Despite a cloud of doom and gloom hanging over Riot’s mysterious MMO in the wake of 2XKO’s closure–including well-founded concerns from our own Harvey Randall—its co-founder seems confident in its ongoing development. At least, that’s what I’m parsing from his relative non-answer when pressed about it during a panel at PAX West over the weekend. […]
Atlus will probably remake Persona 1 and 2 one day, according to a new interview with series producer Kazuhisa Wada conducted by Rock Paper Shotgun. “For me, I think a remaster or remake is some kind of cultural preservation,” Wada said. “As a creator, it’s your duty to take the things you’ve done and make
The fidelity of Grand Theft Auto 6’s world makes random violence look considerably less silly than it did when the characters had boxy claws for hands, but Rockstar isn’t stopping players from doing what they want in Vice City and its environs.

Onimusha: Way of the Sword is the latest victim of the dreaded AAA videogame disease: Padded Runtime Via Unsatisfying Upgrade Materials.
