Biggest Video Game News Of The Week (February 18)

Unlikethat week when Nintendo decided to drop bombshell after bombshell during its Direct, even though this week included aState of Play, the headlines for the past seven days were far from dominated by it. Not only because it didn’t happen until Thursday, but also because it didn’t include many blockbuster announcements. Don’t get me wrong, there will be a couple of stories from it sprinkled in, but in a week that includedXboxattempting to up the ante as it continues to try and get itsActivisiondeal through, and aTears of the Kingdomart book got leaked, revealing Tchia will be here before you know it simply isn’t the kind of thing that’s going to make the biggest stories cut....

So many survival horror shooters from theXbox 360andPS3era have aged terribly, having proven to be inconsistent grey slabs of overdone set pieces and toxic masculinity in 2023....

Of course, the rotoscoped neon visual style is still the dog’s bollocks even 40 years later, but I also adore Wendy Carlos’ soundtrack, the subtle character moments, and prescient message about the impact – intended or otherwise – programmers have on their creations....
