Studio bigs up sequel's plot
The words 'Destiny' and 'story' have never gone together too well, have they?

Video Why Aren't You Playing Don't Die Mr Robot?
There's no excuse
Don’t Die Mr Robot is one of those games that invites YouTube dislikes but shouldn’t be overlooked.

He's been Spidey for eight years
There's been some speculation over Insomniac's Spider-Man regarding the age of Peter Parker.

Check a look
Hot on the heels of Bethesda's E3 conference came Devolver Digital's segment on Twitch, where it promised a "ridiculous" show with "no game reveals". In all fairness, it delivered exactly that.

News Tekken 7's Opening Movie Is One of the Best in the Series
Doesn't beat Tekken 5's, though
Bandai Namco has revealed Tekken 7's opening movie, and we reckon it's really good.

Video How the Feck Do You Play Farpoint with a DualShock 4?
Not a lot changes, actually
One of Farpoint’s biggest selling points is, of course, the PlayStation VR Aim Controller.
