Opinion: It Took Me Nearly 20 Years To Fall Into Mario Galaxy's Orbit
Just one click away. The Launch Stars in Super Mario Galaxy are pure cinema, from that spinning wind-up with the quick arpeggio to that compressed pause before a cannon-blast hurl into an arc unknown. And that camera work! As you trace an unseen thread through space, leaving a gleaming contrail of light and delight before the zoom-out to best catch that perfect 10 landing. Keep your bullet times and your smash cuts: this is the music of movement, and it hasn’t got old. Read the full article on nintendolife.com

Nordic Game 2026 was full of smiles, but they hid a very tough reality | Opinion
The indie conference Nordic Game returned to Malmö this week, and although the event naturally has a big focus on Scandinavian developers, there was a multinational flavour to the event booths. Germany, Ukraine, and Moldova were among the countries represented on the show floor, and in fact the Moldovan game Lootbound scooped the People's Choice Award , which is voted for by conference attendees. But my personal highlight was DDoD , a roguelike shooter from Ukrainian developer The Future Entertainment Company. I came for the giant mutant snails, but stayed for the tense, loot-based gameplay in a huge industrial wasteland, which felt like a tantalising cross between Stalker and Diablo. Read more

"They have the biggest bullsh*t detectors on the planet": How the unlikely EVE Online x Google DeepMind AI partnership landed with players
The impact of generative AI upon PC gaming has proven controversial, which is my balanced journalist way of saying it’s been horrible. Players are widely repulsed by genAI material , developers and even some publishers are increasingly wary of its temptations, and in a rush to build the requisite infrastructure, component shortages have ravaged the hardware market . Nonetheless, EVE Online devs Fenris Creations – formerly CCP Games – have become dead keen on robot brains, and what they might be might be able to think up for EVE itself. Earlier this month, a newly independent Fenris announced a "research partnership" with Google DeepMind , the search giant’s AI research division, that would see DeepMind take a minority stake in the company while training its AI agents on a separate, offline version of the longstanding space MMO. Days later, Fenris CEO Hilmar Veigar Pétursson sat onstage with DeepMind co-founder Adrian Bolton at the annual EVE FanFest conference to discuss the partnership, in a presentation that left the concrete plans of what it means for EVE still broadly vague – yet seemingly against the run of wider sentiment, escaped any significant backlash from the game’s historically outspoken playerbase.
