Valve is never making another Half-Life game. Okay? We've all come to terms with that, right? So, here's the next best thing. In honor of Half-Life's 20th anniversary, Black Mesa developer Crowbar Collective has released the...

One of my favorite games of the past decade is a wonderful little collection called NES Remix. From indiezero and Nintendo, this trio of games took classic NES titles and reimagined how people played them. It was a great success, but after ...

With how popular "battle royale" has become, it was only a matter of time that some modders would create a version of the game mode for id Software's legendary Doom. Thanks to Retrodex Gaming, we now can experience what an old-school take o...

Fan projects can really get me going, especially for retro franchises that don't get a lot of modern releases. Despite the fact that Sonic Mania was pretty rad that goes double for Sonic Maker, and upcoming fan game from the Sonic Make...

Work on the fan game Mega Man Battle Network Chrono X has steadily progressed over the years, and the team is now hosting their fifth demo iteration on March 18. It doesn't just sport a ton of new content -- the big addition is online multi...

The Mega Man fan game scene has produced some wonderful work. From old school 8-bit inspired first-person shooters to original Mega Man titles that give the originals a run for their money, or in one special case, a project that was convert...

Kid Icarus is an IP that doesn't get a whole lot of love from Nintendo. Since the first game released for the NES in 1986, only two subsequent games have been released, the last of which was a 2012 3DS title, Kid Icarus: Uprising.  Whi...

Fan fiction. These two words, hair-raising to the average individual, nonetheless apply to a variety of things that do appeal to a large audience. Between the oddity of the Frasierverse, to these confusing Minecraft books for kids, to the r...

Years back Capcom was set to release a Mega Man level creator project that pre-dated Nintendo's Mario Maker called Mega Man Universe. Given the massive history Capcom could have drawn from (think of say, Battle Network assets...

My first real web project (that wasn't a DBZ fansite I coded with rudimentary HTML) was a Mega Man hub I started with a good friend of mine as kids. I provided most of the content (guides, news) with some coding support and he did the ...

Unfortunately, the customer isn't always right when it comes to video games. Projects get cancelled, games only see a release in certain regions, and obviously brilliant ideas never come to fruition. Luckily for the rest of us, some fa...

One of the joys of games such as Sega's Sonic Mania landing on PC is the sneaky allowance for fun, community-based mods to appear. This amusing endeavor, "Knuckles Mania", by EX Falchion, brings one of the blue blur's supah-edgy friends to ...

Zombies Ate My Neighbors (or "Zombies" as it was retitled here) is one of my top five SNES games. Despite a few odd flaws, I loved it then and now. I get a kick out of its theme, great soundtrack, fun sprites and frantic co-op gameplay. Pub...

Tomb Raider has been around for just over 20 years and despite all our great memories of the original trilogy, they haven't exactly held up visually. However, a small group of independent developers has taken on the task of remastering a cl...

Mega Man games never stop. Capcom might, outside of collections and anniversary editions, but fans won't. Earlier this year another fairly big project came to the surface called Mega Man ZX Prequel, a Chinese-developed fan game that took pl...

The saga of Nintendo versus various fan games has been a hot topic for a lot of people. While Nintendo may hold all the legal rights to own and distribute their IPs, what is the harm in a free fan game floating around? If anything, it build...

Mario Maker was an amazing game, in fact, it's the only reason my Wii U is still hooked up at my desk. If you're like me you've spent a lot of time thinking about what other franchises deserve this sort of level creator fare.  At ...

It isn't often here at Destructoid that we don't review a game that has been released for almost four years across seven platforms, but Oceanhorn is one of those cases. This Zelda-like started out as an iOS game way back in the age of Obama...

Fan games are always just a cease and desist away from being dashed into oblivion. We see it all the time. Companies have a legal interest in protecting their properties, and unilaterally shutting down fan games is often the only plausible ...

The Microsoft Hololens might be the so-called leader in mixed reality, but at $3000 per unit and zero must-have apps we've almost forgotten that it exists altogether. Recently, a genius developer (who Starbucks baristas know by fifty d...
