HOT FUZZ scene. Pegg as a cop talking to some underage kids in a pub When’s your birthday? 22nd of February. What year? Every year.

Happy birthday to this young man, and really to us all

One day!! It’ll happen!

With new blockbusters taking longer and costing more than ever to make, and nostalgia never a more powerful currency, shuttering a proven specialist in remakes and remasters is frankly insane. Casting out a team of such deep technical expertise and, more crucially, such broad institutional knowledge — Bluepoint doesn’t just know its own tools and technology, but also those of the studios whose games it has modernised, from Sony Santa Monica to Naughty Dog, Team Ico to FromSoftware — is simply inexplicable. Pretending there’s nothing for Bluepoint to work on, when the market for remakes has never been bigger and the long-rumoured, widely coveted Bloodborne remake has reached Shenmue 3 levels of mythicism, is unbelievable. Everything about this decision, from top to bottom and viewed from any and every angle, is ridiculous, baffling, an affront.

I so desperately want to play The Witcher 3 without bouncing off of it after 2 hours (this has happened several times)

Opinion: Sony's Disgraceful Bluepoint Closure Should Concern Every PS Studios Fan A sorry state of affairs

I thought they might have added them to NSO but without access to rewind/save states, the way they did with RBY and GSC on the 3DS. Bit of a shame to have them separate like that

Hell yeah there is.

Honestly feels like PlayStation just has no idea what it’s doing recently

Virtual Boys rise up

Now THIS is how you do pancake day holy shit

God bless photobucket for holding onto this image for nearly 20 years

brb just digging out my onm forum signature featuring the six characters I want added in the next Smash Bros (one of them is Paper Mario)

Kena was a huge "hell yeah" moment, didn't have a sequel on my radar at all, but so looking forward to it

This is much better than the terrible Chickero: Eggs Lay Twice joke I made to someone earlier

Need to unshackle the Resistance games from PS3 now the door has been opened a crack

These are so sick mate

In the next twelve months apparently 👀

YouTube video by Nintendo UK Orbitals – An intergalactic co-op adventure! (Nintendo Switch 2)

Honestly losing my mind at how GOOD Orbitals looks and sounds - no idea how they've so successfully captured the look and feel of '80s anime, there's so much OG Dragon Ball energy in this

I’m on the lookout for gaming journalists who have a strong passion for the metroidvania genre.

Bonus points if the site you write for has a strong US focused audience.

If this is you, let me know, and I’ll be in touch. 😌

(This is just for editorial journalists, influencers I’m all set for)

This feels like a personal attack

Now you too can play a slowed down version of a game from 20 years ago with no actual level design or enemies and all it costs is a complete collapse of the world economy, biosphere, education system, and multiple entire creative industries.

Love that you can literally shake hestu like maracas

A hugely underrated game this

Watching @oxventure.bsky.social at Hackney Empire was a surreal, chaotic, and very funny time

One of my messenger apps keeps "offering" to "summarize" conversations from my friends and loved ones, and WHY THE FUCK WOULD I WANT THAT?

A new website about PC games, from me, @brendyc.bsky.social and @jonhicks.com.

Reader-supported, which means no ads, no guff, and lots of games blogging about delightful things to play. If you liked our work on RPS, we think you'll like @jank.cool.

# 7 - Battalion Wars 2

A near perfect sequel! Understands its limitations and asks for less fast-paced strategy, instead leans more into strong level and encounter design.

Endlessly fun, some great set pieces, much more varied art design. Makes me very sad that we never got another Battalion Wars!

#6 - Battalion Wars

A really interesting Advance Wars spin off, mixing RTS with third-person shooting. Very entertaining, but is limited by its control scheme and hits some crazy difficulty spikes.

Got to the end of this unsure if I was bothered about playing the sequel
