Not every Nintendo game is released. In fact, it’s not unusual for a Nintendo game to be cancelled behind-the-scenes, without the public even knowing that the game was even a thing. However, they tend to be revealed eventually, years after the cancellation had happened. More often than not, it’s Did You Know Gaming that takes

We could probably count the games that have made us laugh consistently on one hand. Maybe on two fingers.

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. When Duke Nukem 3D burst onto the FPS scene in the Nineties, young CJ was a bit confused. This Duke wasn’t the purple-shirted acrobat I’d known from Apogee Software’s pair of platformers earlier that decade. He

Earlier this week, we saw a new teaser trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The teaser gave us a glimpse of Cat Mario’s appearance in the film, as well as Donkey Kong’s reaction.

Jett: The Far Shore was, like the jagged colossi that roamed its lavender skies, an odd beast. When it emerged on the Epic Game Store in the autumn of 2021, you could see the conflict roiling in its belly – between the linear science fiction short story on the surface, and the freeroaming “Metroid snowboarding

Iron Galaxy’s Rumbleverse, its pro-wrestling-flavored battle royale, is shutting down next month, only seven months after its full launch last August.  Though Iron Galaxy doesn’t plainly state the reason for Rumbleverse’s demise, a blog post somewhat hints that a lack of substantial players may have played a role, stating in part: “When you work on a

MLB The Show has had a yearly release since 2006.

CyberHive is a weird game to try and review.  It’s a game that comes from Blazing Planet Studios, published by Samustai LTD, and pretty much does exactly as it says on the tin – you take control of a spaceship that acts as a hive for a bunch of bees. In this intergalactic beehive, you

It looks like a new PS5 advertisement is teasing Uncharted 5. Today, Sony unveiled its ‘Live from PS5’ TV spot that showcases video games, PS5 features, and more.

We’re now just one sleep away from the January 26 release of the first Marvel’s Midnight Sun’s DLC*.
