The Ten Best Games of 2013

Skulls of the Shogun

Skulls of the Shogun was a bit of a surprise for me. Having missed its release on the Xbox 360, I picked it up on iOS on a whim. What I found was one of the best iOS strategy games in existence. The game absolutely seeps personality, with dialogue causing actual belly laughs on public transport and making me look a bit nutty.

It doesn’t rely on grids like most strategy games, allowing free movement across the battlefield. You must eat the skulls of the dead to power up your characters on each mission, trying to balance the need to do that and the fact that they’re also used for health recovery. There are also special units to unlock, with some of their powers extremely clever in the way they can interact in combat. Pick this up if you haven’t already.

Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.

Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

Fallout 3's Reveal Led To Death Threats And Bethesda's First Security Guard

The artist behind Fallout 4’s Deathclaw reveals just how bad things got back when Bethesda took over the series

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,

But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.

As much as Bethesda deserve criticism, that's not really relevant to the reveal of Fallout 3 in 2007.

The default angle Kotaku always go for is to highlight the worst in gaming.

I would’ve focused on the creative.
