“More news will be issued later on”. The Paprium saga feels like a tale as old as time now. Initially available to pre-order back in 2017, this Genesis / Mega Drive side-scrolling beat ’em up took years to finish development, only to be released in very small numbers—certainly not enough to cover the pre-order campaign….
“It had been completely wiped from my memory”. Yuzo Koshiro has composed music for the likes of Streets of Rage, ActRaiser, Castlevania and Etrian Odyssey during his glittering career, as well as numerous other games. In fact, he’s been so prolific during the past few decades that he’s actually forgotten about some of the games…
They say detective work is primarily about sitting in front of a computer, and if so, have I got the desktop for you. Armed with Nut OS 1.1, the Cashew PC offers speedy net surfing and thorough database searching – all without the bloat of a modern Windows machine, or the sluggishness of a genuine…
I consider it high praise to say Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has good fast travel, because I don’t know anyone who hates fast travel as much as me. For years I’ve railed against the ways sandbox games lean on fast travel to paper over boring maps or uninspiring traversal tools and celebrated games that bake…

It’s a pretty great time to have a ravenous appetite for a good spy thriller. Sift through the mountain of streaming guff and you’ll find more than your fill. Want something sexy and slick? Mr & Mrs Smith will sort you out. Ever thought Gary Oldman would be great as a washed-up spy in desperate…
I’ll be honest, I almost passed on writing about Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2‘s datavault update. I like libraries as much as the next introvert, but they don’t exactly make for gripping headlines (unless it’s a library of digitised videogame magazines, that stuff rules). But then I discovered the datavault update doesn’t just expand your…
“M-M-M-Maaaaario?”. One of the best reasons to play the Luigi’s Mansion series is the simple joy that comes with exploring new, spooky environments. Truly, the locations are the star of the show. The first entry in 2001 was arguably too short and a bit too easy and repetitive, but its titular mansion was a compelling…
When I first became self-aware in Heart of the Machine, I had the option to immediately murder the humans near me and rush out into the city. I didn’t. I waited, snuck out, and started copying myself into a pack of other android bodies. I/We fled, hid and built a mainframe in a sparsely populated…
V Feethand is a Cyberpunk 2077 mod that exchanges V’s hands for feet. Here’s a picture. (Image credit: CD Projekt Red) Still with me? Great. Per its author, who lists themselves as “me” in the Created By box and “resetygk” in the Uploaded By box, it uses a foot model taken from the less gnomically…
