If it’s (not) broken… Square-Enix’s announcement of a Final Fantasy 7 Remake (opens in new tab) at E3 2015 (opens in new tab) was a shock to the system. What was long regarded as nothing more than a fanboy’s fantasy is finally becoming a reality, and we couldn’t be more …

So, okay, I might have been a little bit aggressive while playing Fable Legends (opens in new tab). In my defense, my character looked the part; a young woman wearing no shoes, a tattered dress, and an uncompromising smirk as she hunched over a giant sword, she immediately seemed ready …

I know a few things about the town I’m currently destroying. It’s somewhere in the sun-kissed Republic of Medici, a tranquil and fictional Mediterranean nation dreamed up for Just Cause 3.

We expect a certain bluster from developers like Eidos Montreal working on games like Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, star of the cover of the latest issue of Edge, available now in print, on iPad, Google Play and Zinio (opens in new tab). You’d certainly understand it in this instance: here …
