Hands On Who Has a Hidden Agenda in Until Dawn Dev's Crime Thriller?
Whodunnit?
The next game from Until Dawn developer Supermassive Games is a lot like Until Dawn at first blush: it has unnervingly lifelike virtual characters, branching plot paths, and more serial killers than an entire season of Midsummer Murders. The twist is that Hidden Agenda’s being sold on the strength of being a local multiplayer party game...

Knowledge is everything in this game
The obligatory trivia game in Sony’s burgeoning PlayLink line is exactly what you’d expect it to be: a jovial round of multiple choice with silly photo opportunities and a host that likes the sound of his own voice. With an eccentric, borderline claymation artstyle, it certainly looks the part – although...

TGS 2017 Yakuza: Kiwami 2 Nabs Another Questionable Side Activity
Say cheese
The Yakuza series is no stranger to, er, somewhat questionable side activities. Yakuza 0, for example, introduced a minigame in which you watch scantily clad women wrestle in an underground area and place bets on who you think will come out on top. We're not sure whether stuff like this goes down well with everyone, but the bottom line is...

Chris Redfield’s back – and so are his burly biceps. Okay, so actually the legendary BSAA agent may not look quite as ripped in Resident Evil 7’s universe, but he’s still able to Shoryuken the Moulded like they’re not even there.

A bad crop
When we received the code for Maize, a comedic first-person adventure game about sentient corn, we were obviously intrigued. How could we not be? The key art features a stalk of corn listening to a boom box, and in an industry that can at times feel bereft of fresh ideas, this left-field offering from Finish Line Games excited us. Not...
