What will you do when the robots take your job? It’s only a matter of time until we’re all melted down and shoveled into vats as our flesh becomes a more valuable resource than our labor. So it’s about time you start planning ahead for your (f)unemployment. Your options are severely limited to 1) le
Tymon Zgainski is coming to the end of a four-year journey that has taken him from ennui to something closer to contentment, from teenager to adulthood. And now he has a date. His first-person exploration-adventure Rituals—formerly The Official—will be out of his hands and into the public’s on May 2
The French impressionist painter Oscar-Claude Monet, famous for exploring light and his perception of it, once remarked, “I wish I had been born blind and then suddenly gained my sight so that I could begin to paint without knowing what the objects were that I could see before me.” In effect, he wis
What’s initially so captivating about Therefore is how the music and art style blends together. Composer Sergio Cuesta’s incidental piano score plays with atonality in a way that’s reminiscent of the impressionist compositions of Claude Debussy, or Erik Satie: simple and pretty, but slightly hauntin

I never thought I’d be so interested in the dust that kicks up behind someone running. It’s kind of a throwaway. It doesn’t really have any effect on anything. It’s there and then it’s not.

There are not many other genres where four people with perfect hair, wearing all black, can ride around in a convertible that combines the suicide doors of a Rolls Royce with the bold roundness of an Audi, casually killing everything that they come across, and there be absolutely nothing be wrong wi
Huh. From what we’d seen and heard, Watch Dogs‘ protagonist was to be some sort of morally indignant Edward Snowden. But the new story trailer that was “leaked” today (doesn’t a leak seem like a far-too-convenient way to go viral with a game about wide-reaching government snooping?) frames the story
The Dark Souls series has a reputation of being big, hard, grueling games, but the raspy, warm voiceover in this new trailer for Dark Souls 2 wants to assure you that it’ll be OK. The tone is inspirational in a “these teams made it to the championship game” sort of way, and motivational in an “enlis
Sony has released a new trailer for The Order 1886, which tells us next to nothing about the hotly anticipated PS4 game that features surly curmudgeons battling dark legions in a rainy Victorian London. It appears to be the intro to the title screen. Thanks, Sony. But, you’re in luck. Footage that
