Admittedly, all of the designs were a little similar to one another, but in the end, it was North America that took home the trophy with 60% of the vote. Europe came second with 21%, and Japan third with 1...

"Commencing Atlus suit initialisation system", crackles a synthesised female voice from out of my TV screen. "Life support systems activated", she continues. And eventually, "User initialisation sequence complete". It's a start-up sequence I've heard countless times over the last decade, but today things are a little bit different. As No Man's Sky celebrates its 10th anniversary, I've slung myself back through a wormhole of sorts - one powered by a dusty PS4 wrenched from a box in the attic and ...

Is there anything more fear-inducing in this world than a haircut? Whether it be the need to endure a cacophony of sensory nightmares, or the knowledge that a stylist who doesn't quite care enough could turn your split ends into the split end of your social life, the whole process is dredged in anxiety.

There's just something so vibey and hangoutable about it that I've never really seen captured in another game before, except for maybe the upcoming Danchi Days. Which, thankfully, has a r...

We've all been there. You're out on a hike with some friends, solving some abstract puzzles for a purpose that's not immediately clear, when you get two feet away from your pals and they're as quiet as a dormouse. Or at least, that's been the case for a bunch of folks playing Big Walk, Untitled Goose Game studio House House's latest, as the secret Predator game's approach to proximity chat has made it a little difficult to hear your friends.
