So with the upcomingFinal Fantasy Ever Crisisbringing the “Compilation of Final Fantasy VII” to mobile, will Aerith be a part of it? Fortunately, we can confirm that Aerith is inFinal Fantasy 7: Ever Crisis. In fact, she’s a playable character!...

Go go gadget conjecture! What do we know aboutMetal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain‘s Mother Base thus far? Not a whole lot. We had an E3 presentation that contained parts of it, but not really anything concrete yet. Anything else is pure speculation. And pure speculation is what this video’s all about! Although, I have to hand it to the guy — his analysis seems well-thought-out, and probably spot-on in a lot of cases....

It was planned for Wii U ages ago When a development team is basically just one incommunicado person, it can be tough to track down what’s happening with an individual project. Last year I spent several weeks trying to get in contact with Pelikan13, to no avail, after publisher Nicalis had dropped the Wii U listing from the game’s official site. When asked about the move I was given a “no comment” response from Nicalis, but this new development over a year later confirms that the Wii U is officially dropped....

Our natural fear of the unknown immediately makes us keen on blending Science Fiction with Horror, but the combination isn’t all that easy to pull off. For everyAlien,you get ten movies likeThe Happening, and, well, theAliensequels. Here are ten movies that did the formula justice, some of which even pushed the genre forward by adding surprisingly effective, fresh new elements. Cloverfield (Matt Reeves, 2008) Movies about big monsters ravaging through a city rarely fail to entertain, no other did it better than Cloverfield, the only film courageous enough to ask people to experience all the fear and devastation in first person perspective....

These days, when a sequel to a simulator comes out, it’s almost invariably lacking options compared to whatever came before it. With the advent of DLC (and even before that with expansions), simulators often stand as a platform for more content. So, for retention’s sake, do the existingCity: Skylinesmods work inCities: Skylines 2. No, and I think that would be a rather strange expectation. On one hand, it’s true that both games are built in the Unity engine, but that doesn’t really mean much....

You may have heard that I’m already deep into the dungeons ofEtrian Odyssey III, playing it for review. I liken this game to crack for its addictiveness, and that can be attributed an odd combination of features and my own personal tastes. I really like dungeon crawlers, for one. I also love the game’s steady and stern difficulty level. Those alone would be odd in the eyes of many. But I also like drawing maps....

A trailer forWorld at Warwill be available“only on Xbox Live Marketplace June 21-June 22.” If you have an interest on Treyarch’s tour of the Pacific Front, you know where to be. I am still sketchy about the game’s setting, but if it’s actually fun to play, it won’t matter....

Hit or miss? Hi! Nick Valdez over atFlixisthas just reviewedHitman: Agent 47, a film starring Rupert Friend as a silent but deadly super agent in the silent but deadly rebootquel to the silent but not deadly at all 2007 film. Here’s a little bit of what he thought: Despite never quite getting a videogame adaptation right, studios are still trying to churn out film after film in order to hit that elusive sweet spot where they please both new audiences and fans of the original videogame....
