There are few things in gaming that are absolutely sacred, but one of those things is modding. It is an inalienable right, as Bethesda found when they started considering paid modding. Capcom, apparently, didn’t hear this message. Taro Yahagi, a programmer for Capcom, said mods “aren’t that different from cheating” in terms of what they do to the game internally. Which shouldn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, but of course cheats are something Capcom sell now. Long gone…

Born of Bread, the upcoming indie “Paper Mario” inspired game, will be released this December. Check out the release date trailer below! Born of Bread will release on December 5th, 2023. There is a demo available on the Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series. I checked out the demo on the Xbox Series and wrote about here. I also played the one on the Switch and liked it even more than the one Xbox Series! There have been many games that…

Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 is out today! Check out the game’s launch trailer below. Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 is out today for the Nintendo Switch, PS4/PS5, Xbox Series, and PC. As a fan of Metal Gear Solid, all I have to say to you is…SNAAAAAAKE! Okay, maybe a little bit more. I’m pretty excited about this Master Collection. I love these games. Yes, I plan to get the Nintendo Switch version, which some people…

A new Xbox Partner Preview has been announced for Wednesday. We have some details below. An Xbox Partner Preview has been announced for Wednesday, October 25 at 12:00pm central. It will feature third party and indie games. There will be no news about the Activision-Xbox deal. What will be shown during this preview exactly? Other than indie/third party news, we’re not really sure. Personally, I’d love to see something from Square Enix. Hey, let me dream! Update: Xbox just tweeted…

I haven’t spoken much about the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection, despite the fact that it’s MGS and I’m a huge fan. I’ve been cautiously awaiting impressions to know what to make of it. I don’t want another GTA set. On the face of it, it’s an amazing set. MGS is available on Xbox for the first time, and with trophies and achievements. It includes Integral, VR Missions and multiple languages to choose from. For the first time, western fans…

Since the Activision merger was announced in January last year, it’s been all we’ve talked about. No gaming news has quite lived up to this giant behemoth, edging ever more closely to the finish line. And it probably never will again. But it is indeed now done. What impact is it going to have on the industry? Will Microsoft keep buying? And where does this leave PlayStation? Suffice it to say this deal is going to feel like a lot…

Hogwarts Legacy has been out for awhile now but I just got the chance to play it for the first time late last week. So what do I think of the game? Here are my impressions so far of Hogwarts Legacy for the Xbox Series S. Yes, I’m a Harry Potter fan. I read the books as an Adult and liked them. I saw all the movies. I even liked the first Fantastic Beasts movie (though not the other two).…

It’s a headline that I didn’t think would take me the best part of two years to write… but the Microsoft Activision merger looks likely to close this week. Honestly, I’ve spent so long writing about this thing. It’s almost like the actual impact of it no longer clicks. It’s all been about the detail and the largeness, but not the actual long-term impact. So, for instance, within the week Crash and Spyro will be Xbox mascots along with Banjo…

You hear that, gamers? Capcom boss Haruhiro Tsujimoto reckons you’re paying too little for your video games – and maybe he’s kind of right. It’s hard to argue his point too much. In the middle of a cost-of-living crisis we’ve seen increasing prices, increasingly aggressive monetisation, experimentation with AI and NFTs and a whole host of other ways to nickel and dime people who, by and large, just want to play a cool game. But we have to admit that…
