The New Gundam Game Has A Collector’s Edition Just For Gunpla Sickos Like Me

Gundam Rogue Orbit is a break from tradition for Bandai Namco, as new entries in the franchise typically debut as an anime series first, then as a line of collectible model kits.

If you're a Gundam fan, fret not, because at least one part of the traditional Gundam experience is being kept intact if you buy the $160 Rogue Orbit collector's edition. Gundam Rogue Orbit...

A day of what should be celebrations for many, I'm sure, instead a day of "oh, huh, this isn't running so well on PC, is it?" This is fairly common for big releases these days, but the devs do come with some temporary suggestions for the variety of issues they're aware of.

Onimusha: Way Of The Sword Is Best When It's Silly, And Despite Some Gloomy Open World Slogging, Sometimes Even Remembers It

Rock Paper Shotgun's James Archer reports that Capcom's Onimusha: Way of the Sword is a well-crafted action-adventure game that shines brightest during its comedic moments. However, its overall pacing and tone are weighed down by a semi-open world structure, frequent cutscenes, and a tendency to abandon its initial lighthearted energy in favor of gloomy exploration and standard swordplay.

A Long-Dormant Blizzard Franchise Could Be Coming To Dungeons And Dragons

Dungeons & Dragons fans will soon be exploring the dangerous lands of Azeroth, as World of Warcraft is coming to the tabletop game .
