Little Witch Academia began life as a delightful short. It was so popular that it inspired a successful Kickstarter – important as it was one of the first times a Japanese studio raised money for an anime in this way – and then a Netflix series. Now Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time is coming […]
The Seven Deadly Sins: Knights of Britannia is a PS4 exclusive
Netflix recently added the second series of The Seven Deadly Sins. The anime is set in a fantasy-like country called Britannia. The action starts with a woman running from danger and winding up in a strange tavern. Meanwhile the renegade fighters known as the Seven Deadly Sins are still at large. In Europe The Seven […]
Are Destiny’s Exo the most underrated race?
In Destiny 1 there are three PC races – humans and the awakened (who were once human) and the robots who became sentient know as Exo. Disclosure – my spiky purple pineapple of a Titan is an Exo but I can’t put help notice the race isn’t that common. Is that because they lack flesh? […]
Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr and deadly space porn
Neocore’s forthcoming Warhammer 40K open RPG looks amazing. Inquistor: Martyr is set in the Caligari Sector of space, where whole regions can get blocked off from the rest of the Empire at times and where shadows lurk. You’re an Inquisitor in this persistent and open world sandbox of an RPG. That means the actions you […]
Destiny fan creates awesome anime-esq intro
A mash-up of two of my favourite things; anime and Destiny. PopeOwned‘s video imagines what the intro credits would be like if Destiny was an anime series rather than a quasi-MMO that mixes fantasy with sci-fi. We’ve plenty of the usual anime opening tricks; a good look at the characters, some mythic landscapes, space combat […]
Zelda: Breath of the Wild looks gorgeous
We saw snippets of the next Zelda game in Nintendo’s Switch release video and it looked good there. In this standalone preview video it looks even better. The game will be out for both the Wii U and the Nintendo Switch next year.
Are you excited by the Nintendo Switch?
I remember hoping that Nintendo’s Wii U would have a controller that let you go mobile, play outside and join in epic games like Monster Hunter. I didn’t get my wish but that seems to be exactly what the nextgen console from Nintendo offers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5uik5fgIaI This first look at the Nintendo Switch (no Wii branding) […]
Destiny’s Rise of Iron and eSports
I’ve recently come back to Destiny. I started playing when the game launched, going from a pre-order gamer on the xBox 360 to stopping just after The Dark Below was released. My return to the game is timed with the late arrival of a ‘next gen’ console in the form of the xBox One S. […]
E3 trailer: Sea of Thieves
Sea of Thieves is a co-operative open-world MMO from Rare. It’s easy to see why Microsoft are showing off this gameplay footage – it seems to be great fun and important to work with your crew. Details are a little sketchy but many sources are suggesting the game will be available for PC and Xbox […]
E3 trailer: The Legend of Zelda – Breath of the Wild
Has there ever been a title so important to a games company? The Legend of Zelda is simply a game that Nintendo have to impress with on each and every release. Does the trailer impress you? It works on. The game looks gorgeous. The action looks expansive and clever. I’m left wondering whether actions like […]
