Throughout Metaphor: ReFantazio’s roughly 80 hours, the RPG’s protagonist carries a novel with him as he travels through the fantastical world of the United Kingdom of Euchronia. The book depicts an idealized metropolis of skyscrapers where equality is written into law. It’s clear this story...

The Silent Hill 2 Remake Is One Of 2024's Best Horror Games
4.10.2024
I’ll admit that when it was first confirmed that Bloober Team was remaking Silent Hill 2, I laughed and shook my head. Bloober has a spotty track record with scary games, Silent Hill 2 is one of the most beloved horror games ever made, and Konami has done a horrible job supporting the franchise...
Joker: Folie à Deux: The Kotaku Review
4.10.2024
It’s been five years since Todd Phillips’ Joker gave us a bleak, ultra-realistic take on the iconic comic book villain. Set in a seedy 1980s version of Gotham, Joker’s nihilism touched on contemporary issues such as political divides, wealth disparity, and social isolation, which only intensified...
First I Hated Shogun Showdown, Then I Realized It's Fantastic
2.10.2024
My first mistake was rushing in. Shogun Showdown is a game about planning and patience. Things can go from bad to dead in just a few turns. Unless you take a step back and try to see the larger picture, it can feel like an overly simplistic and needlessly punishing experience. My first, brief...

This New FPS Is Really Weird, But Really Awesome, Too
26.9.2024
Trying to describe Echo Point Nova, a newly released PC shooter, is a tricky thing. I could describe it as a game that mixes Titanfall’s movement, modern Doom’s gunplay, Minecraft’s destructibility, Skyward Sword’s floating islands, and wicked rad hoverboarding into one oddball package—though that...

26.9.2024

God Of War Ragnarök Is The Latest Steam Review Victim Of Sony's PC Login Requirement
20.9.2024
God Of War Ragnarök was one of 2022's hit games on PS5 and PS4, and by all accounts it looks great and plays well on PC, where it arrived via Valve’s storefront earlier this week. The Steam user review score is less than stellar, however, as players use the metric to once again boycott Sony’s...
The First Episode Of The Penguin Is Colin Farrell At His Best
20.9.2024
The opening scene of The Penguin, HBO’s The Batman spin-off series set in the comic book universe Matt Reeves created, is so good I watch it several times before continuing on to the rest of the episode. Colin Farrell plays the titular Penguin (whose name has, strangely, been changed from Oswald...
We Tried To Review Funko Fusion But It Softlocked On Us 21 Times
18.9.2024
After finishing a frustrating boss fight in Funko Fusion against a never-ending stream of baddies in a grocery store, I was finally done with Hot Fuzz’s fourth level. I could move on. A cutscene played but the audio was missing. That happens a lot in this game. And then the final screen appeared...
This Nostalgic Zelda-Like Is A Delightful Love Letter To Gaming
17.9.2024
Do you remember the first game you fell in love with? For me it was The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Some of my earliest memories are of sitting in front of a small CRT TV set up in the living room watching my brother run through the fields of Hyrule. Before even getting the controller in...
