Out this week for PS4 and Vita, the follow-up for Roll7's sharply-realized skating sidescroller improves just about everything that the first OlliOlli did. The visual approach is smoother and slicker, looking more like a playable micro-sized cartoon than a retro-pixel homage. It's faster, too, with sections that…

Wondering the same thing myself. How much do we chalk up to age and how much to art design? Clearly the wookies look way different in Rebels, for example, but it looks like she lost a fair amount of forehead. Shrug.

Except it's a diamond the same color as the poop. And you have to dive 20 meters down without gear to find it.

Came here to say the same thing. Of course, David Fincher's quote comes to mind: "I always thought of 'Star Wars' as the story of two slaves [C-3PO and R2-D2] who go from owner to owner, witnessing their masters' folly, the ultimate folly of man..."

If you insist...

I love how this is discovered just after the New 3DS is released. Cruel.

*thousand-yard stare*

I'm forever soured on this character after Adam Baldwin's absolute dickishness.

I'd love to know the calculus that goes on behind the scenes at Sony with incidents like this. Whose butt is on the line? At what point do they remove the review embargo or even ship the game early? I'm sure they have PR people on both sides, some arguing "let's release the game digitally now and say 'find out for…

Of note: Amazon has all 5 Genesis classics packs for Steam (51 games total) for $2.63. Not each — that's the price for all 5. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AEV8HI2/

That was a thing of beauty. Can you imagine if he had died half a second sooner?

Guys, is it really so hard to just be a little more generous with your Virtual Console? It's like you're begging us to keep using emulators.

Agreed. Which is so weird given how much control you were given in Halo—pick the skulls, maps, & modes you want.

Today, the gaming website Eurogamer announced plans to ditch review scores, joining outlets like Kotaku and Rock Paper Shotgun in Fighting The Good Fight against the arbitrary and meaningless quantification of video game quality.

Yo, its not wrong for them to report on this story. In fact, it's their job as journalists to correct misinformation. Hell, Kotaku has a tough row to hoe on any GamerGate story, as they're target no. 1 amongst gaming websites. Any story necessarily entails a somewhat defensive stance, and few of GGers' typical…

These guys were the best. They were my first gaming news source; without them I wouldn't have played a fraction of the games I have, and their recent podcasts & send-off during their Smash Bros. stream a few hours ago were heartbreaking. What was your relationship with them like? Any anecdotes of swapping war stories…

There is no iTouch. There's the iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad.

Do we have any info on how to do this? The video just seems to be a proof of concept. I'm on board for a little fun hacking like this.
