As part of a new “FPS Fridays” series on Twitch, legendary shooter designer John Romero streamed New Blood’s 2018 hit, Dusk, one of the first and most influential indie “boomer shooters” in the genre’s recent revitalization. The short of it? Romero seems to have had a blast. The Doom dev easily slipped into the rhythms…
No plans for Game-Key Cards “on titles where we are the manufacturer and publisher”. Raidou Remastered CE isn’t a standard, numbered Limited Run Games release, but we were still surprised to see that the Switch 2 Collector’s Edition they’re offering retails for a whopping $249.99 USD and doesn’t include a full game on a cartridge….
I’ve always been a fan of The Finals‘ destructible environments, although I’ve sometimes felt its desire to be a proper, grown-up multiplayer shooter obstructed the simple pleasure of ripping a building apart Red Faction: Guerilla style. But that looks set to change, at least temporarily, with the game’s newly added limited-time mode. This is a…
If it wasn’t already clear, we’ve formally arrived in the age of the meme movie. The Minecraft Movie was basically a sequence of memes strung together, and Michael Bay is making a Skibidi Toilet film. Now, omnipresent creepypasta The Backrooms is also getting an adaptation for the silver screen. The film, which is based specifically…
Give it some credit: it’s not every game that lets you edit the text in its installation wizard while you wait for setup to conclude. But Big Rigs dares to be so bold. It is also so bold as to allow you to accelerate to literally infinite speeds by holding reverse, to have absolutely zero…
Needs more Dixie Kong. Now that multiple Nintendo theme parks have been built (with potentially more coming down the road), it’s likely on the minds of many whether they should save up the large amount of funds to make a trip out for this. While we can’t make that decision for you, we’ve written in…
Lightyear Frontier seemed well liked when it launched into Steam early access last March, garnering a Very Positive rating from players for its ingenious synthesis of first-person mech piloting and farming simulation. But it seems there’s been some discontent bubbling beneath that big blue thumbs up. In announcing its imminent Shifting Gears update, Frame Break…
There’s a case to be made that the Bronze Age collapse has the coolest name of any historical period. Sure, the Dark Ages might be moody and mysterious, while the Renaissance has flair on its side. But the Bronze Age collapse is pure drama. If your era of existence has the word “collapse” in it,…
Anything but a slow start to life. Level-5’s new release Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time made its official debut on the Switch and multiple other platforms this week and it’s already hit its first major sales milestone. Following a mostly positive reception from players so far, the game has now shifted over…
I never thought I’d see the day that an Amsoft game, more especially Harrier Attack, would be getting an enhanced edition. It is one of the best games I have ever played on the Amstrad CPC 464, and to see it remade for the Amstrad CPC Plus by Chris Perver fills me with retro joy….
