People like to buy things. With 2 million copies sold and $20 million made, it’s safe to say thatMinecraftis one of those things. I thought I was rational in thinking most people with interest in the game had already bought and played it to death on PC. Well, apparently not. Because people are f*cking crazy. Crazy aboutMinecraft! So, yes,Castle Crashersstill has the honor of selling the most copies on Xbox Live Arcade butMinecraft‘s controversial $20 asking price set it over the edge in terms of gross....

Uh, okay So we knew that Ken Griffey Jr. would grace the cover ofMLB The Show 17, but today at PSX, Sony announced that the May 15, 2025 bound baseball game would get a “retro mode.” It’s just as obvious as it sounds, essentially low-fi-ing (is that a verb?) the experience into a grainier version. I mean, it’s not as retro asBad News Baseball, but it’s something!The Show 17is out on June 17, 2025, which is less than a week before the start of the MLB season on April 2....

TowerFall is also $5 Oh hey massiveCelestesale: I didn’t see you there. AlthoughCeleste, which took the indie world and mainstream gaming scene by storm in 2018, has frequently been on sale; I know a lot of undecided folks might appreciate the heads-up. All you need to do ishead over to the eShopto pick it up for five bucks (down from $20); the classic deeply-discounted price thatCelestegoes for digitally. It’s only fitting that you should buy it on Switch, given that it’s the most popular platform for it....

Because therecent teaserfor theBurnout ParadiseCops and Robbers Pack wasn’t nearly enough footage to satisfy theBurnoutaficionados in the audience, we have got a second helping of video content for the premium DLC. On episode 30 of Criterion Games’ Crash TV series, a good portion of the newly-skinned police cars are shown off in all their glory. Spanning across multiple nationalities to several different decades, the gang at Criterion has pretty much got you covered when it comes to varied police cruiser styles....

Things get frantic at Niantic Recent years have seen gaming studios face increasing scrutiny for how they foster their workplace environments. The latest studio to find itself under the microscope is Niantic which is responsible for the mobile AR game and runaway hit, Pokemon Go. A lawsuit has been filed against Niantic by a former employee, and it claims that the studio has been systematically underpaying and undervaluing female employees, turning the workplace into a “Boys Club”....

No matter what, the shotgun is still your best option Have you ever asked yourself, “What if someone took the concept of fighting flat 2D enemies fromEat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazardand put it into a much better game?” I know I have, and thankfully the modder Ghor has answered my question with their latest creation,gmDoom. In this mod, players will have the ability to go through the entirety ofHalf-Life 2with the full space marine arsenal of the iconic Doomguy....

Sony Online Entertainment brought their upcoming MMOFPSPlanetSide 2to gamescom this year, and with it a brand-new gameplay trailer calledPOWER. From what I could tell, the trailer’s name has absolutely nothing to do with the actual content of said trailer. Which, by the way, shows off the games trulymassivescale andHalomeetsBattlefieldgameplay in an MMO setting.

I’m still waiting for a really goodDoctor Whogame. The BBC-produced episodic adventure game released last year does not qualify, as far as I’m concerned, but there’s hope forThe Eternity Clock.Due out next month, we can see from the trailer here that it’s a more action-focused platform game with co-op play as the second player controls the Doctor’s charming companion, River Song. The Eternity Clockis set to release on PS3 and Vita in March, while the PC version will follow along shortly thereafter....

I’ve been playing a bit of Nioh 1 recently Nioh 2will soon be upon us (March 13) and once again it’s going to be a PS4 exclusive. How can I say for sure that Koei Tecmo is sticking to that release date?Well the game has gone gold(“master approval”) and is ready for a full release, so there’s presumably no turning back now. This news comes off of the heels of the originalselling three million copiesduring its third anniversary....

What a champion I really took to Noctis over the course ofFinal Fantasy XV, mostly because of his relationship with his crew. The anime prequels did a sufficient job of linking me up emotionally with the party of bros, and although he isn’t the bestFinal Fantasyprotagonist (there’s so many to choose from even if you only countVI), I’m excited to see him in more works. Dissidia NTwas just the start, as he’s making his way intoTekken 7officially on March 20....
