April 16, 2021 - 4 years ago

According to a new report by Bloomberg Japan, Square Enix or Sammy Ericks as its known to its mum, might be up for sale.

Redragon Ratri Mechanical Keyboard Review–The typing of the red

By Darryn Bonthuys
April 15, 2021 - 4 years ago

Redragon nails two out of three essential features with its budget Ratri mechanical keyboard: It looks great and it has a brilliantly attractive form factor, but it’s not yet at a level where it can give premium peripheral manufacturers sleepless nights. A competent device for its price-range, the Ratri is maybe best considered for those people who don’t want to make too heavy a financial investment on a new keyboard just yet.

Returnal’s nightmarish monsters have custom tentacle technology

By Darryn Bonthuys
April 15, 2021 - 4 years ago

Stuck on alien planet. Dying constantly. Being revived to repeat the nightmare all over again…things could be worse, right? Right! Because not only is Housemarque’s game a riff on time loops, it also happens to be Groundhog Day smashed together with Event Horizon judging by the interstellar mental nastiness on display. Which of course calls for that classic sci-fi trope: Tentacles. Lots and lots of tentacles.

Konami might be licensing or selling the Metal Gear Solid IP according to new rumours

April 15, 2021 - 4 years ago

Its been a quiet couple of years, with Konami largely transitioning into a new role where it rolls out pachinko machines and expertly dashes the hopes of any Silent Hill fan looking for a new entry in that series. But in a stroke of genius, someone at Konami has realised that a dormant franchise can still make it money, and it barely has to lift a finger to see some cash roll in.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake’s Yuffie Expansion is officially titled ‘Episode INTERmission’

By Darryn Bonthuys
April 14, 2021 - 4 years ago

The journey through Midgard is going to look double-fancy in 2021. The PS5 update that was detailed in a State of Play event earlier this year also revealed new content, starring everyone’s favourite Wutai Clan ninja Yuffie in her own solo episode. According to Square Enix, that episode has a name to tie in with Final Fantasy 7 Remake Intergrade. It’s called “Episode INTERmission”. That’s it, that’s the headline I guess.
