Because The World Needs More Dreamcast Action Figures

Before you go losing your shit now, know that this is a custom action figure, not something you can buy. Yeah, I know. Sadness. Still, we can all admire the craftsmanship. It’s certainly a lot better than any of the official Space Channel 5 figures that have been released over the years. スペースチャンネル５ うらら [fg]

Titanfall’s Not The Only Sci-Fi Game With Parkour

To recap: the best thing about Titanfall was not the mechs. It was the wall-running. So the more games doing that sort of stuff, the better. Ascend is an indie title made primarily by Tommy Wong (an artist in the games business), which he’s been working on for years now. Like Titanfall, it has mechs,…

Skyrim’s NPCs have been toiling through their clockwork lives like, well, clockwork since 2011. It’s time for a break.

Even the “Coming Soon” area of Steam, normally packed with potential indie gems, has largely avoided…

Minecraft Creator Debuts His Latest Creation, Cliffhorse

Technically his first commercial game since Minecraft took the world by storm, Markus “Notch” Persson’s Cliffhorse puts players in control of a horse near some cliffs. Well, hills mostly, but Hillhorse sounds silly. In fact the whole thing is a bit silly, just a bit of fluff tossed together in the Unity engine and announced…

I Will Buy Any Starship Lance Henriksen Wants To Sell Me

The commercial for Star Citizen’s MISC Freelancer may be fake, but the desire to buy is quite real, thanks to the reassuringly gravelly narration of Aliens actor Lance Henriksen. If I had a spare $125 to $180 to pledge towards a virtual ship, the Freelancer is the one I’d pledge it to. It’s dependable and…
