Tekken director Katsuhiro Harada reckons those pesky young’uns don’t like fighting games as much as people his own age because, unlike team-based games, there’s nobody else to point the finger at when you lose. Chatting with PlayStation’s Shuhei Yoshida on the AIAS Game Maker’s Notebook podcast, Harada said that the attitude towards one-on-one clashes feels…

RSS Feed | Apple Podcasts | Spotify  Hiya PC gamers, welcome back to the PC Gamer Chat Log podcast! Hope everyone’s week is going well. I’ve been doing a lot of decluttering lately, which means I’ve been doing an awful lot of staring at nostalgic possessions. Old teddy bears, school books and photographs have had…

RSS Feed | Apple Podcasts | Spotify  Hey there PC gamers, welcome to this week’s episode of the PC Gamer Chat Log podcast! I hope you’ve all had a fantastic week so far, whether you’ve been climbing up a cyclops in Dragon’s Dogma 2, or having your pawn go around telling everyone you’re shagging people…

Final Fantasy 14 has a lot of neat nods and callbacks to the rest of the series. From the Final Fantasy 3-inspired Crystal Tower raid series to crossover events with entries like Final Fantasy 13 and 15, the MMO serves as a great homage to Square Enix’s library of RPG classics. Upcoming expansion Dawntrail is…

Final Fantasy 14 is getting to be a mighty long game. With one base game, four expansions and a fifth one on the way, I don’t think it’s too out there to reckon that you’d be spending a good 300 – 400 hours ploughing through the story alone.  That can be a big roadblock for…

RSS Feed | Apple Podcasts | Spotify  Wassup PC gamers, welcome back to the PC Gamer Chat Log podcast. I hope your week has been good so far. It’s well and truly flu season for me, and I’m sick for the second time in a month which has cut my gaming time pretty drastically. How…
