Sing along! You know the words! DuckTaleswas always one of those games that I never thought in a million years would get a re-release, much less a remake with hand-drawn art and fully voiced dialog performed by the original cartoon’s voice actors. Somehow, both Capcom and Disney decided to revive the classic NES platformer over 20 years later and hand development duties over to WayForward, the modern-day Capcom equivalent when it comes to solid licensed software....

Max’s thoughts on a 45-minute presentation from E3 2014 Don’t send a sheep back to Mother Base with the Fulton recovery system during a sandstorm — that’s my main takeaway from thisMetal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Painimpressions video.

For now, I can’t stopwatching that trailer....

Telltale Games announced today that they are bringing theWallace & Gromitseries of games to the iPad. It seems as though they will be released episodically, just as they were for PC and Xbox Live Arcade, withThe Last Resortto be the first to hit.

I did find it to be a better time than the first,Fright of the Bumblebees, but there are established characters already by that point....

Focus on the blessings instead Training and stat-building are a big part ofLoop8: Summer of Gods. Unlike traditional RPGs, you don’t increase your strength or agility through battling and leveling up. Instead, all around the town of Ashihara, there are training spots where Nini can increase his stats. When you train in these locations, time will pass quickly. And while your training stats don’t carry over from loop to loop, it is easy to get all those stats back by training every loop....
