Image: Nintendo EPD/NintendoIt's October, which means we're in the thick of the fall and gaming's busiest release season. In most years, October serves as the annual climax of the release schedule — but not this year. That's because November sees the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 and, for Nintendo fans, the equivalently huge deal that is the Switch 2 remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
Stodden said she would "keep fighting until children are protected from marriage in all 50 states".
She was married to actor Doug Hutchison - known for roles in The Green Mile, A Time to Kill and I Am Sam - in 2011, spurring headlines internationally over the controversy and appearances on several reality programmes in the US, including the VH1 series Couples Therapy.
Are you aware of Oh!Ware? I'm guessing not. The deckbuilder has been on Steam for about a week as of this writing, with a humble 23 reviews to its name so far. It caught my eye though, because the fundamental mechanic underneath the very 2026 trappings of a roguelike structure and marbles standing in for cards is mancala—a slightly older board game you probably played at some point in your childhood.

End of Abyss makes you feel like a lost child in a menacing labyrinth
Image: Section 9 Entertainment/Epic GamesI’m small and I’m lost. For nearly a decade, that sinking feeling has haunted Bandai Namco’s Little Nightmares series. Created by Tarsier Studios (the team behind this year’s fantastic Reanimal), Little Nightmares first caught fire in 2017 because it captured a very real kind of terror — one you feel as a kid anytime you get separated from your guardian in an unfamiliar place. Section 9 Interactive, a studio founded by former Little Nightmares developers, has now taken that idea to its logical evolution for its debut game, End of Abyss. Can any video game genre leave you feeling as small and lost as a Metroidvania?
I’d finish them all.

Control Resonant, like 2019's Control, starts a little slow, with only a few weapon powers and abilities to wield by the closing third of the game. Slow is putting it kindly; the early chapters were a slog – or at least they were before Remedy adjusted some settings just before it went on sale.
Tom Cruise has built a career on jumping out of airplanes, scaling skyscrapers and performing other high-wire antics in the name of entertainment. His next stunt may be his riskiest yet: Getting moviegoers to see “Digger,” a rare big-budget, star-driven R-rated original comedy.
