If I had a nickel for every Valve game that had a completely different beta vaguely teased in an E3 demo and would later be restored after nearly ten years of development from die-hard fans, I’d probably be able to get a copy of Left 4 Dead 2 in a Steam sale. I’ve interviewed the […]
Skyrim Mod Creates The Most Realistic Garlic Ever
I know Garlic is perhaps the most important aromatic in my cuisine, which is why most people stay roughly 6 feet away from me at all times, and it’s equally as important in Skyrim. Garlic is a key ingredient in multiple recipes, several alchemical potions, and when turned into Garlic Bread, can even cure diseases. […]
Is It Bad That I’m Really Excited For Dead Island 2?
I am probably one of six people who were really bummed about the Dead Island 2 delay. It was going to be my first big game of the new year, shambling up to my PS5 with bloodied limbs and a tenacious undead growl as I prepared to crane it round the head with a baseball […]
The Witcher Remake Will Be An "Open World" Game
The Witcher is being remade. Although still in early development from Polish studio Fool's Theory, the hope is that using an established engine like Unreal Engine 5 will make the job of remaking 2007's The Witcher easier (although NightDive will be the first to say that's not always the case). CD Projekt Red offered few […]

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery Is The Perfect Movie For Our Time
When I settled into my seat for Glass Onion: A Knives Out mystery, I thought I knew what to expect. With the murder mystery genre there is the need to expect the unexpected, but of course in expecting the unexpected the fact that there were twists, turns, and red herrings would not be a surprise […]
China’s Game Revenue Makes Up 24.8 Percent Of Global Market Despite Regulations
Launching and publishing games in China has been tricky business for a long time with a number of hurdles and regulations in place that developers won't find elsewhere. Despite all that, the Chinese gaming market accounts for 24.8 percent of the industry's worldwide revenue. That makes it the biggest market in the world for video […]
The Word ‘Masterpiece’ Has Lost All Meaning In Modern Gaming
It’s ironic how quick gamers are to dish out praise in spite of their own love of toxic criticism. This morning I stumbled on a video about A Plague Tale: Requiem and comments were filled with loving declarations, many labelling it as a masterpiece more than deserving of scooping up all the awards. The same […]
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Just Became The Perfect Christmas Game
So many people are going to replay The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt when it comes to PS5 and Xbox Series X next month. It isn’t even a new version of the game, only a graphical update that will improve visuals, performance, and add a whole bunch of cosmetic content. This will be more than enough […]
