Hideo Kojima Talks Game Design And Westworld

How Building Gunpla Has Helped Me Reconnect With My Fandoms

When you’re a games writer, you have to breathe, eat, and shit the medium every single day of your life. Something that doesn’t get addressed often is just how exhausting this career can be, mentally. What used to be a hobby is now a job, and when your job is stressful, the last thing you want is to do it off the clock. By consequence, gaming isn’t something I do for fun as much now....

How Marvel Went From Bankruptcy To Billions

Just about every great comic book story has a darkest hour moment: a point in the tale where all seems lost. The heroes are on their knees, the city’s a smoldering ruin and the villains are closing in for the kill. For Marvel, its darkest hour came in the winter of 1996. A company that had grown in stature throughout the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s thanks to the often stunning art and storytelling in such comics as Fantastic Four and The Amazing Spider-Man, Marvel’s financial success had reached a peak by the early ’90s....

How The Mcu Made An Obscure Avengers Fighting Game Relevant

When you think of Marvel fighting games, your mind probably goes to Capcom’s library (everything from their initial X-Men game to the latest Marvel vs. Capcom crossover battle). Or maybe you think about the X-Men: Mutant Academy games Activision used to make. Perhaps the weird one-off that is Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects (Johnny Ohm, we hardly knew ye). I highly doubt the first thing you think about is Avengers in Galactic Storm: a one-on-one fighter from Data East with CGI sprites based on a 1990s Avengers storyline that nobody ever talks about....

How To Make A Private Server Or Custom Game Gang Beasts

Gang Beasts is one of the goofiest games you can play with friends. Imagine the puzzles of Human Fall Flat combined with the insanity of Fall Guys, and you have a pretty good idea of what to expect here. Except this is all about PVP - you versus other players, knocking them down in the most hilarious ways possible. This is the perfect game to play with friends, and quite frankly, playing by yourself or with online strangers just doesn’t offer the same kind of experience....

Hp200Av Powerline Internet Av Kit Review

As any competitive player of Call of Duty or Battlefield will tell you: it’s all about the stability of your internet connection. While most consoles these day support Wi-Fi, if you can’t get the maximum number of green bars going you are at a serious disadvantage. It’s the same reason that developers push for dedicated servers, and it’s a main detractor for those who want to play a match from beginning to end with no hassle....

I Want A Jurassic Park Story That Doesn T End In Tragedy

I need to say right off the bat that I understand that in asking for this, I am completely missing the point of the Jurassic Park stories. I know that they’re about mankind’s hubris, about our doomed desire to control creatures far beyond our power, about the flaws of playing god, and about how life, uh, finds a way. But wouldn’t it be fun if, just for once, they weren’t?...
