I trawled through archives of official sites hoping to discover that the marketing department had released it as a wallpaper or something,
After initially releasing in Japan a literal decade ago, Phantasy Star Online 2 is finally making its way to PS4 in the west. Phantasy Star Online 2 first released on PC in Japan exactly a year ago today (July 4), but didn’t see any kind of western release until 2020. And while its first home
Mods can go well beyond putting the Teletubbies in Left 4 Dead. They can rewrite the makeup of entire games, change how they start, or create entirely new games unto themselves. Gargantuan in design, these large-scale projects can lend new life to older games or completely revisit how we play them, and this year’s Elden

Image: Nintendo Try not to go bananas over this, but Nintendo has filed a “new” trademark for the Donkey Kong series. This one is seemingly a little different from the usual ones.

On these shores, the vocaloid Hatsune Miku is possibly best known for her rhythm action games, which makes it all the stranger that the Xbox is still waiting for its first one. Instead, we’ve been getting the side-gigs, with Miku popping up in Hatsune Miku Logic Paint S and now this, Hatsune Miku Jigsaw Puzzle,
What happens when you cross an RPG with a visual novel? An extremely small potential pool of customers? No, you cheeky scallywag, you get Tales of Aravorn: Seasons of the Wolf. Visual novels tend to be an unambitious bunch. You’d be lucky to get more than a dozen choices and a couple of divergent endings
Someone has stolen King Leo’s haunch of ham, and he’s not best pleased. We feel a kinship with King Leo, as we get similarly peeved when someone steals a chip from our plate. We don’t go as far as King Leo, though: frustrated with his lack of meal, he goes on a revenge killing-spree, murdering
