I Can't Wait To Play Adventures In Gameland, The New Platformer Starring The Rugrats

I lovedRugratsas a kid. To be fair, I liked most of theNicktoonsthat were on when I was growing up in the late ‘90s and early ‘00s — shows like Doug,SpongeBob SquarePants, Rocket Power, and Hey Arnold — but Rugrats was nearest and dearest to my heart. As a kid, there was something special about seeing kids even younger than I was getting up to all sorts of mischief. It was inspirational — these babies can have cool adventures, so why can’t I?...

I Need Kingdom Hearts News Now, Please

In just a few weeks, it will have been a year and a half sinceKingdom Hearts 4and Missing Link were announced. Since then, there’s been a Missing Link closed beta for Japan, and… nothing else. I had my hopes pinned on at least a mention at the Tokyo Game Show but, alas, radio silence continued. Square Enixis going full steam ahead with marketing forFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirthin the meantime, which makes sense, considering its launch is mere months away....

Mortal Kombat 1 Players Hate New "Pallette Swap" Halloween Skins

Mortal Kombat 1players aren’t happy with the new selection of Halloween-themed skins that just hit the Premium Store, as the ones added so far are just reskinned versions of the default outfits. To say that Mortal Kombat 1’s launch has been a bit of a rocky ride would be an understatement. Although most fans are happy about the game’s roster, story mode, and gameplay, there are a lot of things about MK1 that have upset fans....

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections Is The Best The Series Has Ever Played

I’ve had a complicated relationship with Naruto x Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connectionsever since it was first announced. After years of waiting for the next mainline game in the series (or anything other than Shinobi Striker), the initial reveal decided to present it like some sort of HD remaster of the original four games, which were already widely available on most consoles. Thankfully, that rough first showing didn’t stick with Connections for too long as, since that nightmare reveal,more highly-requested characters were confirmed to be joining the battle....

Oh No, Spider-Man 2 Has Another Puddlegate

No game does discourse quite like theInsomniacSpider-Manseries. So it’s no surprise that the sequel to a game that gave us “puddlegate” is back at it again, giving us another daft, inconsequential drama to laugh about before launch. Because - and strap yourselves in for this - Spidey’s suit looks kinda different. You heard me, there was a slight change to an asset during development. Someone get the class action lawsuit filed....

Pokemon Sleep Is Secretly A Productivity App

I’m rubbish atPokemon Sleep. How can I be rubbish at a game where you play by sleeping? By having a toddler who joins us in bed every night, that’s how. I don’t blame her – I can’t stress enough how little I care about this game – but it means that I wake up to scores of around 250,000 compared to my colleagues’ 2 million plus hauls. Four hours of sleep disturbed by intermittent screams does not a high score make....
