In many ways, that’s analogous to the work of British developer Traveller’s Tales, who since 2005 have been increasingly focused on creating games in the Lego franchise. Lego Lord of the Rings, Lego Harry Potter, Lego Marvel Super Heroes…all of these games follow essentially the same formula, the same blueprint. The aesthetic…

If this data is tapped and organized, it will most certainly have a tremendous impact on commercial operations. All you need are big data consultants to help you make the most out of this data.

Everybody loves a good fight. Whether it’s physical or a battle of words, we all gather around the aggravated parties, picking our sides and wondering who’s going to win. The major gaming services are no different in this regard. A lot of people in our storied community have preferences, and pretty strong ones at that.

1. The Last of Us Part II After the emotional rollercoaster that was the first instalment of The Last of Us, the highly anticipated second part of the story seems to follow Ellie on a revenge-a-thon through the post-apocalyptic, shroom-ridden United States.

This, of course, is where the remaster comes in. Remastering games is a wonderful way of preserving the nostalgic feeling our favourite games give us, while papering over some of the…

Some things are obvious picks for adaptations. Reading J.R.R. Tolkien’s opus The Lord of the Rings yields nothing but cinematic images and imagined sweeping shots across Middle-Earth vistas, while JK Rowling’s Harry Potter series is almost inextricable from its movie counterparts. The same is true of video games; one can hardly imagine the Batman universe and divorce it from the common childhood fantasy of wanting to be said Caped Crusader, so Batman videogames are pretty much a given. With that said, perhaps it’s time to turn our attentions to the lesser-appreciated pantheon of video game adaptations in waiting. Batman, Lord…

Some would argue that social anxiety isn’t helped by technology and that it, in fact, generates a worsening of the condition. However, few consider it to be the resolution.
