  12. How the new Doom patch dramatically improves previously flawed ports

    Digital Foundry | How the new Doom patch dramatically improves previously flawed ports

    Disappointing launch code has transformed into a no-brainer purchase.

    What should have been a beautiful piece of retro fan service didn't quite work out. Last year, fresh ports of the original Doom trilogy arrived across a range of devices and while Panic Button's Doom 3 port hit the target, Nerve's conversions of the original Doom and its sequel left a lot to be desired. Incorrect lighting, broken music, stretched aspect ratios and other issues impacted what should have been a joyous celebration of a genuine gaming phenomenon. However, it's all changed now: while not quite perfect, I can highly recommend these revised ports and in fact, this is one of the most significant game patches I've looked at during my time at Digital Foundry.

  19. Games were nowhere and everywhere in an exhibition about the war against rest

    Over the Christmas break I gave up Pokémon Go. It wasn't on purpose - in fact I think I actually stopped playing a little earlier than that, missing a community day for some weekend commitment or other and then all of a sudden falling off the wagon entirely. But even if it was an accidental cold turkey, quitting has given me a strange sense of pride. I love Pokémon, and I think Pokémon Go is, for the most part, pretty great. It gets you out and about, it's wonderfully social, it's a complete change of pace from regular mobile gaming and, obviously, it is still Pokémon. But all the same I am mighty glad to see the back of it, because for all its pleasures Pokémon Go's grip on my attention and time has, quite frankly, felt rather tyrannical.

    Last week saw the long-awaited arrival of Monster Hunter World's Iceborne expansion on PC, but, for some, it wasn't quite the cause for celebration it should have been.

  29. Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE Encore review - stylish crossover that misses its potential

    I love a good crossover, even if they're often limited to fighting games and online events. It's exciting to see developers being fans of each other and working together to interpret and merge each other's stuff, culminating in an enthusiastic collaboration across the industry. With this in mind, Tokyo Mirage Sessions, a crossover between the Fire Emblem and Shin Megami Tensei series, sounds like a pretty fantastic idea.
