Here we go again: the PlayStation Plus version of Mortal Shell lacks a free PS5 upgrade

Another unnecessary bump in the road It’s time to claim the PlayStation Plus games for December, but before we get ahead of ourselves, there’s a caveat: one of the featured titles, the action-RPGMortal Shell, is just the PS4 version — even though there’s also a PS5 version on the PlayStation Store. In other words, if you getMortal Shellfrom PS Plus, you can’t upgrade to the PS5 copy for free. Instead, if you want to play the native PS5 version ofMortal Shell, you would need to separately buyMortal Shell: Enhanced Editionfor PS4/PS5 — a $30 digital combo....

Is Allison Road the spiritual successor to P.T.?

I SAID, LOOK BEHIND YOU Though Konami wants to“scorch the earth”and deny thatP.T.was possibly the best game reveal in the history of forever (do I still sound bitter?), there are some determined to keep the dream — or nightmare — alive. Christian Kesler began developingAllison Road, a psychological horror game set in a British house, two weeks after Konami’s stealthy reveal ofSilent Hillslast summer. The similarities are there — it too is a photo-realistic first-person horror game — but though Kesler is happy enough with the comparisons, he wants us to know that it’s not merely aP....

Is Avatar: The Last Airbender (ATLA) an anime?

I think one of the most contentious debates inthe anime community— perhaps even more so than the eternal conflict over sub vs. dub — is ‘what makes an anime, an anime?’ To some, a show must be made in Japan for it to be considered anime, while others will say it’s anime so long as it’s inspired by anime, or it employs a particular animation style or art design. In early-2005, a western cartoon began airing that would turn this debate on its head, to the point where nearly 20 years later, we’re still asking ifAvatar: The Last Airbendershould be considered anime....

Jetpack Joyride board game in final hours of Kickstarter

It’s difficult to believe it’s been seven years since Halfbrick’s fantastic runnerJetpack Joyrideoriginally released, but there it is. Time flies. I’m getting so old. It’s also maybe a little difficult to fathom that a bite-sized phone game that has come and gone years ago is now getting the board game treatment. But that’s exactly what’s happening, because theKickstarter forJetpack Joyride(the board game) surpassed its goal the day it launched. Here we are now with fewer than six hours left in the campaign, so I figured I’d let you all know in case you’re interested in getting in before it closes....

Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn is a thing…on 3DS

Nintendo has announced that a port of 2011’sKirby’s Epic Yarnis coming to Nintendo 3DS. It is sporting a whole bunch of additional content, including new abilities, mini-games, and a “Devilish Mode”. The port is scheduled for some point in 2019. Don’t take the headline as a sign of condemnation, as I enjoyedEpic Yarn. I liked the co-op mode and new look forKirby, but I’m just confused as to why a game that is begging for an HD re-release is being ported to the 3DS in 2019....

New BioShock feature video: Ecoshock

BioShock is going to be magnificent. You don’t need anybody here to tell you that. This latest video, however, has pretty much confirmed to me thatBioShockis capable of becoming THE most important videogame of this current generation and, quite possibly, all of recent memory. Not only does the gameplay look amazing, the graphics superb and the atmosphere perfect, but the stark moral choices presented to the player along the way, the true sense of dilemma — it’s that scope of deep, almost philosophical thought that setsBioShockapart and will earn it a place in history....
