The Nintendo Switch 2 Experience had us thirsty for Donkey Kong and also water
There was larger emphasis on rules and regulations outside the Switch 2 Experience venue than inside. As I walked into the Television City parking lot, I had to show my ID twice and the QR code Nintendo sent me at least seven times in the weeks after I got picked to attend the event just to get to the front…

No way! Farming Simulator 16-bit Edition is getting a legit Genesis port
Do you know Farming Simulator? The surprisingly popular series about running a modern farm with massive farming equipment? Not the Stardew Valley/Harvest Moon brand of farming; the real industrialized sort. The series that has dedicated peripherals to use with steering wheel controllers so you can work your harvester or whatever? The one that has been going strong since 2008? Yeah,…

Preview – Hollywood Animal
Not for the faint of heart, Hollywood Animal isn't merely about making movies. It's also about the seedy underpants of the humans who make up the industry. People are awful is the lesson to be learned here.

It has caused immeasurable harm as it single-mindedly puts profit above everything else.

Microsoft’s Copilot Gaming Experience is haunted and pointless
Tech companies are really pushing generative AI for some reason. The technology has a lot of practical uses, but companies would rather wave their dicks around to show it off.

Preview – Insectile
Are you hungry for some cute bugs? Insectile serves up a fusion dish of creature collector and puzzle game. But does it get the flavour right? I'm so hungry right now.

Review – Mafia: Definitive Edition
I should have probably been more enthusiastic about Mafia: Definitive Edition. Hold on, that’s not as revealing as you may think. I’m just saying, a full remake of one of my favourite games from my adolescent days probably should have been more of a priority for me. I bought it around release, but never pushed far into it. Probably because…

Preview – NetEscape
If I’m recalling correctly, I got access to the internet around 1994, which was fairly early in terms of the World Wide Web. I was the first of my friends to be connected, but few seven-year-olds would really even be able to grasp what the internet was. Of course, at the time, it was largely unrecognizable to what we see…

Review – Betrayal at Club Low
It's the fourth game in the Cosmo D, and with Betrayal at Club Low, the interactivity has caught up with the aesthetic. Dice should be appreciative, because they have never had it so good.

Cataclismo hits 1.0 today, and it’s worth checking out
Ending a respectable run in Early Access, Cataclismo has reached its full release. Unfortunately, I need more time to solidify my opinion, but from what I've played, it's some good wall-building action.
