Steam users react ecstatically to update that lets them access their heaving game notes via the web, also it fixes Monster Hunter Wilds video recording
I gotta be honest, the sum total of my engagement with Steam’s Game Notes feature is that one time I wrote a news story about people using them to cheat at Counter-Strike 2. I’ve never used ’em myself. Is this because of my incredible mind and prodigious powers of recall? Yes. But also it’s because…
D&D’s new virtual tabletop is a glossy and cool idea that’s already struggling with its identity in a world where jpegs and imagination are free
Back in 2023, I reacted in a very grumpy fashion to D&D’s announced virtual tabletop, now dubbed Project Sigil. Well, now it’s here—with surprisingly little fanfare, I might add—and it’s available to test out for “free”. I say free in airquotes, because if you want the full suite of features, you’ll need a D&D Beyond…
Blades of Fire is a God of War-style action game coming to PC from the creators of Metroid Dread, and it’s almost definitely a spiritual successor to Severance
Metroid Dread developer MercurySteam has announced Blades of Fire, a glossy action-adventure that resembles a snappier, bloodier spin on Sony’s God of War reboots. It’s coming to PC in May, and the trailer showcases the game in pretty spectacular fashion. None of this has to do with why I’m excited, however, as I’ll get to…
Snout Is An Adorable New Platformer For Your Game Boy Color You Won’t Want To Miss
A Kickstarter for the game is now live. The Game Boy Color had no shortage of cute and colourful platformers, thanks to games like Shantae, Rayman, Croc, and Super Mario Bros. Deluxe. And that number has only grown in recent years, thanks to the emergence of the homebrew scene that has been busy creating new…
Modders Successfully Install A 1080p OLED Screen Into The Switch Lite
Playing with power. You’re probably familiar with Taki Udon’s work by now. The modder had previously managed to implement an OLED screen into the Switch Lite, and proceeded to sell the ‘Super5’ installation kits on the RetroRemake website. Now, however, with the help of fellow modder @AzkaliManad, the pair have gone one step further with…
Lenovo’s clever solar-powered laptop can turn 20 minutes of sunlight into an hour of video playback but sun-powered mobile gaming still isn’t a goer
Lenovo has cooked up a new laptop with a solar panel with sufficient energy-absorbing capability to turn 20 minutes of sunlight into enough charge for an hour of video playback. Give it up for the Lenovo Yoga Solar PC. Lenovo has also revealed a stand-alone USB Type-C solar charging kit. For now, however, both devices…
Review: Evercade TATE Grip – An Essential Accessory For Shmup Fans
TA-TA for this TATE goodness. When Blaze updated its Evercade handheld back in 2022, one of the key features it added to the EXP version was a TATE button which allowed users to experience vertically-oriented arcade games the way they were supposed to be played. As we noted in our review, while this was a…
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s March patch brings zoomer haircuts for Henry and the return of the hardcore mode that can kill you before the game even starts
You know, I thought I liked Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. I was so suckered in that I even gave it a 90% in our Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 review before theorising a new iron law of game design based off of it. But I was wrong. The game was actually unplayable, and it’s entirely down…
SEGA Wants To “Reinforce” Its Core Studios, But Don’t Expect New Games Soon
Sonic, ATLUS and Like A Dragon all name dropped. SEGA has just released its latest financial report for Q3 of the current fiscal year, and the accompanying Q&A with company vice president Makoto Takahashi and director Nobuaki Yoshii gives a neat little insight about what the team has planned for the future (thanks, VGC). After…
