That’ll be in no small part thanks to the surprising, and slightly overwhelming , success of Helldivers 2 , which has certainly adorned my timeline with numerous clips of human on bug-stroke-automaton action.

Marvel Snap Is Incredible, But Its Cash Prices Are Incredibly Stupid

Marvel Snap is incredible, but its cash prices are incredibly stupid One of 2022’s breakout mobile games continues to impress, but its monetisation methods leave a lot to be desired. Make no mistake: Marvel Snap is one of the very best games of 2022. I know that, as ever, the awards chatter was dominated by bigger console games – but seriously, I’ve now definitely played more of this free-to-play card battler than pretty much everything that came out last year that isn’t called Elden Ring ....

Monster Hunter Remains King, But There's One Thing It Could Learn From Wild Hearts

Monster Hunter remains king, but there’s one thing it could learn from Wild Hearts Having trouble with late game monsters? A certain boss kicking your ass? Here’s how you can stop dying and embrace the joy of cooking. I think Wild Hearts is a terribly unbalanced game. I think some of the monsters you fight are too bland, and I think some of them are far, far too spicy. I think the gameplay loop is fattier and chewier than it is in genre rival Monster Hunter, and I think the vast majority of fights have more gristle in them than is totally necessary....

Nintendo Says Switch 2 Backwards Compatability Was The "best Direction" For Players, Even If It's Still Staying Quiet On Which Games Won't Work

Nintendo says Switch 2 backwards compatability was the “best direction” for players, even if it’s still staying quiet on which games won’t work You’ll have to wait until that April Direct. Image credit:Nintendo The Nintendo Switch 2 will definitely be backwards compatible, but that confirmation did come with a bit of an asterisk, and the house of Mario won’t explain why yet. Something that Sony really messed up on back in the PS3/ PS4 era is backward compatibility - neither console could play games from the generation before it (bar those very early PS3s), so the PS5 being backward compatible was obviously welcome news....
