Shadow Labyrinth takes Pac-Man to mazes he’s never explored before — those of a sprawling, gritty Metroidvania. Combining exploration in a futuristic sci-fi world with Hollow Knight-esque combat and arcade gameplay, the game is ambitious.

Discovering these areas is going to be so exciting. I’ve watched enough footage to have seen every track, minus Rainbow Road. And even then I feel that what we have seen only scratches the surface of what the Free Roam areas are going to be like to explore. Totally different feel when racing too.

Welcome back @gameinformer.com! Thank you for doing what you do!

Bleach: ReBirth of Souls is the most disappointed I’ve felt playing a game I’ve been looking forward to in quite awhile. I think I’m ready to move on from the Animè arena fighter thing.

Xenoblade chronicles X Bleach rebirth of souls and assassins creed , Atelier Yuma the Alchemist of memories & the Envisioned Land , 33 immortals, Reign Breaker and more comes out this week ! March has been a good month for different kinds of games!

My Picross addiction is reborn

Mine too. He reminds me of the Phantom of The Opera

Papa V looks downright wicked

New Ghost album getting announced one month and some change away from its release date is freaking insane.

That’s exactly what I’m doing. I can’t bring myself to care about anything that isn’t a hunt lol

Watching YouTubers rage at Super Monkey Ball fallouts is probably the closest thing to watching a sport with a drink in hand you’re gonna get from me in my 30s

I just don’t understand why we are taking a step back from World’s living ecosystem and fantastic exploration as well as Rise’s great pacing. Wilds is claimed to be a spiritual successor to World, but it definitely isn’t presented as such nor does it play like it

Monster Hunter

World > Rise > Wilds

I do not enjoy on-rails walking segments with bad dialogue and an inability to venture off-path. That is at least 60% of Wilds’ gameplay 6 hours and 7 hunts in.

When exploring, you are encouraged not to hunt any monsters you don’t have a quest line for yet.

Finally pulled my Grail on #PTCGP and not a penny spent in order to do so. I came so close to putting money in to it though! I wanted this card so bad

Review - Star of Providence We’ve seen a lot of games like Star of Providence in the Nintendo Switch’s lifespan. Buzzwords like “roguelite,” “top-down,” “dungeon-crawler,” and

Star of Providence is a great addition to the Switch’s library of twin-stick shooters, roguelites and dungeon crawlers! If you like Gradius, Enter The Gungeon, Nuclear Throne, ZeroGunner, etc. this is a must! The spooky atmosphere was a great surprise too.

Made it in to the Sonic Racing CrossWorlds beta!! Couldn’t be more excited! This is a great birthday present for tomorrow! Thank you @sega-west.bsky.social!

The new Killswitch Engage record is so good 🥹🥲

Takeaway from City of The Wolves beta:

The announcer sounds like Willem Dafoe

I’ve had way more dropped matches than I have complete matches

Rev system is brilliant, especially with choice of placement in health bar. Essentially an EX system

The game is fun as hell when it’s functioning

I recently sat down with Arcade Repair Tips for a conversation regarding the @nintendowire.com article I wrote about the new Chuck E. Cheese arcade spin-off, Chuck’s Arcade. Really enjoyed the time spent discussing it with such an awesome page.

“The new Machine Head song has pinch harmonics” is the least surprising thing I’ve typed this week

$20 Steam gift card as an early birthday present is a nice surprise! What am I buying though? Any suggestions?

Man, what is it with Nintendo using the month of March to take features or games away? I’m getting Mario 35 flashbacks

Especially that grey hoodie 👀

I need it alllllll

I will never complain about getting two high quality mascot kart racers in the same year! I can’t wait to play both Sonic Racing CrossWorlds AND Mario Kart on Switch 2! The last time this happened in 2019 I bought both Team Sonic Racing and CTR Nitro-Fueled and lived my best life. Fav genre of games

Atari alumni Chuck E. Cheese to debut new mall arcade concept Chuck’s Arcade utilizing retro '80s imagery It’s probably been a minute since most of us have visited a Chuck E. Cheese’s. If you’re a parent, it’s a no-brainer. It’s practically the birthday party

Atari alumni Chuck E. Cheese will debut a new all-ages mall arcade concept called Chuck’s Arcade that will utilize retro ’80s imagery.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

Who needs a gallon of ketchup?
