In conjunction with the 25th Anniversary of PlayStation, today PlayStation fans all over the world gathered in Japan, as well as in front of their screens, to watch the PlayStation Awards 2019. It was an event that celebrated the amazing games we've been playing not just this year but ever since the launch of the first

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the original PlayStation, which originally launched in Japan on 3 December 1994 and changing the landscape of the gaming industry forever. Sony's first console is currently the fifth best-selling gaming console of all-time (including handhelds), with over 102.49 million units sold to

There are only two certainties in life - death and Steam sales popping up every few weeks to drain our bank accounts. The end of 2019 approaches, so it's time to get ready for the season that's the most painful for our wallets. The Steam Autumn Sale has begun will be happening from 26 November to 3 December 2019. Th

It's alive. ALIVE!!!! The Steam Halloween Sale is back from the dead. Again. Reanimated, if you will. And that means spooky savings on horror-based and horror-themed games. The sale will last from now until 1st November 10am PT. While you won't find a ginormous amount of games with half-off or more, you'll at least f

Guess we finally know the real reason why Ikumi Nakamura left Tango Gameworks & Ghostwire Tokyo; she's going back to an old flame. In this case, it's a flame generated by wolf sun goddess Amaterasu. Just recently on Twitter, she and PlatinumGames director Hideki Kamiya teased a true Okami sequel. https://twitter.

Capcom's annual financial report for 2019 is out and it's 104 pages of facts and figures that I'll need more time to peruse. For now, I'll have to thank the folks at PCGamesN for pointing out that the report contains statements alluding that Capcom wants to look back and bring forward some of their intellectual propert

What's that? You somehow missed out on the Steam Summer Sale? Or you took too long contemplating whether or not to get that game you wanted and only now you realise you want it? Or you simply have more money and you just want to buy more games? Fear not, friend. Ever heard of Green Man Gaming? Well if your answer is

Holding meetings with shareholders and investors is part and parcel of running a company, and the games industry is no different. If you think the shareholders in video game companies are any different than those in more conventional ones, they're usually the same old crusty folks who almost always have no idea how thi

When Marvel vs Capcom 3 came into the fighting game scene in 2011 after a lot of hype, many Versus fans and connoisseurs of hyper fighting were beyond joy. It was a revolution of fighting games that not only brought two popular pop culture and gaming IPs together, but also made competitive fighting games a lot more col

The art of war is strong with this iteration of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Total War: Three Kingdoms has garnered a player count peak of 191,816 within 24 hours, which is the largest number for a game launch this year. For comparison's sake: Sekiro's player count peak was at 124,334, placing the tough-as-nails g

Capcom is one of those brands you need no introduction of. It's been etched in the minds of the young and old from the early days of gaming from the arcade days to current cutting edge consoles. So it's no surprise when Capcom lists out their top ten titles that have sold more than one million units. As a matter of fa

Zombies. Freakers. Infected. The Undead. Many games over many decades have featured these nightmarish flesh-eating creatures, albeit with some variation in their looks and abilities to keep things fresh. With the PS4 exclusive Days Gone around the corner, featuring zombies in the hundreds to take down, I want to loo

Like most people, I loved Red Dead Redemption 2. It's the best that Rockstar has offered in terms of storytelling, characters, and dialogue. However, I have a hard time classifying it as my favourite Rockstar game and that's mainly because the overall gameplay just isn't all that great. After more than an entire decad

It's the new year. Birds are chirping anew. The Malaysian King just resigned. A new ruling party is in charge. Singapore's still our neighbours, for good and ill. And we now have more games to look forward to because it's what we love to do to escape from real life if only for a fleeting moment. Here's a list of all t

I took the PlayStation Classic for a spin recently. And while a few of the games deserved to be on the retro-throwback cube, I felt that there should be other worthy titles in the mix. As it stands, the motley of games on the mini retro console is, how shall I put it, lacking. I'm not saying I know better, but as some

From 26th to 28th October, the Philippines were blessed with one of Southeast Asia's biggest gaming expos called the Electronic Sports & Gaming Summit. I was there, and at a risk of sounding like a shill, I'd say this event goes beyond kickassery. It's got upcoming games like Project Xandata, Devil May Cry 5, &

Capcom's recent annual report for 2018 is up, and it looks like sunshine and rainbows for the house that created Street Fighter, Resident Evil, and Mega Man. Here's what we gathered: The company's net sales during its fiscal year are worth 94,515,000,000 yen/US$841,759,332, which is an 8.4% increase from the previou

Last weekend, PlayStation fans were in for a treat. At least the ones in Bangkok, Thailand, and the ones who managed to fly down there on time. The PlayStation Experience 2018 took place at the GMM Live House, featuring upcoming titles like that Spider-Man game, SoulCalibur VI, and Kingdom Hearts III, as well as guest

Capcom, the folks behind making a ton of sequels out of old properties like Street Fighter and Mega Man, just released its first quarter report for the fiscal year 2018/2019 which concluded in March 2019. To quote what they started off with their announcement: "After closing its most profitable first quarter since the

With E3 2018 done and gone a few weeks ago, we can all be assured that the rest of 2018 and the earlier parts of 2019, especially 22 February of next year, will be chock-filled with gaming titles aplenty. But what about the games that are MIA? Not to say that we aren't impressed with the diverse lineup of games we hav
