Two years ago, I told you about a bizarre game called What Remains of Edith Finch (opens in new tab), in which you morphed from being a young girl to a cat to an owl to a shark, which was kind of awkward, given that you were up a tree. …

Fine, I know, it’s practically impossible to pick a favourite scene from Trainspotting. Watch it again and there’s not a wasted second in its lean 90 minute runtime. Proof that movies were indeed better in our day, Boyle’s 90s tour-de-force is a relentless rollercoaster of best bits. The retch-filled sequence …

The Marvel Cinematic Universe (opens in new tab) now shows no signs of diminished returns. Doctor Strange (opens in new tab) made well over $600 million, while Captain America: Civil War (opens in new tab) was the biggest blockbuster hit of last year. They’re going nowhere, and they’re at the …

Nintendo’s colourful third-person shooter, Splatoon (opens in new tab) delivered fresh gameplay ideas that greatly distinguished itself from other titles in the genre. The game’s colourful, fast-paced action made it one of the best titles to come out of 2015, but it certainly wasn’t without its problems. While the gameplay …

Hawken, we meet again. I remember you when you were a bright-eyed arena shooter, fresh out of beta, with your promise of mech warfare in beautiful, futuristic arenas. It was 2012, and I was playing you on PC, but even then I saw you had potential. Why did it take …

“Life is complicated. I killed people, smuggled people, sold people. Perhaps here, things will be different.” You’re not wrong, Niko.
