13.12.2024
The Game Awards creator and host Geoff Keighley has spent his life in the vicinity of the video game industry’s Hollywood-inferiority complex. He’s been attached to weird collisions of gaming culture, pageantry, and celebrity cameos dating back to Cybermania ‘94 where, at 15 years old, he was...
Kraven The Hunter Reviews Bury The Film In Spider-Man Villain Infamy
12.12.2024
Director J.C. Chandor preemptively asked all of us to be nice to his Kraven the Hunter film, imploring us to forget the past failures of Sony’s Spider-Man Extended Universe.

Planet Coaster 2, As Told By Steam Reviews
25.11.2024
Like most Frontier Developments’ games, including Planet Zoo, Planet Coaster 2 retains much of the charm and freedom that allow many players—though not me—to creatively construct a park that virtual visitors actually want to spend time and money exploring. Thankfully, alongside the freeform...
Brighter Shores, As Told By Steam Reviews
21.11.2024
There aren’t too many MMORPGs that you can just throw up on a second monitor in the background while you watch Crunchyroll or zone out to your favorite podcast about foreign baking competitions. Most require your input as you quest, grind mobs, and run dungeons with random players you’ll never...
Neva, As Told By Steam Reviews
19.11.2024
When you think about popular video games making waves year-round, it’s usually not the side-scrolling indie titles with a unique art direction that earn their place as household names. Sure, they shake up the pond for a time, but sooner or later the hype is replaced by whatever AAAA title is in...

8.11.2024
The original Life is Strange, from developer Don’t Nod, launched as an episodic, story-driven adventure game published by Square Enix in 2015. That’s nearly a decade ago, surprisingly enough, and it’s making me feel old, as I remember seeing the previews and press screens of the game back in...
