There was a time when certain shops would resemble nightclubs at about midnight: a long queue of excitable people, some of them perhaps too young to be out that late, discussing the excitement that awaits inside. The sight of throngs of gamers looking to get their hands on the latest hardware when the clock strikes 12 is growing increasingly rare. But if you happen to walk by a Smyths toy shop at midnight on 4 June, you may encounter a blast from the past: excitable people, most in their teens or 20s, possibly discussing Mario Kart. They will be waiting to buy the Nintendo Switch 2, the first major games console launch since 2020 and potentially the biggest of all time. What's particularly notable about this launch isn't the queues but just how few there will be.

I am back from a week of running around Gamescom at a convention centre in Cologne, drinking German beer out of deceptively tiny-looking glasses, only to discover that Sony is – in this economy! The cost will remain the same in the US but everywhere else it will rise by up to 20%; in the UK, it will increase 6%, from £449.99 to £479.99 (or £359.99 to £389.99 for the cheaper model that has no disc drive). The hike is steepest (21%) in Sony's heartland of Japan. Given that middle earners are trimming costs and lower earners are facing heartbreaking choices between, for instance, food and heating when energy prices double this winter, this news has put me into a stage of late-stage-capitalism rage. Many are striking because people can't afford to live any more.

In the immortal words of Arthur the Aardvark, "Havin' fun isn't hard, when you've got a library card!" But how much fun can you really have with a library card? Turns out, more than I expected. Libraries across America are adding video games to their collections available for checkout. Gamers with an incessant appetite for new experiences or anyone looking to play video games for free should contact their local library to see if they have a collection.

Closest in tone to Game of Thrones' dirty and pitiless fantasy, The Witcher 3 is a truly superb fantasy game as full of sex, dirty tricksters and political betrayal as any Thrones fan could wish for, with a more generous dose of fantasy creatures. You play as a monster-hunting outcast, Geralt, caught up in a rulers' war. Interestingly, The Witcher lets you see the impact that the egotistical nobles' struggles actually have on the people forced to live under them, rather than casting you as the hero who rides in on a white horse. Its characters and writing are excellent, and the socio-political intrigue will be irresistible to anyone who appreciates GoT's tangled webs of houses and rivalries. Step into the shoes of a king (or, on Reigns: Her Majesty, a queen) and see how long you can survive without being murdered by rivals, assassinated by the church, or trampled to death in a stampede of adoring subjects.

Its success will inevitably pave the way for more ambitious creators, would-be auteurs and flagrant imitators who, just like Bandersnatch's protagonist Stefan, are eager to explore what can happen when the outcome of their stories is decided by the viewer. Of course, video games have been playing with the power of narrative decision-making since the 1980s. Here are five of the best. This interactive spin-off of the hit TV show has you regularly wrestling with your morality as you guide a young girl named Clementine and her companions along a post-apocalyptic journey that showcases the necessity of selfishness when it comes to survival. The game's shining moments come in how it handles group dynamics.

Mojang, the developer behind popular video game Minecraft, has announced that after the upcoming'Update Aquatic' release, the game will not update on older consoles. Players on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PS Vita and Wii U will all receive the latest update shortly after the initial launch hits newer systems. But this will be the last new update that is compatible with these platforms. 'This will mark the last big effort to keep those editions up to date with our newer versions of the game,' Mojang said in a post on their website. 'Although we'd love to keep bringing new content to all our players forever, the older generation of consoles now make up less than 5 percent of our active players' 'So we've made the difficult decision to focus our efforts to support players where they play Minecraft the most and where we plan to add new features,' they added.

There's a big reason why the PlayStation 4 is the best-selling console: It has a smattering of games that you can't play anywhere else. Think: blockbusters like Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, Horizon: Zero Dawn and Bloodborne. But even if Indiana Jones simulators and massive open worlds where you hunt down robo-dinosaurs aren't your thing, there are still plenty of exclusives to pick from. Whether it's the best baseball video game franchise, a choose-your-own-adventure horror or an engrossing social simulator/JRPG hybrid, there's a lot to play on Sony's latest console. And then there are games from massive third-party publishers like Activision and Ubisoft, along with quirky indie offerings to round out the selection.

All online games eventually die. But the difference between the original version of World of Warcraft and, say, Call of Duty: Ghosts is that WoW was more of a service on an open system (PC). Players were able to gradually migrate to its annual expansions, while remaining a part of the overall population. Comparatively, CoD is a franchise with annual sequels on several different pieces of hardware, each with cordoned off players who jump from one game to the next. But sometimes you don't want to stop playing a game just because seemingly everyone has moved on after 14 months.

After settling a six-year long class action lawsuit in June, Sony has set up a website where owners of its so-called "Fat" PlayStation 3 video game console can claim their share of the settlement. Customers, depending on when they purchased the popular console, could pull down as much as 55, the Associated Press reported Monday. The suit involved Sony's OtherOS feature, which allowed PS3 users to portion off part of the console's hard drive and install popular open-source operating system Linux, and the company's decision to nix the feature in a software update in April 2010. Customers claimed Sony violated the system's warranty and accused the Japanese company of false advertising. Now, after years of litigation, customers who bought the "Fat" PS3, the title given to the original and larger systems compared to later slimmer models, between Nov. 1, 2006, and April 1, 2010, are eligible for a piece of the settlement, TechTimes reported.
