Review by Matt S. & Matt R. Babylon’s Fall is a game that has been designed to be exclusively a “live service” multiplayer game. And so, to do something different with this review, Matt R (of Shindig and regular on DDNet fame) and I buddied up to cruise through a…
Read MoreReview by Matt R. What is the point of Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection? I’m honestly not sure. The store listing for it runs through all the usual buzzwords: “remastered in stunning detail”, “improved visuals and frame rate”, “DualSense wireless controller features”—none of which make any practical difference to two…

The concept of a “Director’s Cut” comes from cinema, and it represents the uncompressed creative vision of the director.

Read MoreOpinion by Matt S. Rumour has it that Final Fantasy XVI will be unveiled this week, at the big Sony stream (and that would be the game to finally get me on board with the next generation). I don’t generally put much stock in rumours, since it’s bad journalism to…

Read MoreNews by Lindsay M. After very reasonably being delayed for a week, it’s time for PlayStation’s The Future of Gaming presentation.
