From serious Skyrim to cheerful fantasy: Obsidian on the evolution of Avowed and grappling with the "expectations that come from your own history"

Promotional trailers had left people unconvinced, showing an adventure that looked old-fashioned and lacking in originality. Yet weeks later, Avowed has wide acclaim. "It's one of this year's most pleasant surprises," I wrote in our Avowed review. It's a game that went from being under suspicion to an unlikely Xbox star. Obsidian has proven t...

There are many reasons Devil May Cry fans will enjoy the upcoming show adaptation's new trailer. But, I must warn you, after watching it Papa Roach's "Last Resort" will be stuck in your head for days.

For example, a MacRumors Forums member noticed the change in a Toyota Tundra with a 14-inch screen. In our testing, CarPlay still showed two rows of four icons in a Honda Civic with a 9-inch scree...
