Okay, so Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition totally brings back the classic RTS game I used to love, but now it looks *amazing*. They’ve seriously upgraded the graphics to 4K and the music sounds fantastic. It includes everything – all the old expansions like ‘Lords of the West’, ‘Dynasties of India’, and ‘Dawn of the Dukes’ are all here. I’m going to break down how it plays, how well it runs, and whether it’s worth picking up – honestly, if you’re into RTS games, or even just curious, you *need* to check this out. It’s great for old fans like me, but also super accessible for anyone new to the genre.
The *Onimusha* series was most popular in the early 2000s, with four main games and several spin-offs released between 2001 and 2006. After that, it seemed like Capcom, the publisher and developer, had forgotten about it. However, a remastered version of *Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny* came out in May and excited fans, both old and new. This followed an announcement in 2024 that a new *Onimusha* game is in development and scheduled for release in 2026, signaling a major revival for the series.
Microsoft usually announces which games are leaving its subscription service every two weeks, along with the new games coming to the service. On September 16th, they announced that four games will be removed at the end of the month: *Ninja Gaiden: Sigma*, *Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2*, *Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge*, and *Terra Invicta*.
Any pirate story almost certainly includes Davy Jones, a famous and enigmatic figure from pirate lore. While long considered a legend, the manga *One Piece* recently confirmed that Davy Jones was actually a historical person. For some time, it was debated whether he was a real pirate or simply a myth that grew over the years.
It’s no surprise that Hideo Kojima’s new game, currently known as *Physint*, is generating a lot of excitement among gamers. Very little is known about the game itself, but a recent poster revealed at Kojima’s anniversary event offered a first glimpse. The poster shows a person in technical clothing holding a submachine gun, set in a city or industrial environment, with the tagline “Here Comes the Feeling.” It also confirmed that *Physint* is just a placeholder title and will likely be changed before the game is released. While the poster is visually striking and interesting, it hints at a deeper complexity than it initially appears.
Now, that smarty-pants analyst Axel Adler’s been jawin’ about the quarterly correlation ‘tween Bitcoin and Gold. Gold’s been ridin’ high, like a cowboy on a buckin’ bronco, while BTC’s been laggin’ behind like a turtle at a rabbit race. 🏇 Gold’s the belle of the ball, while BTC’s sittin’ in the corner, nursin’ its punch. Adler says it’s a “Risk-Off” signal, but I say it’s just Gold hoggin’ the spotlight. Traditional safe havens are suckin’ up capital like a vacuum cleaner at a dust convention, leavin’ BTC to twiddle its thumbs and consolidate.
Man, I’ve been waiting for *Pragmata* forever! It was first shown off way back in 2020, and I was so hyped. The game follows Hugh and Diana, these characters with cybernetic upgrades, as they try to break out of a space station overrun with killer robots. It was supposed to come out in 2022, but it kept getting delayed. At one point last year, it looked like the game was cancelled completely! Luckily, they announced earlier this year that it’s *finally* coming in 2026. It’s been a long wait, but I’m still really excited.
