Allistair did a great interview with the developers ofXCOM: Enemy Unknown, the convention season is gearing up with gamescom and PAX news coming out, and I put out a very timely and well received review ofStarhawk....

Check out thisMario Paintartwork byRuiZinen. This is the real deal, folks, done with the real dealMario Paintmouse, and not with some beefed up PC version. All the images you see in this video are digital camera snaps of a television screen that a Super Famicom playingMario Paintwas connected to. The work is so good that it pisses me off! Doesn’t it piss you off? All I can do now is think about all the time I spent trying to create something at least somewhat decent and never quite succeeding....

Auld lang syne So… 2017 huh? Goddamn, have the last 12 months felt like they lasted six years to anyone else? So much has happened in 2017, too much to bother talking about here, but one of the good things to come out of it for me is I kept mygaming resolution. Last year I said I would pay more attention to mobile games and by God I did it. It wasn’t always fun but at times it provided me with some absolutely awesome experiences....

Talking with her won’t initiate a Social Link, but she will ask for a food that’s round, hot, and soft. This might seem perplexing if you’re unfamiliar with Japanese cuisine, but this snack is fortunately easy to find. The round, hot, soft food Maiko wants isTakoyaki....

The premise ofVampire Survivorsis pretty simple: what ifyouwere the bullet hell? Given gaming’s propensity for fulfilling a player fantasy in terms of might, ability, heroism, fame/infamy, and feeling rested after a good sleep, it’s little wonder that Poncle’s roguelike release – which spins the bullet hell genre on its head – has been receiving significant praise onSteamsince it came out in 2022. But for those who haven’t played the game – or are new to it – its blend of retro-style visuals and the opportunity to “mow down thousands of night creatures” is offset by the sheer chaos and perhaps surprising difficulty, despite the aforementioned power fantasy needs that are met....
