After fan speculation and rumors, it looks like the iconic monster from the famed Hellraiser series Pinhead will be making his way to Dead By Daylight. Initially teased by Behaviour Interactive, it was officially confirmed with a brief, cryptic trailer released.…

For a brief time, there was a bit of Zoop buzz prior to its release. Puzzle/dexterity games are addictive, and a few of them broke into the mainstream back in the day. There's the Tetrises and Dr. Marios that were highly influential, along with Sega's Puyo Puyo series (which included Dr. Robotnik's mean Bean Machine, a Puyo Puyo clone), and the arcade…

For the last two years, eSports' live events were ravaged by a global pandemic as the coronavirus shut down all major events with a seemingly indefinite window for a return to in-person tourneys. This year's EVO event, like 2020, was a digital only event with online matches taking place based on region and player location, and most of the coverage and…

After a seemingly quiet rollout exclusively in Canada September 2019 for iOS and Android devices, Konami shut down and discontinued the action/adventure game Castlevania: Grimoire Of Souls just a year later after player support for it was considered very low.

Sonic's rival Knuckles was practically confirmed for the Sonic the Hedgehog sequel after visual aid props were seen on the set of the film with Sonic himself, Tails, and the red echidna on sight.

Often seen at Game Stream Festivals, the details about the official release date of Windjammers 2 has been elusive. It appears a street date may be closer to fruition. Developers Dotemu, makers of Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, have announced an open beta for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC August 11 and will go live…

Since the launch of the Switch, Nintendo has been strong advocates for setting a stage for independent developers to present their wares to to the public. Games like Hollow Knight, Overcooked, and Streets of Rage 4 have been on display in the past.

The event will be about 20 minutes long, and will air 9:00a.m PT (noon Eastern) to feature "…

I'm trying to think of a more useless video game franchise than the series of Army men games that plagued the video gamesphere for way longer than it ever needed to. How did this happen? I can't have a Dark Chronicle 3, but the planet demanded a Sarge's Heroes 2? Who had compromising photos? What skeletons were revealed? Are these games even bad?…

Valve's upcoming handheld system may be a pretty powerful piece of hardware when looking under the hood at the horsepower. A lot of social media has touted the Steam Deck as a "Nintendo Switch killer". The Nintendo IP exclusivity alone practically throws that argument out the window, but the comparisons are very opaque.…

Generally, more than a few years into a console's life, the unit sales would start to taper off.

According to Nintendo's most recent fiscal report, The Switch has sold 89.04 million units since its launch in 2017. For reference,…

Once a staple and standard for gaming, the arcades have been a decaying medium across the world. Now even in Japan, where they thrived the most, many revered attractions have been shuttering their doors. The Ikebukuro GiGO, which has been in business for 28 years and during the golden age of the gaming industry, will be closing down September 28,…

Nintendo is at it again! A few years ago Nintendo teamed up with Hasbro to release Monopoly Gamer: Super Mario Bros and then again with Monopoly Gamer: Mario Kart.

Well, the team-ups are continuing, but not with Monopoly. This time it's tackling The Game of Life. 

The Game of Life: Super Mario Edition…

When I think about some of the best sleeper games I’ve played, key titles come to mind; Demon’s Crest for the SNES, Mr. Bones on the Sega Saturn, and the Colony Wars series on the PSX. While I don’t think Panzer Dragoon fits the mold of a hit sleeper game or a dark horse that takes home awards, it has quietly been one of the better Sega games…

Given the data size of your modern game application, memory expansion for the the next gen consoles is almost guaranteed to be a must, and it's essential to shop around for SSDs based on download speeds and loading times. For the Xbox Series X, the solid state drive of choice is the Seagate expansion card. The Playstation 5, the most optimal…

When Kenji Matsubara stepped down at Sega almost to the day last year, it came as a little bit of a surprise to many. It was never stated that his resignation was for personal or professional reasons, as Sega had a financially successful year in 2020.

He wouldn't stay away from the business for too long, as the former head of Sega would be…

Kena: Bridge Of Spirits was first revealed back in February during Sony's State of Play digital live presentation.
