The team behind the upcoming Command & Conquer remaster have posted a video that’s partly about the process behind cleaning up the 1995 original’s cutscenes. Mostly, though, it’s a fascinating look inside the archives at loads of dusty old tapes that are crammed with bonafide video game history. You’ll find the video below, in which…
I can’t remember the last time I hooted and/or hollered at a video game as much as I did during the first 15 minutes of Bloodroots It’s a fast, stylish brawler with one very cool hook: you don’t have a single weapon, you have everything. The game’s world is littered with swords, hammers and guns,…

As has been established repeatedly on this website of record, I am a coward, and so maybe this fan-made Silent Hill 2 virtual reality demo is not for me. Perhaps it is for you, though. This is just a concept trailer, not something that’s actually being worked on, and for you that might be terrible…
Penalty shootouts are cruel at the best of times, but I’ve never seen anything like this. This is Giuseppe Guastella, a FIFA player so good he plays for the esports branch of the LA Galaxy, taking what would be the final shot in a shootout. As you, and everyone else with eyes can see, the…
Animal Crossing speedrunner BrianMp16 is on the cusp of joining the 1% (in Nintendo terms, at least), as he’s about to get enough bells to buy a model of the town post office, the most expensive item available to purchase in the game. Its cost? A paltry 999,999,999 bells. As BrianMp16 wrote on Reddit (via…

An 11 year-old in Blackpool, England has been caught by local police driving an actual car, all because a family member “was fed up with the child playing Grand Theft Auto all day on the Playstation”. Lancaster Police say the boy was driving this Vauxhall Astra (pictured below) around a car park, having been brought…
Street Fighter star Chun-Li was born on March 1, 1968. That would make her 52 years old this week, which is a damn sight older than she looks in any of the recent game’s character art. Which is fine! Much of the original Street Fighter II cast, from Dhalsim to Vega, have obviously aged just…

This fantastic, 10-minute video by Mr Sunday Movies takes the end of Rise of Skywalker and turns it into something that looks like it came from Lucasarts’ Super Star Wars series on the SNES. I dig it! The whole thing works much better if you imagine it’s the plotline to some 90s expanded universe baloney…
Starting life as a joke before becoming a very serious, actual thing, nanobuds’ addition of Baby Yoda to the Battlefront II roster is a wonderful new way to spice up your Star Wars shootouts. Maybe addition is the wrong word, since this actually replaces BB-8 rather than adding an entirely new character, but the effect…
You think you’ve played one turn-based tactics game you’re played them all. Then along comes Broken Lines to remind us all that, hey, there are more ways to put a group of units into combat that simply lining up to take turns. Set in an alternate, BPRD-meets-Dirty–Dozen take on the Second World War, Broken Lines…
You’ve read our impressions of Final Fantasy VII’s remake, sure, but if you want to try out (part of) it for yourself, good news: as of right now, a demo is available on the PlayStation Store. It’s available worldwide, and covers “the opening chapter from the game, and the events of the iconic Mako Reactor…
Previously known solely as the League of Legends studio, Riot showed us last year that they’re now working on all kinds of new stuff. The first of which is Valorant, a team-based shooter. We got a brief look at it in 2019, but here’s a full round of the game in action, captured with Riot…

Last week, EA’s servers were having some pretty serious problems. That impacted regular players, sure, but also pros trying to play international tournaments. At one point things got so bad for FIFA players that they resorted to playing Rock, Paper, Scissors to decide winners. As Polygon reported, amidst other players being unable to connect to play…
Well, here’s some bullshit: fighting game Dead or Alive 6 has, in a recent update, introduced a new form of microtransaction, in which players are charged real money to change a character’s hair colour. Then charged again to change it back. The move went live in the recent 1.60 update, whose big deal was that…
