Feel like Batman on the go As popular as the Switch is, there isn’t a single traditional MMO experience available for the console on these shores. While it makes some kind of sense in that portable mode conflicts with the always online requirement MMO’s have, not everyone plays their Switch exclusively on the go. The hybrid nature of the device was chosen specifically to have full console experiences on there, so why not adapt a free-to-play MMO for the system?...

If the debut trailer is anything to go by, chaos is on the menu forStarnaut. Developer Crim announced the spacey adventure for PC, withEarly Accessto kick off in February 2024. The roguelike action game has you playing as an astronaut on a solo space expedition that lands them in the multiverse. From there you’ll be blasting “endless incoming enemies” that can be deceptively cute and drop what seems to be an equally endless number of coins....

Mazer with more lazers GDC, like most gaming conventions, is a chaotic endeavor where there’s virtually no chance that we’ll cover every game that we want to. Steven, Brett, and I all walked an average of ten miles a day as we dashed across San Francisco from appointment to appointment. My dumb ass even decided to wear nice, uncomfortable boots so that I could be Maximum Impressive. So, when I was about to take public transit back to Steven’s place to rest for a bit and he texted me, telling me to go to aStarr Mazerappointment, I briefly considered blowing it off and throwing one of my stupid boots through Steven’s kitchen window....

Tyler has been making games for years (Aether,Number, Closure,Helen Keller: The GameandBombernautsto name a few), many of which have been played in the millions, yet he isn’t yet a household name in videogames....

Hot forHunger Games? How aboutCanabalt? Never heard of ’em? God damn it son, what’s wrong with you?! Culture is happening RIGHT NOW, and you’re the only dingus in town who’s missing out! The Hunger Gamesis arguably the first big book/movie mythology to truly capture the imagination of the “Call of Duty” generation. The movie just came out, as did thefree iOS game. The game has giant robot wasps, which automatically makes it better than the movie....

Despite my best efforts, there will always be times when certain games go under my radar, and Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroeswas one of them. When I was sent to theCapcombooth at PAX for this interview, I really wasn’t sure what I was getting myself into. But when Product Marketing Manager Eric Monacelli was speaking, I realized that while this series may not be big on our shores, it’s taken Japan by storm....

Manor Lordshas been an undeniable smash hit on PC. It launched in early access in April 2024 and, in less than a month, it managed topush over two million units. While players could wait for official updates and new content from developer Slavic Magic, modders have unsurprisingly taken it upon themselves to offer alternative ways of playingManor Lords. There are plenty on offer, but we’ve narrowed it down to a list of the 10 bestManor Lordsmods available on PC....

Two of the year’s best titles collide ThemedMinecraftskin packs, Snoop Dog inCall of Duty, the entirety of theKingdom Heartsfranchise — there have been some pretty awesome video game crossovers over the years. One collaboration I did not expect to see, however, was a combination of two of 2022’s biggest releases:Elden RingandPokémon Scarlet. As seen in a video posted by userArestameon Twitter, this mod allows players to ride the legendary Pokémon Koraidon around as a mount, dress themselves and enemy characters in Pokémon trainer outfits, and even reskin the game’s most ferocious monsters as giant versions of beloved pocket monsters....

Skylanders will be all over San Diego Comic-Con $99 to get started withSkylanders Trap Teamin style — thank heavens I’m not a kid (or don’t have children, for that matter) because I’d be all over this. Activision has opened pre-orders for theTrap TeamDark Edition, which includes cool black-and-silver variants of new characters Snap Shot, Wildfire, and Food Fight; a two-sided poster; stickers; and trading cards. This starter pack — available October 5 for PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii, and Wii U — also comes with three traps, one of which can be used to captureSkylandersvillain Kaos....

I’d play Zelda Dominion Love it or hate it,Settlers of Catanhelped shatter the cross-generation barriers of tabletop. Instead of fighting over whether or not to playScytheorMonopoly, I’ve witnessed many families settle forCatanand have a blast doing it. It’s most definitely a gateway game. That’s why so many people will probably “get” thisSettlersboard based onZelda: Breath of the Wildby redditor redjaypeg. You can hear the arguments now about how your aunt is hoarding all of the wood and refuses to trade, while your uncle begs for fish the entire game....

Please tell me whyyyy When this beautiful piece of Ghibli-inspired art came across my deskfrom artist salvamakoto, I immediately smiled. AlthoughCastle in the Skyjumped into my head (the artist tagged their piece as “Ghibli fan art”), my mind then immediately went toLupin. Years ago Ghibli head Hayao Miyazaki handled theLupinfilmThe Castle of Cagliostro, and you canclearly see Monkey Punch’s style bleeding through. The dynamic in the scene above also recalls the relationship between leads Lupin and frenemy Fujiko....

Haha Uplay [Update:Ubisoft Club is replacing Uplay within the confines of each game and the current gen app space. The first game to feature the switch will beAssassin’s Creed: Syndicate.] Ah man, Uplay — one of the worst proprietary services in gaming right now. Ubisoft isn’t giving up on it, and has decided to ramp up its efforts with another service titled “Ubisoft Club.” It will offer cross-platform rewards, as well as “extra in-game content” (isn’t this literally what Uplay does right now?...
