Demon’s Souls. Dark Souls. Bloodborne. Elden Ring. These games made FromSoftware into a household name, but they have been making games since the mid 90s in a wide variety of genres. The King’s Field and Armored Core series were some of their other most popular series, with the later series getting a new entry last […]

While the Megami Tensei series has been eclipsed in popularity by its spinoff Persona series, there’s little doubt that both series have benefited from Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne. The third game in the SMT series not only successfully gained the series a foothold outside of Japan, but it also introduced gameplay elements that carried […]

After Capcom’s Devil May Cry hit the scene with its stylish action and cool-as-hell protagonist, fans were hungry for more from Dante and company. To say that the sequel didn’t exactly live up to expectations was an understatement. Gone were Trish and Dante’s iconic one-liners and attitude, and in their place we had Lucia and […]

So that translated to seemingly everything, including lunchboxes, bedsheets, action figures, colouring books, clothing, and of course, Jurassic Park video games.

The Evil Dead franchise has always been ripe to make the jump to video games. Thankfully, it has done just that on numerous occasions (with varying results). With the brand new Evil Dead: The Game on the way, it seems only fair to look back at some of the various games that have used “the […]

Talk about a blast from the past. Before Gearbox and Sega’s 2013 shooter Aliens: Colonial Marines for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, there was…Electronic Arts and Check Six’s Aliens: Colonial Marines for the PlayStation 2. Obviously there’s some explaining. Check Six and EA were developing a game based on James Cameron’s Aliens back in […]
Part classic 80s action film, part social satire (that sadly has become reality with each passing year), the RoboCop franchise has done capitalism right from toys, TV shows, comic books, cartoons, and of course, video games. And as is the norm, the video game adaptations run the gamut in quality, much like the later film […]
2002’s The Thing was the glorious video game sequel to John Carpenter’s even-more-glorious film. Innovative for its time with the AI squad mechanics, we were going to be getting a sequel for the game from developer Computer Artworks before they sadly closed up shop. Concept artist Ron Ashtiani recently dropped a few sheets from the […]
