1 week ago | ign.com | Simon Cardy

As I’m sure you’re aware, the Nintendo Switch 2 is upon us. So, with a brand new console on the horizon, what better time to look back at some of the legendary publisher’s greatest games? For decades, Nintendo has given us some of the most famous and best-selling game series ever made, but here, I’ve picked out 18 of the most well-known ones to sort through. Yes, this list could stretch into the 100s, but we don’t want to be here all day, do we?
The Last of Us: Season 2 Finale Review

1 week ago | ign.com | Simon Cardy

Following last week’s sojourn to the past, the season 2 finale of The Last of Us throws us right back into the aftermath of Ellie killing Nora. If there were any doubt that her innocence has been lost, Ellie’s conversation with Dina this week confirms it. She’s numb, looking blankly into a mirror and not quite recognising who she sees in the reflection. It’s in stark contrast to the last time we saw Ellie commit such violence: in season one, when her emotions burst forth after fighting off David.

Stick with me, here. Mere hours after first playing FBC: Firebreak, I found myself mouth-to-dough with a delicious cream cake.

Mike Kayatta, game director of Remedy’s upcoming FBC: Firebreak, supports the notion of making games "that respect player time and don't try to overcharge."This suggestion comes in the wake of a flurry of recent games successfully being released at a lower price point than we’ve come to expect.

3 weeks ago | ign.com | Simon Cardy

The following contains full spoilers for The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 5. Episode 5 of season 2 of The Last of Us is all about Ellie. We watch her reach new, violent lows in her search for answers, and get some clarification on where those questions lead. We now know that she will mercilessly kill other humans and anyone who stands in the way of her primary target, Abby. And she’ll risk the lives of those close to her in the face of both human and non-human threats.
