When I was young I used to love playing the very latest in 16bit/32bit racers such as Outrun, Lotus or even XJ220 on the Amiga. It was a time that gave me the feeling of intense speed and near misses without driving a real car and ending up in the local clink. Thankfully if you…
Larger than (Fantasy) Life. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time knows which side its bread is buttered. The original Fantasy Life on 3DS is a cult favourite, but not a bestseller by any means — yet its dedicated fanbase has been proselytising about the game for well over a decade, and it’s those…
Every Elden Ring Nightreign character has a bevvy of interesting and useful perks tied to their name. At first, you may think that the most helpful aspect of every Nightfarer is their minor and major skills, but the more you play, the more relics come in clutch. You earn relics through expeditions, you don’t even…
It’s called ‘Escape The House!’. Released on the Mega Drive and SNES in 1993, Zombies Ate My Neighbors (or simply “Zombies” in some parts of the world) is a run-and-gun classic from LucasArts which rightly has legions of fans, and those same people might be interested to learn that a patch is now available that…
It’s that time again where we look to Steam’s monthly survey and all feel slightly better about our own rigs. Just for starters, I may not be able to afford the latest Nvidia card, but I can still feel a wee bit smug that neither you nor I fall into the 37% of Steam users…
Elden Ring Nightreign is a hard game—no, not just hard, sometimes downright unfair. It’s in a way that’s incredibly charming, mind, but as our own Ted Litchfield wrote last week, it’s “player hostile” or, in other words, occasionally “such bullshit”. I had my own taste of this recently as, while playing with a couple of…
Provided the Kickstarter goal is reached. Takaya Imamura, renowned artist behind the likes of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, F-Zero, and Star Fox may soon be lending his talents to Nightmare Busters Rebirth, an upcoming remake of the SNES run ‘n’ gun 2013 title, Nightmare Busters (thanks, Time Extension). His involvement hinges upon a stretch goal within…
65 years young! Sega is one of the industry’s most famous companies, and it turns 65 this week. The company was founded on June 3rd, 1960, by Martin Bromley and Richard Stewart in Hawaii under the name Nihon Goraku Bussan and would be rebranded as Sega Enterprises, Ltd five years later (Sega’s history technically goes…
Yesterday, TSMC held a shareholder meeting, and in an interview following this the company showed every sign of confidence in its future, regardless of the ebbing and flowing of different AI companies that are some of its biggest customers. The world’s biggest semiconductor company even went as far as to say about AI companies: “We…
AI doesn’t care about copyright. It can’t, obviously, because it’s AI, and not a human being with thoughts and feelings. But it particularly doesn’t care about copyright, partly because the US and UK governments are both pushing to let AI companies scrape data for use in generated text and imagery without a care thrown to…
