Mortal Kombat 1 is set to release next month. Following the base game's launch, DLC characters (kharacters?) will join the game. Two such characters will be The Boys' Homelander and Omni-Man from Invincible. While both of these superhero-types are popular in their own right, they are also remarkably similar in many ways.

But after hands-on time with Assassin's Creed Jade (now its final title, without the "Codename" moniker) today at Gamescom, I came away surprisingly impressed. Jade is still in closed beta testing, with cut-scenes still missing and feedback from its first player test still... Read more ›

One of the spooky things I've found about wandering around Tokyo is that everytime I've visited, I've kept dropping into parts of the city that felt haunted by the ghosts of a virtual city that Tokyo itself had inspired. As a Jet Set Radio fan, Tokyo-To is everywhere in Tokyo. I looked out of a hotel elevator one morning and saw Shibuya bus terminal, where I had spent so long... Read more ›
