Inside me there are two video game wolves: one that loves to blow up ants, and one that loves to build their colonies. While the Earth Defense Force series satisfies one, the other has remained hungry until now. Launching November 7th, Empire of Ants is a new, hyper-realistic ant management simulator that has you finding food, fighting enemy insects and generally living your wildest A Bug’s Life fantasies.

Close enough, welcome back SimAnt!

Despite its confusing trailers, Kunitsu-Gami is a highly stylized and pleasantly challenging ‘maiden defense’ game.

The Merc with a Mouth gets a controller with a butt.
Just in time for Deadpool and Wolverine, Xbox is giving away a new controller that puts the “ass” in assassin...and I hate it.
Now, I don’t mind gimmicky controllers. Those furry Sonic controllers didn’t bother me because they were still regular controllers, sweaty hands notwithstanding. But this monstrosity doesn’t even look ergonomically functional. All that ass and no way to properly grip it.
