Turns out there was another game awards show that just streamed a while ago: the Golden Joystick Awards 2018. It came, it went, and it awarded a bunch of games this year and even gave a lifetime achievement award to someone who deserved it. Here are the winners. Long story short: God of War claimed a lot of victories

We won't lie: Dragalia Lost is quite a charming little F2P action RPG game. You fight mobs with a party of four, you can build your castle and homestead (albeit in very simple fashion), and you can transform into a kick-ass dragon when needed.

This feature is currently in development... Update (19/9/2018): Added Challenge Tombs The third instalment in the second Tomb Raider reboot is out in the wild.

Happy belated royal birthday, Yang Dipertuan Agong of Malaysia. To most of us in Malaysia, it's a nice long weekend. But for some of us (sorta) hard at work at Kakuchopurei and definitely, DEFINITELY not distracted by Marvel's Spider-Man on the PS4, it's another opportunity to reminisce about the best kings and queens

From this mid-August until mid-October, we'll be releasing an SNK-themed retrospective per week as part of our tribute to SNK's 40th anniversary.

My only memory of 2016's No Man's Sky was the following: I mined a ton of rocks and minerals. I flew around in space a bit and robbed some aliens. I fought a bunch of space pirates with more guns than I do. I was mauled repeatedly as a result. 10 planets and a few solar systems later, I traded my PS4 copy for The

If you think Konami is going to bring a Contra reboot or a Metal Gear Solid announcement to Germany later in 21st to 25th August, you are sorely mistaken (though I like to be proven wrong here).

After the huge Marvel VS Capcom Infinite appeared to much fanfare and critical flip-flops, one would think that such attempts are over.
