News by Matt S. Of all the games that Sony showed off at its E3 conference this year, the most fundamentally interesting one must have been Moss, a game about a mouse that is being developed by Seattle, USA-based developer, Polyarc. As an introduction to the adventure we are provided…

The last major show of E3 has come and gone (remembering that Nintendo’s is technically a Web show and not a live experience), and… well, Sony was underwhelming, to say the least. The company came out with the intention to show off all its blockbuster development. That much was clear.…

News by Clark A. In an alternate universe, Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle was first revealed in Nintendo’s E3 presentation tomorrow.

News by Matt S. One of the best things about Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag (and, later, Rogue) was the ship-to-ship combat out at sea. Large sailing ships from back in the day were hard to manoeuvre and difficult to control, and this gave ocean combat a very different feel to…
