Okay

In theory, Star Wars: Galactic Racer has all the ingredients of something that feels made especially for me. It is a racer game, which I play far too many of, and it’s a roguelike, which I sink excessively much time into. This is before bringing up that the old Episode 1 podracing game was something I binged every single weekend as soon as I got out of school. There was this feeling that the stars had aligned to give me something I was really excited to get started with. In practice, maybe I created this pedestal that the game couldn’t…

This is a $500 markup over Sony’s suggested retail price. Rumors started circulating late last night that GameStop was expected to raise the price of the all-digital console, howeverever we did not receive confirmation of this until this morning, when the company updated its website with the altered prices. Websites where third-party resellers can move product, such as Best Buy, Amazon, and Walmart, have also changed their prices in line with this. This price…

PlatinumGames CEO Atsushi Inaba has said the company isn’t done with Bayonetta. The action hero who quad-wields guns and summons monsters with her hair last saw a mainline title back in 2022 with Bayonetta 3, with a spin-off entitled Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon following the next year.

Similarly, original director Hideki Kamiya has also departed, founding the new studio Clovers, which…

Following behind several other games in the series, NBA 2K25 is getting delisted just two years after its initial release from digital storefronts. This will render the game completely unplayable, including the title’s single-player mode, MyCareer. Initially launched back in 2024, 2K is set to pull the title from sale on October 30, 2026. Online servers will remain active until January 1, 2027. This means that as of that point, every mode within the game, both online and single-player, will be rendered unplayable. Players who purchase the game before October 30 will be able to access offline modes like MyNBA…

I can’t remember the last time I got hooked on a game before I even played it. I’m sure it has happened before; it would be weird if it didn’t, but I can’t put my finger on the exact moment. Well, I couldn’t before getting that feeling in the opening moments of Ace Combat 8: Wings of Theve. There you are, riding wingman to a character you knew from the second one was destined to die, taking in the skies. The majestic blue vista that the team at Namco Bandai Aces crafted for you. Thus far, all you know is…

Up until this point, my experience with the Lawn Mowing Simulator series has been vicarious through a friend who would never shut up about it. This isn’t necessarily a fair presentation of the game because that friend in question was a landscaper, so the game and his life matched up fairly well. It’s weird to think we would eventually find a day and age where our favorite game that we play to relax after a long day of work is literally the thing we need to relax from. Who am I to judge, though? I constantly do the same. Me…

Kena: Scars of Kosmora is set to launch in 2027, developer Ember Labs has confirmed. The title was announced earlier this February with a 2026 release date featured at the end of said trailer; however, given that we are now in October with no release date on the site, this delay makes sense. Announced via a PlayStation Blog Post, we also got another look at the game, something we have been waiting for since February as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12EQpTwn4lY In the post, we got an overview of the story, which will feature an older Kena realizing the limits of her power…
