After several delays, Projects Cars finally arrived in early May. Just weeks later, developer Slightly Mad Studios have announced plans to crowdfund a sequel. That seems…soon. As with the last game, Project Cars 2 is raising money on the World of Mass Development platform. There’s no stated budget or goal for the sequel, but it…
What’s old is new again. Unfortunately, it’s also pricey. GameStop launched its long-discussed retro store today, and most games are available for pretty reasonable prices. $12.99 for Metal Gear? Sure. $6.99 for Sonic the Hedgehog 2? Alright. Even $34.99 for Mega Man 2 isn’t ridiculous, considering what it’s going for over on eBay. It doesn’t…
Another year, another E3. Time to hand out some virtual awards. If you read Luke’s excellent (and hilarious) posts from earlier this week—here’s day zero, here’s day one—you already have an idea what we thought of this year’s show. But our excellent production team has put together a slick summary of the E3 that was…
Sony decided to close out its E3 press conference this year with Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End. After a brief cutscene played, Nathan Drake was supposed to start moving through a crowd…but he just stood still…for a long time. That’s when co-director Bruce Straley started panicking. If you read my E3 demo piece from last…
Microsoft might close this loophole eventually, but for now, it seems to be working. If you want to get in on backwards compatibility right now, this method comes courtesy of Gamingbygamers on YouTube. It only seems to work with digitally purchases on Xbox 360. The steps are simple enough. If you have a friend that’s…

When Bethesda and Valve announced paid mods for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, the reaction was negative, and it was quickly retracted. Some have suspected the idea would come back with Fallout 4, but as of right now, that doesn’t appear to be the case. German publication Spiegel Online, the digital version of Der Spiegel,…
Yes, that’s a dog taking a break and relieving themselves in Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain. Goofs aside, your canine friend can do a bunch of really amazing things in Snake’s latest. This year is The Phantom Pain’s last appearance at E3, as the game races towards its September release date. IGN has…
It’s a tale of two season passes. 2K Games announced a second season pass for Evolve—five new characters, one new monster—while io Interactive told Videogamer its new Hitman will not have a season pass at all, as the game’s extra content is free.

Did those puppets at Nintendo’s E3 presentation look familiar? There’s good reason! Muppet fansite ToughPigs contacted The Henson Company, who confirmed it worked with Nintendo. Jim Henson’s son, Brian Henson, reportedly directed the opening video, too. Contact the author at [email protected]
Shenmue III? Check. Final Fantasy VII remake? Check. The Last Guardian? Check. Beyond Good & Evil 2? Well, it’s complicated, but it’s not sounding good. The last official footage released from Beyond Good & Evil 2 was a teaser trailer at E3 2009: A few years later, leaked footage from the game seemed to surface.…
When Bandai Namco announced Dark Souls 3, it called the sequel the “final episode,” suggesting Dark Souls was coming to an end. At E3, however, the developers said it wasn’t true. Though Dark Souls 3 isn’t coming until early 2016, a brief gameplay snippet was shown to press at E3. Additionally, series creator Hidetaki Miyazaki…
Riptor, Cinder, Fulgore, and the whole Killer Instinct gang are coming to the PC, Microsoft announced last night. There aren’t any details on its release date yet, but we do know PC and Xbox One players will have a chance to play against one another. Contact the author at [email protected]
There’s something curious about Shenmue III on Kickstarter: it’s only asking for $2 million. It took $47 million to build the original game. What’s the deal? As it turns out, Sony’s partnering with its development. When the Shenmue III bombshell was dropped during Sony’s press conference last night, it wasn’t clear if Sony was simply…
I mean, it’s true, you die a lot in Dark Souls. People are beginning to walk the floor of E3, which means they’re coming across the elaborate displays created for the games at the show, too. Here’s what Namco Bandai put together for the final chapter in the Dark Souls series: If I owned a…
We already knew Star Ocean 5 was imminent, the first installment in the RPG series since 2010, but Square Enix confirmed Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness is coming to the rest of the world in 2016 on PlayStation 4. The game features a whopping six-party system, as well. The developers specifically called out how they’re…
I’ll take whatever I can get from Platinum Games, you know? But I didn’t expect this. The trailer itself was mostly slow pans over artwork, a way to set the scene for the new game. I’m not super familiar with Nier, though it’s easily one of the most common games people have asked me to…
Level 5’s super popular ghost catching series, Yokai Watch, series is finally leaving Japan, and Nintendo said it’s arriving “holiday 2015.” If you don’t get what’s up with the Yokai Watch series, we ran an explainer not too long ago. Contact the author at [email protected]
Nintendo promised a new Star Fox was coming, and, yep, a new Star Fox game is coming. Star Fox Zero looks familiar to other Star Fox games we’ve played in the past, though obviously it’s the first time Star Fox has appeared in high-definition, thanks to the Wii U. The big change with Star Fox…
