I met the developer for this, if I recall correctly, he's a one-man band. Good concept and ambitious in scope. Sadly, no Mac or console version so I will have to hope this eventually comes to others formats.

I’m still lamenting that WiLD never was released

*Correction: more than double.

LinkedIn is the professional social network Microsoft bought in 2016. The price has risen in that time, multiple times. For me it can be useful and last year I was being offered a monthly subscription for £15.95 (already a rise since the MS purchase) but this year I was being offered a monthly subscription for £34.95! Almost double.

I'm sure he will be disappointed, but Jim Ryan's endeavours for Sony to the trade regulators have not all been in vain. Originally Microsoft proposed to only keep Call of Duty for THREE years beyond the end of the end of the Activision Sony contract which ends in 2024. Now if the deal goes through Call of Duty will remain on PlayStation for TEN YEARS* (* if Microsoft includes the remaining years of Sony's contract this could actually be an extra EIGHT YEARS).

Microsoft originally indicated that it would keep Call of Duty on PlayStation indefinitely, then only this week it was revealed that Microsoft WILL pull Call of Duty away from PlayStation after ten years.

My OUTLANDISH business suggestion is that Sony should block any further CoD releases on their consoles because all it does is build up the audience for the game further which it will lose. Launch a good alternative, anything, at a more affordable price and market it heavi...

@jonny897 I'm not familiar with the many US politicians but for this senator to come out and blast Japanese company Sony as anti-competitive in a climate of the dominance of US Big Tech seemed to indicate more to the story which these facts reveal.

@Hofstaderman Correct.

@Profchaos Yes, this will be in the EU region. But once the Xbox Store is up an running Microsoft will be able to easily make the case to the US government that its citizens are being denied choice and products that are available in Europe so I suspect after that it will be an inevitability that it will eventually change its laws as will other countries.

* The law is going to change allowing third-party stores on iOS and Android.

* It means where Microsoft was previously locked out from smartphone profits because of its Windows Phone failure, it will be able to launch the Xbox store, and for every game sold on it it can now make 30%.

* This is one of the ways that Microsoft is looking at developing its Xbox business post-console.

I haven’t played the Remaster, but from that screenshot and the clips I’ve seen they’ve made Ellie’s face look older and that detracts from her story of being an innocent young girl who has to adapt to the world she lives in.

This Kotaku article is a repeat of the PS5 Firmware news that was posted last week - just because the person adds a comment doesn't make it an opinion piece.

@Profchaos, there's some games I never add to my library if I know I will never play them as they mean I will have to scroll slightly more - and we can't have that!

Incredible numbers.

There's an assumption in some areas that cloud gaming is the future, but as mobile devices continue to become more graphically capable of running games it negates the need to stream games.

And all this squabbling between the gaming community on which console has the best games; Nintendo or PlayStation or Microsoft, and all it takes is the advanced iPhones or Androids to become standard in worldwide markets and publishers like Capc...

What uninformed and over-privileged tech reporter calls them ’goggles’?

These deals are for Microsoft to help make the case that if it acquires Activision-Blizzard MORE people will have access to its games. However if we're honest, some of these cloud services do not have a large playerbase and, considering Google with all its resources and expertise was unable to make its Stadia platform work then these cloud services are not likely to be around in the long term either.

Microsoft has said it wants to bring its service to more people and i...

I read the headline and I said to myself ‘I bet any money that’s going to be a TheGamer story’. And you know what? I was right!

I opted to not get the Horizon: Call of the Mountain boxed set. Then I considered buying Call of the Mountain at full price - but I'm so glad there was a demo as it revealed to me what I expected - that it is a 'VR experience' type game. If you're brand new to VR then I can see how it can be impressive with the visuals and the immersion. But for me, it's exactly what I don't want which is game where the value is not the gameplay but the immersion. Sony needed a killer ...

I don't know how to count whether it has less subpixels than the original, but what I can say is the visuals of PS VR2 are better.
