I’ve logged an unholy number of hours into NetEase’s hero-based shooter, Marvel Rivals, and to its credit, this time sink has largely been fueled by the strength of the gameplay. I’ve bought a couple of skins and unlocked a few things here and there, but for the most part, cosmetics for the characters I play — and by extension, the battle passes that have been available so far — have...

Sometimes a game can transport you back to an exact moment in time. When I think back to Islanders, I blink back to January 2020. It was a cold New York winter, and I was bundled up in my apartment for a particularly bitter weekend. I was feeling a bit of cabin fever, but I didn’t dare brave the frost. I needed a warm escape, and I found it in...

We live in some strange times, that's for sure. I can't recall the last time that it was like this, even if it ever was, but in the Prime Day sales, all bar one of the current generation of graphics cards can be found at under their MSRP. Across the pond, our US chums have it almost entirely the other way around.👉Shop all the Prime Day deals on Amazon👈While not...
It might not surprise you to discover that there's been precious little new Silksong information, other than some further SteamDB tweaks. It certainly won't surprise you, at this point, to learn that the game's community of rabid, irony-infested fans—and I mean that as a compliment—are not taking it well.Last week, the game's subreddit sacrificed three members to seal them away in a dream—members who had, until they were skongrificed (is...

The Edge of Eternities expansion is based on space opera, which I am told means it's like normal science-fiction, except that it ain't over till the fat space monster eats a planet.OK, what it really means is we should expect something between Buck Rogers and Star Wars, with varied alien species, faster-than-light travel at the press of a button, space whales, and entire worlds that each have a single biome....
Technological advances in the health industry are some of my favourites for how far out into science fiction they often seem. It's where we see cool developments on incredulous things like BCIs with some now even able to translate thoughts almost directly to speech, shattering the locked-in language barrier. Robots are another part of the tech world that have been helping out with healthcare, and they've also just had a...
