Is Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League a salvageable live-service game? That question was top of mind as I reviewed the latest DC Arkhamverse game from Rocksteady Studios.
There’s a new multiplayer game in Town: Foamstars. Square Enix’s latest is a riff on Splatoon that trades in ink for suds. I went into it expecting a quirky little arena shooter that would give me a weekend or two of fun before running out of steam as its live-service model began to rear its head. What I wasn’t expecting was a mountain of legibility problems that made it hard for me to tell what I was doing.
Blizzard's reputation has taken a pummelling over the last few years. In 2021, horrifying descriptions of the company's toxic workplace culture spilled onto the Internet, after a lawsuit was filed by California's Department of Fair Employment regarding «unlawful harassment, discrimination, and retaliation». Following the lawsuit, Blizzard made extensive promises about how they were going to address these problems. In an article published in January 2022, former President Mike Ybarra explained the company had established clear internal guidelines as to appropriate conduct, and had made multiple hires to improve culture leadership, human resources, and equality within the company.
On January 4, I received an email I had both been anticipating and dreading for months. My copy of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, one of my most anticipated games of 2024, had dropped into my inbox. Usually, that moment would give me a jolt of energy. I love critiquing games that have real substance, and I was still chewing on 2020’s unforgettable Yakuza: Like a Dragon several years later. That RPG tells a thematically rich story about an unlikely hero finding his confidence amid a quest to take on Japan’s criminal underworld.
Microsoft Excel isn't exactly up there when it comes to anyone's top-ten list of exciting software. Regarded as the dependable if more-than-slightly dull workhorse of productivity apps, the mere mention of Excel brings to mind endless spreadsheets, budgetary calculations, and… oh no you've fallen asleep already. But when someone creates a functional 16-bit CPU inside it, well, that might just be worth waking up for.
Spy x Anya: Operation Memories looks like an appropriately-dumb riff on the Spy x Family extravaganza, and now it has a release date.
The idea of an Acer handheld gaming PC isn’t surprising given that all the big laptop makers are getting in on the action. However, comments made by the company suggest it might actually be on the cards, and that gives me hope for a new, cheaper Steam Deck rival. By that, I mean a portable Windows 11 rig that comes in at the same price as Valve’s machine, unlike most other alternatives with a similar agenda.
Actor Norman Reedus is seemingly leaning into rumors about Death Stranding 2's official title.
