A definitive ending to an excellent story is a truly precious thing. That’s part of why Samurai Jack’s return for a final season in 2017 was so refreshing, as it capped off the legendary cartoon show with an appropriately epic and conclusive sendoff. Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time makes a risky choice, then, by attempting

Looks like your favorite procedurally generated democratic sports betting simulator may be stepping back up to the plate. The Grand Siesta is coming to an end, it seems. The Blaseball Commissioner (who I hear is doing a great job) announced in somewhat certain terms that Blaseball would be “back” on Monday, August 24th. If that

Last week, Minecraft was updated to version 1.16.20, introducing some new features, crafting interface changes, and the monstrous Piglin Brutes, stronger versions of the Piglins fans already know and love. It should have been a welcome set of changes, but Switch players have been coming up against a number of stability issues since updating their
Earth’s mightiest heroes today come crawling down your Internet pipe, offering everyone a free slice of Marvel’s Avengers in an open beta weekend. The idea of a superhero game that’s some sort of live service action-RPG with loot is a bit weird, so I’m curious. The beta start is staggered across the world, opening up
Destiny 2 free-to-play players look to be getting a raw deal when Beyond Light releases this November.

Alongside the first official ad campaign for the PS5, Sony gathered multiple developers to talk about exactly how they are using the unique features of the DualSense controller for their games.

To celebrate all the times Kojima’s played us for a fool, here are the ten most unpredictable and long-lasting curveballs in the Metal Gear saga.
Battletoads reviewed by Terence Wiggins on Xbox One. Also available on PC.

PGA Tour 2K is the new name for The Golf Club series, which could have just as easily been rebranded as Dark Holes for its uncompromisingly hardcore simulation of the sport. In its previous incarnation, it showed its players all the forgiveness of a FromSoftware game. But with its latest evolution under the 2K sports
When you buy a copy of the upcoming Nintendo Switch title Pikmin 3 Deluxe from the Nintendo UK Store, you’ll get a couple of free pre-order bonuses.

Final Fantasy VII Remake came and went earlier this year, the first chapter in a who-knows-how-many part saga remaking the classic PlayStation title. Most likely owing to the popularity of the title, Square Enix seems to be shoehorning the game into every imaginable crossover, ranging from chibi toys to candy, and even other Final Fantasy
With Marvel’s Avengers rapidly approaching launch, Marvel and Crystal Dynamics have released a new video detailing the major threats players will face when the game launches.

I know what you’re thinking. A game based on a film, TV show or any well-established franchise is normally a vacuous, disappointing echo of what the fanbase imagined it to be. However, I think it’s important to say right at the start of this review that Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is surprisingly good. And here’s why.
Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is like watching a baseball game that only gets exciting in the bottom of the ninth. It’s a puzzle game set against the clock that unfortunately only begins to hit its stride as your time with it time runs out. While introducing some fresh time-bending and puzzle mechanics, it regularly fails to
If we’re being completely honest, we never imagined that we’d still be writing about clever, creative uses of the Game Boy Camera in 2020, yet here we are with another fan-made project that has us mightily impressed.

Such allegations stem from a 2018 letter that several female staffers sent to management. At the time, a meeting was held after the letter’s submission; yet, according
Mortal Shell reviewed by Leif Johnson on PC. Also available on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. “Mortal Shell isn’t as rich and complex as post-Souls games like Bloodborne or Sekiro, but it does make you work for victories and learn from your mistakes. It’s a beautifully dark adventure, and thanks to its clever body-swapping mechanic
