Everreach: Project Eden can be a fun third-person shooter, but its lack of polish prevents it from being a high recommendation....

The peer-to-peer servers for Evolve: Stage 2 have been resurrected. As noticed by NME, Evolve: Stage 2 players are now able to matchmake and join peer-to-peer multiplayer games online once more.

This article comes from Den of Geek UK. One of the great pleasures of following genre cinema is the long, enduring onscreen conversation that’s taken place between movie directors from the East and the West. It’s a creative push and pull which has resulted in some of the most boundary-pushing, inventive and important films ever made. When Akira Kurosawa wrote The Hidden Fortress, an airy homage to the John Ford Westerns he loved so much, he couldn’t predict its rollicking adventuring would be re-interpreted and sent into space by George Lucas to form the basis of the most successful film franchise in history via Star Wars....

Are you still playing Fire Emblem Heroes? Well, good news, Nintendo is doing some solid work to future-proof the title with more support and a lot of extra content coming soon. Now, Nintendo’s track record with mobile games is more than a little spotty. Lots of fans are enjoying Mario Kart Tour as we speak, but the steep prices of in-game content have rightly rankled many. Super Mario Run is a lot of fun, but the pricing structure (a one-off payment to unlock all of its content) just didn’t work out the way the company surely hoped....
