YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE! I had a sinking feeling this morning as I pulled into the driveway and saw that I had received an email with the subject “Important information about FilmStruck.” What awaited me was my greatest fear brought to life. FilmStruck, the streaming service that catered to classic film fans was shutting down. As a lover of classic and art house films, to say I’m heartbroken just doesn’t do it justice....

And some real neat constraints Even though watching streams of people playing video games is all the rage, I can never get into it. I have a backlog that never seems to get any smaller, so it feels a bit unproductive to watch other people whittle away at theirs instead of actively working on mine. Despite widespread love for it, the appeal’s lost on me. However, there’s one exception to that rule: Awesome Games Done Quick....

It might not be practical, but it’s so dang cool Every day on the internet is a chance to see talented people leverage their creativity inwonderful ways. I mean, there’s a whole bunch of utter garbage out there, too, but allow me to look on the bright side, if only for a few moments. This project — a pair of customPokemonSNES cartridges, one forRed, and one forBlue— turned out brilliantly....

Kinda I don’t hear people talk aboutMonster Hunter: World‘s Rotten Vale often. It was one of the most memorable locales during my playthrough, and though it is pretty much the opposite of welcoming, this posterfrom crowsmackat least has me considering my options. I really dig the use of color here and the style of the Odogaron, who looks considerably more friendly here than he does in-game. I’m also a sucker for that whole “welcome to!...

Atari announced today that they have acquired the brand of one of their formal rivals, Intellivision, as well as certain games. I know what you’re thinking, but the beleaguered Amico wasn’t part of the deal. That legacy lives on. Let grandma tell you a story (this is actually before my time, as well, whippersnapper.) While it’s generally remembered that the Atari 2600 dominated the early days of consoles, it wasn’t the only one on the market (or the first)....

New footage, still light on info We first found out aboutTunic, also known as “Secret Legend,” last E3. It was paraded on stage as a cute vibrant puzzle adventure with a Fox, and this year, Microsoft kind of did the exact same thing — and it still looks great. During their E3 conference this year Microsoft showcased this new trailer, and like a lot of folks I’m still interested. This one can take its sweet time....

Sega strikes again Even though we got a few classics on the Xbox Live Arcade and the PSN recently, Sega isn’t going to bringCyber Troopers Virtual-OnorVirtua Strikeroverseas,according to a report by Siliconera. Virtual StrikerI understand, given the more limited soccer fanbase, butVirtual-On? That franchise is a staple over here, and Segaalready brought overVirtual-On: Oratorio Tangramdue to a high fan demand. It’s a shame, as the originalVirtual-Onis one of my favorite games of all time, and many a night was spent playing “winner stays” tournaments for it....

Four new videos showing off Luffy, Chopper, Kuma and Nami After years of putting it off, I’m finally taking the plunge and watching all 500+ episodes ofOne Piecefrom the beginning to celebrate the upcomingOne Piece: Pirate Warriors 2. you may celebrate by watching new gameplay trailers for Luffy, Chopper, Kuma, and Nami (we all know Sanji is the only character that matters here). Sadly, itwon’t be coming to Vita, and just like the first one, I’ll be dropping on the PSN as a PS3 digital download only....

Add to that backlog The Xbox Game Pass library has been great for accumulating access to a lot of games I need to get around to playing, and it’s adding even more to the list. At today’s Twitch Gaming and ID@Xbox showcase, over 20 games were confirmed for Game Pass at launch. This means they’ll launch day one on the service, so if you’re eagerly awaiting a bunch of these, that’s an easy way to nab them all in one fell swoop....

First-party exclusives ‘more difficult’ In a frank exchange withGameSpot, Xbox boss Phil Spencer acknowledged that experimentation with new IPs inevitably resulted in a “higher fail-rate.” “When you’re starting new games, in terms of new ideas and mechanics, your fail-rate is much higher. That’s why the ratio of new IP [versus old] is not going to be much higher,” said Spencer. “But I’m so proud we opened the show withQuantum BreakandScalebound, and I know it’s not a new IP, but I’m so glad we closed the show withHalo Wars 2....

I put togethera little previewof upcoming PSP role-playing gameHexyz Forcethe other day. Perhaps you were thinking that you’d like to see a bit more of the game. If so, I have some new screenshots and art for you to look at. The new shots give you a peek at how the game is actually two separate story lines following two separate characters. They combine into one wholesome JRPG by the folks at Sting, which you’ll remember from games likeKnights of the NightmareandYggdra Union....
