As you may well know, Monster Hunter Rise was one of our top games of 2021, earning one of our coveted 10/10s. Many Monster Hunter titles get followed up with an improved “G” (for “guild,” in Japan) or “Ultimate” (in the US), and with the advent of the ease of patching that comes with modern

I’ll be honest, I loved damn near everything about Lost Judgment. I’m pretty sure my review of the base game made that point glaringly obvious. With any game in the Yakuza franchise, it’s almost always packed to the gills with content. That reason alone usually deters the addition of new story content with each title,

More content is good, yeah? It’s even better when you’re a fan of a franchise that hasn’t seen much action until a couple of years ago. Suffice it to say, we can add the BattleTech fanbase to an apparently lengthy list of folks getting the games that they’ve been wanting for years and being at

If you’re anything like me, you saw the release of Streets of Rage 4 as a wonderfully pleasant surprise in an apparent sea of new beat ’em ups (check out our review here). It’s no surprise that the devs behind this would want to expand the content through DLC, but the way that they’re approaching

New downloadable content is on the way for NieR: Automata! Costumes from the Japanese release of NieR: Replicant, new music tracks, cosmetic accessories that let you change the color of 2B and A2’s hair, Masks that have unique “on equip” effects, as well as special bullets that change the appearance of enemy bullets. But that’s

On this weeks show: It’s been a busy few weeks for EA, they’ve announced they will not develop for the Wii-U, discontinuing their online pass system and refusing to pay royalties to gun manufactures for their use of real guns in their games. On the cusp of Microsoft’s next console launch we get a few

What do pre-order bonuses, DLC, iPhone/Android apps and a trip to Fiji have in common?  They are all part of the just launched Tomb Raider Scavanger Hunt.  This promotion is a bit complex, or at least has a few steps.  First, you need to pre-order the game.  Doing that will net you a code you

If you’re like me, you’ve been playing a lot of Theatrhythm Final Fantasy on your 3DS since its release. If you’re also like me, you’re getting a little tired of playing the same songs over and over and over and over… and over again. Luckily for you, Square Enix has released a schedule that covers

New DLC for Naughty Dog’s Uncharted 3 is landing later today which introduces a new co-op adventure staring Zoran Lazarevic, Eddy Raja and Harry Flynn.

For some reason they want to fight

Over the years developing company Harmonix has gone through a lot of publishers, and a lot of ups and downs, not only internally but most typically when it comes to the publishers and companies they outsource to design their peripherals and print their software. Now, Mad Catz, formerly known exclusively for their work in peripherals

A more detailed version of the Tetsuya Nomura interview has revealed itself, and you can read it (untranslated) over here. Summarized English version here. Most of the already well known bases are covered, but reportedly the largest revelation here is that they are looking into a serious localized version, if not a plain out downloadable

There were two big releases this week as far as the Xbox Live Arcade world goes, and the one that caught me off guard was The Adventures Of Shuggy. What is a Shuggy? Well, Shuggy is basically what happens after you mix Super Meat Boy, Bubble Bobble, and Super Mario into a blender full of
