What I remember best about Alita: Battle Angel, apart from that stunning Motorball scene, was the sight of Christoph Waltz carrying an oversized rocket hammer. While I'm not sure how much he liked carrying that hammer around, Waltz is definitely a fan of the overall experience of acting in Alita, as he very much wants to be involved in a sequel. S...

Late last month, a friend of mine pointed out that I always placed an emphasis on the weapon feedback of a shooter. While our conversation didn't stray from the topic of shooters, I have a similar mindset towards action games or action-heavy games of any kind. If you're going to feature combat heavily in your game, you better make the act of hitti...

Capcom has released a Resident Evil survey seemingly targeted at some Southeast Asian gamers. I say seemingly because while it names Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia, and Thailand as countries of residence options, there's also the "others" choice. Aside from the usual questions about age, what platform you own, and where you get inform...

Late last month, Platinum Games teased that the last of their Platinum4 announcements would be arriving on 1 April 2020.
