1.10.2024
The concept of Colassalcon immediately sold me at “swimsuit Comic-Con,” and it had me for life after I got a look at all the incredible cosplay at the event. The Texas-based con took place this August, spread out across three days at the Kalahari Resorts in Round Rock. As such, most of the costumes...

16 Takeaways From The Last Of Us Season Two’s New Trailer
26.9.2024
We got a second trailer for HBO’s The Last of Us’ upcoming season, which airs in 2025, today. So far, season two looks like a pretty faithful adaptation of The Last of Us Part II. But even in the short, two-minute teaser, it seems like HBO is taking a few creative liberties with the source...
Damn, God Of War Ragnarök’s Opener Still Whips
24.9.2024
I’ve been replaying God of War Ragnarök now that it’s on PC, and despite some clear, widespread technical issues with depreciating framerate, this is still fundamentally the same excellent sequel that launched on PlayStation in 2022. I put a few hours into the game again to test how it ran on...

Lego is back with another big, beefy Star Wars set and this time its Jabba’s Barge. The desert sea sci-fi yacht, envy of all of Tatooine, features almost 4,000 pieces and comes with a hefty price tag of $500. More expensive than a lot of Lego sets but still not as much as a PS5 Pro. Read more
Transformers One: The Kotaku Review
12.9.2024
Maybe ten minutes into Transformers One, the computer-animated prequel to the entire existing saga of Hasbro’s robots in disguise, Scarlett Johansson’s focused mining manager Elita says to Chris Hemsworth’s idealistic worker Orion Pax, “You don’t have the touch or the power.” It’s a clunky, forced...

Persona 3 Reload - Episode Aigis: The Answer: The Kotaku Review
9.9.2024
As a “definitive” edition of the phenomenal 2006 RPG, 2024’s Persona 3 Reload was lacking in a few key features like the 2009 PSP port’s female protagonist route. Still, perhaps the most egregious omission was the lack of The Answer, the meaty, playable epilogue that was included in the 2007...

Four Hours With Metaphor: ReFantazio: A Promising Game That Atlus Should Let Speak For Itself
28.8.2024
One of the most confounding things about video games is how they often tell stories that are clearly meant to be real-world allegories rather than escapist fantasies, but are still often framed as such by the companies that make them. After playing four hours of Metaphor: ReFantazio, the upcoming...

Dustborn Has A Great Story To Tell When Bad Combat's Not Getting In The Way
23.8.2024
In its first few hours, Red Thread Games’ Dustborn flaunts so many of the qualities I look for in a story-driven adventure game. It’s full of relationship-building with complex characters, has stakes that are just high enough to draw me into the weight of each dialogue choice I make, and...
Hands-On: Marvel Rivals Does Right By Captain America And Winter Soldier
22.8.2024
I’ve enjoyed every game I’ve played in NetEase’s Marvel Rivals. The comic book take on the hero shooter genre is a lot of fun, even if it takes some blatant inspiration from Overwatch. It feels less sanded down and polished than its obvious competitor, but that opens it up to chaos and fun plays...
