Say hello to ‘Ludocene’. A new tool billed as a ‘dating app for games’ is currently seeking funding via Kickstarter to ultimately help you find your next all-time favourite. Ludocene comes from the team behind the Family Gaming Database (which, full disclaimer, we are partnered with for accessibility information in our own game pages) and…
Unless you’ve been under a rock somewhere (I wouldn’t blame you, mind) you’re probably aware that World of Warcraft put on its big boots and announced three expansions in 2023. This is downright unprecedented. Even games that plan big, multi-expansion story arcs like Final Fantasy 14 will keep their next expansion tucked under wraps to…
If you’re someone who spends a lot of time gaming and using the same rig to grind through demanding content creation tasks, you might be holding off buying a PC upgrade until the reviews of AMD’s forthcoming Ryzen 9 9950X3D go online. But if you’re as impatient as one particular system builder, pretty much everything…
While RetroSouls has released many games such as GLUF, Old Tower and Alter Ego, one of the more unique games they released, was a game called Ringo. What made this game unique was the fact that it was one of the first games to use their new ‘experimental graphics mode’. While I’m unsure about the…
Switch it up. Sometimes, it can be hard to let go. The next generation of Nintendo hardware is just around the corner. As we say that, we look fondly at our TV console stand where our Switch sits, docked and charging, not a speck of dust on it. For many of us, it’s the console…

I know a tonne of people aren’t ready to hear this but RGB lighting is now a fashion accessory, and you should get ready to see more of it. For better or worse, PC gamers have had front row seats to the development of this technology, and in this time we’ve seen some real rubbish….
“An incredible find”. Seven brand-new Fighting Vipers arcade cabinets have been discovered in a warehouse 30 years after the game launched. As highlighted by Gabe Fowlkes, the find was announced on Facebook, with the “completely NOS Sega Fighting Vipers arcade cabinets” being described as “completely untouched, still boxed, monitors never powered on.” Read the full…
Monster Hunter Wilds is both a return to meat-and-potatoes monster combat and a dramatic revision of the hunting format. It’s a more approachable lizard-slaying sandbox, and it’s a tangle of multiplayer quirks that still feels like something out of 2007. It’s the cleanest Monster Hunter has ever played, and it’s a temperamental piece of software…
Remaking an old game in a new engine is a venerable and usually doomed mainstay of the modding scene. Always has been, always will be. They either stay ‘in development’ forever, get cease-and-desisted, or shrivel up in their incubators. It’s the natural order of things.
