There goes my Hotline Miami Bronze We ran a news storylast monthabout renewed efforts to make video games part of the programme for the Olympic Games in the future. According to the International Olympic Committee, most games would be an ill-fit. “We want to promote non-discrimination, non-violence, and peace among people,” said IOC President Thomas Bach, speaking to the South Morning China Post. “This doesn’t match with video games, which are about violence, explosions, and killing....

Hostile takeover PAX started off on the right foot this year. Traditionally a show where we focus on cool-seeming indie games, the Devolver-publishedHigh Hellis the epitome of that weirdness we try to find. “YEAH, KICK THE COKE!” is something a developer shouted at me. I honestly think it helped me break my hangover just a little bit. High Hellis the newly-announced follow-up from theHeavy Bulletscreator and music man Adam “Doseone” Drucker....

Didn’t back the Kickstarter? No worries Robot Loves Kitty is now selling “nearly beta” builds of its wonderful-looking beat-’em-upLegend of Dungeonvia the Humble Store. For $10, an entirely reasonable price from what I’ve played, you will get this pre-release version across Windows, Mac, and Linux; pay an additional $5, and they’ll throw in the soundtrack, too. Since we last checked in, the game’sdynamic music systemhas been implemented with upwards of 240 responsive tracks in total....

What? [Mash Tacticsairs Monday through Friday at 4p.m. Pacific onDtoid.TV. Watch Rick ‘King Foom’ Olson play a variety of games, each day with its own theme. With a heavy focus on community and viewer interaction, you can be as much a part of the show as anything else.] I’ll be honest and say, I haven’t a damn clue about what I’m getting myself into withThe Stanley Parable HD. I’ve been avoiding any media for the game beyond the glowing reviews it’s been getting....

During today’s Pokemon Presents presentation, we sawMewtwo announced as an upcoming Tera Raid encounterinPokemon Scarlet & Violet. However, another legendary Pokemon has made its appearance, and this one’s much easier to get. Specifically, virtually anyone who owns eitherPokemon ScarletorPokemon Violetcan claim Mew as a mystery gift right now. Until Monday, September 18, trainers can use the codeGETY0URMEWin the Mystery Gift menu to instantly grab Mew.That’s a zero and not an O in “Y0UR,”since you can’t input O, I, or Z in codes....

Kept you waiting huh While there’s nothing inherently wrong with console games, I get a certain amount of joy from PC mods that aren’t possible on other platforms. One such mod is a new fan-created change toMetal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes, that places Hideo Kojima in the starring role. Kojima already existed in-game in every version by way of an extra mission, so the process was simple enough, and the character model is pretty faithful....

Also, Pillars of Eternity Friday the 13th, one of the biggest Switch games being released this week,iscoming out on the 13th, butnoton a Friday. I just wanted to make sure you knew that going on.

No sense in dragon it out Megapixel Studios’ 2020 remake of classic Sega Saturn title Panzer Dragoon is now finally available on PS4, following its earlier releases on Nintendo Switch, PC, and Stadia. It can be purchased from the PlayStation Network right now, priced at around $25. The re-imagined edition of the 1995 rail shooter features all of the fantasy sky-fighting action of the original release, given a fresh new look and an overhauled control system, suitable for modern gaming audiences....

Released in arcades on March 1 here in Japan,Persona 4: Arenais a game I’m not sure anyone could have ever anticipated. Marrying the popular JRPG franchise with Arc System Works’ fighting game prowess, you’d be forgiven for thinking that this is nothing more than a money grab. One could argue that Atlus has been pushingPersona 4a little bit too hard lately, what with the current anime series,Persona 4: The Golden, due for PlayStation Vita release in Japan this Summer and even a stage show in the works....

Because there weren’t enough clown faces in one place already Another creepy clown visage is now available in the PlayStation 3 version ofPayday 2, and one fans of Sony should be well familiar with. Sweet Tooth, the lovably psychotic burning clownthingfrom theTwisted Metalseries, gets a nod in free DLC released today which offers his face as another horrifying mask option for your character. Sweet Tooth still gives me the willies. It’s one thing to have a horrible clown, but when you have muscular (one might say, “ripped”) clown, that’s a whole other level of childhood insecurity being represented....

Updated: June 02, 2025 We looked for new codes! The only time inRampant Rebornwhen you get to take a breath is in the Lobby. As soon as you’re in one of the arenas, all the bets are off, and you must do all in your power to blast all your enemies into pieces and remain standing. The game has plenty of powerful Classes that require unlocking before you can choose them for your battles....

System requirements revealed The PC version ofResident Evil 6won’t be launching in North America and Europe until June 09, 2025, Capcom announced today. The release will happen on Steam with the kinds of features one would expect (cloud saving, for instance), and European players will also have the opportunity to grab the divisive “dramatic horror” game on disc. Either way, everything added by way offree title updatesforResident Evil 6on consoles will make the cut for PC....

The cavalry Overwatchis nearly here, and as is the case with any Blizzard game, a suite of hardware is coming along with it. While SteelSeries had the honors last time around withHeroes of the Storm, Razer is up with several new additions to their lineup. Due to numerous requests from readers, I pinged Razer to see what the newest set on the block is all about. Overwatch Razer BlackWidow Chroma keyboard($180 MSRP) I have a weird relationship with mechanical keyboards....
