It’s time for the rail shooter to take flight again

Why did it crash and burn in the first place? “We’re going to break through that fleet!” Fox says as he and his wingmates assault a vastly overwhelming enemy armada. Maybe it’s one of the less memorable quotes fromStar Fox 64, but it’s a moment that captures what helps make it the pinnacle of the rail-shooter genre: intense, non-stop action that takes you through a variety of carefully curated experiences. And yet, here we are, over two decades after it hit the scene, and we still haven’t seen a rail shooter capture the same wonder and excitement....

Mastiff Games need a Web site designer

RememberLa Pucelle Tactics? It was that type of game where I thought, “Damn, I should pick that up.” Then, due to lack of funds, I forgot about it, and it faded into obscurity. That said, I’m glad the company has decided to make a new game, which, as the title of this article implies, is in need of a Web site.

Oh yeah, Bravely Default has a mobile game coming

Bravely Default Fairy’s Effect I’m glad theBravely Defaultseries is still alive, even if it’s in the form of a mobile game. Square Enix has showed offFairy’s Effectin earnest this week, showcasing some beautiful artwork and music in the trailer below. Unlike the vast majority of mobile trailers however, which conceal gameplay to almost trick people into thinking it’s a console release, there’s a bit at the end.
