Resident Evil 2 Remake had the tough job of living up to the highest of expectations when it released in 2019, and outside the fixed camera purists there aren’t many people who’d say Capcom failed to deliver. It’s still the tense, eerie journey through the RPD and beyond that we all remember, but Leon and…
It was a different world 30 years ago… 30 years ago this coming January, UK publisher EMAP launched Sega Magazine, a monthly tome which was focused on the dazzling array of console hardware Sega had on the market at the time. That included (deep breath) the Master System, Mega Drive / Genesis, Mega CD and…
Dude! That is so (Cyber)punk rock! Ah, another week in Switch 2 paradise and the news is still coming thick and fast.

A new game set in the same universe as Dave the Diver could be in the works at developer Mintrocket. In an interview with 4Gamer at the Nexon Developers Conference, Mintrocket CEO Jaeho Hwang dove into the studio’s future, including its plans for Dave the Diver, which seem to extend beyond DLC. “Dave the Diver…
“Did I startle you..?”. Although many deemed it somewhat tedious, sailing across The Great Sea is what made Zelda: The Wind Waker, well… The Wind Waker. It was a really cool mechanic in hindsight, and we don’t know about you, but we often fantasised about having our own ‘King of the Red Lions’ sailboat in…
Helldivers 2 is coming to Xbox, per a new trailer that was just posted to Arrowhead’s channel. The video in question, which uses P.O.D’s “Boom”, is pretty cute in itself—the fact that Arrowhead has waited a whole year and a half before using this particular bop in their promotional material, I feel, shows remarkable restraint….
A 10-year study throws up some worrying results. If you own a system like the Dreamcast, SNES or NES, then you’ll be aware of the fact that older consoles with white plastic shells begin to yellow over time. This is because fire-retardant chemicals are present in the plastic, and as these oxidise over time, the…
