Diablo 4's demon-summoning Warlock is the Witch Doctor alternative I've been hoping for, and we're getting it in D2 Resurrected as well
The end is nigh. Sanctuary lies on a knife’s edge: a single tilt is the one thing keeping the tides from turning. Mephisto has possessed the heavenly Akarat, using his new form to spread corruption across the land. In Diablo 4 Lord of Hatred, you’ll team up with Lilith – the Daughter of Hatred herself – to put an end to the bloodied wolf once and for all. We’ve already added the mighty Paladin to the roster, but Blizzard teased that another champion would join the ranks of Diablo 4 classes. I was silently crossing my fingers for the return…
‘F*** me, it’s going to carry on’: Peter Molyneux says he teared up watching Playground’s Fable reveal
Fable creator Peter Molyneux says he teared up watching the recent gameplay reveal of Xbox and Playground Games’ reboot.Previously, Playground said it hadn’t shown Molyneux its version ahead of its big reveal last month, so the former Lionhead Studios designer and current 22Cans boss had to react alongside the general public.“When I was watching the Fable trailer, I just felt myself tearing up”, Molyneux revealed in a new IGN interview. “I know that I could probably be slaughtered for saying that, but I am someone who cries frequently, and I felt incredibly emotional, and the reason I felt emotional was:…
After a mixed response from some critics, Christopher Nolan looks back at Interstellar's growing reputation as a modern classic: "It's incredibly rewarding"
Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar debuted as one of the auteur director’s most polarizing films, with critics and audiences alike mixed in their reception. Now, 12 years after its release, Nolan is looking back on how Interstellar’s reputation has evolved, with many considering it an unsung modern classic.”The film was received in a slightly ambiguous way,” Nolan recalls in a Variety interview with actor Timothée Chalamet. “It was a little bit sniffy. Some of the responses were a bit sniffy from critics and a little from audiences. It made very good money around the world, particularly. There was a sense of people…

It’s been barely been two years since the Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection launched on digital platforms, and it’s already on the verge of going extinct. Publisher Limited Run Games announced today that the collection is going the way of the dinosaur this March.”We wanted to give you an early heads-up that the Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection will no longer be available for purchase on digital storefronts after March 31, 2026,” the publisher says in a Steam post. “If you already purchased the game, don’t worry – you’ll still be able to redownload and play it anytime.”As the name…
I have very fond memories of Black and White. I don’t think I was even ten years old when I first got hold of it, but I remember owning the white cover instead of the black one: an intentional choice because I was, of course, a good kid. But then, I became a god. Initially, I chose to be the Cow, a generally benevolent creature that’s somewhat of an all-rounder. But I got tired of being the good guy: tired of my Cow consistently eating everything when I wasn’t looking. No, I wanted to be something mighty: something with bite.…
OG Fable designer Peter Molyneux cried tears of joy watching Xbox reveal the new reboot, even though he thinks "there was a slight antiseptic feel about it"
Legendary game designer Peter Molyneux, known for pioneering the god game genre and creating the Fable series, had a profoundly emotional reaction to the recent re-reveal and gameplay trailer for Xbox’s Fable reboot.Molyneux left longtime Fable studio Lionhead back in 2012 after serving as lead designer on Fable 3, years before the series changed hands from Lionhead to Playground Games. That said, he was obviously instrumental to the series’ creation and, apparently, still feels a strong connection to it.”When I was watching the Fable trailer, I just felt myself tearing up,” Molyneux told IGN. “I know that I could probably…
Come shout down dystopia in the demo for Amanita's fancy cardboard mind control puzzler Phonopolis
Czech indie developers Amanita Design – creators of Samorost, Creaks and Machinarium, among other marvels – have released a demo for Phonopolis, their 3D cardboard adventure about a young man called Felix who is trying to save a city brainwashed by massive loudspeakers. Protected by his headphones, Felix is on a mission to stop the authoritarian Leader from issuing the Absolute Tone, which will “strip every citizen of their humanity forever”. Seems like a thing to avoid! I relate intensely to Felix at the moment, because I’m having trouble with my lugholes and can barely hear anything. Thank to the…
While Playground's Fable looks a little "antiseptic," series creator Peter Molyneux will be "one of the first people to play it"
Just before my interview with Peter Molyneux, I told my mom that I was chatting to ‘the man who made Fable.’ “Oh, is that the one where you did the little Cossack Dance?!” she asked, referring to Fable 2. “You loved that game!” While I’ve built my career on titles like Diablo, League of Legends, and Vampire: The Masquerade, Fable is, perhaps, the series I played most as a child. I loved its zany energy: its stiff-upper-lip comedy, and vibrant, ye olde English world. I spent many a Friday night playing poker at the Temple of Shadows (in my imagination,…
