Pokémon, PS2, Dreamcast, and Joypolis: VGHF Archive Features 300 Photos of '00s Japan's Gaming Events
When you had to make those 24 exposures count. Gather round, kids, and I'll tell you a tale. A tale of gaming events where you weren't packed in like sardines, a tale of the future of the industry: Sega's Dreamcast, and a tale of photographic limitations where you had a limited number of shots, no filters, and had to wait two weeks to get your pictures back, only to find you had your finger over the viewfinder the whole time. Actually... instead of listening to me, you should probably just look through this great collection of photographs, recently archived by the Video Game History Foundation (VGHF) . Taken by travelling games journo Colin Williamson , the collection of over 300+ photos documents the Japanese gaming conventions of the late-'90s and early-'00s - a record of our favourite pastime at the dawn of a new millennium.

BioWare's cancelled Mass Effect game would've learned from Baldur's Gate 3 and The Witcher to deliver "a level of autonomy and choice that no other game has"

"It just seemed arbitrary, and not very smart": EA was never a responsible owner for Bioware, but the developer never seemed to learn from their mistakes
19 years after buying Bioware, Electronic Arts have closed the veteran RPG developer . But as saddening as this is, bringing an end to series such as Dragon Age and Mass Effect , EA have never had an easy relationship with the studio. Looking through old interviews with developers who worked across Baldur's Gate , Neverwinter Nights , Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic , Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and Anthem, the corporation immediately changed the atmosphere of the studio and never seemed to understand what exactly they had bought, or even why. However, another thread of the conversations is that from project to project, Bioware repeated the same mistakes, getting years into projects before working out what they were trying to make. Sometimes they could pull an exceptional game out of this mess, but other times it led to costly missteps like Anthem. Read more
