Why Genesis, and not Darksiders 4? Because numbers in titles are so passe. Why not just a sequel? Because this one is not only a prequel, but a different gaming genre as well. Instead of being a TPP action game, Genesis is a Diablo-esque isometric hack’n’slash. The game will play pretty much like Diablo, with exploration, loot and combat, combat, combat and more combat. Genesis is being made by Airship Syndicate, a somewhat obscure studio composed partly of the people who made the first Darksiders game. Sounds good.Game’s trailer can be watched ...

Joe and Anthony Russo, makers of Avengers: Endgame, are now working on a Netflix animated show. Titled Magic: The Gathering, it is based on a relatively popular fantasy-themed card game. Very little is known about the show: it has been advertised as ”expanding on the stories of the Planeswalkers” (factions within the card game) and ”contending with stakes larger than any one world can hold”. Cool, I guess, especially since Russo brothers themselves apparently are MTG fans. If true, this means that they will understand the ”feel” of the universe, which in ...

British auction house Christie’s has recently sold a pretty rare item, a rara avis among electronics, namely the Apple I PC. Made in the 1970’s, Apple I was one of the first PC devices ever relased. Not only is it difficult to find one nowadays, but this particular unit has been well taken care of by its previous owner, who put it neatly into a leather suitcase (Apple I has been released without any sort of casing). Along with the PC itself, the device has been sold with an old SWTPC PR-40 printer, equally old manual and nearly as old copies of Apple I-related magazines. The ...
