I’m still waiting on that Dreamcast version, yo WithPier Solar HD, what’s old is new and what’s new is old again. Unfortunately, we’ve got to wait quite a bit longer before we can actually give it a try now. The Sega Genesis-styled RPG care ofWatermelonhas been delayed to June. Considering how gorgeous preliminary screens have been,Pier Solar HDlooks like an alluring throwback to a forgotten age, and while it’s easy to slap retro-fabulous graphics over a mediocre frame (I’m looking at you,Black Sigil: Blade of the Exiled)Pier Solarlooks like an honest-to-goodness adventure that should tickle every nostalgic bone in your body....

You can never have too muchRatchet & Clank. The lively Lombax and rascally robot are lacing up their hover boots for yet another outing, this time in the form of a second downloadable PlayStation Network title,Ratchet & Clank: Full Frontal Assault. Yes, we are witness to the triumphant return of the double entendre game title, following its piratical PSN predecessor,A Quest for Booty.

Updated: August 01, 2025 Checked for codes! Move aside, Haaland. A new star is in town. Neuer and Casillas combined couldn’t stop my mighty shots. And all it took to become a global superstar with a golden FIFA card was clicking the mouse furiously. That’sPro Soccer Simulatorin a nutshell. Even the greatest soccer legends need a break sometimes. I admit I took a shortcut to unlock a new world by redeemingPro Soccer Simulatorcodes....

Take that as you will I’m a big fan of old-school shooters. I cut my teeth on them in my youth and I still get a kick out of how ultra fast paced and skill based those older games were. I can return to classics likeUnreal TournamentandQuake III Arenawithout batting an eye. The design of both of those games is practically ingrained in my brain; I don’t think I could forget their maps regardless of how far removed I become from them....

No domestic release date still You know what they say about cash-ins, right? If people buy them, they’ll keep cashing in? Ok nobody says that, I just made it up.

A number of big issues have been fixed for all the systems, including the hilarious-but-annoying problem of having the corpses of your friends spawn during a wedding ceremony — that one got me this weekend! Those playing the PS3 version will find their stuttering lag has been cut back, while the 360 version no longer suffers from horrible texture pop-in once installed....

#synergy So far, I’ve missed every single opportunity to trySplatoon. Folks who made an effort to participate in the time-restrictedGlobal Test Firedemo have had encouraging things to say about the game, which has me simultaneously feeling happy and jealous. May 29 isn’t too far off, at least. If you’re committed to buying the game at launch and you don’t, like, have a grudge against Target, heads up: the retailer is including a Wii U- andSplatoon-branded squirt gun with purchases of the title while supplies last....

This is a developer that makes incredible horror games, but I wasn’t sure how the rich lore of this asymmetrical horror title could be translated inThe Casting of Frank Stone. We recently had the opportunity to play the demo for Supermassive Games’ upcoming title, and I’m happy to say that it nailed the brief on every mark....

I saw that in theaters! SoKingsglaive, eh? With all of the hype thatFinal Fantasy XVhas generated in the past month or so I’m trying not get swept up in it, but it’s tough. These new screens of the film, compliments of4Gamer,are looking real good, and the talent involved (Sean Bean, Aaron Paul, Lena Headey) is enticing. Gematsu also has a great breakdown of each character’s bio and motivationsif you’re interested....
