There's an episode of Californication where David Duchovny's writer character is asked to provide a treatment of a screenplay by rapper Samurai Apocalypse (wonderfully played by the Rza). The script in question is called Santa Monica Cop. "Oh, like Beverly Hills Cop?" the Duchovny character asks. "No. It's like Santa Monica!" Apocalypse deadpans. This pretty much sums up EuroGamer's interview with Mega Man creator Keiji Inafune about his new Kickstarter project, the recently launched retro throwback Mighty No. 9.

Three letters are synonymous with all that's right and wrong in the video game world: GTA. Once a simple, low-budget crime game, the Grand Theft Auto series has evolved into a cultural phenomenon that transcends the medium. The fifth entry, GTA V, is one of the most anticipated games of all time and will hit store shelves on September 17. Analysts are predicting record-breaking sales, US senators have already called for it to be banned in the wake of the Sandy Hook elementary school massacre, pre-orders were pulled because of the hype, and through it all, obsessive gamers, fans and even some who've never touched a controller have been eagerly awaiting its release.

"The Saints Row series is perhaps one of the greatest modern examples of dont judge a book by its cover in video gaming history. The first game was widely written off as a GTA knock-off, and to be fair it mostly was. However, there were hints at greatness even then, from lightning you could summon with your cell phone to a voodoo priest that could revive dead allies as zombies. Having been there since the very beginning, it did my heart good to see the overwhelming positive reaction to The Third, and Volition has struck while the iron is hot with Saints Row IV. The project started as standalone DLC when the company was owned by THQ, and has now morphed into a full retail release. Many have been asking, is this worth the full price point knowing that? Yes. Yes it is." - Alex Santa Maria of Geekenstein
