Marvel’s Avengers’ player count has dropped to zero on Steam three times in the last month, suggesting the efforts to fix the game are not landing with its fanbase.

Marvel S Midnight Suns Cast Every Hero And Villain Confirmed So Far

Marvel video games have a massive library’s worth of characters to draw from, thanks to the publication’s long history and Marvel’s love of the multiverse shenanigans and old-fashioned team-ups. Firaxis Games’ upcoming Marvel strategy title, Marvel’s Midnight Suns, already featured a huge cast of characters when it was announced, and the game’s cast of heroes and villains has only grown since then. During Summer Game Fest 2022, Firaxis revealed a new trailer for Midnight Suns (which was even backed by Metallica’s “Master of Puppets”)....

Mass Effect 10 Best Boss Fights In The Series

BioWare’s popular science-fiction series, Mass Effect, has undoubtedly shaped the gaming world ever since it first released in 2007. It doesn’t always take the traditional approach to gaming, with a boss at the end of every major mission, so the boss fights that do appear are expertly crafted. The fights are also incredibly diverse — one is never like another, and the player could be fighting an alien with a huge physical advantage, a creature a hundred times their size, a biotic with special long-range abilities, or even themselves....

Metamorphosis Is The Parkour Bug Game Based On A Kafka Novel You Ve Been Waiting For

Franz Kafka’s 1915 novella Metamorphosis is one of the most confounding works of modern fiction. It has been endlessly analyzed and explored through every critical lens imaginable, yet it has remained a literary black box: its meaning is completely open to interpretation, and its themes are as relevant today as they have ever been. Metamorphosis’ mystifying surrealism is what makes it such a profound short story, but I never imagined Kafka’s best-known work could ever be remade as a video game....

Microsoft Defends Xbox One Launch Parity Requirement

It’s fair to say that the relationship between Microsoft and indie developers has been a contentious one. The new console generation, spearheaded by the Xbox One and PS4, has brought with it more problems. Initially, Microsoft announced that indie developers would not be able to self-publish on the Xbox One, and that the tech giant would be closing down Xbox Live Arcade and Xbox Live Indie Games. The criticism raised over these plans led to backtracking over self-publishing - a reversal that led to a mixed reaction from developers....
