Sony’s doubling down on their games portfolio with more live-service titles and a steady stream of major single-player games starting in 2025. Let’s talk about what this means for PlayStation and whether it will work out for them!
Sony has announced that they are closing Concord developer Firewalk Studios, just a year and a half after acquiring the studio in April 2023.
Insomniac Games has confirmed that Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 will not receive any additional story DLC, which has angered many fans. Is it such a bad thing that there won’t be any DLC for the game though? Let’s talk about why I think it’s a totally fine decision.
Kingdom Hearts is a special series to me. Not only has it played a key role in molding me into the person I am today, but it’s also been a constant source of comfort for me throughout my life. With that in mind, I decided to go back to six key games from the franchise, some of which I haven’t played in a long time, in a series I call Revisiting Kingdom Hearts to see what I think of them in the year 2024. Have my feelings changed about each game over the years? Am I able to take away anything new from them that I didn’t before? How does any one game compare to the rest of the series? These are the kinds of questions I’ll be asking myself as I work my way through the franchise. In part five of this series, I’ll be talking about Dream Drop Distance, and my newfound love for this underrated game.
