I’m an evil alien. One of the coolest things about the Vectrex community is how many homebrew games have been made. There were 28 retail titles released during its lifetime; as of now, a conservative estimate would put aftermarket titles at around 150; it might even be over 200. We honestly do not know, because…
I didn’t like Dying Light 2 much when it launched back in 2022. But I can’t deny that Techland has really committed to supporting and turning around its controversial sequel. Over the last four years, Techland has reworked the game’s parkour system, added Volatiles to Villedor’s nights, injected its combat with greater oomph, and added…
The Death Stranding movie was announced way back in 2022—a length of time that may well have worked out for it given how videogame movie adaptations are suddenly on a hot streak. The project is still in its early stages and the specifics are being hashed out. But one detail has recently been confirmed by…
We got the kick. As the globe gets stuck into yet another thrilling World Cup, I’m pulling out a relevant title for this week’s Random Game Saturday – the pint-sized masterpiece that is Neo Geo Cup ’98.

Direct inspiration? What a week, eh? With every other showcase under the sun taking place last week, we knew it was only a matter of time before Nintendo followed suit. And follow it did. This week’s Nintendo Direct revealed first looks at the likes of Ocarina of Time, Xenoblade Genesis, and Nintendo Switch Sports Resort,…
Make some space. One of the major announcements during the Direct broadcast earlier this week was the news Square Enix is finally releasing proper versions of Kingdom Hearts on Nintendo’s platforms.

Ready for adventure? Earlier this year, Bethesda announced it would be bringing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered to the Switch 2 in 2026. Read the full article on nintendolife.com
If you had told me just a few years ago that there was about to be a Silent Hill renaissance, I would’ve called you a liar. But it’s happened; and after back-to-back horror bangers in Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill F, Konami has another developer new to the series working on its next game,…
The resuscitation of Xbox has begun in earnest, but there’s still much to be done, and still great uncertainty: Console exclusives are back but to what extent remains unclear, and of course the “reset” for a better future will almost certainly mean putting hundreds of people out of work. And it’s possible that even bigger…
Life sim player tradition (or stubborness?) dictates I often attempt to build a real house—my childhood home or one I drove past last week—and yet in The Sims, I always wind up frustrated that the series’ grid-based building has never been able to quite replicate actual floor plans. I’ve become totally enamored with building in…
