If consoles are dead, how do we explain the phenomenal success of Nintendo's Switch?

When did we all start ignoring Nintendo? Was it the Wii era? Because that's the moment Nintendo stepped away. That's when Nintendo decided to leave the raw-power console fight to PlayStation and Xbox, and let them slug it out while it did something else. Nintendo decided to focus on innovation and creativity and rethink the idea of the console, the Wii being the result.

Zohran Mamdani won because he knew when to be online — and when not to

Zohran Mamdani owes his win as New York City mayor substantially to his internet presence. Mamdani - as numerous writers have outlined - is good on social video. He picked a message, stuck to it, and adapted that platform to snappy soundbites across multiple mediums. But Mamdani's best trait as an online communicator wasn't knowing […] Read more

For a year, on and off, I've been thinking about Dragon Age: The Veilguard. More specifically, I've been thinking about my Dragon Age: The Veilguard review - the five-star review I wrote for Eurogamer. It plagues me. Because to be blunt, I'm not happy with how it sits. I don't think The Veilguard is a five-star game and definitely don't think it's BioWare's best game. To have suggested such a... Read more

I’d argue that there was probably no greater poisoned chalice in games than taking on the job of remaking Final Fantasy 7. Hyped for years before it was announced, its reveal part of the so-called ‘E3 of dreams’, and it is of course a reimagining of one of the most important and beloved role-playing games of all time. Even if it was brilliant, there would inevitably be grousing from some... Read more
