Live-Action Miniseries based on SOMA coming through the tubes

The Folks behind the recently released SOMA, which is already on my contender list for the Twinstiq Awards, are currently releasing a live-action series that promises to take a look at what happened before the events of the game. The first episode clocks in at 5 minutes, and more will be released daily on their YouTube channel until Oct. 5th.
Little warning though: The first episode does include some slight spoilers, unless you’ve seen their teaser trailer before. Read more

New Steam Store Releases: Soma

One of the most talked-about games to hit the Steam Store this week is Frictional Games' underwater sci-fi horror title, Soma.

I don't know about you, but I will definitely be checking this one out at some point.

Also new this week, Blood Bowl 2, a (so far) pretty tepidly-received enhanced port of Final Fantasy V, and an epically crazy sci-fi twin stick shooter called Assault Android Cactus. Talk about a dark descent, then proceed further to see more of this week's new releases.

But what’s everybody playing over the weekend? Read more
