite being such a solid piece of kids’ T.V it transcends its demographic, being a good watch for…
It’s rare that I ever feel confused by gear but the Sony Inzone buds have somehow managed to make me feel fully perplexed every day since I’ve gotten them. There’s an overly ambitious 1990’s quality to just how many ideas are at play here and how many fail to fully land. The box itself comes…
