I’ve always had a soft spot for music-driven games. Rhythm games like Guitar Hero, Rez, or Thumper play almost subconsciously for me as someone with a musical background so I first approached Sayonara Wild Hearts with a similar mindset. However, as I made my way through the game I discovered that it’s so much more
We hope you had a great holiday season and are ready to take on a new year. This season always gets super busy, making it easy to lose track of the things that truly brightened our day. We wanted to take today to give you the opportunity to share the gift you enjoyed the most this year

There are times when the creative mind of the humble game developer should be lauded with praise, maybe even seeing statues built in their honour for their work building worlds and becoming creation experts. With Weakless, the thought process behind this imaginative game, and the game world itself, has been delivered in moments of genius.
Mario Kart Tour fans can claim a generous 2,019 coins in the hit mobile kart racer, Mario Kart Tour. The reason for this act of generosity is because it is the holidays and the team has had a great 2019 with the success of the game. Plus, it is a great way of thanking fans
You’ve not even begun to groan yet Every year we are put in a cardboard box full of straw and carefully packed away in the treehouse attic, until Graham wakes up on January 3rd and chains us to our desks again. It’s a cosy little break for us, but we don’t want you to feel

The end of another year is upon us. It seems like 2019 just began, and yet here we are, the final week of the decade. In just one short week, we’ll be in 2020, the same year as the launch of the next-generation of consoles. PS5 might still be nearly a year away, but if
This one? Now this one is a doozy. Every year we are put in a cardboard box full of straw and carefully packed away in the treehouse attic, until Graham wakes up on January 3rd and chains us to our desks again. It’s a cosy little break for us, but we don’t want you to
There are times when you get told about distant relatives; usually as families come together whilst at weddings or funerals with things going just a few generations back, normally involving some incident that the family is a bit embarrassed by. But what about the other ancestors? The ones that go way back… about a million
On Christmas Eve, Nintendo has decided to release a new Dragalia Digest video. Dragalia Digests are video presentations that reveal new information on Nintendo’s Dragalia Lost mobile game.

Talk to any kid in the early ’90s and the ’90s absolutely sucked! There was a hole in the ozone layer, war was popping up all over the globe, they had lost the voice of our generation in Kurt Cobain, and parents were just the worst. But talk to those ’90s kids now and the

The deals keep coming as we approach the holidays and many retailers try to entice you to partake in those last-minute sales. One of those is GameFly, one of the last companies to still offer video game rentals (following Redbox ceasing video game rentals earlier this month). With GameFly, you can take advantage of the
Here it is then: officially the best game of 2019. Prepare for takeoff. It’s Outer Wilds! Alice Bee: In Outer Wilds you are a member of a small race of aliens, who live on a very small planet (its moon is almost the same size as it is). But still, your people looked to the
Death Stranding only just released, but that isn’t stopping Hideo Kojima and his development studio Kojima Productions from working on the next project. The renowned director tweeted an image on December 23, 2019, as he sat in the office “working on the next concept.” The image features two computer screens, one of which has a
A combination of Plantronics and Polycom seems like a match made in heaven for gamers, particularly as the two companies have come together to form Poly and provide a range of new headsets to the world – the RIG range. And in the RIG 500 PRO HX, they’ve created a headset which includes pretty much
We’re excited to welcome the beloved and iconic Pokémon franchise as they debut two games on Facebook Gaming this December: Pokémon Tower Battle, developed by Bombay Play, and Pokémon Medallion Battle, developed by GCTurbo.

Sometimes you just need the zombies to line up so you can score one headshot after another. Dead Age, a turn-based zombie roguelite that originally came out on PC back in the middle of 2016, has just hit the PlayStation 4. The game has you assembling a crew of survivors in an effort to, well, survive.

As someone familiar with FromSoftware’s prior works, I approached Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice with (what I believed to be) earned confidence. After all, surely those who’ve conquered the Souls series and acquired Bloodborne’s Platinum Trophy would be adequately prepared for a stealthy shinobi adventure through 15th Century Japan. For the first several enemy encounters, this
For many, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds signalled the start of something special on console. Being the first proper console title to embrace the mass Battle Royale scene, the gaming landscape was switched when PUBG first rocked up with its large-scale PvP gameplay.
