Today from May 10 Another promo due to the global pandemic: check! Bandai Namco, as part of a “More Fun For Everyone at Home” initiative, is makingPac-Man Championship Edition 2free…for everyone. Thankfully it’s not just a PC promo like so many others: the offer also extends to PS4 and Xbox One owners! As Jordan said in his review it’s not a new milestone for the series, but it’ll do: “It might be a case of sky-high expectations, but this sequel doesn’t live up to its sublime predecessorPac-Man Championship Edition DX+....

Encore! Encore! WhenBattleBlock Theateroriginally released last year for Xbox 360,we loved it. The cooperative platforming, secret-hunting, and unmistakable Behemoth style came together into one solid, surprisingly large package. Soon, it will release on Steam for PC and Linux, and it features all of the (cat) bells and (cat) whistles that the original had, with a few additional benefits. With potentially higher resolution and extra content, this is the version to get if given the choice....

Starting March 1st,Pokemon the Movie: BlackandPokemon the Movie: Whitewill hit the streaming video service. Additionally, the seriesPokemon Black & WhiteandPokemon: Indigo Leaguewill also arrive. It’ll be ready to go in a number of areas, including the UK, Ireland, the US, the Netherlands, and Latin America....

Looking for some Kickstarter loving It always hurts my heart a little bit to see what looks like a great game failing to gain traction on Kickstarter. Certainly, the crowdfunding community is more cautious these days than it used to be, and with good reason in a lot of cases. As a result,Ponchois up there with a solid concept, great pixel art, and a modest goal, but its chances of success are not looking good unless it sees a surge of support soon....

It’s now or never In case you ever considered purchasing a PlayStation Mobile game, the time to act is now. Sony is shutting down the service tomorrow, July 15, after which point consumers will no longer be able to purchase any new content. That means this is your last opportunity to pick games likeTokyo Jungle Mobilebefore they disappear forever (or maybe get released elsewhere). If you already have PSM games or acquire new ones before Sony closes the portal, you will need to download them to your PlayStation Vita, Xperia phone, or Sony tablet by September 10....

Hot shot I spent most of my weekend playingEverybody’s Golf. I regret nothing. Not a single moment. After a way-too-short online test session in which I swam laps as ablue-skinned space dadand dropped shruggies while lounging in a serene course, I’ve been dying to get back. Months later, I’m having just as good of a time, if not more so. This is probably the most fun I’ve had with any golf game....

You know, a few short months after Xbox LIVE Community Games launched, my interest in the channel sort of dropped to practically zero. The only time I hear about the indie games on the service is when friends recommend something, which some of you can probably relate to. And that’s exactly why I wanted to emphasizeHalfbrick‘s upcoming Community Game,Rocket Racing. Simply put, it looks good. Damned good, even. As the name implies, it’s a racing game, obviously, but what sets it apart is undoubtedly the title’s simplistic nature....

Cue the Hateful Eight theme As much as I’m trying to stay away fromRed Dead Redemption 2until it’s out, in my hands, and robbing me of sleep, I can’t resist learning more about the setting. Exploration is at the heart of these games. In a new promotional push, Rockstar has previewed seven notable locations with postcards, screenshots, and summaries. I somehow forgot the studio likes to come up with fictional states....

God of War 4? God of Four? God of W4r? [With Sony’s E3 event just around the corner now, it’s worth taking a look at this leak again. Do you think we could be seeing Kratos go against the entire Norse pantheon at E3?] If arumour on NeoGAFis to be believed, Kratos has gotten bored of mucking up Greek deities, and has decided to go after Norse mythology instead in the upcomingGod of War 4....

The latest update for Xbox 360backwards compatibilityis here! Some of your favorite Xbox games likeMarvel vs. Capcom 2,Jet Set Radio Future, andOutrun 2are now playable on 360. With E3 2007 going on right now, the timing for this announcement is definitely unexpected, but we’re not complaining. Back when Best Buy had theirhuge game sale, I picked upChronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bayfor $2 thinking that it would work on my Xbox 360 … nearly 5 months later and it still refuses to play....

Economy crash puts paid to retro hardware rereleases At the weekend, Sega Japan announced that it was releasing a new piece of portable hardware in the form of the Sega Mega Drive Mini II, a pint-sized edition of the 1993 console that will come pre-loaded with 50 Sega Mega Drive and Mega CD classics. Given thatthe Mega Drive Mini already exists, some fans might be puzzled as to why Sega has not instead focused on releasing a scaled-down model of its 1994 console, Sega Saturn, or its 1998 big brother, the Sega Dreamcast....

Don’t hold your breath Word of a film adaption ofMetal Gear Solidhas been circulating since 2006. Almost a decade later, and nothing concrete has really come of it yet. That’s more or less par for the course when it comes to movies based on videogames — all talk, no walk. However, Sony might be taking some baby steps toward actual production. As reported byDeadline, the production company is in talks with Jordan Vogt-Roberts to directMetal Gear Solid....
