Bring on the mods! Fan team Harbour Masters has swapped Hylian adventures for high-flying action in its new ‘Starlight’ project — a Star Fox 64 PC port which is available right now (thanks, VGC). This isn’t the team’s first rodeo — having previously brought Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask and Super Mario 64 to PC…
How Nintendo World Championships helped me ‘git gud’. I’ll admit, I’ve never been fond of speedrunning. The thought of shaving milliseconds off a time in a video game while playing the same sequence over and over sounds, in theory, more frustrating than fun. Sure, as a spectator, there is definitely joy in appreciating the wizardry…
Merry Alex-mas, ya filthy animal. Third time’s a charm, as they say. Yes, we’re back with our third and final look at our video team’s top five Switch games of 2024. It’s worth repeating here that these aren’t necessarily games that launched in 2024, but are merely games that the video chaps played in 2024….

If you’re a fan of miniature consoles and the novel convenience they bring, then unfortunately you might want to just keep ahold of your current collection, because it doesn’t sound like Sega is particularly keen on making any more.

Yet developer Tour de Pizza wasn’t the only team inspired by Wario. Summitsphere’s Antonblast is a wild and wonderful action platformer that…
Set your Alarmos. We’ve been waiting for that sweet Nintendo Switch 2 announcement for what feels like years now — hold on, it has been years — but, as of today, we are finally on the home straight. That is if your ‘home straight’ consists of 100 days to go. We know that an announcement…
Zi-on the first day of Christmas ♫. Well folks, we’re back with another look at some of the best best games that we (that is, our video team) played in 2024. This time, it’s Zion’s turn to reveal the goods, and what a selection of games. There are some truly excellent titles here; a couple…
I’m your fire, at your desire. Ahoy folks, and welcome back to another edition of Box Art Brawl! Last time, we looked at the Wii classic Okami in light of the recent sequel announcement from The Game Awards (woohoo!). Honestly, it wasn’t a particularly close battle: Japan, with its beautiful use of colour and composition,…
