Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons Review

Overwatch 2 debuted on Steam last week and was immediately hit with so many negative user reviews that it's now the lowest-scoring game on the platform.

We’re still a few months away from seeing the eighth mainline entry in the Like a Dragon series. Fortunately, it won’t be long before players meet Kazuma Kiryu again in the spinoff, Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. That’s right, Kiryu did such a thorough job erasing his name that he goes by the unsuspecting name of “Joryu”. All the while, he’ll find himself once again embroiled in threats, violence, and underworld intrigue. But those who manage to endure these trials will get treated to a Special Trial Version of Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth.

Our online search history can reveal a lot about us, but which Americans are most curious about new technologies?

Perhaps as an ode to the horror movie genre itself, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre starts out with all the same joy and promise of a group of friends preparing for a weekend at a cabin in the woods before things quickly take a turn for the worse. While I definitely enjoyed plenty of my 20 hours with this novel take on the asymmetrical multiplayer blueprint, where three powerful murderers hunt down a team of four elusive teens, getting started wasn’t as smooth as it is in similar games and there’s less to do than expected once you’re up and running.

Overwatch just launched on Steam for the first time, having skipped the platform since its initial launch in 2016.

Outside of death itself, one of the things that haunts humans the most is the idea that we might eventually lose our memories, our sense of self and effectively our existence. Dementia, Alzheimers and other neurodegenerative diseases are frankly terrifying, and it’s with good reason that so much research is being done to find ways to stall and prevent their occurrence. The Gap sees one neuroscientist’s quest to heal his wife send him hurtling into memories and moments from the past, and on into a multiverse where the cure might be found.

Sometimes it’s best to simply start over and try again, taking all the experience and knowledge from a first attempt and feeding it into a better second effort. Lords of the Fallen is a multi-faceted example of exactly this. The original game’s developers went off to create a different Souls-like series, while publisher CI Games held onto this IP, restarting development multiple times before founding new developer Hexworks in 2020. Despite this being Hexworks’ first game, it feels like a well-rounded and considered effort at a thoroughly modern Souls-like.

In late July, the first preview impressions for the Western version of Blue Protocol began to publish worldwide. Although the game had a successful launch in Japan back in June, this was the first opportunity for press to experience and share their thoughts on the Western version of the game, which is set to launch next year.

The first reviews of the Gran Turismo movie are in, and the response is mixed.

The idea of introducing menstrual leave at GOG was born over a year ago during a meeting, when several employees drew attention to this common problem.

After months of speculation, the Red Dead Redemption remaster/remake saga hit a damp squelch of an anticlimax yesterday afternoon, when Rockstar proudly announced it was porting the basic version of the original PS3 and Xbox 360 game to the Nintendo Switch and PS4. For $50, no less. Fans were upset.
