It was all about Time Crisis and The House of the Dead. Time Crisis hit me harder overall. This rail shooter takes you through different missions across the series. Each mission typically has three stages, and each stage has four areas you fight through. I have never finished any of the games, but I still…
Nothing’s wrong with the G-Diffuser. I grew up on Star Fox and Star Fox 64 (or Starwing and Lylat Wars as they liked to be called in Europe), but it’s safe to say that my initial response to the reveal of Star Fox (2026) was…mixed. I’m still not convinced it’s going to set the gaming…
And you can play it now! Since its original release on the Neo Geo AES/MVS in 1996, the first entry in the Metal Slug series has been reissued on many different platforms over the years. Not only did it get a set of Japan-exclusive ports for the Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn in the late…
Breakdown Complete. Star Fox‘s newest release is on the horizon, and today, Nintendo has shared a new overview trailer to remind us all what’s in store. The trailer (first released on Nintendo Today!) provides a similar rundown of the game’s new features that we first saw back in the surprise reveal Direct, but there are…

Never one to be short of hyperbole, at a press Q&A with the Nvidia CEO of course talk of the new RTX Spark SoC was on the menu. The Nvidia RTX Spark (AKA N1X) is a chip built in partnership with MediaTek, combining a custom Arm core (though quite how custom it is, I’m not…
The Unknown Journey continues… When Square Enix originally announced that Final Fantasy VII Remake was coming to Switch 2, it came with the promise that Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and its eventual sequel would also be coming. While Remake established itself as one of the finest and most advanced titles for Nintendo’s new platform, there…
And it’s already announced its first project. Harbour Masters 64, the group of creators renowned for their incredible PC ports of Nintendo 64 games, has announced it is upgrading the technology it uses to work with Nintendo GameCube games, as spotted by SteamDeckHQ. This means we could eventually see more Nintendo GameCube-to-PC ports in the…
Baldur’s Gate 2, and likely the original Baldur’s Gate, are getting remakes, we recently learned. Wizards of the Coast has even brought BG2’s co-lead designer back. It’s exciting news, but we still have no idea what shape these remakes will take, or how liberal the team is being when it comes to changing things. Well,…
This may be hard for my colleagues and friends to believe, but I actually regularly use my Stream Deck. A little box with reprogrammable buttons that sits alongside your keyboard and mouse, I’ve found it a handy way of getting to certain tabs, to start and stop recording, and for generally being a bit more…
