Star Wars Jedi: Survivor review: a good Star Wars epic with a lot of collectibles
In my preview of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor I said it was a competent game that essentially offered Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but more. Playing the full thing reveals I was correct, both for better and for worse, which is why you should never doubt me. Are we done here?
Oh alright. Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a third-person action game where you play Cal Kestis in his second rip-roaring adventure across a localised part of the galaxy, fighting both the Empire and a very naughty little Sith, with a flanking attack from Cal’s own regrets about getting people killed all the time. Crucially though, at least for the purposes of having fun, Cal has one of those hot glowsticks that goes *whummmmm* and cute robot friend BD-1 – but you will often be deploying both in the effort to get a new pair of trousers.

Best Of 2022: Tunic’s In-Game Manual Gives Mechanical Importance To Collectibles
With an adorable fox in a little green tunic–brandishing a sword and shield in its quest to save the world–it might have been easy for Tunic to wear its influences too proudly on its sleeve. From a high-level perspective, it’s got all the trappings of a classic Legend of Zelda adventure, from color-coded McGuffins to collect, to distinct biomes that require certain tools and tricks to navigate through. For much of the game’s opening, it sticks strictly to a formula you’re mostly familiar with, inviting the desire for something new just as it introduces it with generosity. From that point on, Tunic is entirely its own thing, eschewing any assumptions you might have made about its structure and delivering an engrossing, surprising, adventure.
Central to this feat is a core mechanic that feels unique to Tunic: an in-game manual. When you pause Tunic, you’re presented with a fuzzy view of the game world as a backdrop to a crisp game manual; a neat little trick that informs you that you’re not actually playing Tunic; you’re playing as someone else playing it instead. As you explore Tunic’s world, you’ll uncover new lost pages for this game manual, inviting you to immediately pause and inspect them. Many, initially, are simple tutorials; hit this button to attack, use this one to block, and be aware that you can use these simple items in these basic ways.
The fundamentals of Tunic are portrayed in the more eye-catching pieces of information details on each page, but its more-fascinating hints are strewn around its periphery. Little pencil etchings make references to symbols you may or may not have seen before, with supplementary printed imagery that doesn’t make sense within the context of the core messaging you’ve already gleaned from the page in question. Like the world that it’s describing, this game manual is its own puzzle; one that unlocks secrets within the world, leading you to more pages to help piece together its much larger, hidden message.

Here are the first not-an-NFT “digital collectibles” for PlayStation Stars
During its State of Play even on Tuesday, Sony gave us a look at some of the first “digital collectibles” that’ll be available as rewards for its PlayStation Stars loyalty program. The items — which Sony insists are not NFTs or based on the blockchain — are basically little virtual statues of devices like the PlayStation 3 and the PocketStation PDA / handheld gaming device, as well as characters from games like Ape Escape 2, and Sony mascots like Polygon Man.
When Sony announced the PlayStation Stars program earlier this summer, it said that members will be able to earn points alongside digital collectibles. It’s not entirely clear what the points will do yet, but the company has hinted that you may be able to buy some PlayStation Store…
