Prismatic Evolutions has, rather sadly, broken the Pokémon TCG. Thanks to bots, scalpers, and atrocious prevention of them by the Pokémon Center, cards for this new, special set sold out, sometimes even before pre-orders were visible to the public.

Art of Rally was a beautiful, stripped-down meditation on racing. Over the hill, the next game from Funselektor, looks like an equally minimalist and gorgeous take on off-roading van life.
Here’s an interesting question: If the subject of a really good remaster is a bad game, does that mean the remaster is also bad, or just a good way to experience the original flawed product? That’s the question I’ve been pondering since playing Star Wars: Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles.
