Batman- Arkham Trilogy pays tribute to the late Kevin Conroy-
For a lot of people, including myself, Kevin Conroy was the Batman. A lot of you might’ve known him from the Arkham Trilogy—I myself was first introduced to him via Justice League: Unlimited. He was the voice of Batman for over three decades before he died after a short battle with cancer in November last year, age 66.
As spotted by Eurogamer, a tribute has been added to the Batman: Arkham Trilogy, though it’s only presently confirmed to be on the Nintendo Switch version. Gamingbible editor Ewan Moore posted a screenshot of the tribute on Twitter, which reads: “In memory of Kevin Conroy.”
The Switch port (produced by studio Turn Me Up) has received widespread criticism for performance problems that range, as a Digital Foundry deep-dive states, from “unexpecte…
Blizzard once again bans Overwatch 2 ‘sexual harassment simulator,’ but not before it reappeared in the popular list-
Content warning: This news story includes descriptions of sexual assault.
A user-created Overwatch 2 mode that simulates sexual assault reappeared in the game’s custom game browser, and for some, showed up as one of the most popular modes.
I verified that the unique code to play the mode was working yesterday and contacted Blizzard. The code no longer works as of today, but I haven’t heard back from Blizzard about what, if anything, it plans to do to prevent the mode from returning to Overwatch.
“Sexual harassment simulator,” which is an updated version of the mode players found in October, tasks one player with impregnating the female heroes of Overwatch 2. As Cassidy, one player is instructed to knock heroes like Mercy to the ground and repeatedly crou…

Craft-your-own-guns shooter United 1944 is having a three-day playtest that’s live right now-
The WW2 shooter United 1944 struck me as a potentially interesting twist on the genre when I first heard about it back in March. Shooting enemies and capturing control points are mixed with exploration, scavenging, and crafting: You start the game “literally with nothing,” and must dig up resources and plans so you can assemble weapons, fortifications, traps, and other items that will enable you to start fighting in earnest.
This weekend, you can see how all of that comes together yourself in an open playtest that’s now underway. Just pop around to Steam, click the “request access” button, and (hopefully) you’ll be off—developer Novarama said that requesting access doesn’t guarantee you’ll get in, but I got access right away.
The playtest will include an all-new map se…
Epic’s antitrust case against Apple looks dead in the water-
Apple has emerged largely victorious in the latest round of a legal battle with Epic Games, which focuses on antitrust laws and the way the App Store is run. Epic’s suit, sparked by various shenanigans around the hugely popular Fortnite, says that Apple’s marketplace violates federal law by banning third parties from using their own payment platforms on the operating system: That is, it’s a monopoly.
The suit began in 2020 after Epic updated Fortnite on iOS with a payment workaround, which would bypass Apple’s usual 30% cut. In response, Apple promptly banned the app. Essentially this is all about the cut the platform-holder is taking from third party developers, and whether those developers should have the right to implement their own payment systems. The 2021 judgement in the ca…
Get The Talos Principle, The Witness, Superliminal, and other ‘mind-bending masterpieces’ for just $10-
I’m a big fan of Croteam’s 2014 puzzle game The Talos Principle, and so I think the new Mind-Bending Masterpieces collection at Humble Bundle is well worth some attention. It includes The Talos Principle and an impressive collection of other hit puzzle games including The Witness and Superliminal for just $10.
The Talos Principle is set in humanity’s far future, except humanity has wiped itself out and all that remains are the robots we left behind to carry on our legacy. First, though, they must undergo a gauntlet of puzzles, the idea being that “play” is a universal element of the human experience, all while learning about the last days of organic human life on Earth and hopefully absorbing the lessons therein.
It’s a very clever way to tie together an otherwise disparate …
A literal child and her robot dad are crushing some of Honkai- Star Rail’s toughest fights-
One of Honkai: Star Rail’s most powerful characters is a literal child. She’s so strong, in fact, that a few brave players found out she can solo some of the turn-based RPG’s hardest battles.
Star Rail, much like Genshin Impact, expects you to have a team of four characters when you enter each fight. Enemies are weak to certain elements, like fire or ice, and you’re supposed to create a team of characters who attack with the same type of damage. But Clara, a young girl with a robot dad, doesn’t have to play by those rules.
A few brave players have taken on Star Rail’s difficult roguelike mode, called the Simulated Universe, using only Clara. In this mode, you take on increasingly high-level enemies and gain buffs when you beat them. Clara’s high survivability and unparallele…
