While You Were Sleeping

Morning all! Thursday. Sleep has been sparse for me. It’s been Dark Souls and babies. That’s it. This is While You Were Sleeping, we round up the news you might have missed.

This morning has been a bit of a trip down memory lane. Every second story seemed to be about things I loved back when I were a lad! Take this game for example: it’s a trailer for a game that basically looks and feels like every 16-bit game ever made. It’s a bit Zelda, a bit like Diablo, a bit like Super Metroid, a bit like Castlevania.

And then there’s this video. More videos need to be like this: like Akira and video games.

Oh, and in case you missed it — I wrote a bit about how I was completely wrong about handheld gaming. I AM SORRY OKAY! I WAS WRONG!

Time to completely overdose on plastic collectibles and, wow, the Sons Of Anarchy creator claims he’s found a studio to help make a video game. That could be interesting.
