There’s been the usual slew of news items reminding us that tons of things in the industry are still a huge bummer. However, in this new batch of gaming news, the trend is that people are mad as hell and aren’t going to take it anymore!

Welcome to another week of gaming news! I haven’t played much over the past few weeks, but I will eventually write about Mask of the Rose, the visual novel entry into Failbetter’s extensive Fallen London universe. It’s lovely, if you like squid faces, Victorian manners, and flirting with everybody in sight.
But let’s move on to the gaming news! (more…)

The past couple of weeks have been chock full of back-to-back showcases and endless announcements about what’s next in tech and gaming. Honestly, it’s pretty exhausting to keep track of, and it all comes in light of the fact that there’s very little hope that E3 will ever return to its former glory. With publishers and developers taking it into their own hands to show off their stuff, there’s no rest for the weary when it comes to finishing off that ever-growing games library!
…I’m talking about myself, but anyway: here’s the news. (more…)

Hello and welcome to another Wednesday! I have been playing a game for review purposes, so I’m not going to talk about it! I also made very little progress in Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments since my last go-around on GYGO, which is honestly kind of sad. I have roped my husband into watching Dimension 20’s “A Court of Fey and Flowers,” however, and I am pleased to tell you all that I would still lay down my life for Andhera.
Anyway, let’s talk about gaming news. (more…)

It’s another week of Get Your Game On news, where announcements for more games sadly come accompanied by more unsavory industry nonsense! (more…)

Welcome to Wednesday! I’ve been dabbling at being a consulting detective in Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments. It’s a lot of fun, but phew, y’all weren’t joking about how bad that arm wrestling minigame is. It does a great job overall of making me feel briefly smarter than Sherlock Holmes (bro, how did not not immediately conclude that the train wasn’t a real train at all? Trains are super loud!) before revealing that while I may have been right about one thing, I was super, super wrong about the rest—a great feeling for a mystery game.
Anyway, here’s what’s been happening in gaming news! (more…)
