A Journey under the sea Four years ago, I was in dire straits as a Wii U owner. The console was flopping, Nintendo couldn’t move units, and developers who all seemed to be on board at the beginning were nowhere to be seen. Many, many quality experiences passed me by in that era, but that’s changed. The Switch has been a complete 180 for Nintendo and it now seems like any game that’s anything is making its way to the system....

After an entire morning of hearing about the DSFire Emblem,Mario & Luigi RPG 3, and the newPunch-Out!!, I thought to myself: “Shame, be damned! If Nintendo announces another awesome game I am going to don a luxurious white wedding dress and marry the gosh darn company!” Well … er … I don’t know anything about dress sizes. Would I be a4? For anyone not familiar with the original,Sin & Punishmentis a Treasure action/shooter hybrid for the Nintendo 64....

The Last of Usseason two has been hit or miss for many, but one thing that it has missed big time has been Ellie’s tone. Last night’s episode was a turning point she desperately needed. Ellie and Dina’s journey to Seattle has kind of felt like a road trip with the girlies up until the last few minutes of this week’s episode. And then finally, we got a taste of the game version of Ellie, the Ellie who has been so consumed by grief and revenge that she’s borderline unrecognizable from the young girl in the first game....

Our titular hero must traverse a series of hazard-filled stages in order to deliver a mysterious scroll. This simple premise soon unfolds into a paradoxical, time-warping adventure....
El Presidente needed a break March is starting to look like a super busy month for gaming.Tropico 6was originally scheduled for a June 25, 2025 release date, but will now be shipping on August 04, 2025. The reason for the delay came after a closed beta session last year resulted in developer Limbic and publisher Kalypso wanting to polish the game and incorporate fan feedback. In a blog post over on Kalypso’s website, managing director Simon Hellwig wrote, “Over the holidays, I have playedTropico 6for many hours and really liked what I saw....
Getting further and further from Unity Plenty of publishers are high on the second screen experience, but Ubisoft’s coming down from that — well, at least a little. The next installment in theAssassin’s Creedfranchise won’t come paired with a companion app of any sort. According toGamesRadar+, Ubisoft confirmed the omission of a second screen feature forAssassin’s Creed Syndicate, saying that the developers wanted to focus on the “core experience.” The decision is reasonable given the troubles thatUnityhad last year with its companion app....
Okay, I’m a gamer and a woman; we all know that.I’ve been gaming since I was 6 when my Dad introduced me to computer games on his Commodore 64 and from there on I loved gaming.During that time, the video game industry did not market to women or girls and yet I still chose to play video games. I didn’t care if they marketed the games to me, because I wanted to play just the same....
Nintendo announced the phenomenal-lookingThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdomduring itsJune 2024 Nintendo Direct. Alongside that announcement, the company also casually dropped a reveal for the beautiful Nintendo Switch Lite Hyrule Edition. This console is a special edition of the Nintendo Switch Lite, possibly the best ever made. In the past, we’ve had slight variations on the design, the most recent of which was forAnimal Crossing: New Horizons, but only thePokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining PearlandSword and ShieldEditionsreally went anywhere with their designs....
From an old PlayStation magazine This past week or so, a bunch ofChrono Triggerfans were looking around the internet forChrono Triggercontent (as retro fans, myself included, do!), and found these “PSX [PlayStation] reference sheet” gems. According to Chrono Compendium, one of the best sites out there for the game, these were shared on Twitter this month and were originally sourced from “The PlayStation” magazine in Japan, volume 170 (which was originally released in 1999)....
Are you ready…? Are you excited forWWE 2K17?No? Well, I tried. 2K is trying as well with a season pass for the upcoming wrestling game. It contains a lot of extra content, which seems to be par for the course with these games. Remove wrestlers one year for DLC, then include in the next game only to remove them two years later! For $30, you’ll get the Accelerator (unlock everything), Future Stars pack, the Hall of Fame Showcase expansion, the Legends pack and the New Moves pack....
