The release of Virtue and a Sledgehammer, the latest from Selkie Harbour, Deconstructeam, and Devolver Digital, is right around the corner. We’re going to have a review of what is a pretty provocative and powerful entry into the “games as art” genre, and we certainly had some questions for the developers about it.

Here’s the thing: I find that a lot of gaming-focused mice don’t put ergonomics particularly high on the list of priorities. That’s not to say they can’t be comfortable, but the focus is very clearly on the design and the features that will give the user a competitive edge. And…
Well, fellow Final Fantasy fans, here’s our chance. For years now we’ve…
