Meanwhile, on the moon… Ready to feel sad aboutMega Man Legends 3again? Skybane of100k Strong for Mega Man Legends 3claims that he recently discovered who would have been the English voice actress for Aero, the pink-haired character whose design was chosen by fans, nearly four years after the game’s cancellation (geez, it’s already been four years?!).

MineCon 2016 is a surreal snapshot of how far the series has come

From indie alpha to corporate monolith It’s appropriate that MineCon is in Anaheim, California this year, because it’s incredibly Disney-like. Watching the bombastic opening ceremony, it was weird having flashbacks to playing the voxel-based alpha of the game way back when, with its litany of developer in-jokes and lack of features. Now it’s practically an institution in many households (even schools), and in 2014, Microsoft acquired theMinecraftproperty for $2.5 billion....

Monday Mind Teasers: Huebrix

I love games that find complexity by exploring simplicity. This flash game does a great job of stripping down the fill-a-grid color maze genre, and it continually adds new path manipulation puzzle concepts along the way. I wish it would have provided more of a challenge over its 35 free logic levels, but if you want the hundreds of more difficult puzzles (or the ability to make your own levels) then you’ll have to snag it forAndroid or iOS....

Paul Phoenix is letting it all go in new Tekken 8 trailer

Poppin’ wheelies AND heads Bandai Namco has released a new character trailer for its visually stunning fighterTekken 8, which remains in development for PC and Gen 9 consoles — Thisnewest previewfocuses on one of the long-running franchise’s veteran fighters, Paul Phoenix, though perhaps not as we have seen him before. While clearly the same hot-tempered, road-ripping biker of previous releases, Tekken 8’s Paul seems to be leaning far more into his “nomadic drifter” status, trading in his tattered gi for a barely-held-together set of biker leathers, an unkempt, oily beard, and what appears to be a bit more bulk on his towering frame....
