Lauren Faust is a powerful person. She helped take a relatively unremarkable children's show aimed at pre-teen girls and transform it into a multi-media, multi-generation, multi-billion-dollar sensation. She also apparently h...

Oh, what's that Valve? You won't allow the 3DS eShop's critical darling Mutant Mudds on Steam? Do you honestly think that's going to stop Jools Watsham and the rest of Renegade Kid? To hell with you and the horse you rode in ...

[Update: Jools Watsham of Renegade Kid has clarified that 'No' votes do not directly cancel out 'Yes' votes on Greenlight, but it's not clear if 'No' votes have any other impact on a game's chances to make it onto Steam....

"What if John McClain died in Die Hard and became a ghost?" That little idea is what gave birth to the whole concept of Murdered: Soul Suspect. "He wouldn't just give up, he wouldn't stop," senior design producer Eric Stude...

Mount & Blade is one of my favorite games on PC. It's an open-ended world that allows just about anything. If you want to be a traveling merchant, a mercenary for hire, a thieving bandit king, or the champion ge...

It exists. Mortal Kombat Komplete Edition for PC exists. To accompany the recent confirmation that this port is in production at High Voltage Software, Warner Bros. sent out two screenshots. A couple more wouldn't have hurt, ...

Nostalgia is a funny thing. Games we remember as being ground-breaking and awesome in our youth sometimes don't hold up as well when we're older. This also makes the generations who missed the games the first time they were r...

Last month, some evidence was uncovered that NetherRealm's 2011 Mortal Kombat game might be coming to the PC, but as always, grains of salt were passed around. Now there is some strong evidence that the game will be comi...

What is it about 2013, that all these indie games with nebulous half a decade long development cycles are finally coming out in the Spring? First we had BattleBlock Theater, and now, Monaco is joining the fun on April 24th, o...

I'm glad that I refrain from judging a game on its trailer, especially its first one, because the alpha trailer for Jane Jensen's Moebius is... well it's not great. Camp, full of dodgy, forced accents, and poorly put togethe...

If you still haven't decided if you want to buy Modern Warfare 3 on PC, then get downloading as you've got until Monday to get in as much free multiplayer action as you can muster. To help sway you further, there's 33% knocke...

George Carlin said baseball was known as America's national pastime because "it takes so damn long to play a game." He was right. Never is this more clear than in playing simulated baseball in a videogame. While it does often retain the fun and excitement of being at the ballpark, it can also unintentionally include the tedium as well. Guess what MLB 2K12 includes?

The Mistborn trilogy of high fantasy novels will leave its mark on this medium with a prequel game in development for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and Mac. Mistborn: Birthright will feature an original story written by Brando...

Electronic Arts is "not going to turn [Mirror's Edge] into a shooter," EA Labels executive vice president Patrick Söderlund professed to Eurogamer, responding to some fans' fears that the upcoming reboot would ...

Is there a list of games that would be worth trying with a virtual-reality headset like the Oculus Rift? Without giving much thought at all to which titles deserve being featured, Mirror's Edge has got to be worthy of p...

Might & Magic: Duel of Champions is yet another contender in this year of our collectible card game lords, 2013. CCGs are being released in droves this year and with most of them running on the free-to-play model, competi...

There isn't much I can say about this trailer except that it reminds me of how badly I want to be playing Might and Magic Heroes VI. Too bad it was pushed back from September to October. There is a silver lining though. Game...

If you didn't play Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes either when it released for Nintendo DS or later in its fancy, shiny high-definition version, you're missing one of the most strategic and clever puzzle games in rec...

Might & Magic X Legacy is a throwback to first-person, turn-based role-playing games. Yes, that's a really long name for a genre but it's what it is. The controls and gameplay are exactly the same as older Might &...

The Twitter account for the Might & Magic series teased a secret page, which of course didn't stay hidden from the crazy power of the internet for too long. This page just has a big "X" and "Meet us at PAX East!" It doesn...

Ubisoft and German studio Limbic Entertainment have announced Might & Magic X Legacy, following the teaser from earlier this week. Good timing, considering PAX East is just around the corner and the companies will be sho...

The newest addition to the Might & Magic Heroes franchise is only a few weeks away, and Ubisoft has decided to sweeten the pot for pre-order customers with a nice little set of bonus items and characters. All p...

I like the Heroes of Might & Magic series, but it has never been perfect. It's a very niche set of games that aren't quite role-playing titles or full-fledged strategy games. They are almost their own weird hybrid ge...

I wouldn't have necessarily expected a game like Microsoft Flight to show up on Steam, but such an arrival does put the free-to-play flight sim in front of a bunch of new gamers, so you can't really argue with those results. ...

Deep Silver revealed that Metro: Last Light has been kicking some serious ass. In its first week alone, US retail sales eclipsed 2033's lifetime sales. Last Light sales on the PC tripled Metro 2033's worldwide, and across all...

In reporting its second-quarter fiscal 2013 results, THQ announced the delay of South Park: The Stick of Truth. Originally scheduled for March 5, 2013, the Obsidian Entertainment-developed role-playing game is now looking to ...

Metro 2033 was released on March 16, 2010. As I write this, it is May 30, 2011. You might be asking yourself why there's a review for Metro 2033 over a year after its launch.  Well, Destructoid never officially revi...

Despite the fact that Platinum Games has never had a Game of the Year style re-release, and the fact that Konami as a whole isn't big on immediate re-releases, a Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Ultimate Edition has just been a...

The new project from Tribute Games, Mercenary Kings, caught our eye early on. What can I say? We're in love with Paul Robertson's work, and 2D action games reminiscent of Metal Slug are pretty cool, too. As it turns out, the ...

It's been a while since we heard news on Mega Man Unlimited, the balls-awesome Mega Man fan game that fooled even Capcom into thinking it was legit! You may remember my interview last year with project lead Philippe "MegaPhi...

Mega Man fans are in for one last treat in 2012 -- another Mega Man Christmas Carol fangame! After the first and second iterations, Sprites Inc. is back with a third title, which is a remixed version of the first one with th...

Have there really already been four of these bundles? We first heard about The Free Bundle back in January, and since then they have been highlighting several interesting PC games, all of which are available for no charge. Ac...

Very few fan games have industry professionals on board with the project -- and that's exactly what the Mega Man 25th Anniversary game has going for it. Naturally, the mere mention of a collective of professionals has turned ...

In the glorious pantheon of vaporware, Sadness stands at the tippy top. The hype behind the game -- if it ever truly existed in some playable capacity at any point in time -- was only matched by the curious insistence of its ...

According to Twitter account @InnerSphereNews, that is -- a viral feed for the game. Fragments of an image of a mech without a warrior were released over the last couple of weeks, and Eurogamer pieced them together for a bett...

MDK2, one of BioWare's lesser known titles, recently got a WiiWare port which is great if you have a Wii, not so much for the rest of us. Good news is that some BioWare vets (now with Overhaul Games) are reworking the old tit...
