Within days of me giving myself hope for a Metal Gear future, some more evidence has popped up that may or may not add to that foolish optimism. The developer rumoured to be working on a Metal Gear Solid 3 remake has teased something… right before deleting it again. The Metal Gear Solid 3 remake has been rumoured for several years, and is bizarrely often mentioned along a new set of remasters for 1, 2 and 3 as well. Virtuos…

In the annals of LittleBigPlanet, Sackboy: A Big Adventure is a sad footnote. Not because of the quality of the game, I hasten to add. But because it seems so often people forget it exists. Even Sony themselves, as the PC release has been a very quiet affair. A PS5 launch title, aimed primarily at families, it shouldn’t be a big surprise that it isn’t spoken about in the same breath as Horizon or God of War. But hopefully a…

If there has been one sign that the console wars have grown up, it’s this. We no longer argue about lists of games. Instead, we argue over corporate decisions. Nowhere has that been more obvious than in the conversation about Game Pass’s profitability. Game Pass wasn’t sustainable. Then it wasn’t good for the industry. Then it was both, but it wasn’t profitable. Now, thanks to a new interview with Xbox’s Phil Spencer, we know that it is profitable. Which is…

Everybody’s favourite bird/robot combination has returned to Overwatch – but Bastion is not as you remember him. The famously tough little robot can no longer heal, and his high damage gun is now a temporary move. In some ways this feels like a nerf – especially when you’re surrounding by Tracers and Sombras – but in others it opens him up as a very different charcacter. If the unfortunately missing Assault was still in the mix – and I hope…

Resident Evil Re:Verse still exists and, well, that’s news to me. The multiplayer game, which has been delayed twice, will be free to owners of Village from October 28th. The multiplayer mode for Village was met with skepticism when it was announced nearly two years ago. That was only increased when it was delayed from May 7 – alongside Village – to Summer, and then again to a vague 2022. Well, surprise surprise, it’s still coming in 2022. In fact,…

Game Pass has always been great, but it’s got to the point where it’s now also impossible to keep up with. This is a fantastic problem to have. For an average adult with broad tastes, Game Pass has now tipped the scales from very cool to overwhelming. And with a mountain of first-party content expected in the first half of next year, that’s a problem that’s going to remain with us for months to come. This thought occurred to me…

I’ve been known to get a bit grumpy about the neverending talk about Silent Hill and its inevitable return. Well buckle in, folks, because now it’s been officially announced. I’ll do a quick rundown of the announcements shortly. But first, let’s look back at all the happy months and years insiders have been promising this moment will come. We couldn’t have got here without them. And don’t forget to take a moment’s silence for the inevitable disappointment after this series…

Persona 5 Royal is out today for the Nintendo Switch, Xbox, Gamepass, and Windows! Check out the newest trailer for the game below. Can you believe that Persona 5 Royal is on the Nintendo Switch now?! We haven’t played it, but we’ve heard that the Switch port is really good. If you don’t have a Switch, then you should check it out on Xbox or Gamepass or Windows or Playstation. The game is available EVERYWHERE now. Are you looking forward…

VR was going to be the next big thing, but it has never happened. Cost became prohibitive, “must-have” software is limited. And with the announcement of the Meta Quest Pro, it seems the best is becoming increasingly out of reach. This is not good. This tech isn’t cheap, and the Quest Pro is not aimed at your average gamer. But it’s not a good look for an area of the industry that has been on the edge of greatness for…
