Hard work can be necessary, but have you considered the fact that working hard is also horrible? One Arc Raiders player didn’t until it was too late, so she momentarily dedicated her life to a rare achievement only 14 other people have obtained.The fact that streamer and YouTuber Eskay dedicated what she says were “two months and 300 hours” to a unique Arc Raiders achievement and obliterated her goal is hugely impressive. But Eskay herself isn’t sure that the time it took to grab the Cantina Legend rank, which only the top 100 players in the already challenging Hotshot rank…

It may be nostalgia talking, but I’ve a real soft spot for visuals inspired by the original PlayStation, when developers were just learning how to harness 3D. Vital Shell is a mecha love letter to those halcyon days, pitting you against swarms of enemies in your oversized (yet very cute) robot suit, and it’s making real waves on Steam.The game’s setup is simple: once you pick your mech, you drop into an area and start blasting through everything that gets in your way. Gradually, you come face to face with the boss, whom you’ve to out-maneuver and take down.It’s quick…

Stop us if you’ve heard this one before. After assuring that he was content with the torch being passed to a new generation of creatives bringing a different Spider-Man to the screen, director of the Tobey Maguire-led trilogy, Sam Raimi, appears to have had a change of heart.During an interview with the Associated Press about his new film, Send Help, Raimi was asked whether there really was no chance of him returning to give the wall-crawling menace he brought to the screen a fourth attempt. The only concern for Raimi, however, is how that could affect another webhead on the…

Plenty of indie games riffing on Paper Mario’s craftsy style and turn-based, timing-sensitive combat have come out in the last few years, but Escape from Ever After is a rare one that seems to have landed on what made the Nintendo series so great.The paper cutout-styled RPG launched earlier this month, on January 23, to stellar Steam reviews.

Crafting a world that begs to be explored is a tricky thing to do, especially when the world is kind of sucky, doubly so when it’s woven mostly through words with only supplementary imagery to provide a broader context. Yet Citizen Sleeper’s is one I’m often thinking about because amongst all the grand sci-fi concepts is a grounded sense of reality that you’ll always find in the best of the cyberpunk genre. And here I am, a year on from the second game’s release, tempted to return once more, but this time in a form based on its tabletop…

There are not enough games in the world where it feels like the initial concept was born from the thought, “wouldn’t it be funny if…” I’m no fool, I know this is because developing a video game is akin to getting hit by a car, miraculously coming away from it unscathed, only to be hit by six more cars as you continue your journey. In any case, this is still how I would like to imagine Trust Me, I Nailed It was born, a turn-based strategy game where you have to make cool video edits of some warrior to…

Skyrim’s lead designer and former Bethesda veteran Bruce Nesmith has chimed in on what he wants to see from Mass Effect 5 (or whatever name the next Mass Effect game ends up with) and – surprise, surprise – he thinks BioWare could do well by ripping a few pages out of the Bethesda playbook.”I would hope that they would try to just take their lore and make a modern game of it,” Nesmith says in an interview with Press Box PR. “One of the knocks on Mass Effect that I would have is that they always felt like they were…
