I’m going to need you to take my word for it that I like video games. The proof might be in the hundreds of columns or the decades of spending money that ensures I’ll never own a house or the experience of actually working on games. But that might be it! I did a podcast last week - a huge brag if there ever was one - and one of the hosts was talking about Sonic Adventure....

Summary Implicit Conversions, a developer that brings classic games to modern platforms like the PS5, has added an interesting new detail to its roadmap. As pointed out byReddit user beeperbeeper5, it lists PS3 emulation under the “Dreaming about” tab. Specifically, “Researching and prototyping the possibility of a PlayStation 3 emulator package”. This isn’t confirmation of anything, but it at least shows that the developer who brought games like Fear Effect, The Legend of Dragoon, and several iconicStar Warsclassics to current-gen (as reported byTime Extension) is interested in doing the same for the PS3 generation....
Quick Links While exploring the Zone inStalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl, you’ll often find yourself walking a tightrope, deciding who’s worth your trust.

Summary TheSonicmovie series has seemingly surpassed $1 billion at the global box office, with the success ofSonic the Hedgehog 3helping it reach this milestone. This comes while Sonic 3 is still in cinemas, so we can expect this figure to rise even further. While the studio is yet to confirm this, this comes from adding up the total reported box office takings of all three Sonic films.

Quick Links There’s a lot of variance in character builds inDragon Age: Inquisition, and few classes have more variance than Rogues. This class has a lot of room for interpretation, able to build itself to accentuate a few different strengths that are present in the skill trees. Cole’s unique skills in the Assassin tree provide him the chance to fully flesh out one of the more fun strengths that Rogues have: dealing increased damage with every hit....
Nintendo doesn’t often miss an opportunity to capitalize when one of its games resonates with players (or players' wallets, at least). The sheer number ofSuper Mario Bros.sequels and spinoffs out there is a testament to that. We even got two Mario + Rabbids games. That’s either confidence in your product or a true commitment to chaos. But even among this endless sea of wahoo, there are still plenty of Mario games that simply never went beyond a single entry....
If you primarily use Xbox, odds are you love playing older games. One of the biggest selling points of the Xbox ecosystem is that all your digital purchases from the Xbox 360 era and up are carried over; thus, you are entitled to backward compatibility versions of these games if they’re available. PlayStation really doesn’t have that, besides selectPS1 classics on PS3 and PS5. Since Xbox Series X|S has such a big catalog of games throughout four generations, you bet there are many stellar remasters to play, both old and new....

Most of them have normal professions like ‘teacher’ or… actually 90 percent of people in my life are teachers. It gets annoying. Anyway, they ask me “anything new with your work?” and I say “The Game Awardsjust happened”. Every time, I get the same response. “Oh, right. What’s that then?...

There are as many arguments about which the bestMario Kartentry is as there are laps of Baby Park in your average grand prix. Which is to say: too many. The same goes for other popular series. Pokemon. Smash Bros. And the answer is nearly always the same: the first one you played. My first Pokemon game was Silver. My favourite? SoulSilver. My first Smash? Melee. My favourite? You guessed it – SoulMelee....
