Southeast Asia had its annual PlayStation Experience in Bangkok, Thailand this year, which automatically means that there should be one in the US happening later, right? However, that will not be the case for 2018. During the official PlayStation Blogcast episode this week, PlayStation's Worldwide Studios chairman Shawn Layden said that the main r...
It's no wonder a lot of indie developers go to Kickstarter to get their games funded; it's a veritable success and a guaranteed victory in fanfare and sales. I mean, we have retro-esque 2D games like Shovel Knight and...er...okay...Mighty No. 9 was bad... and Bloodstained, which is actually delayed to 2019. Okay, hear me out: this upcoming action ...

Word on the street is that Devil May Cry 5 will feature optional microtransactions to save players from grinding your Neros and Dantes. According to a GameSpot report during Tokyo Game Show 2018, players can pay real-world money to purchase the series' in-game currency, red orbs. Much like halos in Bayonetta, red orbs can be used to buy moves, w...
2018 marks the 30th anniversary of the long-running Dragon Quest franchise. That's why series creator Yuji Horii and the folks at Square Enix decided to develop Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age in order to celebrate the milestone. After playing the game for almost 107 hours and ultimately obtaining the Platinum trophy, I believe that t...
A while ago, Kakuchopurei reported the massive layoffs of Telltale Games and the company keeping 25 remaining staff members as a skeleton crew to finish up the company's outstanding projects. So what happens next? Turns out, a lot. Let's put it in bullet points because there's still hope for narrative-controlled gaming fans out there who want to s...

Panda Global announced recently that Seonwoo "Infiltration" Lee will not be fighting at this weekend's Capcom Pro Tour Premier event at Tokyo Game Show 2018. Why? Because there's an investigation going on about him beating his then-wife physically. Allegations of it, at least. They divorced a few months after their 2017 marriage. Here's the offic...
Jets! Anime crossovers! French Revolutions! All this and more on this quick video we did on Kakuchopurei. There's just too many of them and even a number which were showcased in Day 1 but couldn't fit in the first vid (which you should totally check out right now). Anyway, have fun watching! https://youtu.be/tkJyMj-2wSM...
Marvel's Spider-Man is a success even before it launched thanks to fanboy and game journalism hype dating back to the last few E3s. But you know what? The final product earns its merit badge. I bought my copy, finished it, and thought it was a great first step in making Spider-Man games again. God bless Marvel for giving this IP to Sony and Insomn...
Deathcore band Suicide Silence recently had a video of its song "Subhuman" and it was being used to promote Capcom's Devil May Cry 5 during TGS 2018. Not anymore; bless our eardrums. The video was taken down by Capcom after hearing from fans via various social media platforms that the band's lead singer Eddie Hermida was accused last November of h...
The upcoming Bandai Namco fighting game Jump Force's aesthetic may be dividing the gaming community, but it's hard not to like a shonen manga/anime crossover game featuring Dragon Ball Z, Bleach, Naruto, and Yu Yu freakin' Hakusho. You heard right: Yusuke Urameshi and Toguro are going to be playable fighters in Jump Force. Check them out in action...

Here's the breakdown: Just like GTA Online, Red Dead Online will use the gameplay and world of Red D...
Calling all fans of VA-11 Hall-A, the pretty awesome cyberpunk visual novel for PC that focuses on bartending, awesome chatter with corgis and sex dolls, and awesome neo retro-esque music (at least in my humble opinion). Developer Sukeban Games is releasing an upcoming visual novel set in the same universe called N1RV Ann-A ~Trouble In False Paradi...
I'm at a loss at where to file this up under, to be honest. All I'm doing is sharing the fact that the games industry is a small world and that we're doing all we can to work together despite the obvious rivalries. Case in point, the latest Insomniac Games tweet, fresh out of releasing this year's best comic book game, talks about featuring the la...
Platform: PC, PS4, Xbox One Genre: Action Adventure, Graverobbing, Angsty British Girl Simulator If you're going into Shadow Of The Tomb Raider thinking that it's going to break & heighten your standards to a transcendent level, you'd be sorely mistaken.

This feature is currently in development... Update (19/9/2018): Added Challenge Tombs The third instalment in the second Tomb Raider reboot is out in the wild.

Ask and you shall receive. Here are the past SNK retrospectives: Why The Neo Geo Was Successful The Top 15 SNK Games You Must Play Before You Die The Art Of Shinkiro Back on August...
Everybody loves treasure and loot, especially if you're in a strange-yet-familiar fantasy land where you and your merry band of adventurers are searching for echoes in an elusive age. Okay, you don't literally do that in Square Enix's Dragon Quest XI, but you do level up and fight turn-based style with a motley crew of knights, spellcasters, and he...
