Back in August, I wrote up a preview of Vanillaware's 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim that focused on the prologue to the full adventure. In my post, I said I'd written down several notes to keep track of everyone in the game and the respectiv...

The incomparable Myst is coming back in style. (Did it ever truly leave?) Original creator Cyan has "reimagined" Myst for VR – but even if you don't have a headset, you'll still be able to play along. The remake, simply titled Myst, ...

What the heck was Killer7 even about? Japan being on the brink of war with the United States? Political parties being infiltrated by terrorists? Brutal assassinations being carried out against key political figures? It sounds like a Tom Cla...

No real surprise here but Daedalic's Lord of the Rings: Gollum game isn't going to end with Sméagol sitting atop a pile of bodies. Video games often skew toward power fantasies, but Daedalic's being respectful of Tolkien's...

As the gray hairs have slowly replaced the brown ones on my temples, I've become quite fond of shorter games. I don't mind diving into something meaty that takes me two weeks or more to complete, but with the color of my hair reminding me o...

It's been five years since Atlus and Vanillaware first revealed 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim to the world. After a couple of delays and a dropped platform, it launched last year in Japan to critical success. As a fan of the developer's prev...

In today's contest you can win a PC copy of Maneater! It's Shark Week! I actually kind of hate Shark Week, because it's terrifying. Sharks are terrifying. The ocean is, in fact, fucking terrifying. I had a nightmare the other night where I ...

Sometimes you don't have to choose between quality and quantity. Sometimes you get both. And, when the stars align just right and fortune's on your side, all that quality and quantity comes very cheap. That's the case with this week's newes...

Double Fine and Jack Black are teaming up yet again. More than a decade after Black starred in Brutal Legend, he's back to contribute to Psychonauts 2. Check out this trailer where Black sings on the soundtrack and takes Raz through a drea...

You'd be forgiven if this whirlwind of a year pushed the existence of Little Nightmares II completely out of your brain. Developer Tarsier Studios hasn't really said anything about it for all of 2020. Publisher Bandai Namco has follow...

In today's contest you can win a Switch copy of Infliction: Extended Cut! Happy 4th of July, everyone! The 4th is cool and all, but a little too patriotic and a little too un-scary for me. The ratios are way off, here. I don't like it, so l...

I don't cover a ton of regular gaming news, so if you see my name in the article you can just assume it's going to be in the running for Greatest Game Ever. I have an eye for this sort of thing. At 33 years old, Say No! More is exactly the ...
