When Matt reviewed F1 Manager 2023 upon its launch last year, he concluded: “The presentation of the information is accessible and even elegant, but this is an enormously complex sport, and the developers haven’t found a way to translate this so it’s palatable to people who aren’t already deeply invested.” Whether or not this issue changes with this year’s edition,…
I love Rent. I have been obsessed with the famous broadway musical for decades. I rarely get to reference it here on DDNet, which means I’m so happy I get to now! An original Rent cast member plays the main character in Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical’s upcoming DLC, Stray…

Until now, Project Zero: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse had been the one that got away. It was originally Project Zero 4, a Wii-exclusive horror game that brought together Nintendo, Tecmo, and Grasshopper Manufacture (yes, including Goichi Suda), and was a particularly beloved game in that series.
