Street Fighter V temporarily delisted and online functions turned off due to issues caused by last week's PHP security flaw
Though Street Fighter 6 has been the most popular fighting game in the world for three years running, there are still dedicated soldiers playing Street Fighter V right now. Be that due to its much larger character roster (thanks to many more years of updates, obviously, but I do personally miss G), its unique V-Skill and V-Trigger mechanics, or people just not liking Drive Rush or throw loops in 6, the playerbase is still very much there. Unfortunately, that playerbase is currently facing the consequences of the PHP programming language vulnerability and subsequent security-led shutdowns across online services from the last week onwards, as Street Fighter V's online functionality has been shut down until it can be ensured to be secure. It's also been temporarily delisted, effectively taking it off sale, from Steam. Read more

Yet beneath it flowed a cobalt river, buried under its infrastructure. A mark of its heritage awaiting rediscovery." Read the full article on timeextension.com
Virtue and a Sledgehammer review – a haunting sci-fi drama about breaking walls, AI faces, and your heart
It’s been well over a week since my final swing of Virtue and a Sledgehammer ’s righteous whacking stick, and I’m still finding it difficult to shift the game from my thoughtspace. Having tempted me in with promises of cathartic, base-instinct vengeance against a town of roboticised arseholes, it’s since had me picking through the rubble of my own demolition spree, not so much looking for meaning as trying to parse the abundance of it. I’d gladly invite you to join me in the wreckage. Read more
"Every piece is unified": Dark Messiah of Might and Magic returns with co-op, an Adventure mode, a level generator and New Game+ in the 64-bit Community Edition

Revisiting Ecstatica - the pioneering survival horror that used its fancy ellipsoid graphics tech to fill its world with dongs
There's a well-known phenomena in video games development known as time-to-penis. It's a somewhat tongue-in-cheek measurement of the time players, when given an exciting suite of new customisation tools, will take to create the first inevitable in-game dong. Ecstatica sort of implies it works the other way round too. That developers - when giddy with a new tech toy - can't always help themselves either. But maybe I'm getting a little ahead of myself.
