I Played The Virtual Boy Games On Switch 2, And It Was Actually Kind Of Cool

By all accounts, I am not the target audience for the Virtual Boy. The ancient VR console was launched and subsequently discontinued years before I was born. I'm extremely prone to motion sickness, and I wear glasses, which seldom fit in gaming headsets. Also, word on the street was that the console sucked, and that I wasn't missing out on much.As such, I've never been interested in even trying it, and haven't had many opportunities, but th

Ubisoft reportedly fire Assassin's Creed designer who spoke out publicly against return-to-office, as union reps call for CEO to resign

An Assassin's Creed designer who publicly spoke out against Ubisoft's return-to-office mandate claims the company have now fired him. Developer David Michaud-Cromp posted on LinkedIn last week that he'd been put on unpaid disciplinary leave after recently criticising the policy change on the social media platform. If you're out of the loop, Ubisoft have recently revealed plans to push remote staff back into offices amid a bloodbath of game cancellations, restructuring and voluntary redundancies

Jetpacking space pirates taught me a painful lesson in punishing strategy game Menace

There's an accidental element of roleplaying to the Early Access launch of Menace, the latest turn-based tactics game from Battle Brothers developers Overhype Studios. Like the newly-minted commander of the TCRN Impetus, thrust into leadership after a warp travel accident left everyone on the bridge of the colonial navy ship violently decompressed, I too have very little idea what I'm doing. While Menace's tutorial walks you through the basics of directing soldiers on the battlefield, there's c

Civilization 7's big Test of Time update that'll bring back playing as one civ for the whole game is set to drop this spring

As any Civ player knows, time has a habit of passing. Next week, Civ 7 will turn a year old. It's been a year of regular additions and tweaks following the mixed initial reception to Firaxis' attempt to do something different with their grant strategy behemoth. Fitting, then, that the devs have rung in that first birthday by revealing when they're hoping to drop some big changes that'll have "major implications" for Civ 7. Read more

Valheim developers celebrate the game's fifth anniversary with flower garlands, sweetbread, and Steam Deck optimisations

I'm going to a toddler's birthday party on Saturday and I have it on good authority from Alva's dad that there will be trays of sandwiches and a couple of cakes from M&S. There is no booze provided. I'm not sure if that's because there should be no booze consumed at a two-year-old's birthday, or only that we should bring our own. I guess I'll find out for sure if they frisk on the door. However, if Valheim's latest anniversary update is anything to go by, I am now looking forward to Alva's fift

"This shouldn’t have happened": GOG reportedly claim sale banner made with "Al tools" ended up on store by mistake

After being accused last week of using AI-generated artwork to promote their store's new year sale, retro game sellers GOG have reportedly addressed the issue in a private Discord server for paying supporters. According to this fresh response from a GOG staffer, the banner was made "with the help of Al tools" and was "mistakenly allowed" to be pushed live on the storefront. Read more

SPONSORED: DC and the U.S. Mint’s Historic Partnership Celebrating Comic Art
