After a year of live service flops how is it that Marvel Rivals has become such a massive hit? GameCentral talks to the game’s director to find out. Marvel Rivals has been a huge success since it was released in early December. The Overwatch-esque hero shooter has carved out a place for itself in the crowded world of live service games and the initial signs right now suggest that it will have staying power.

The high cost of switchingThere seems a good chance the Nintendo Switch 2 is going to be unveiled this week, so let’s ask the most important question. Not about the hardware or the software but the one thing that can make or break a sale: the price. The original Switch launched at £279.99 but I think it’s obvious this will be more, thanks to inflation…

Justifying voting her to be unmasked, Jonathan Ross said the judges were pretty ‘certain’ they knew who it was and were simply ‘desperate’ to see if they were right. The reasoning wasn’t enough for Macy, who left…

(Ubisoft) The Monday letters page wants to see Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth on Nintendo Switch 2, as one reader looks forward to a Resident Evil Code: Veronica remake. Smaller generationAs we wait for the Nintendo Switch 2 and the start of a new generation I like the talk from various people, including publishers and fans, that video games have just got too big.

Why I think Rockstar Games has the best video game villains – Reader’s Feature A reader complains that video game villains lack depth and proper reasons to hate them, while praising the bad guys in Rockstar’s GTA 4: The Lost And Damned. I don’t think video game villains hit as hard they should. Many of them appear to be evil for the sake of being evil and to give the protagonist an almighty foe to face off with, come the endgame. The best antagonists are irredeemable pieces of excrement, who you longingly wish to shut up and vanquish from…

I have to admit: I already feel the Nintendo Switch 2 is a let-down – Reader’s Feature A reader is concerned at the Nintendo Switch 2 leaks so far and worries that Nintendo will be forced to play things safe in the new generation. There have been so many Switch 2 leaks this week that I don’t think anyone can be in any doubt that we already know what the console looks like. It’s got so bad that even Nintendo has talked about it, although without saying whether the leaks are real or not. I think it’s pretty clear…

The stars who were meant to be Hollywood’s next leading man There are several actors pegged to be Hollywood’s next big thing but just sadly never quite made it.
