Kwalee Labs CEO and production director Hollie Emery announced on her LinkedIn page that she and the other eight members of Luna Abyss's development team were laid off earlier this week for undisclosed reasons. "Unfortunately as of yesterday, the…

The most important scene in Fast & Furious lasts less than a minute and Vin Diesel didn't get paid to film it

Two decades ago, many fans of the Fast and Furious movies felt the franchise had run out of gas. For the third movie in the series, director Justin Lin and writer Chris Morgan abandoned the franchise's established main characters, shifted the focus to Japan, and introduced an entirely new cast led by a teenager (who looked like he was 20) learning the art of drifting. It felt like an odd detour, and critics skewered it as a desperate sequel destined for…

Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival hands-on: The first good Hellraiser game?

As a lifelong fan of Clive Barker’s Hellraiser mythos, I’m cautiously enthusiastic about its first “true” game adaptation, Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival, after spending an hour hands-on with the game. Saber Interactive’s new first-person shooter horror game feels a bit like BioShock Lite that's been slathered in the leather, latex, blood, sex, and gore the Hellraiser franchise is infamous for.

Finally, A Fun NBA Game That Doesn’t Ask For All My Time And Money

If you're going to take on a juggernaut like NBA 2K, you'd better have a strong gameplan. Built from the cherished streetball memories of yesteryear and the charismatic vibes of today, NBA The Run is Play by Play Studios' debut effort and the team's attempt to squeeze into basketball fandom's gaming timeshare.
