Well, here’s one way to express your discontent with the direction Square-Enix has taken with *Final Fantasy*. Make [a game inspired by *FF7* and put it on Indiegogo](http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/tbt-the-black-tower?ref=killscreen.com)… Um, and ask for 320,000 pounds? Love the battles with preying mantises though.

You’ve played sniper for years now. Why not [read about a real one](http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2013/06/03/130603fa%5Ffact%5Fschmidle?currentPage=all&src=longreads&ref=killscreen.com)?

[*SoundSelf* plus Oculus Rift](https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=181841445307935&set=pb.146620345496712.-2207520000.1369871199.&type=3&theater) equals… nirvana? Calculations are underway.

Look up insanity in the Oxford American and one of the entries will be Bennett Foddy’s *Speed Chess*. Holy crap!

Speaking as the one guy who honestly thinks the newer Sonic games are good and even better than the old ones, I highly recommend you watch [the trailer for *Sonic Lost Worlds*](http://youtu.be/D-sIkDWfccU?ref=killscreen.com). Makes me want a Wii U.

Polygon has [the complete life story of the academic game designer Eric Zimmerman](http://www.polygon.com/features/2013/5/28/4363458/eric-zimmerman-sissyfight-2000?ref=killscreen.com). If you’re into design, it’s worth checking out.

For us children of the ‘80s and ‘90s, [*Fightback*, Ninja Theory’s first iOS foray](http://www.chillingo.com/news/chillingo-and-ninja-theory-reveals-fightback/?ref=killscreen.com), looks even better than a *Bad Dudes* remake.
