Is Starfield delayed or not?
Let’s just cut to the chase. Is Starfield delayed? Officially, no. And to be fair to Microsoft and Bethesda Game Studios, they already told us we wouldn’t be hearing anything out of Todd Howard’s next epic role-playing game during Wednesday’s Developer Direct showcase.

How The Last of Us became ‘the greatest story’ ever told in video games
The Last of Us launched in 2013 on PS3 as a prestige narrative experience. The game was developed by Naughty Dog, a studio that had been crucial in setting the standard for story-centric games that emulated a traditional Hollywood format. Its Uncharted games mimicked the spectacle of adventure films by way of Nathan Drake, an Indiana Jones type with the luck of John McClane. But The Last of Us saw the studio pivot from blockbuster action into a genre that dominated the early 2000s — the dystopia — and in the process brought the quality of prestige TV drama to video games.

Let the (16k) games begin!
I used to stop outside the record shop on the way to school or out in town on the weekends and flick through the cassette tapes that were lined up in those tall carousels they use to sell postcards in the street. The cassettes I was interested in didn’t have music on them, but Spectrum computer games. I looked through every one to see one piece of information before I got too excited.
