Devil May Cry showrunner thinks most video game movie announcements "won't come to fruition" or will be "cringe" because "they're not really run by the people that made the games"
There are more video game movies and shows being made than ever. For every Super Mario Mario shooting for the stars at the box office, however, there are several more middling efforts – including Prime Video’s recent live-action Yakuza series and Return to Silent Hill – that didn’t quite recapture the magic players experienced on consoles.But, still, there is gold in them there video game hills. And a rush has ensued: Helldivers, Duke Nukem, It Takes Two, and Metal Gear Solid have all been unveiled as potential projects over the past few years.Now, there are more video game adaptations being…
If Valve isn’t going to bring us Left 4 Dead 3 any time soon, we’ll just have to get our zombie game fix elsewhere, and Mann Versus Zombies is looking like just what I need. This total-conversion mod for Team Fortress 2 transforms the multiplayer shooter into a gradually escalating horde survival experience akin to Call of Duty Zombies. Built by a team of modders that has dubbed itself Breadworks, it brings the timeless roster of characters and locations into a fresh spin on a tried-and-tested format. One of my favorite parts of Team Fortress 2 is Mann vs. Machine,…
Valve commits to a reservation system for today's new batch of Steam Controller stock, which gives me a lot more hope for the launch of the Steam Machine and Steam Frame
Earlier in the week, I reported on how Valve’s new Steam Controller sold out almost immediately, and there were little to no precautions taken to prevent resellers from making a profit on it on sites like eBay. As bad as this is for the PC controller’s launch, the main reason I was worried was that it pointed to a much worse situation for the upcoming Steam Frame and Steam Machine.Thankfully, some of my fears have now been waylaid because Valve has published a new blog post that shows the brand is doing what it can to prevent the resellers at…
The Sunday Papers is our weekly roundup of great writing about (mostly) videogames from across the web. Sundays are, and apologies in advance for the less-fun-than-average intro, for peeling back the layers of the smelly legal onion that is scattering pet ashes in the UK. The government’s Regulatory Position Statement (or RPS – no relation) suggests this is only easily done on property you already own, which makes things tricky for my flat leasehold – if you’re unfamiliar with this term, it’s a bit like what Steam is to games, in that I don’t technically own jack shit. My willingness…

The Forza Horizon 6 car list is massive, as is to be expected for a Forza game, at nearly 400 cars spread across just over 70 manufacturers. There are a few motors making their debut in the Forza series but there are also plenty returning from previous games too. Fitting the setting of Forza Horizon 6, there are also a ton of Japanese cars on the list too from the likes of Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and more. Below, I’ve laid out the full list of cars in Forza Horizon 6 that we know of so far.How many cars are in…
007 First Light's License to Kill system adds nuance to its escalating action as "Bond won't shoot an unarmed man," says developer
007 First Light flexes plenty of the sly, creative problem solving IO Interactive has been building over the course of the Hitman series. But, it’s still a licensed game – building on over 70 years of James Bond movies and books – which means that a gaming adaptation is still going to need to fit within the rules for what Bond is.”We define the rule set in some way, though, which is quite nice,” says senior combat designer Tom Marcham. It’s been up to the team to carve out how IO Interactive’s unique spin on a young James Bond, earning…
Slay the Spire 2 patches are half as frequent as the first game's because doing weekly updates "was a lot of work so it really sucked"
Slay the Spire 2 maker Mega Crit has stopped patching its hit roguelike every single week because an update cadence that frequent understandably sucks for everyone involved, according to the indie dev.As Mega Crit pushed yet another patch into Steam’s beta branch earlier today, the studio took some time to address its slightly slower-than-usual release timings. Rather than enjoying weekly patches, as the first Slay the Spire did, the sequel now gets patched every two weeks instead.But don’t worry, fortnightly patches are an effort to pump out (hopefully) better updates that don’t burn the devs to to ash. Plus, Mega…
