Later this week, the JapaneseSplatooncommunity will battle it out in ink-based warfare in order to establish which is the best “food” item available at McDonald’s: French Fries or McNuggets.

It shows Marina and Pearl perusing what looks like the music to their latest (s)hit single, while enjoying lunch in their dressing room....

Visual and gameplay improvements fromMetro: Last Lightare being carried back intoMetro 2033 Redux,as detailed here.Last Light Reduxwill also look nicer, include all DLC, and have new features like “check watch” and “check inventory,” though the cosmetic upgrades won’t be quite so dramatic in comparison....

As we explained when we showed the lastLeft 4 DeadTV spot, Valve barely needs to doanythingfor this game to sell, since a co-op zombie FPS is a title that should practically sell itself. That said, it’s fantastic to see Valve running TV commercials and having some real marketing weight behind its game. Nick remarked to some of us yesterday about the bigL4Dbillboards he was seeing, and how you never see that kind of high profile campaigning from Valve....

They’re gonna take you back to the past Double Dragonis back, I guess. Ignoring titles likeSuper Double Dragon,Double Dragon V, andDouble Dragon Neon, this game gets theDouble Dragon IVtitle and takes place afterDouble Dragon II. Whatever you think it should be called, it’s going to be available for PlayStation 4 and Steam on June 06, 2025. It’ll be 800 yen which is roughly seven US dollars. Double Dragon Neonwas neat modern realization of the series, and now that Arc System Works has taken the reigns one might think it would get some niceGuilty Gearstyle art or at least some sort of modern graphics, but they decided to go retro....

New Man’s Sky?

In an update on Hello Games’ blog, founder Sean Murray outlined a number of significant changes incoming with the game’s 1....

The hot news to come out of Croatia today is thatSerious Sam 3: BFEwill feature “crazy ass split screen.” Translated, that roughly means the PC version does up to four-person split screen in the cooperative campaign and multiplayer modes. One person gets to play via mouse and keyboard, and three friends can join in using gamepads. Apparently, you guys have been demanding this support on Facebook and the forums; thanks for complaining so we don’t have to....

Call it a sub-genre No one is indifferent to nostalgia, but people certainly can get riled up over branding. Even those with a soft spot for Sony’s signature mascots are vocally upset byPlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale’s similarities to Nintendo’sSuper Smash Bros. Funny enough, some beta players were even more upset that Sony’s four-player party brawler doesn’t play likeSuper Smash Bros. Maybe all of this confusion and animosity has something to do with detractors not being familiar with the party fighters that came before and afterSuper Smash Bros....

Getting the low down at GDC Bertil Hörberg is probably the only Swedish name I know. I can’t pronounce it to save my life, but it’s a name that’s been at the forefront of my mind when it comes to the games industry. Hörberg, if you are unaware, is the creator of theGunman Cliveseries. I was introduced to the first game because of a review right here onDestructoid, as well as its phenomenally low price point....
