Hard West 2 review

Most comic strips find that three is enough, and why wouldn’t it be enough? Setup, development, punchline. The fourth panel in Peanuts is where things get weird and sad. A moment after the joke. A human moment, awkward and brilliant and often deeply memorable. It’s not really a reduction in complexity, actually, but a clever repositioning of complexity. It wasn’t how to move and shoot, it was what you might do through moving and shooting....

Rare talks captaincy, personalisation, and waterfalls ahead of Sea of Thieves' big new update

My boat, my rules. But then, earlier this year, it returned. Now, the wait is finally over, with Sea of Thieves' near-five-years-in-the-making captaincy update launching later today. “That’s something a lot of us want to do,” says Chapman. So it’s on the roadmap. “So I see your ship in the world,” he elaborates. And that’s really the magic of how we elevate the experience." And it’s a system Rare plans to evolve overtime....

State of the Game: Red Dead Online

Little Houser on the prairie. Have you ever met a cheater in Red Dead Online? I have - a few times, in fact. Out of nowhere, I was transformed into a flying saucer. It turns out that driving a wagon as a spaceship is quite difficult. I had some bandits to deal with. What followed was the most ridiculous shootout the Wild West has ever seen. But is that experience one worth having?...

Activision Blizzard reportedly cancels unannounced World of Warcraft MMO for mobile

Activision Blizzard and Chinese publisher NetEase have reportedly cancelled an unannounced World of Warcraft MMO following a disagreement between the two parties. Asreported by Bloomberg, the unannounced project - internally known as Neptune and in development for three years - wasn’t a direct adaptation of the existing WoW MMO, but rather an MMORPG spin-off set in the same universe but during a different time period. However, despite the project’s already lengthy development, NetEase is now said to have disbanded its creative team - consisting of more than 100 developers - after a disagreement with Activision Blizzard “over financial terms” resulted in both parties pulling the plug....

Bright Memory: Infinite

Bright Memory: Infinite is a fast-paced first-person shooter which combines snappy gunplay with sword driven melee combat. Where it surprises the most, perhaps, is in its development history. Environments also receive additional detail but the reflections are perhaps the most significant difference. The more significant difference appears when using the game’s high frame-rate mode. It is sharper than your typical Unreal-based Switch game, however, I will say that much. Lights are culled from the scene, textures are lower resolution and everything appears simplified....

Hindsight review, elbowy, frustrating examination of memory

It is impossible to get your head around memory. It’s intangible, yet all-powerful. It can be like living with a ghost, but the ghost is Arnold Schwarzenegger. An open-world affair, but an endlessly glitchy one. Landmarks disappear and shift. And wherever you go, you’re always at the centre of the map. I do not want to play this game. Hindsight review But what about a game exploring someone else’s memories?...
