Garry's Mod: $22 million in seven years and now Garry is making a new PC game

Source code playground Garry's Mod has raked in $22 million in seven years, creator Garry Newman has revealed. He and his Facepunch studio only see "less than half of that", though, he said, and then the tax man gets stuck into that. Then, when money is taken out of the company, the tax man gets stuck into that, too. Still, it's luxurious living for a game with no start, middle or end. [Read More]

Metroid Fusion | Eurogamer.net

I spent much of the N64's lifetime cursing Nintendo for failing to continue the story of bounty hunter Samus, whose 2D adventures against the nefarious Metroid creatures I had so enjoyed on the Super Nintendo, GameBoy and NES before that. However, the double-act of Metroid Fusion (GBA) and Metroid Prime (Cube) has seen the series return so phenomenally in excess of my expectations that I'm left panting and wheezing, wondering just where the hell any of this came from!

New Elden Ring datamine video sheds further light on those mysterious colosseums

Last month, prominent Soulsborne dataminer Lance McDonald offered Elden Ring fans an intriguing peek behind the Lands Between's conspicuosly sealed colosseum doors, and now, a fresh delve inside has revealed more of what developer FromSoftware may have had planned for the currently dormant structures during development.

Sunless Skies review - a rather more accessible literary space monstrosity

All the verbal artistry of Sunless Sea scattered across a gorgeous steampunk cosmos that's a little easier to navigate and thrive in. After 45 hours in Sunless Skies, it's tempting to offer your own spin on Roy Batty's "I've seen things you wouldn't believe" speech from Blade Runner. The problem is that it's hard to know where to start, and even harder to know where to stop. A hybrid, like 2015's Sunless Sea, of top-down steampunk naval sim and choose-your-own-adventure storytelling, Skies takes you everywhere from an asteroid circus to the howling corona of a clockwork star.

The Witcher 3 - Missing Son: how to kill Morvudd
