Big Hops is a charming platformer with some great movement and a classic vibe, but most importantly it lets you rotate several bugs for science

I wouldn’t call myself a big platformer buff, per se, but I do like to partake on occasion—I simply cannot resist the allure of kicking back with a controller and collecting something. I’ve especially become a fan of the wave of indie platformers that’ve cropped up as a mainstay of PC Gaming: Games like A…

Pimax Crystal Super review

Even in the year 2025 where it’s relatively commonplace, VR still feels like a futuristic progression for gaming. VR headsets are becoming fairly popular, but the dream of putting on a headset and seamlessly teleporting to an immerse new world, while my lounge room fades away, is yet to be realised. While modern headsets have…

Battle Suit Aces review

This has to be the most cheerful game about aliens destroying the universe that I’ve ever played. Often making Lego Star Wars look like Andor, Battle Suit Aces is a hugely heartfelt sci-fi visual novel. The fact it’s a great deckbuilder too is just showing off. Need to Know What is it?

Because of AI ‘memory’s become sexy again’. That’s what Micron told us as the alarm bells for the RAMpocalypse began ringing in 2024, but we just didn’t listen

Nexus Mods kills its multiplatform mod manager in favour of its Windows-only Vortex app: ‘We were competing with ourselves instead of solving the actual problems’
