The original Cities: Skylines just got a politics mod, giving you a new way to paint the map

Image
While the second Cities: Skylines game is slowly recovering following the departure of its creators, the original game is more than thriving due to its incredibly talented and active modding community. Now, that game received a major new fan-made mod called Politics & Elections that does exactly as its name implies. The mod enables your citizens, and may there be many of them in every town you make, to vote in relatively free elections to support parties that eventually merge into coalitions. These coalitions and political powerhouses then force certain policy changes that you'll have to make, with the citizens themselves dynamically reacting to their own circumstances. If you raise taxes too high, don't be surprised if a liberal political movement gains power and makes you reduce it. Polluting the air too much? The people want those green policies enacted ASAP. You get the point. Parties are fully customizable, so you can roleplay to your heart's content o...

Nintendo just shadow-dropped a Star Fox showcase to finally announce a new game in the franchise

Image
Nintendo took to the skies today with a surprise Direct to showcase Star Fox announcements 10 minutes before they aired. The Star Fox Direct began promptly at 5pm CT, shocking everyone watching along with the out-of-nowhere surprise presentation. Earlier this year, leaks suggested a comeback for the long-dormant franchise, and it appears they were correct. Nintendo turned it into a big thing, too, with Miyamoto posting an announcement at 4:50pm CT. https://www.youtube.com/live/ePZeyh5q9R8 Star Fox made his triumphant return to screens last month in the Super Mario Galaxy Movie, which now looks a lot like a soft-launch for the series' revival, which is centered around a new Switch 2 game simply called Star Fox , a remake of Star Fox 64. But the excitement quickly changed to bewilderment once the gameplay footage began, showing some disturbingly realistic-looking designs for the characters like Fox, Falco, and Slippy Toad, which makes for a kind of awkward debu...

Assassin’s Creed didn’t work out in movies, so Ubisoft is bringing the franchise to the stage instead

Image
Assassin's Creed hasn't been doing the best these last few years. With games that failed to live up to the golden standards set by their predecessors, the franchise has entered a sort of limbo where every release tied to it is met with skepticism rather than excitement. A few years ago, while the series was still living off its prime, Ubisoft tried to pivot into moviemaking. The end result wasn't great, nor did the box office see it perform as well as it should, and so that was the end of that story, too. But now, Ubisoft wants to bring Assassin's Creed to the stage. Heredis: Echoes of the Past will see the franchise as a basis of a stage production that, as Rock Paper Shotgun writes , will be marked by "acrobatics, urban parkour, choreographed combat, and physical feats within large-scale immersive visual environments." It's not adapting any game per se, but will rather portray various historical epochs, much as the franchise itself has done ...
