Review: R-Type Dimensions III (Switch) - A Novel Remaster But A Purist's Nightmare

The third thunder. One could be forgiven for thinking they missed an entry in this storied R-Type series of re-releases, but in fact the preceding R-Type Dimensions released in 2009 (and again as R-Type Dimensions EX in 2018) contained both the first two games in one package. R-Type III: The Third Lightning was first released for Super Nintendo in 1993. Notable for being the first game in the mainline series not released in arcades, it showboated with Mode 7 sprite scaling and fast scrolling par...

Co-op is definitely the worst way to play Subnautica 2, but as a big old sea-wuss, I really don't care

Co-op is definitely the worst way to play Subnautica 2, but as a big old sea-wuss, I really don't care

Confession time: I never actually finished the original Subnautica. It’s not that I didn't love its clever mix of sandbox survival and structured narrative; it's just that I'm a massive wuss when it comes to the sea. Or what lies beneath, at least. Subnautica's sun-kissed Safe Shallows? Fine, lovely. Kelp Forest's increasing murk? Nerves starting to tingle. The yawning abyss of oceanic horrors pretty much everywhere else on the map? Bollocks to that. Let's just say I played most of the original ...

New York's case that Steam lootboxes are "gambling" is a free speech violation that "will have an impermissible chilling effect on protected videogame design", argue Valve

New York's case that Steam lootboxes are "gambling" is a free speech violation that "will have an impermissible chilling effect on protected videogame design", argue Valve

Valve have moved to dismiss a New York attorney general lawsuit accusing them of facilitating illegal gambling by way of lootboxes on Steam, after first seeking to try it in the court of public opinion. In a memo filed this week, the company offered a largely familiar defence against the New York AG lawsuit, hinging on the idea that randomised lootbox rewards can't be defined as gambling under state law, because they are bought with virtual currency (which can be used for other purposes) and hav...

New Assassin’s Creed, Far Cry and Ghost Recon games will release by early 2029 say Ubisoft, who're also dumping cash into a "first playable generative AI experience"

Scopely's president of games Ed Wu (and former SVP of Pokémon GO at Niantic) recently spoke to GamesIndustry.biz about the title's future and said a sequel would not be the "correct thing" to do right now, and would likely divide its massive community.
