The Return of Perfect Dark

At The Game Awards last night we got a glimpse of a 'Rare' treat, a new Perfect Dark game.  Perfect Dark was a game released on N64 in 2000 and developed by Rare.  Yes, the same Rare that did Goldeneye 007.  Perfect Dark took the Goldeneye 007 formula and refined it to become its spiritual successor.  Even though it didn't reach the popularity of Goldeneye 007, it became a classic in its own right.  Perfect Dark was a revolution back in the day because it had a female lead character, which was a rare thing indeed. "Good Day, Miss Dark" The second and final new game (until now) for the series was Perfect Dark Zero which was released exclusively on the Xbox 360 in 2005. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S--lFTxAVs8 It is unclear whether this is a remake or a soft reboot, one can only a...

Metal Gear Solid Remake – Are We Going Back To Shadow Moses?

Over the last couple of days, there is a rumour doing the rounds that Metal Gear Solid is getting a remake.  Fans, myself included have been calling for this for years.  And now, it is looking like a possibility more than ever.  As with all leaks and rumours, they must be taken with a pinch of salt.  This one, maybe more than a pinch.  The leaker is also the same who let the cat out of the bag about God Of War: Ragnarok ahead of its reveal. It has been said that Mark Cerny, lead designer for the Playstation 5 is involved with the production, yet neither Sony, Konami or Bluepoint have neither confirmed nor denied that.  Bluepoint Games are said to be handling developer duties and have been for the last 3 years, which makes complete sense.  After all, they made the Metal Gear Solid HD Rem...

ROCKFISH Games Delays EVERSPACE 2 Early Access Launch to January 2021

ROCKFISH Games has announced in their latest Kickstarter update that the Steam Early Access launch of their highly anticipated upcoming space looter shooter EVERSPACE 2 is being delayed to January. From the CEO "Porting the original EVERSPACE to last-gen consoles was quite a challenge for us back in the day, so we can only imagine what a challenge it must be to bring a massive title like Cyberpunk 2077 to Xbox One and PlayStation 4, Unfortunately, this is also a major blow for any other game that was scheduled during that week. We know from our community that there is quite an audience overlap between the two titles, so we decided to get out of the way and push back our release to January. We are aware that EVERSPACE 2 fans will be unhappy, but competing with the arguably most antici...
