It’s hard to make a new MMO nowadays—sure, if you’ve got over two decades of expansions to back you up, you can keep your players entertained by using every bit of the buffalo. But if you don’t have that? Good luck. MMO design veteran Jack Emmert, who recently returned to Cryptic Studios and has worked…
The Fortnitification of videogames has seeped into just about every live-service excursion at this point. You can play as Nicki Minaj in Call of Duty. Final Fantasy 14 is getting an Evangelion raid series in its next expansion. Tekken 8 just announced a Baki character as its final Season 3 DLC fighter. Media can no…
If you have been keeping a close eye on news reports about companies dropping employees and replacing them with AI, and you’re worried about what the future holds for your own job, then you’re not alone. But don’t fret: OpenAI’s Sam Altman reckons that it’s not going to be as bad as you might think,…
The MMO is in dire straits at the moment. Don’t get me wrong, it’s popular—but it’s an aging genre, to the point where we even didn’t have a single MMO make it to our Top 100 list last year, because while there are still many popular ones going, they’ve been losing too many points for…
The Flexispot C7 Morpher is a very comfortable chair, and you’d expect it to be at the whopping price of £800/$800. Born out of Flexispot’s earlier C7, the Morpher brings with it a whole suite of ergonomic features to justify that price tag. Most aspects of it can be fiddled with, and there are some…
The march of OLED technology continues. According to market research outfit Trendforce, OLED monitor shipments are up by 78% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2026. Trendforce reckons increased supply of Samsung’s QD-OLED panels is a key factor, but it’s actually Asus that is selling the most OLED monitors. Q1 2026’s figures are actually down…
A couple of weeks ago on X, someone reposted Braid and The Witness creator Jonathan Blow into my feed. He was sounding off about a new indie action-platformer called Derelict Star that I hadn’t heard of, but which has quietly gained an audience among movement platformer enthusiasts since its release in early April. Blow was…
The Talos Principle 3 is coming, and I’m very excited: What initially attracted my attention as a sideshow curiosity from the Serious Sam guys quickly proved itself a clever puzzle game powered by an unexpectedly compelling and thoughtful narrative. I like it a lot! And so it’s kind of a bummer that Croteam insists, with…
A live action Elden Ring movie is in the works, as you may have heard, and as is sometimes the way with these things, it’s been a little leaky: Not the whole damned game went out two days early kind of leaky, but rather in the form of behind-the-scenes bits and snippets we’re not supposed…
Kenshi’s whole deal is best summed up with one of its game start conditions: “rock bottom.” When you start at rock bottom, you begin the game stranded in the desert, surrounded on all sides by enemies, with a 1 in all stats. Oh, and you just lost your left arm, and you’re malnourished in a…
