While Stocks Last. No one who has ever worked in retail would compare the experience to a cosy life management sim. I used to have nightmares about stock variance and queues of angry customers who seemed determined to ruin my day as much as they felt I had ruined theirs. Yet, Danish developer Crinkle Cut…
I recently finished rewatching all of the Wire, and on reflection I think Season 2 is my favourite of five. This is in large part due to the tragic character of Frank Sobotka, the stevedore and union leader driven into the arms of organised crime as he struggles to keep his workers paid and Baltimore’s…
Starship Troopers: Extermination has always had a bit of “we have Helldivers 2 at home” energy; ironic considering how much Helldivers 2 channels the tone and ideas of the Paul Verhoeven film Extermination is based upon. While I enjoyed Offworld’s large-scale, team-based multiplayer in my Starship Troopers: Extermination review, it was a frequently uneven experience…

If you’ve scrolled past an ad on TikTok for Nexon’s gooner-looter-shooter The First Descendant you might not have noticed it was made by AI. But if you watch one of them for more than a second, you’ll probably figure it out. Each one features an AI streamer rambling about the new boss Wall Crasher and…

What’s the audience like for a light-touch remaster of a 21-year-old RTS? Especially one that’s being sold for full price? (Though owners of the original do get a 30% launch discount, to be fair.) Turns out, it’s pretty decent. As Relic boasted on Twitter, Dawn of War’s remaster sold 150,000 copies in less than 24…
