Yoko Taro is an international treasure. The Japanese director is best known as “that guy who wears a massive moon helmet”, but he’s a genuine auteur - a rare one who hasn’t vanished inside of his own butthole. In fact, he hates publicity - hence the moon head. He isn’t in video games for fame. Unfortunately for him, he’s got it. He should probably stop being so likable. Remember when Nier Automata launched and Square Enix UK did a video shoot with him to promote a range of game merch?...

Since its launch nine years ago, The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim has been ported to the vast majority of contemporary game consoles. However, despite Bethesda’s apparent affinity for making Skyrim playable on as many different machines as possible, I don’t think anybody could have guessed that it would eventually arrive on pregnancy tests. If you were one of a select few who did anticipate Skyrim’s strange compatibility with this type of port, though, you’re in luck....

Most video game protagonists, at least in mainstream games, range from teenagers to young adults. That is a big loss, as seeing the world through the eyes of a child offers a lot of fun storytelling opportunities. Some games have caught onto that fact though.

There was no shortage of expectations placed on publisher Ubisoft when they took center stage at E3 2014, but they didn’t disappoint. The announcement of Assassin’s Creed Unity was going to elate fans no matter what, but the company’s decision to showcase the addition of 4-play cooperative play stunned and surprised even the casual viewer. Next-gen has made story-driven co-op possible, and the publisher is now offering some insight into why it hasn’t happened sooner....

Unfortunately, Microsoft wasn’t able to meet the industries high-expectations, particularly when the Inside Xbox event marketing promised it would be a first real look at next-generation gameplay, followed by hype inducing quotes such us, “Tomorrow changes the game....

Chris Pine‘s return as Diana’s long-lost love was much publicized in the lead up to the DCEU’s film release on Christmas 2020… mostly, because it is quite difficult to hide an entire Hollywood Chris while filming....

A brief interaction between Sledgehammer Games’ Michael Gondrey and a fan elaborates on what Activision meant by ‘back to its roots’ when talking about Call of Duty 2017. This week, Activision seemingly rejuvenated interest in the Call of Duty franchise by announcing that the next entry in the series “would go back to its roots.” Of course, since the official unveiling for Call of Duty 2017 is still a ways off, Activision didn’t want to say too much beyond that, just like it did when talking about Destiny....
