Usually, when a retailer mentions an unannounced game or a game coming to an unconfirmed platform, it is with a listing on their website. However, EB Games Canada may have leaked a Switch version of Street Fighter V: Champion Edition by making a tweet about it. As of this article’s writing, Capcom has not confirmed…
Ron Gilbert is something akin to PC gaming royalty, having worked on all-time greats like The Secret of Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion—he also designed the Mona Lisa of edutainment, Freddi Fish and the Case of the Missing Kelp Seeds, so he’s good in my book. You might think such a resplendent back catalog would…
Starfield has now been in the wild for a month and, yep, turns out it’s a Bethesda game. I don’t know why anyone’s surprised really, and surely that’s what we were all secretly hoping for: where’s the joy in a vast, polished galaxy where everything works as intended? Far better to have a cosmos where…

As fans work themselves into a frenzy trying to wring every drop of information out of a 90 second trailer, and some of the media’s greatest GTA scholars deliver informed speculation and clever predictions, I can’t help but get caught up in the excitement of it all. Why should I be prevented from joining in,…
Switch 2 fixes and much more. Following the release of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 on the Switch and Switch 2 last month, Activision and Iron Galaxy have now rolled out a major 2.0 patch. This update adds Create-A-Park to Private Matches and addresses a “variety of issues”. There are also some fixes…
At today’s Summer Game Fest showcase, we learned that a pair of new Cuphead games are in development. One is a “hand-animated” successor to the original 2017 sidescroller, which emulates golden age cartoons. The other is retro in a different way: “an 8-bit action platformer named Mighty Cuphead Adventure.” The really notable thing about Mighty…
It always comes back to Chloe Price and Max Caulfield. Through several games, branching narrative series Life is Strange has explored the consequences of love, friendship, and community, but the duo’s bond remains the beating heart of the overarching tale.
