In Thomas Wilde’s review of the Callisto Protocol last December, he wrote that the game could have used more time in development to reach the full potential of what developer Striking Distance was going for. In the last seven months, the game has received patches fixing bugs and adding new game modes, including New Game+ and a […]
A while back, when we had celebrated the 30th anniversary of Trilobyte’s The 7th Guest, a few of you got nostalgic for the heyday of Full Motion Video (FMV) horror games. So, what better way to scratch that itch than with a selection of titles from the genre’s peak? Now obviously, there’s more to the […]
I’m of the mindset that there has never been an excellent modern video game based on the Alien franchise. Alien: Isolation was an exercise in misery, taking what should’ve been a well-crafted 4-8 hour horror experience and stretching it beyond the 20-hour mark.

Netherrealm Studios has always been one of the more fascinating fighting game developers. They’ve always taken more creative risks than their competitors, to somewhat mixed results. Mortal Kombat was a nice return to form for the series. Then Mortal Kombat X introduced a great amount of player freedom with its variation system and sped the […]
Developer DarkStone Digital has given fans of The Mortuary Assistant a summer treat with the new 1.2 patch, which is available now.

Mundfish’s weird dystopian shooter Atomic Heart will be having its first DLC content arrive later this summer. The developer announced that the “Annihilation Instinct” DLC will arrive for PC and consoles on August 2. And as before with all things Atomic Heart, we get another bizarre trailer featuring plenty of strangeness, including an appearance by […]
Stephen King‘s a pretty cool guy, if you didn’t know. Not only has the master author set up a program to allow students to use the rights to his novels for just a dollar, but Stephen King had also done the same dollar deal with Remedy Entertainment and Alan Wake. Speaking to Eurogamer, Remedy’s Sam […]
