Suikoden's HD Remaster is polished to a high shine—in some places.

Steam Deck SteamOS 3.6.23 Beta "Beak Visible" is available now for people to test in the Beta and Preview channels.

Read the rune, Konami. Few RPGs, or video games, deal with war and hope in the face of tyranny like the Suikoden series. Konami’s prime RPG series, created by the late, great Yoshitaka Muriyama, is beloved by those who have played them – particularly the first two. They’re about the underdogs, about those who want better for their country, and not at the cost of a life. In the face of war, we push back against tyrannical empires and oppressive governments in order to give the people, and the opp...

Suikoden I & II HD Remaster is out tomorrow. I'll have a review up soon, but I wanted to post some quick thoughts on the new translation. “For the original games, the size of the dialogue box was quite small and there wasn’t a lot that we could fit in there," producer Yasuo Daikai told IGN back in 2022. "Japanese is a language that can say a lot in a very short amount of space, but for English and other languages, you need a lot of space to say the same thing usually. So in this game we have exp...

Waahahaha! As you might recall, Nintendo and Amazon filed a lawsuit against sellers of alleged fake products including counterfeit amiibo. In an update, Nintendo has officially won - with Seattle district judge Marsha J. Pechman awarding the video game giant approximately $7,030,158 million as a default judgment against the two sellers (thanks, Polygon).

Today's Wordle: Help with the daily puzzle.

A small but handy toggle. Nintendo Music yesterday added the classic Zelda soundtrack 'A Link to the Past' and it seems Nintendo has also updated the app for mobile devices. As highlighted by dataminer 'OatmealDome' on social media, this updates the app to Version 1.1.0 on iOS and Android devices. It includes an update for "automatic volume adjustment". Here's the full rundown of this small but notable update, courtesy of the same source:

Daredevil isn’t just back in Disney Plus’ Daredevil: Born Again. He’s bringing more members of the Marvel Comics community with him, with the late Kamar de los Reyes in the role of Hector Ayala, the White Tiger.  Born Again skates lightly over White Tiger’s powers and backstory in its premiere episodes — just enough to...

The Man Without Fear returns to TV this week with Daredevil: Born Again, more than six years after the final season of Netflix’s Daredevil. But don’t let its name fool you. Born Again is not a reboot of Matt Murdock’s TV continuity; it’s picking up right where the old show left off.  Well, sort of....

"We apologize for any inconvenience". Nintendo has been winding down repairs for some of its older hardware in Japan over the past few years and today the company's customer support in this location has issued an update regarding the 3DS family of systems. This includes repairs for "Nintendo 2DS systems" and the New Nintendo 3DS LL (known as the XL model here in the West) - mentioning how it's now officially run out of parts necessary to repair these systems in Japan. Here's the full updated not...

Sometimes the most daring thing a computer game can be is sweet and simple.

Available for a limited-time. Ahead of MAR10 Day next week, Nintendo has announced multiple Mario Day discounts on select Nintendo Switch titles.

Dotemu and Guard Crush Games, the studios behind 2020's widely acclaimed beat 'em up sequel Streets of Rage 4, are teaming up again for something a little bit different: Absolum, a fantasy themed side-scrolling brawler with rogue-like elements that's launching this year.

Civilization 7 doesn't explain many of the things you need to know to play it well. Here's how it all works.

The second beta of iOS 18.4 expands RCS messaging support to more carriers in the United States and other countries, according to multiple reports on Reddit, the MacRumors forums, and other social media sites. After installing iOS 18.4, iPhone users with Mint Mobile, Google Fi, Ultra Mobile, Tello, and US Mobile are able to toggle on RCS messaging, and the functionality appears to be rolling out for all T-Mobile Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). ‌iPhone‌ users with a T-Mobile MVNO can be...

Behaviour Interactive is offering a "last chance" discount on the famed Cenobite before his departure.

Which games might be getting cut next?

PC players of Grand Theft Auto V have at long last reached parity with their console brethren. Following an announcement last month, today Rockstar Games has released a PC update with features that for several years had only been available to the latest console generation. It's a free update for anyone who already owned a copy of the hugely popular game. The original version of GTA V has been delisted from PC storefronts in favor of the new Expanded & Enhanced iteration of the game, which includ...

