News Another Look at Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth Is Coming Our Way This Week
Thanks to Xbox, mind
It's becoming increasingly easy to forget that there's a different Like a Dragon game coming out just a few weeks, because SEGA just won't shut up about the next mainline entry, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Indeed, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name drops on the 9th November, but the marketing push for...
News Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth's Mature Age Rating Description Is Hilarious
Who's arseking?
As you'd probably expect of the series at this point, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth will be rated 'Mature' in North America. The ESRB's summary of the upcoming RPG paints a familiar picture, with mention of graphic violence and sexually suggestive content. But we couldn't help but chuckle at the description as a whole, and thought...

Lords of the Fallen, the fairly well-reviewed Souls-like that launched just over a week ago on PS5 and other platforms, has sold more than 1 million copies.

Review Ghostrunner 2 (PS5) - Slash-Happy PS5 Sequel Is a Bit Choppy
A Ghostbummer?
Ghostrunner 2 is a perplexing experience. Its predecessor, which was released at the tail end of 2020, provided us with a fast-paced, stylish, cyber-ninja-themed action platformer that managed to rival other games attempting a similar thing. However, with the sequel, developer One More Level has designed an entry that seemingly...

News UK Sales Charts: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Comes Out Swinging for Number One Debut
Thwip
Despite solid competition from another major new release, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has made a number one debut on the UK's physical games chart. It trumped Nintendo's Super Mario Bros. Wonder, "comfortably" selling the most boxed copies in the country. We imagine both games will remain in the top 10 for a while. We've yet to see digital sales...

News Skull Island: Rise of Kong Given Just a Single Year of Development
Part of a vicious cycle
Skull Island: Rise of Kong has been doing the rounds for all the wrong reasons, with some calling it the worst game of 2023, thanks to its shallow production values and wonky gameplay. This, inevitably, led to the title being roundly dunked on by the internet writ large and dubbed a "Gollum-like" as a result. Sadly, like

News Marvel's Spider-Man 2 PS5 Director: This Game Is Worth the Money
Quality trumps quantity
In an age of never-ending live services and padded open world games, Marvel’s Spider-Man 2’s relatively tight 20-or-so hour story has been criticised by a handful of fans for not offering enough value for money. While the wealth of side content can practically double that playtime, it’s still a release on the shorter...
