“I wish I had thought of ten million dollars, because he would have said yes”. To celebrate the surprise announcement of a new Star Fox outing, we thought it would be a good idea to dig into the archives for previous features we’ve written on the series. Jez San occupies a pretty unique place in…
Days before committing the world historic sin of putting quest markers into The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind, modder RPGKing117 already earned himself a pardon: He created a mod that lets you play The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind on the in-game Pip-Boy and computer terminals of Fallout 4.

Blood Vial, a self-described “retro-inspired micro-FPS” that hit Steam earlier this week, is a lot like Splatoon—except instead of starring charming squid teens swimming through the ink spread by their paintguns, you play as a leaky, gun-toting vampire diving through the freshly-spilled gore of murderous pseudo-Catholics on a blood-soaked quest for revenge.

Hit(monlee) after Hit(monchan). In the years to come, I’ll look back on March 2026 as a key turning point in my life. From that moment on, my daily existence can be chronologically sorted into two camps: the time before Pokémon Pokopia‘s Title Theme was stuck in my head, and the time after it. I knew…
After around a year and a half in early access, Blindfire—a multiplayer FPS whose main thing is that its arenas are all incredibly dark, forcing you to rely on your other senses (and tech, naturally) to catch enemies—got its full release. Which was something of a bittersweet event for its devs at Double Eleven, who…
Mouse pads are admittedly something I don’t tend to think about too much. If it feels good under the palm and doesn’t become a hindrance to my movement, I’ll continue using it. But, alas, I’m not a pro, and it turns out they get through some of the best gaming mouse pads like an actual…
Prokop Jirsa didn’t plan for any of this. “There was no 10-year plan to become the lead designer or director,” says the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 lead designer and one of two recently-anointed creative directors at the game’s maker, Warhorse Studios. “Never.
