Star Wars Episode I Jedi Power Battles review

System: Switch
Release date: January 23, 2025
Developer: Aspyr
Publisher: Aspyr

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, many of the long-standing franchises that now dominate the industry were either still in their infancy, or hadn’t even been conceived yet. Consequently, there was significantly less choice for the young gamer when compared to modern times. But one thing we did not suffer from a lack of, and which filled that empty void, was movie tie-ins. With the release of The Phantom Menace, there were few franchises as ripe for exploitation on this front as Star Wars, and over the course of the mid-to-late-2000s we were bombarded with video game adaptations and spin-offs of the still highly divisive prequel trilogy. Star Wars: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles is an unfortunate example of the less civilized part of that age.

Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered update

Aspyr came out with the first update for Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered this week, and we have the patch notes.

The update makes a number of small improvements like the ability to press pause while watching the Bonus Materials movies. A bunch of bugs have also been fixed in both games.

For a full overview of the update, continue on below.

Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered FlyBy Camera Maker

Tomb Raider 4-6 Remastered received a pair of trailers today focusing on its new FlyBy Camera Maker and a video showing off outfits.

According to Aspyr, FlyBy Camera Maker is “a tool that empowers players to create their own dynamic, cinematic shots” as they can “map out a moving camera path through any scene, opening a world of creative possibilities.” Up to 20 cameras can be placed along a path. Shots can also be fined-tuned by scrolling through placed camera points and adjusting settings such as Roll, Field-of-View, Zoom, and movement speed.

With Star Wars: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles making its return this week, we’re taking the time to put together dedicated post for the game’s cheat codes as well as all of the new characters.

Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered review

System: Switch
Release date: December 10, 2024
Developer: Crystal Dynamics
Publisher: Aspyr


One of many series that I have mourned the loss of over the last two decades is Legacy of Kain. After the disastrous Nosgoth spinoff was cancelled and the IP was passed back and forth over the years with various acquisitions, it seemed to be a series that would be eventually forgotten about. The Soul Reaver duology received widespread critical acclaim at the time of their release, and even though this was 25 years ago, their resurrection on the Nintendo Switch as Legacy of Kain Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered shows that time has done little to dull what made them such noteworthy titles when they were first released.