The (ahem) legendary SNES game has been added to the service!

Diablo 4 is now in its seventh season - how the time flies, eh? The ARPG is continuing to uphold its end of the live service bargain with lots of new content, while players continue to pile into the game despite the fairly recent emergence of a major rival in Path of Exile 2. However, in a new interview, Diablo’s general manager Rod Fergusson has described traditional, seasonal battle passes as “antiquated,” hinting that some changes could be on the way for Diablo 4. He also says that while armo...

Civilization 7's 1.1.0 patch is available now for PC and consoles, and is Firaxis' first big response to player feedback.

In the latest beta of tvOS 18.4, there are new hints of Apple's work on a smart home hub accessory that's rumored to be coming as soon as this year. MacRumors found that Apple has added ChatKit framework to the tvOS code, which is curious as there is no Messages app available on the Apple TV or the HomePod. The ChatKit framework added to tvOS 18.4 includes reactions and notifications for tapback reactions added to iMessages, like "[person] disliked this" or [person] reacted with [emoji]," which ...

Despite serious performance problems on PC, the new Monster Hunter is a big hit.

Acclaim aims to "support indie developers and reignite classic franchises," with funding, marketing, and PR support.

Three years after the launch of Grand Theft Auto 5's Expanded & Enhanced edition on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, the game's next-gen features have - just as Rockstar promised last month - finally made the jump to PC in a free update for all existing users.

The seventh-generation iPad Air arrives just ten months after the previous model. Last year, the biggest change was the introduction of an all-new 13-inch model. With the latest refresh, the most significant upgrade is the move to the M3 chip. The ‌2024 ‌iPad Air‌ models have now been discontinued by Apple, but they may still be found refurbished and with third-party resellers for lower prices. As such, some customers may be weighing up whether to buy the 2024 ‌‌iPad Air‌ or the new 2025 models....

The Flame Sac and Inferno Sac are monster materials that you’ll need to build some powerful fire items in Monster Hunter Wilds. But you’ll need to fell some of the game’s fire-breathing creatures before you can get your hands on them. In this Monster Hunter Wilds guide, we’ll walk you through how to get Flame...

The franchise that taught an entire generation the complete lyrics to Goldfinger’s “Superman” and inspired more than a few of us to pick up a skateboard is returning with another remaster. Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 and 4 arrives on July 11 for PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch. Just like its predecessor, Tony Hawk...

Ask me again in two years.

Few games nail crossovers quite like Dead By Daylight. Killers from other IPs are always beautifully recreated, originate from some of the biggest horror franchises around, and bring fresh gameplay experiences with their personal perks. The Survivor crossovers are great too, don’t get me wrong, but slaying out with the Xenomorph from Alien or Pyramid Head from Silent Hill is just next level. While new Killers will always be added to DBD, Behaviour Interactive has just revealed that one iconic ch...

Grand escunites are a kind of aquatic life in Monster Hunter Wilds. They kind of look like glow-in-the-dark nautiluses (nautili?). You’ll need to fish for them as part of a side quest, “Razzle Dazzle,” for Kanya at the Scarlet Forest base camp. This is the fifth and final of her side missions after catching your...

All of the iPhone and iPad models that are currently part of Apple's lineup now start with at least 128GB of storage, marking the end of the 64GB era. Aside from refurbished devices, the final iPhone and iPad models that Apple offered with 64GB of base storage were the third-generation iPhone SE and the iPad 10. Both of those devices are now discontinued, having been replaced by the iPhone 16e and the new iPad with the A16 chip, which are each available with a minimum of 128GB of storage. This i...

Fortnite and Unreal Engine maker Epic Games is suing a player, Isaac Strock, for allegedly stealing and selling “hundreds” of Fortnite accounts. Epic Games announced the lawsuit in an anti-cheat update on its website on Feb. 27, filed that day in an Illinois court. In the 21-page lawsuit, Epic Games claims that Strock used social...

Elite Dangerous, the massively multiplayer spacefaring game first launched in 2014, has had its share of ups and downs over the years — sometimes even during the same in-game event. But after more than a decade online, there’s still nothing else quite like it: a digital rock tumbler that uses science and no small amount...
