I’ve only ever had to call emergency services once in my life, when an elderly neighbour had a bad fall down her back stairs, and the ambulance arrived in a timely fashion. This is not how it goes in 911 Operator, a frantic simulation of the difficulty of dispatching paramedics, police, and fire fighters while…
Of all the places I thought AI would knock on the door of, like a grim reaper, I never expected it to be Burger King. Tech, videogames, movies, sure—they’re all about cutting-edge technology, even if it’s misguided and self-destructive—but a fast food chain? As reported by The Verge, Burger King is launching its own AI…
The bloodletting continues at Electronic Arts, which has confirmed an IGN report that the Black Panther game announced in 2023 has been cancelled. Developer Cliffhanger Games is being closed as a result of the cancellation, and separately EA is also making other layoffs across some of its other teams, although the number of people being…
A new trailer for psychedelic action-platformer Ultros has me freshly excited to see what’s going on in its bizarre world of plants and space demons when it releases on February 13, 2024. The game attracted our attention last year not just because of its colorful visuals, but because of its interesting looking dash, slash, and…
Mario vs. Donkey Kong! Tomb Raider! Slave Zero X! The shortest month of the year is here… but it also might be one of the most-packed. February 2024 sees Nintendo’s next big remake land on the Switch, but this is the month of the retro throwback, and the eShop (and our shelves) will be bursting…

In its list of risk factors to its business (a required part of a Form 10-K filing) and under a section entitled “Economic and market uncertainty may adversely impact our business and operating results”, AMD makes mention of…
If there’s one great thing about this year’s CES, it’s that it’s been a nice distraction from all the memory crisis-induced hardware pricing doom and gloom. Admittedly, it’s given us its own share of mild gloom with its own expensive products and relentless focus on AI, but that’s by-the-by. Now the main excitement is out…
“I’m sure you’ll enjoy reviewing this single-channel Lenovo laptop,” Dave joked, as we ended a call discussing the new PC Gamer benchmark database. I laughed, as you do, because it’s one of those things that I’ve written about extensively in recent months, (and moaned at PC Gamer, a lot more about besides), and one I…
The ongoing effort to come up with a new Payday game that people actually want to play continued today with the announcement of Heist Escape Roguelike: Payday Experience, a UEFN game that’s available exclusively in (you guessed it) Fortnite. Heist Escape Roguelike: Payday Experience “reimagines elements of Payday as a progressive roguelike shooter,” with three…
Hey there PlayStation Nation! Hope you’re all doing well and staying safe during these winter months. We know you’ve all been patiently waiting for more news on Resident Evil Village, and that chill going down your back isn’t from the cold outside – rather, it’s from the spine-tingling terrors that await you in the Resident…
