We’ve already seen Nintendo’s Labo play some serious music, but here’s another example courtesy of The Roots, Ariana Grande and Jimmy Fallon. Yeah yeah, it’s a glorified commercial, but it’s still impressive work regardless. Please note that it has been ten years since Ravi Drums and Wii Music. We’ve all come a long way since…
Good Smile has made a couple of Figmas based on the Batman Ninja anime, and they are absolute works of art. There are two available, a regular one and a “Sengoku Edition” special figure. Both will be out early 2019, and should set you back $80-100 from importers. I haven’t seen the anime, but the…
I play Gran Turismo games because they’re like an interactive version of a glossy car brochure. Others, like Dirt, I play for the sensation of barely keeping in control of a car that looks a lot like the one actually parked in my garage. But then there’s F-Zero GX Released in 2003 for the Nintendo…

A simple crossover idea, one that 3D artist Agelos Apostolopoulos is only too happy to indulge. I guess she could zip around like Tracer? Only instead of snappy British one-liners she’d just slaughter everyone, then break our hearts It’s not just that image either, he actually built the model: You can see more of Agelos’…
As a decades-long fan of Creative Assembly’s Total War series, I’m still coming to grips with the state of the latest game, Thrones of Britannia. It’s at times the worst Total War game I’ve ever played, and yet at others it’s doing everything I’ve been wanting this series to do for years. Bad news first!…

I reviewed V-Commandos last year and absolutely loved it, but 12 months later I’m somehow finding space in my heart to enjoy it even more To recap, V-Commandos is a board game designed by a bunch of guys who either work or used to work at Ubisoft. It’s a turn-based stealth tactics experience, where you…
Civilization VI’s Spring Update (the game likes to do things in seasons) is now live, and while many of the changes it brings are just tweaks to various dials and figures, there are a few welcome new additions in there as well. The best is how joint wars now work, with players able to ask…

Polish studio Acram Digital, who have released games like Steam: Rails to Riches and Eight-Minute Empire, have had all their content scrubbed from Steam after Valve caught them posting fake reviews of their own games. Purchasers of the company’s games—PC conversions of board game classics—had been complaining of not just the fake reviews (which have…
F1 fan Tim Binniongot to go to the Shanghai Grand Prix last month, and like most people lucky enough to see a race in person, he took a ton of photos. Thing is, amidst a sea of SLRs and iPhones, he took them on a Game Boy camera. Having grown up without the pleasure of…
Steam reviews have a reputation for being whiny garbage, but they can still be really useful when the trash is filtered out and some serious data extracted. Which is exactly what this in-depth study of the service has found. An Empirical Study of Game Reviews on the Steam Platform is the name of a study…

Nintendo just announced a new official charging stand for the Switch that “makes playing in Tabletop mode easier than ever”. The charging solutions that shipped with the console at launch were pretty limited in this regard as the dock blocked access to the screen, while using a cable and the kickstand at the same time…
Despite losing licenses and pretty much everything else to EA over the last decade, Konami keeps plugging away with its Pro Evolution Soccer series, today showing the first footage from PES 2019 I applaud the publisher’s continued push to show actual gameplay footage in its debut trailers. But also, getting David Beckham—who retired in 2013—in…
When Disney Infinity was cancelled back in 2016, a number of projects planned for the platform—like a Moana tie-in—were cancelled along with it. So too were new figures based on Marvel’s Dr. Strange and Star Wars’ Rogue One We’ve seen one of those Rogue One figures already, but remember, a whole playset—with multiple miniatures—was planned…
