Half-Life 2: Episode One mod Up until now, I wasn’t aware of Adam Foster’s highly-regardedHalf Life 2modMINERVAin any real sense. The name sounds familiar, so I’m sure I had at one point or another come across it within the last few years, but I never bothered to go through with installation for whatever reason. Now thatthe game is on Steam— and people still seem thrilled by the mod — the excuses are dwindling....

Instead, other talented studios and fans picked up the torch, and refused to let this once famous mascot die. Jasco, with theirMega Man-centric adaption of Level 99 Games’Pixel Tactics, is one of those entities. Mega Man Pixel TacticsPublisher:Jasco GamesReleased: August 10, 2017MSRP: $19....

No phantom menaces From Software has designed its new game,Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, to be entirely offline. It’s a single-player experience through and through. In a hands-off E3 demo with From Software and Activision, From Software confirmed thatSekirowas designed from the beginning to only have a single-player aspect. There is no online component.

Sega has nailed down a release date: February 12 in North America and Feb. 8 in Europe. Multi-cart and single-cart multiplayer support for up to eight people is in, as are StreetPass challenges....

Also a small history of Christian Whitehead It’s intriguing to see how two passionate fan project developers came together to formSonic Mania, and in essence, create a Sonic game better than Sega would have done. That’s just how Headcannon and PagodaWest Games did it, as this video from Did You Know Gaming explains, and they even got a Sonic remixer to handle the music and an outside artist to work on the intro....
