| Soapbox: The Term 'Indie' Is Losing Meaning, But Maybe That's A Positive Sign Posted: 15 Aug 2021 10:00 AM PDT The games industry has come a long way in a short time. Back in the pre-internet / download store days of the Console 'Bit' Wars, the way we bought and enjoyed games could not have been more different. Video games were expensive store purchases, and often you'd rely on renting games that you couldn't afford or couldn't 'commit' to buying.

These are the questions Islanders Console Edition came to us to answer. Woah. In Islanders, you build mellow settlements on tranquil islands. You do this by placing serene buildings so that the right kinds of chilled-out things group together. Houses for example, benefit from proximity to things like markets and circuses. Unlike in city sims, you don't lay infrastructure – no tarmac, no cables or pipes, no zoning – and there is randomness determining which structures are available to place at any time.

| Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #89 - Chrono Trigger Posted: 15 Aug 2021 06:00 AM PDT Trigger warning. Welcome back to Box Art Brawl, our increasingly erratically scheduled series of retro box art polls where we all decide the best regional variants from two or more territories. Last time we looked at F-Zero: GP Legend for the GBA. Europe and North America ultimately duked it out for the silver medal (with Europe having to settle for bronze) while Japan brought home the gold with 58% of the vote.
