Want a carefree game with none of the intricacies of city-building? Then Islanders is your jam. Or mine, since I have quite a "stressful" day job of managing content and playing/watching pop culture stuff on a daily basis. But I digress; turning your hobby into a job can get hectic and crazy, so why not get something you can faff about with all da...
It's about time Bandai Namco's sword-based 3D fighting game gets some love in the Asian circuit this year. Versus Asia just announced the SoulCalibur Asia League, where the best SoulCalibur 6 players will be determined in different regions, right down to the finals this October in Singapore. Players will duke it out in the following tournaments: ...
In a "no s*** Sherlock" moment in gaming news, we will be getting a sequel to the acclaimed 2017 action adventure title Horizon: Zero Dawn. It is a given, considering how bloody successful the game is from a critical and commercial point of view. Horizon: Zero Dawn 2 is confirmed recently by actress Janina Gavankar during the Star Wars Celebration...
The next Overwatch Archives event, Storm Rising, will be playable later today. You'd better be goddamn excited since these sort of PvE events help flesh out the game's soul and offer something other than PvP and entitled toxic behaviour. Anyway, you'll be playing all the difficulty levels of this mode -using either Genji, Tracer, Winston, and Merc...
Here's a new SoundScape video I did that's Final Fantasy-related. Last one before the anniversary, I promise. This time it's focused on the yellow birds the heroes like to ride around in: the chocobo. Nobuo Uematsu and co. love to make arrangements and pieces on the iconic theme that debuted in 1988. https://youtu.be/OW16_52oY2M...
Did you love the three-part Rurouni Kenshin film? Because I sure did! While the first film tried to find its footing, the movies after that were awesome. So I'm pretty hyped at the fact that there's going to be another Rurouni Kenshin live-action film next year announced by Warner Bros Japan. No wait, make that TWO films next year. The adaptations...
If you've played a lot of beat-em-ups back in the day, anything with the word "River City" in the front means you're playing a classic left-to-right side-scrolling pugilistic affair. You'll also know that it's the Western version of the Kunio-kun games, now under the publishing umbrella of Arc System Works alongside Double Dragon. According to a r...
After seeing a couple of wishlists for Borderlands 3 from certain big-named publications, I came to one conclusion. These people do not know what the flying f*** they're talking about. I came across another conclusion: the editors set these features live because of the amount of controversy it would generate from more gamer-savvy video makers and...
It's hard to top Darren Aronofsky's The Wrestler if you want a gritty and hard look at wrestling and its after-effects. And yet there's quite a bit of heart if you dig deep enough, so much so that wrestling federation WWE is touched by how authentic it is. On the other end of the spectrum, you have an adaptation of a biopic that's mostly funded an...
Let it be said that a simple announcement of a new Borderlands game can make players and fans feel super-nostalgic. At least for those who owned the PC version of Borderlands 2. It seems that there's a resurgence in the 2012 sequel, as it's now one of the top 5 most-played games on Steam. The other games are CS:GO, Dota 2, PUBG, and Warframe. Acc...
When Borderlands 3's release date was unveiled, Gearbox also brought up its many editions of the game: Deluxe, Super Deluxe, Collector's. It all seems on par with video game collector editions at launch, until you realize that these versions of the game will gift players an equippable XP and Loot Drop Boost Mod; most likely a special Relic you can ...
Last year's nominee for best RPG and winner of best OST on the game awards that matter in Southeast Asia is getting a PC release. And we won't have to wait that long. The former exclusive Nintendo Switch JRPG with the lovely 3D/2D retro diorama graphics and 8 character narrative flow will be out on Steam June 7, according to a now-deleted blog pos...
From Software's game director Hidetaka Miyazaki is renowned for helping out the gamepad peripheral industry. How? By having fans of his games break controllers out of pure frustration at the no-nonsense sink-or-swim challenge imposed by the Dark Souls trilogy, Bloodborne, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. It seems that Miyazaki may want to be more th...
Poor Ser Jorah; he can't catch a break. When he's not exiled by his one true love Daenerys Targaryen, through most of his own doing to be fair, he now has to contend with the fact Jon Snow is getting cozy in that dragon roost. Still, he's taking what he can get. "I think he's back within the loving embrace of Daenerys which is where he's been work...

A Croatian composer named Elvis Stanic has accused The Witcher 3 creator CD Projekt Red of plagiarism (via Reddit). Specifically, one of the tracks of the game's soundtrack is allegedly "inspired" by a composition of his. For comparison's sake, here's the song Elvis did: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMi9AiHJgaU ...and here's the Witcher 3...
Despite what's been going on with Ubisoft and their plethora of Far Cry and live service shooter games, the adventures of Sam Fisher are far from over. According to IGN's latest Unfiltered podcast episode featuring Ubisoft's CEO Yves Guillemot, he said the company has plans for the Splinter Cell series. He answers the question concerning the serie...
Talk about making quite an impression. Metronomik just released a new trailer showcasing the ins and outs of its upcoming rhythm game-like action title No Straight Roads. It's an acoustic cover of an old classical music piece (the tune's name escapes me because I'm an uncultured swine), performed adorably by main character Mayday. https://youtu.be...
Gearbox released the official list of gun brands available in Borderlands 3. Previous series featured trademark brands that produce different types of guns from fast-shooting shotguns to assault rifles that fire explosions like Torgue. Heck, if you reload a Tediore, you instead chuck it as a grenade then re-digitizes a new one in your hand. Slick, ...
So Shazam! is a blast. It's got superheroics, it's got heart, and best of all it proves that Warner Bros. execs should have gone for the cartoony over-the-top aesthetics and tone ala Justice League Unlimited and all those other WB Animation fares. Let's talk about how it ended, and what it means for the DC Extended Universe. The climax of Shaza...
