Bounty Star takes Armored Core to the Wild West

A new mod for finally makes space travel as simple as players have always wanted. One of the aspects of that players were looking forward to the most was space travel, with the game boasting thousands of different planets to visit, but both of these aspects ended up falling short of player expectations. Traveling can be difficult, especially when each part of flying through space takes a handful of cut scenes to get rolling. Thankfully, mods can help ease the pain of traveling and make it as immersive as everyone was hoping it would be in the first place.

Mars Express, the new sci-fi noir thriller from French director and animator Jérémie Périn, is finally available to stream on VOD this week following its American theatrical run in May. Périn’s film is fantastic: a sophisticated, hard-boiled detective story set in a futuristic society where humans and robots live side by side that’s as indebted to Chinatown and The Long Goodbye as it is to Ghost in the Shell.

When the first trailer for Lucasfilm’s latest Star Wars series, The Acolyte, dropped back in March, the group email for my Star Wars: Edge of the Empire role-playing game immediately blew up. The tongue-in-cheek question on our minds was whether someone at Lucasfilm had been secretly monitoring our latest story arc: Our game is set during the Old Republic era and The Acolyte is a High Republic-era story, but otherwise, everything we knew about the new series seemed entirely compatible with the original story our game master had whipped up, about a Jedi kidnapping dozens of Force-sensitive children for training, and quietly advising the local Commerce Guild outpost on ways to violently suppress the local uprising that resulted.
