“Sega Europe reached out to former members of the Golden Axe: Reborn dev team to produce this prototype of the game for Steam as part of our 60th Anniversary celebrations. We wanted to bring the work of the developers at the time to light and celebrate it as a part of our history. Something we didn’t get the chance to do first time around. We certainly didn’t mean to dredge up painful memories for Mr. Dawson and his former colleagues or appear disrespectful. We’ve removed the line from the Steam copy that could have been taken as a slur on the development and would like to reassure everyone that it was intended as a comment on the build we had ported to PC, not the quality of the original work. We’re hoping lots of fans play the prototype and can appreciate the work he and his colleagues put into this developing this prototype.” … [Read more...] about Sega releasing a cancelled Golden Axe prototype stirs unpleasant memories for some of its makers

Take-Two Interactive patent could point to a bigger, better world for the next Grand Theft Auto
The patent filing makes no specific mention of GTA (or any other game), and in fact Grand Theft Auto 6 hasn't even been officially announced yet. But Grand Theft Auto 5 is now seven years old (although just five on PC), and despite Rockstar's commitment to bringing it to the latest generation of consoles, there's no way that a new one isn't coming. It might be a stretch, but this patent filing could be taken as a sign that it's still many years off, but whenever it arrives it could bring about a sea change in what we can expect from large outdoor environments. … [Read more...] about Take-Two Interactive patent could point to a bigger, better world for the next Grand Theft Auto
Nioh 2: The Complete Edition preview
I think part of the problem is that I’m already too far gone. Nioh 2 is bloody hard, and while the Complete Edition contains DLC that I’m missing, and has all these visual delights, I can’t part with my beloved PS4 save. I just can’t. Starting over again is going to be an insurmountable task, and it’s not like this new version transforms the game, or adds an exclusive new region to explore, or any new bosses to fight. I can purchase the DLC over on the PS4, and apart from some FPS drops, I’ll effectively have cobbled together Nioh 2: The Complete Edition – Lite. And that’s enough for me. … [Read more...] about Nioh 2: The Complete Edition preview

Sex Education: Asa Butterfield teases season 3 plot details and time jump
And, if you’ve seen any photos of Butterfield with facial hair, don’t worry. “We got snapped by paparazzi while filming and people have been freaking out about Otis having a moustache. I can exclusively reveal it’s not real,” the actor added. “It’s a stunt ’tache. And thankfully it doesn’t last the whole season. I don’t think anyone could bear looking at that thing for long.” … [Read more...] about Sex Education: Asa Butterfield teases season 3 plot details and time jump
