Alan Wake, as we all know, took ten thousand years to develop. Much of its dev time was spent with very little public demonstration, and the game maintained a place in the public consciousness through pure hype alone. We asked developer Remedy if that was a help or hindrance, and whether it was difficult keeping the game under wraps. “It wasn’t that hard. Honestly, it takes more effort to make announcements than to just keep quiet,” explains writer Mikko Rautalahti....

If you frequent any videogame website, there’s a high chance you will have read about a game released this year by the name ofDark Souls.That it is quite passionately talked about should come as no surprise, really — there’s a hell of a lot of content on offer for players to discover, and it houses a fascinating fictional world full of tantalizing lore and exotic locations.

It’s a start One of my biggest hopes forSplatoon 2is that Nintendo will take little suggestions here and there to improve online play, and it seems like they’re on the right track. Speaking to Edge Magazine,Splatoonproducer Hisashi Nogami explained that when the sequel arrives, it’ll have a quicker map rotation than its predecessor. While they’re sticking with two maps at a time for now, it’ll only take two hours for them to rotate as opposed to four....

I’ve made use of my chargers like whoa I thankfully already had three backup batteries for my mobile device that I use for traveling, but I know a lot of people who bought them specifically forPokemon Goin the past few weeks.

Granted it does get highly technical as the instructions do assume that you have a basic understanding of dealing with electrical work (even if they call it “minimalist”), but even so — I know a few of you out there can handle the task, and the finished product looks pretty awesome....
Complete with characters on the scene It’s crazy to think how far people have come in the arena of LEGO construction. As a kid I kind of just make these straight towers, that I’d often use as swords until they slowly broke apart (Lincoln Logs for life). Now, people are recreating Hyrule Castle and King’s Landing brick by brick. 19-year old Joseph Zawada created thisZeldapiece for Brickfair Virginia, and it’s stunning....
