I am currently playing Bionic Bay (PC).

It's great! Definitely one to try if you're into platform/puzzle games.

2001 is best summed up as the pivot between "what video games were" and "what video games became"

I wouldn't say it's the best year for video gaming (1994, 1998, 2004, very arguably 2007 could all be seen as better), but I can't think of any year more important than it than maybe 1977 or 1983.

Ubisoft cancels six games including Prince of Persia and closes studios

1 hour ago

Ubisoft has cancelled six video games - including its long-awaited Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake - as part of a "major reset" of its operations.

The French developer and publisher, known for popular games such as Assassin's Creed, Far Cry and Just Dance, has closed two studios and delayed seven titles as part of its changes.

Ubisoft boss Yves Guillemot said the move would "create the conditions for a return to sustainable growth".

The firm's shares plunged by 33% on Thursday morning following the announcement.

The move comes at a time when studios are increasingly turning to video game remakes and remasters, with new versions of Super Mario Galaxy, Oblivion and Metal Gear Solid 3 proving popular in 2025.

So the decision to bin the remake of Sands of Time - which sold millions of copies in 2003 - has left many fans scratching their heads.

This looks really good. I didn't play Little Nightmares 3, because of its poor reviews. However, Reanimal is by the same studio who did Little Nightmares 1 and 2 (both amazing).

Definitely next on my playlist...
