The short film adaptation of Papers, Please is out now, and it’s free to watch. See it on YouTube or Steam, either way, it’s free. The YouTube version of this Russian-language film offers subtitles in 22 languages, which is an artful statement itself. All of that is captured in this adaptation, written by Nikita Ordynskiy, Liliya Tkach and Pope, produced by Tkach and directed by Ordynskiy. Reordering the events of Papers, Please the film would probably produce a different ending.

Either way, Facebook showed and then pulled Bullet Train, which has been an Epic Games proof-of-concept VR demonstration for about three years, from a booth it was staffing at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

The YouTube arm of the “independent media” learned the truth about how it got there, and it turned out that they were really just Uber drivers, not captains of industry. So how are YouTubers like Uber drivers? If you’re a smaller creator, you need to stop looking at ridiculously popular YouTubers for tips on what to do when starting out — instead, start looking at Uber drivers. The difference between being a YouTuber and being an Uber driver is that Uber drivers have a limit on the money they ca

“Like the PlayStation Network, my Twitter account has provided a free online service to gamers for many years. But just like the PlayStation Network, I have decided to change that,” wrote Fake Kaz Hirai on Twitter. This way seem like a strange turn for a joke account, whose user built their platform by tossing witty barbs at ex-Sony CEO Kaz Hirai. “If you have enjoyed my Twitter account over the years, I would really appreciate if you donated to SpecialEffect,” wrote Fake Kaz Hirai on their Just

So when I laid hands on Brass Tactics in the lead up to last year’s E3, I was enthusiastic about its prospects. Here was a real-time strategy game, built for virtual reality, that was custom made to look like a tabletop miniatures game. Brass Tactics is exclusive to the Oculus Rift, and requires the use of Touch controllers. Overall, I think that Brass Tactics is a great foundation for Hidden Path in the VR space. Something like Brass Tactics, but applied to Lord of the Rings or Warhammer, could

A new update to Nintendo’s website now allows users to leave customer reviews of specific Switch games. People are allowed to leave reviews after signing into their Nintendo Account. Unlike traditional review pages on websites like Best Buy or Amazon, Nintendo’s review section gets a little more personal. The publisher allowed game recommendations for Wii titles, too, but this is the first time official reviews have been allowed on the site for the Switch. People can leave reviews for games — th

Konami’s Metal Gear Survive quickly hits players with a reason to pay extra money on top of the game’s $39.99 asking price by restricting the number of character save slots. And it’s not the only questionable Metal Gear Survive microtransaction either. Purchasing additional character save slots in Metal Gear Survive requires spending SV Coins, the game’s unique currency. SV Coins can be spent on other things in Metal Gear Survive, like character emotes and boosts. Dedicated Metal Gear fans will

Among those incidents, writer, editor and professor Roxane Gay, known for her eloquence and outspokenness on issues of feminism, race and queer identity, tweeted that she was available for Whedon’s vacated position.

Duncan Jones looks at his experience directing 2016’s Warcraft as an important learning lesson, even though he’s still calling the situation a “political minefield” two years later. Jones is currently promoting his new Netflix movie, Mute, and spoke to SyFy about his career as a filmmaker. He talked briefly about Warcraft, a movie that did incredibly well overseas at the box office but was met with less enthusiasm from critics. “I think a lot of the rewriting in that, over the course of making t

“X-Men: Grand Design is more of a remix of the first 30 years of X-Men comics than a simple retelling,” he says. This creates a high barrier to entry, which Grand Design is hoping to bring down. “There’s never been a point where I could really share an X-Men comic with somebody in my life who is interested in why I have all of these things,” Piskor says. He’s in charge of every single part of X-Men Grand Design. This means the following chapters will cover some of the X-Men’s most iconic and bel

A new teaser from the official Overwatch Twitter account was released, showing us a Declassified Report from the days of Overwatch. The only new piece of information is the name Emre Sarioglu. A Private First Class who served under Overwatch could be a new Hero, and it’s almost time for 27 to show themselves. We don’t know who he is. We don’t know that this guy is Emre, and we don’t know that Emre is Hero 27… but this is a very interesting hint, especially because a similar Declassified teaser

America’s biggest distributor of print comics will release an online preorder system for comics readers — a change with big potential for the industry. Diamond Comics Distributors promises that the service, called Pullbox, will allow readers to pre-order their own comics through Diamond and pick them up at their local comic shop. One of the biggest hurdles to getting new readers to buy monthly comics is the act of buying monthly comics itself, complicated by Diamond Comics Distributor’s monopoli
