The plot takes place in 1981 in West Germany. 18-year-old Noah lives with his father Leonardo, an unsuccessful writer who obsessively engages in Hitler research. Despite money problems, Leonardo travels to an auction in an old castle, where objects related to Hitler are auctioned.

PlayStation TV could return with PS6 handheld
26.02.26 - Sony could also bring back PlayStation TV with the - still unconfirmed - PS6 handheld. This is what the usually well-informed insider Zuby_Tech claims.
PlayStation TV, known as PlayStation Vita TV in Japan and other parts of Asia, is a micro console from Sony within the PlayStation hardware family. The device is a home console variant of the portable PlayStation Vita. Sony launched the console on 11/14/13 in Japan and on 11/14/14 in Europe and Australia.
It is controlled with Sixaxis, DualShock 3 or DualShock 4 controllers. PlayStation TV plays numerous Vita titles and applications from Module or from the PlayStation Store. Not all content is compatible, as features such as gyroscope and microphone are missing. The system emulates touch inputs via the controllers.
Sony has not confirmed the report.
RoboCop: Rogue City publisher Nacon files for bankruptcy
25.02.26 - The French publisher Nacon has filed for bankruptcy after the majority owner Bigben Interactive was unable to make a partial repayment of a bond loan. This is reported by VGC.
Nacon stated that its available funds are not sufficient to cover maturing liabilities. The plan is now to apply for judicial restructuring proceedings in order to examine all options to secure business operations, protect employees and preserve jobs.
Nacon wants to renegotiate its debts during this process and develop a feasible continuation plan. Trading in Nacon shares remains suspended until further notice. Nacon was founded in 1981 and is 76.7 percent owned by the Bigben Group.
Ecco the Dolphin Remaster coming to Switch
25.02.26 - A&R Atelier will release the remaster of Ecco the Dolphin (Mega Drive) for the Switch. This was announced by Ed Annunziata, the creative director of the studio and creator of the series, in the current issue of Famitsu.
Ecco has many fans and many people know the classics, but in Annunziata's opinion, many have never played it completely. "Many players didn't get past Stage 2," says Annunziata. That's why the team wants to develop a more accessible version with the remaster, which is graphically contemporary.
"Ecco is a symbol of the beauty of the sea, and that's what adds to the appeal of the game. Sea creatures are not invented figures, they really exist," says Annunziata, explaining the fascination with Ecco.
Furthermore, the development team wants to combine the 8-bit, 16-bit and 32-bit era in a single package. Players can then switch between the different graphic styles in real time. Annunziata has not yet decided what Ecco the Dolphin Remaster will be called in the end - but the name Ecco Complete appeals to him. Release: TBA (Europe)
Ahhh Ecco the Dolphin. I could go back and forth between that and Chakan the Forever Man for the title of most sadistically cruel game on the Genesis. Actually, Ecco probably gets it, because you're playing as a freaking dolphin. Who's expecting a game where you're a dolphin to be that damn hard?
I never played it myself but have heard all about it. Definitely an interesting twist.
It was ridiculously difficult. Ecco was a game I really wanted to enjoy, but I just couldn't. Dreamcast one was even more difficult. I never played Chakan.
Played a bit of Ecco the Dolphin back in the day but that was about it. Probably got stuck or something and just gave up. I know of Chakan the Forever Man and can picture the cover in mind but don’t recall having ever played it.
I've been watching re9 comparison vids as I wont be playing it anytime soon.
By the time I get through re7 and Village the price will drop anyway and I have other games to plow through at the moment anyway.
Very suprised that Raytracing is exclusive to the ps5 pro version, I thought ps5 would have it for sure.
Next up is resolution, seems to be 1080p on even ps5? Switch 2 is Dlss upscaled but the base resolution before updcaling is 540p IIRC.
Because of DLSS it has better image stability, particularly in background elements compared to ps5. But otherwise everything else looks better on ps5 as expected
Though DF seems to think its very comparable to the ps5 version outside of some instances.
Framerate on switch 2 is variable feom 45 to 60 unlocked. I don't get why they didn't just do a 40fps mode like Cyberpunk as the game is consistently well above 40 fps at all times.
Also would have liked a 30fps quality mode. I saw an ign review saying there was no gyro aiming wtf? Other sources said it was there unless I'm mistaken.
For me it's a one and done game. I enjoyed playing it but have no desire to play it again.
I actually played Ecco about a month ago and yep, stopped at the second level.
The hell is this:
Videogamer.com called out for posting AI Resident Evil Requiem review, barred from Metacritic
IGN is gutting Eurogamer now
Yup. It was fully 3D. Looked amazing at the time. I believe they released it on PS2 as well after the Dreamcast died.
View on YouTube
Releases tomorrow, GG. Damn, videogamer.com
Aww man that blows. If they get rid of what remains of the old guard I'm out. The newbs they planted there after the buyout can't hold a candle to their writing. I'll just follow them wherever they're headed next.The Marvel Maximum Collection isn't half bad. The Silver Surfer (NES) is a really strange choice to be included though. I can't recall many people even talking about that game good or bad.
That was a tough game.
Yeah, looks pretty cool. I think the only game I played was the Konami arcade beat ‘em up. Definitely interested in getting this.
Played for a couple of hours Resident Evil Requiem last night and the game looks amazing. The character models and attention to detail is incredible. Grace’s section was quite tense and scary. Leon’s section was very action packed and badass.
