In 2009, developers Atomic Games and publishers Konami announced Six Days In Fallujah, a third-person shooter based on a real battle five years prior in the then-ongoing Iraq War. This proved controversial for several reasons, enough that Konami soon dropped the game and Atomic eventually scrapped it. Well, it's coming back. Kinda. An "all-new" Six Days In Fallujah was announced today, now an FPS and being both made and published by different companies. Huh. Trailer's below.

I always thought it'd be pretty cool if The Witcher series let you play as a make-your-own Witcher rather than grizzly lad Geralt all the time. While I might not be able to do that in video game form any time soon, I might be able to in a board game instead.

Nvidia's cloud gaming service GeForce Now has been steadily improving since I reviewed all the major cloud services last year, and it now has the one thing I've been craving for absolutely ages: a proper honest-to-goodness list of all the games currently supported on it.

Standing 9’6” tall (in a hat and heels), she's captured the imaginations of many internet dwellers - who are mostly asking her to step on them.
