On days like today, it’s important to remember that for six years, one of the best modern beat ‘em ups was locked away from players.Scott Pilgrim vs the World: The Game was originally released as a digital-only Xbox 360 and PS3 game back in 2010, but was delisted in December 2014 and became impossible to buy from that point on.For six long years players campaigned to get Ubisoft to resurrect the game and finally, in January 2021, it returned on modern platforms as Scott Pilgrim vs the World: The Game – Complete Edition. All was well with the world, happy…
On the face of it, Matt Johnson – of Blackberry and Nirvanna The Show The Band fame – might seem like an odd pick to helm a Magic: The Gathering movie.But as he recounts in a new interview with The Big Picture, the love of MTG runs deep in his veins.”That game taught me to read. When I was a kid, my dream was to be a professional Magic card player. I mean that literally. I made Day 2 in Detroit, 2006 Pro Tour [with] Champions of Kamigawa. I drafted like garbage. I sat next to [Magic] player Richard Hoaen,…
Since CD Projekt released The Witcher 3’s REDkit modding tools a couple of years ago, it’s been cool to see location revamps and new quests for the decade-old RPG start to emerge from the woodwork pretty regularly. The latest that’s caught my eye is a substantial overhaul of Gerry and co’s hangout Kaer Morhen, with a veteran modder having taken on the task of fleshing out the area to match its depiction in the first Witcher game.
Just yesterday, a fan-run Final Fantasy 14 news blog was taken down as Square Enix took action over allegedly harmful content aimed toward the MMO’s developers – now, another similar website has been closed, too.On March 2, Square Enix announced it was taking action in an open letter to the community, explaining that its priority is maintaining a safe workplace environment where developers don’t fear harassment from the public. As such, it filed a request for disclosure of the Netoge Sokuho (formerly “FF14 Sokuho”) blog’s administrator, alleging that they hosted harmful content that undermined the social reputation of the devs.In…
“As a kid, I’d sometimes go to work with my dad,” Brady Bell tells me. “We’d drive onto the MGM lot, and I’d see coin-op games through the window of one office. ‘That’s Mr Spielberg’s office,’ my dad would say. I remember thinking, ‘Wow – he gets to make movies and play games. That’s the life.” Years later, Bell found himself sitting in an LA office while the legendary director gave him notes. Modelers around them were working on outrageously expensive workstations, painstakingly creating mockups for Jurassic Park sequels. But there were no dinosaurs on Bell’s screen, not even a…
If you want to enjoy the majority of Capcom’s latest games on Steam, Denuvo DRM is a piece of baggage you will have to live with. Monster Hunter Wilds, Street Fighter 6, Resident Evil Requiem – all of them use it, and upcoming sci-fi game Pragmata will as well. Strangely, despite its widespread use of Denuvo, Capcom decided last month that for its excellent Resident Evil 4 Remake it would switch DRM software to something called Enigma Protector. However, just 28 days later, it’s thrown Enigma out, following reports of performance issues. Enigma isn’t by any means an unknown quantity…
The Scary Movie 6 trailer has landed, and, like the previous installments in the movie series, it ruthlessly parodies popular horror movies – and it also returns to its original inspiration, Scream.The very first Scary Movie was a parody of the first Scream, so it’s fitting that it’s coming full circle now, with the Scary Movie 6 trailer parodying Scream 6.The trailer starts with an extended scene of a killer revealed to be Ghostface on the subway, just like the sixth Scream movie, and also features a gag about Neve Campbell’s Sidney Prescott not appearing in Scream 6. You may…
While Resident Evil Requiem’s been hoovering up most of the Resi attention as of late, Capcom have managed to drag the Resident Evil 4 Remake back into the headlines. The game’s just had Enigma DRM quietly pulled from it, following a recent swap to that software from Devuvo DRM which reportedly had an impact on how well the Resi 4 Remake ran.
I’m starting to believe in League of Legends again. While I think that 2024 and 2025 have somewhat confused the MOBA’s overarching identity, 2026 feels like it could be a much-needed turning point. With League Next – a colossal new update that feels like a sequel – lurking on the horizon, and fewer champions releasing per year as a result of Riot’s attempts to really go in and fix the game, it feels like a step in the right direction. Despite major layoffs, however, the company has hired some serious talent over the past few months – including some star-studded…
Pokémon Pokopia is currently the highest-rated Pokémon game in Metacritic’s history.The life sim – which many are describing as a cross between Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Minecraft, Viva Pinata and Dragon Quest Builders – is set for release on March 5 as a Switch 2 exclusive.Critical reception to the game has been almost entirely positive, and as a result it currently stands on a score of 88 on Metacritic.This not only puts it level with Resident Evil Requiem and Mewgenics as the joint-highest rated game of 2026 so far, it also makes it the highest rated Pokémon game of all time…
