People will attempt to do all kinds of weird calculus to try and justify the relative value of a game purchase, but there’s ultimately no hours-played-to-enjoyment-received ratio. There’s no way to put a dollar value on experiences as varied and personal as video games....

Japanese Players Have Changed Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's Name To Make It Easier

Summary For those of us who speak English,Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’sname is… well… Obscure. The ‘Expedition 33’ part makes perfect sense—it’s the story of the ‘Expedition 33’ team from the France-inspired island of Lumière. However, the Clair Obscur part has raised questions (it comes from the French word chiaroscuro, for those wondering, an art style that focuses on the juxtaposition of light and dark). It seems like us English-speaking folk aren’t the only ones having problems with its name, though, as those in Japan are struggling so much that they’ve affectionately given it a name that’s much easier to pronounce....

Mario Kart World's Knockout Mode Could Be A Great Esport

If I’m being totally honest, I don’tloveMario Kart. I’ve owned every entry in the series and played the hell out of all of them, but it’s not the kind of game I return to all the time.

I got to playMario Kart Worldat the Nintendo Switch 2 Experience in Los Angeles last week, and after just an hour behind the wheel, I saw something I’ve never seen in Mario Kart before....

Oh, they’re makinga lotof money. But with ballooning development budgets and the lever on the layoff machine broken at ‘Maximum Warp’, making video games often seems more like something people do on their way to a more boring career rather than a permanent forever home....
