Get to know the people who make great videogames [Update: Argh! Sorry to everyone who was confused seeing that the video was “private”. That’s because the live show ended on 26-07-2025 at 5:30pm EST. The rerun should be up this weekend. Here’s a trailer forDesert Ashesin the meantime.] Today on Sup Holmes, we welcome Luc Bernard back to the program. Luc was one of ouroriginal guests on the show, back when he was working onImagination is the Only EscapeandMass Effect‘s sex optionswere still a hot topic of discussion....

For pretty much every mode Red Dead Online(included inRed Dead Redemption 2) is trying to entice people to come back again with another buffed reward event similar toCall of Duty‘s Double XP weekends. You’ll get 1.5 times the amount of gold and RDO$ (as the currency is called), so long as you play any showdown, race, or gun rush mode (that includes plunder, which was just added to the game). Land of opportunities and free roam also boast bonuses....

The nearly decade-longDragon Agedrought has officially come to an end with the release ofDragon Age: The Veilguard. In the time sinceDragon Age: Inquisition‘s release, developer BioWare has releasedMass Effect: Andromedaand most recently,Anthem. Depending on who you ask, both of these titles are typically seen as alright at best, but I think you’d be hard-pressed to find someone who feels as though either lived up to the typical high-quality standards that BioWare had been known for in the past....

Sexy time! Gaming’s official belly dancer,Shantae, has made quite the name for herself over the last decade. Beginning as a late era Game Boy Color title, the series has spawned several sequels on various platforms and garnered a cult following. The latest game in the series,Half-Genie Hero, actually wound up seeing a physical release on the Wii U, of all consoles, so it comes as no surprise that the Switch would be receiving the same thing....

It’s safe to say December’s announcement ofTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tactical Takedowncame out of left field. Now there’s a date for the strategy outing from somewhat unlikely developer Strange Scaffold. Billed as a turn-based beat ‘em up,Tactical Takedownis set to mix the turtles with strategic grid-hopping on May 22. You can see more of the game in action in a new release date trailer. It’s not that aTMNTstrategy game is inherently unexpected....

Si vous etes capable d’en trouver une, evidemment The ongoing rumor that language laws in Quebec were preventing the sale of the SNES Classic has turned out unfounded, Toys “R” Us Canada confirmed on Twitter. Nintendo left us all hanging, but according to the toy store chain, they will be available across the country… And not exclusively from their stores either. Great news:#SNESClassicwill be available in Quebec – thanks!#Nintendo — ToysRUs Canada (@toysruscanada)Jul 17, 2025...

Watch Saturday Morning Hangover every weekend on Dtoid TV! Today on Saturday Morning Hangover, I knew we were going to have something special going on. See, my wife fancies herself quite the Foosball player and is extremely competitive, so I thought it would be fun to see how she does atFoosball 2012for the PlayStation 3. It was either going to end in her over-excitedly bragging (hilarious) or shrieking over the agony of defeat (also hilarious), and she did not disappoint....

It’s pinball-related, to be sure You might know Zen Studios as “The Pinball Guys.” The Hungary-based developer has more games under its belt, but in recent years, it’s most well-known ventures have included flippers, steel balls, and franchises from elsewhere in pop culture. It seems as if the next project in Zen’s pipeline will take on a theme from one of gaming’s most prolific developers: Valve. Zen recentlytweetedout a picture of the two companies’ logos with a sleek pinball sheen....

Big congrats to the team at Asobo! There are plenty of big milestones in game development: announcing a new game, getting in the first playable build, and of course, the release. But one of the most exciting parts of that process is when a game goes gold, meaning the final playable version goes off to distributors and manufacturers. It’s a culmination of years of work from sometimes hundreds, if not thousands of people, and it’s more exciting than it probably sounds....

Eagle Flight, Werewolves Within, and Star Trek: Bridge Crew In an amazing effort to not piss off VR fans who bought one $600+ box and potentially missed out on a specific game because of it, Ubisoft is releasing all three of its major VR titles later this year on all three major platforms — Oculus Rift, PSVR, and the HTC Vive. Eagle Flighthits the former two on November 8 (with the Vive version hitting December 20),Star Trek: Bridge Crewarrives on November 29 on everything, andWerewolves Withinhits all three on December 6....

Remarkably unremarkable I find scrolling shoot-’em-ups to be one of the most difficult genres to talk about, right up there with puzzle games. It’s a formula that has been utilized many times, and frequently the changes are very small. Most of the time, you maneuver your spaceship, unicorn, or spaceship with boxing gloves around on an automatically scrolling background until a much larger boss shows up. I can’t say thatAxelayis much different....

Since he was 14, pianist Jason Lyle Black has been honing the unorthodox technique of playing the piano while sitting in reverse. Can you imagine all the muscle memory you’d have to fight against to pull off such a feat? I guess it wouldn’t be much different from crossing your arms during play, but it’s impressive to watch nonetheless. So here’s Jason as he plays through the overworld theme ofSuper Mario Bros....

Coming this summer for PS3, Xbox 360, and Steam A set of downloadable chapters dubbedThe Lost Crownstrilogy are heading toDark Souls II, Bandai Namco announced today. The first episode,Crown of the Sunken King, will be available on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Steam starting July 22.
