Category: Games February 13, 2026 Why the Blizzard Showcase Was the Just the Beginning of a Massive 2026 Joe Skrebels, Xbox Wire Editor-in-Chief For the last few weeks, Blizzard has been going big. Blizzard Showcase brought together the four key titles – Overwatch, Diablo, World of Warcraft, and Hearthstone – and gave the space to…
Non-canon fodder. News that Konami is following up the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 with a Master Collection Vol. 2 was very welcome, but hardly the most surprising reveal of the year. Still, seeing MGS4 available for a system other than a PlayStation 3 feels weird, at least for gamers of a certain…
There was a long period of time where the phrase ‘ray tracing’ was almost inescapable and slapped onto all the prettiest-looking games. However, as the memory crisis continues to devastate hardware prices, and game performance gets even more unpredictable, optimised games have become a real sign of a quality launch.

Your alternative, however, was the murky, audio nerd-inhabited world of XLR, which required the use of a separate interface to connect a microphone to your PC. XLR is still the gold standard for professional recording gear, but the world of studio-style recording can be…
I adore the Yakuza games. You explore a small slice of Tokyo, get into constant OTT fistfights, and help weirdos with bizarre problems. Like, say, distracting a bunch of children so a living statue can sneak off to take a dump without traumatising them. 2009’s Yakuza 3 sees recurring protagonist Kazuma Kiryu quitting the yakuza…
Fallout, so the large box that PC games used to come in when life was good tells me, is a post-nuclear roleplaying game. It’s also, it turns out, a post-nuclear tabletop roleplaying game, a fact I think I’ve never really consciously registered until now. But it’s fixed in my mind now, because Humble is selling…
