Un-ape-peeling. Donkey Kong Country Returns HD swung onto Switch earlier this month and it’s a perfectly good time. Nothing we haven’t seen before, but still a good bit of fun. That is unless you want to play some of the later stages in co-op, it seems, because fans have discovered an oversight that sucks all…
The biggest game of 2025, if it doesn’t get delayed, is undoubtedly going to be Grand Theft Auto 6: We’ve had a trailer but little else from Rockstar, even though Take-Two’s CEO says the game’s on-track for “fall” (though who knows when we’ll see the PC version). And gamers abhor a vacuum, so GTA fans…
“P-Payback Time, Thorndikkke…”. Welcome to the latest instalment in our nostalgia-inducing column, Memory Pak, where we deep-dive into some of the most memorable moments in gaming – good and bad. Today, to mark the 25th anniversary of Resident Evil 2‘s N64 launch in Japan, Ollie reflects on a curious short comic book story that, against…
The idea of a properly modular, easily upgradable PC is nothing new. After all, Framework has built a business on modular laptops. But it hasn’t gained widespread currency. Maybe now it will thanks to a new modular PC push from none other than Intel. In a blog post last week, Intel bigged up the idea…
DeepSeek, the new Chinese AI chatbot, has had a major effect on the AI landscape (and the stock market) thanks to how efficient it is, and the fact it’s open source. However, as someone who cares more about PC gaming and how the AI can work for me, I decide to test it only way…
All of the remaining Recharged games are also getting two-player cabinets. The coin-op manufacturer Alan-1 has recently released a trailer for a new arcade cabinet based on Missile Command Recharged (h/t: Arcade Heroes). Back in March 2024, Alan-1 and Atari announced plans to release “at least ten” full-sized arcade game cabinets over the following three…
I didn’t think there was much room for more ‘world’s firsts’ in the world of gaming keyboards, especially since we’ve seen some ridiculous innovations in just the last few years. Everything from an 8000 Hz polling rate to Hall effect key switches that have adjustable actuation points and rapid trigger have become the gold standard…
After a rough 2024 that saw development briefly put “on hold” and then resumed a few months later, Fallout: Nuevo Mexico, an ambitious Fallout: New Vegas mod that promised to turn players loose amidst the irradiated wasteland of New Mexico just five years after the events of the original Fallout, has been cancelled. “This project…
Sul sul! The first two Sims games are still exceedingly well-regarded these days, but sadly, actually gaining access to them in a legitimate way isn’t particularly easy. The first was a disc-only jobby, and the second has long-since been removed from digital platforms. Thankfully, with a new report from Kotaku (thanks, Push Square) accompanying an…
