Nevertheless, Konami’s franchise still has some nostalgia for some gamers, so much so that a spiritual successor has arrived to the Nintendo Switch. That

Cyberpunk 2077 fans, it would seem, love a good board game. They love em so much, in fact, that a new official one from CD Projekt and Go On Board – inventively dubbed Cyberpunk 2077: The Board Game – has not only surpassed the $100,000 crowdfunding goal its campaign launched with today, it’s raised over

Star Trucker review Part wide-eyed escapism and part muscular, slightly ponderous driving sim, Star Trucker is as much about concentration as it is relaxation. Oh, and preparation – if you don’t want to end up asphyxiating miles away from the nearest cash n’ carry. Developer: Monster and Monster Publisher: Raw Fury Release: Out now On:
