Star Citizen's new video roundup features promo ships, alien language & new engine tech
Star Citizen continues to be one of the largest, strangest anomalies in the history of videogames. During a time where few publishers believed 'space games' were even viable, this game became a crowdfunded juggernaut, roping in a budget comparable to the biggest AAA games ever made.

Fantasy Flight

Massive tabletop game studio Fantasy Flight announce a dedicated videogame division

Wolfenstein 2

Here’s how Wolfenstein 2 censored that Hitler scene for the German release

eSport

Olympic committee lays out expectations for esports’ inclusion
The International Olympic Committee formally laid down its expectations of esports if they’re ever to be included in the Olympic games.
