The Witcher 1 is rough, gangly, utterly idiosyncratic, and fine as it is, if you ask me. Nevertheless, it’s due an open-world remake courtesy of the devs over at Fool’s Theory, and it sounds like they aren’t squeamish about updating some of the, ah, more awkward parts of CDPR’s original 2007 classic. In a chat…
Today, we’re happy to announce the latest, full Monthly Games lineup for PlayStation Plus. February’s selection is headlined by Square Enix’s competitive yet ultra-colorful online party shooter Foamstars, which makes its debut exclusively on PlayStation Plus. Joining it is a potent mix of skates and gunplay with the highly stylish Rollerdrome, while Steelrising brings you…
1992’s great schism. Back in October 1992, a schism occurred that sent shockwaves through the British video gaming community – the multi-format console magazine Mean Machines split into two different publications, Nintendo Magazine System and Mean Machines Sega.

Nintendo is a legendarily litigious company—with mods and emulation often falling under the gaze of its burning, all-seeing eye. Nexus Mods has even enacted a unilateral ban on Pokémon conversion mods for Palworld, citing Nintendo’s record of “mercilessly submitting legal challenges.” As is the case with YouTuber Toasted Shoes, who received a DMCA notice after…
ROM dumps, scans and much more besides. You’d be forgiven for not knowing anything about Sega AI Computer, a system released by the company in 1986. There’s very little information about the platform online, but that has just changed overnight thanks to the amazing efforts of Sega super fan Omar Cornut and his team of…
Massive customer data loss is never nice. So, imagine the sinking feeling at multinational car rental outfit Europcar when fully 50 million customer records including everything from passwords and passport numbers to payment details, driver licence numbers, home addresses and emails were offered for sale on a hacker forum. So, that’s pretty much everything a…
