Unfortunately, there’s not nearly enough actual singing in this hour for a plot involving sea shanties, and the bulk of the story isn’t so much about the vicious sea spirit’s backstory as it is a trip down memory lane with her last batch of victims, who all turn out to be faces we’ve seen before....

New Fable Game Adds Control Writer Anna Megill

The announcement that a new Fable game is in development may have been Xbox’s biggest pre-Xbox Series X launch announcement, or at least it was until the Bethesda acquisition was made.

Fans are still hungry for new Fable details, however, which makes it quite exciting to confirm that the narrative lead for Control, Anna Megill, is now working on the game....

Olympus 2207 A Fallout 2 Total Conversion Mod Gets English Translation After 6 Years

There’s a good reason you’ve likely never heard of Olympus 2207. That’s because it’s a Russian total conversion mod of Fallout 2 that came out in 2014.

Olympus 2207 was an ambitious project from mod team Nebesa Games to totally overhaul Fallout 2. Although the engine, assets, and some of the mechanics are the same, everything else has been entirely rebuilt....
