Over the course of 2013 and 2014, four hour-long Ghost in the Shell: Arise episodes were released in theaters. This past anime season, these were broken up into eight episodes—along with an extra two new episodes that continue the story—in Ghost in the Shell: Arise: Alternative Architecture. The result is a mess. Alternative Architecture is…

Konami just unveiled a new music game for arcades called Museca. Isn’t that exciting? Sure it is! But, as some folks claim, it might look familiar. Look at all the people lined up in shit Tokyo weather to play the game at today’s location test. [Photo:9c5s] Famitsu was also on hand to check out the…
The normal levels in the Rhythm Heaven series are good, but it’s the Remix Stages that make the games great. The Rhythm Heaven games are essentially musical mini-game collections. But unlike most music games, you aren’t playing music per se. Rather you are pushing buttons in time with the beat based on the aural cues…

From what I’ve seen and played of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, an upcoming historical RPG, it looks cool! This E3 trailer, showing stuff like combat and horse-riding, only has me more psyched.
The reveal of big games is sometimes accompanied by the release of some of their concept art, and this E3 has proven to be no different. Inside you’ll find concept and promotional images for games like Horizon: Zero Dawn, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, Dishonored 2 and Fallout 4 To see the larger pics in all…
Moments before stealing the show at Sony’s press conference by announcing the Final Fantasy VII remake that may make it in time for the PS5, Square Enix whipped out World of Final Fantasy, a chibi-sprite game that promised to be “adorably familiar” and looked like something made for kids. On Monday night, most of us…
And with this trailer, Y2K has become one of my most anticipated titles of 2015.

Here is Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’s entire E3 gameplay demo. It’s pretty hot. Normally in order to view this demo before, like, a week from now, you’d have to go crawling through E3’s vents and stain your sensation-less mechanical arms with the battery acid-infused blood of countless Square Enix employees. But not now, not today.…

In 2011, just a week before Christmas, Jason Isenberg was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He was 31 at the time. Staring down years of illness, treatment, stress and medical bills, Jason and his wife Cheryl needed a release. They found it in cosplay.

It is such a joy to watch one of the best Dishonored players in the world perform incredible feats of murder. In this montage, Dishonored player StealthGamerBR is basically saying ‘Screw stealth. Chaos route is way more fun.’ And after watching this, I’m inclined to agree. Damn!
The new Doom looks like a cartoonishly over-the-top romp through gore hell, land of infinite sorrow (and gore). But I don’t know. It kinda feels like something’s missing. Some players have taken to imagining what the long-in-development Doom reboot would be like if it stuck a little closer to its roots. Linkzaki sped it up…
