Rumors are swirling around a possible new Doom reveal

The last game we got in theDoomseries was 2020’sEternal. A fine game it was as well (though I personally prefer the 2016 entry). Given that it’s only been four years then, one would hardly expect a new installment so soon. We know how long AAA titles take to develop in this climate. However, something may be on the horizon soon. Back in January of this year,ZeniMax Media registered a trademarkthat many interpreted as beingDoomrelated....

Rumortoid: Persona on PSP, according to Hong Kong games mag

You see,last summer I specifically asked Atlusif they’d consider bringing back some of the harder-to-find or unreleasedShin Megami Tenseigames. They gave me a pretty standard response along the lines of “hopefully,” but I saw right through that — they had to be brinnging one of the Persona games back from the dead. I saw that look in their eyes. I was hoping it would be the unreleased half ofPersona 2, but I’d be more than happy with a re-release of the original title too....

That creepy Emio game is actually a new Famicom Detective Club

About a week ago, Nintendodropped a teaserthat looked like it could have been ripped fromSilent Hill. It involved a person wearing a trenchcoat and a paper bag on their head, and there were some squeaky horror cuts. Our only clues were the video’s title, Emio, and the words “Smiling Man.” We receivedmore clarification today. The bad news is that it’s not a newEternal Darkness. The good news is that it’s a new entry in theFamicom Detective Club....

The Tomb Raider: The Angel Of Darkness Remaster will restore lots of cut content

The mad people at Saber might actually pull theAngel Of Darknessremaster off, as the studio has announced on theirofficial blogthat they’re going way beyond the addition of a coat of paint toTomb Raider’smost panned title. Angel Of Darkness restored cut features Kurtis gets fleshed out Kurtis Trent is one of the most baffling characters in gaming history.

This Monster Hunter: World mod removes Scoutflies

Pest control The monster-tracking Scoutflies inMonster Hunter: Worldcan be too straightforward for their own good, but they serve a purpose, and as long as they aren’t yanking my camera around, I think they’re fine. If you’re a returning player who doesn’t need or want the assists, yep, there’s a mod for that. You can probably envision a world without Scoutflies on your own, but here’s a visual aid from modderMHVuze. It’s a work-in-progress, so there are a few caveats....
