Maybe some N64 games are better left forgotten, but don't tell that to the reconstituted Star Fox studio seemingly teasing a Buck Bumble revival
Right about now, it’s time to rock with the biggity Buck Bumble. Those were the words that introduced a generation – or, rather, a handful of millennials – to the joys of cyborg bumblebee warfare, and it seems they’re now more relevant than ever. Original developer Argonaut Games came back to life just a few years ago, and the studio is taking the opportunity of April 20th’s green haze to seemingly tease a Buck Bumble revival.”Right about now Buck Bumble is officially your new wholesome 4/20 mascot,” the company says in its Bluesky announcement, “and we will not be taking…

Last week, reports began to circulate that Valve had scored a legal victory against the popular World of Warcraft private server Turtle WoW, and the owners of the server have now confirmed that it will soon be shutting down.

The Adeptus Mechanicus’ obsession with the latest technology will be its downfall, I swear. Like an Apple obsessive buying every new iteration of the iPhone, the Ad Mech will bankrupt itself by stumbling upon the wrong tomb in search of its latest xenos weapon. That’s exactly what happens in the new Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War 4 trailer, as Magos Dominus Nulpherus-1 accidentally awakens an ancient Necron burial site in the pursuit of new tech. Stop me if you’ve heard this one before. I say this as a staunch Ad Mech Enjoyer. My tabletop army has taken a turn towards…

Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow begins filming as James Gunn gives us a sneak peek at Lex Luthor's mind games and the Brainiac logo
James Gunn has shared the first behind-the-scenes look at Superman sequel Man of Tomorrow as filming has finally begun.Gunn took to Twitter to share an image of a chessboard, Lex Luthor’s inmate ID, and some kind of box that displays the Brainiac logo. If I had to speculate, this is a scene where Superman goes to visit Luthor in prison in order to persuade him to join in the fight against Brainiac. Superman slides the box across the table and the two partake in a game of chess (which has happened quite a bit in the comics). Boom. You can…

New horror movie Hokum may be about a haunted hotel, but director Damian McCarthy promises it's nothing like Stephen King adaptation The Shining
Damian McCarthy’s new horror movie Hokum may be set in a creepy hotel but it couldn’t be further from Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, the writer-director insists.In the latest issue of SFX magazine, which features Stranger Things: Tales From ’85 on the cover, the Irish filmmaker recalled how he actively tried to avoid being inspired by the acclaimed Stephen King adaptation – and that he initially found it dangerously “tempting” to lift certain scenes and scares.”It was almost like, ‘We really can’t do anything that was done in that because it’s been done. It’s got its own voice.’ It was one…
Ready to square up to largely spherical slimes? These new Slime Sea codes should see you slice through the belligerent blobs in no time at all. If you’re hoping to spin for a better race or weapon without the grind, here’s your answer. Slime Sea isn’t a bandit beater – it’s a blob beater. Is it the first of its kind? Surely not. But it is one of the more popular new PvE combat games on the platform right now, with visits closing in on three million as of mid-April. And with a name change reflecting a slight gameplay shift,…
