Lower Decks isn’t a ‘traditional’ Star Trek show. That sentence makes perfect sense, right? Of course it’s not a ‘traditional’ Star Trek show. It’s a cartoon. The characters all speak really quickly like they’re in a cartoon. It’s animated, and it’s written and produced like a cartoon, because it’s a cartoon. In reality, the concept
An achievement added to Baldur’s Gate 3’s GOG release has teased the possible addition of a new permadeath mode for the D&D RPG – meaning that if your whole party dies, your save will be permanently wiped. In a game where play time counts can end up in the hundreds of hours, that’s a fairly
Some mild spoilers for Alan Wake 2 ahead. Alan Wake 2 is a game full of confident moments that reject pre-conceived notions of how certain genres should play out, something which is increasingly rarer in the AAA games space.

Daredevil: The Man Without Fear, originally meant to release in 2003 but never saw the light of day, is now playable for the first time. There are plenty of games that get announced, have all the right ingredients, but still get cancelled for one reason or another. You would think that a character like Daredevil,
Sonic and Mario’s rivalry is possibly destined to never end, as one Sega executive has said he wants the blue blur to “surpass Mario.” The battle between Mario and Sonic is a tale as old as time, going back all the way to the days when Sega still made consoles. Of course, as beloved as
