The promise of any Monster Hunter game is twofold—there’s gonna be a ton of meticulously designed titans on offer, and you’re gonna get to smack the nuggets out of them with all sorts of guns, clubs, and musical instruments. I can’t help but feel a little bad, then, when a teaser like the one Capcom…
There’s only three weeks to go until Dave The Diver gets yet another round of unlikely crossover DLC, with Ichiban Kasuga of Yakuza/Like A Dragon fame joining the rotund fisherman out in the waters of the Blue Hole. First revealed last month with a broad ‘April’ release window, the latest Dev Dive vlog from very-not-indie…
The Assassin’s Creed Shadows Tea Ceremony quest is one of your first major hurdles, tasking you with infiltrating a gathering of wealthy Sakai individuals to uncover the identity of the Golden Teppo. If you’re not playing in canon mode, you’ll have to correctly respond and interact with the ceremony goers so as not to blow…
When I was just a boy, my father dutifully collected a set of Natwest pigs, hopeful that one day they may be worth enough for my first rent payment. Spoiler: They were not.

Final Fantasy 14’s patch 7.2 is coming soon—which means preliminary patch notes. While these aren’t usually of much interest, with much of the meat contained in the game’s live letters, one particular note leapt out at me: FF14’s making changes to its blacklist. I wrote a full story on this back in January, but here’s…
Look Outside is like football in that it’s a game of two halves. And in absolutely no other way is it like football, because this is a survival horror RPG about being trapped in an apartment building where your neighbors have been transformed into Cronenberg-esque monsters that are about 90% eyeballs and teeth by weight….
Microsoft has announced DirectX Raytracing 1.2 at the GDC conference with claims of “game changing” performance benefits. But the newly revised API looks an awful lot like it has incorporated some key Nvidia technologies rather than introducing new features and so may not be the ray-tracing performance panacea we’ve all been waiting for.
