With a remaster around the corner and the memory of the more slap-dash port that was Final Fantasy 9, fan fears over Final Fantasy 8 being another rushed port to newer consoles are justified, especially in the audio department. Well fret not, because Final Fantasy 8 Remastered is sticking to the superb PSX source files.

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is shaping up nicely so far. Jon Berenthal looks like a terrific antagonist, the gameplay has a harder edge to it and the Auroa Islands peninsula looks massively more interesting than the lush jungles of Bolivia. See for yourself in footage that we've brought back from E3.

Throw in some character design that just looks odd, a focus on the most bankable characters of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and voice acting that sounds like a case of going through the motions, and it’s unclear what kind of game Marvel’s Avengers wants to be. Fortunately, there’s still plenty of time to make some changes.

There are still those who are willing to get up at the crack of dusk and boot up their console to find him for you. People who’ll risk digital life and limb to let you know if Xur is selling a treasure or rubbish. I just so happen to be one of those people. Maybe you’re stuck at work and can only log in later tonight. In that case: Where is Xur?

Over on the Bungie blog, the Destiny 2 developer detailed how September’s shift to a free to play model with premium content will work for players new and old.

One thing you won’t be seeing in Fallen Order? Legions of defeated Stormtroopers lying about the place, looking for lost limbs and swearing revenge on the Jedi who just robbed them of their ability to spit out sick licks on a guitar. While Star Wars films may be filled with dismemberment scenes a’plenty, Cal Kestis will leave his foes in one piece for the duration of the game. Most of the time, that is.

In video games, space travel is about as dangerous as a trip to the supermarket. A short trip to Mars in a personal jet keeps you safe from harm, with nary a hazard in your way as you jet down to mysterious new planets in the cosmos. Bethesda wants to change that approach somewhat with Starfield, and remind players that space is filled with all manner of galactic danger before you even set foot on a new world.

Twenty years later, and Crash Team Racing is back on the trac, ready to kick some marsupial butt and leave the competition in its dust. Alessandro recently had a chance to take the game for a few laps, and believe it or not…He’s actually good at this game.
