• Have You Played Virginia? - 7 May 2019

  Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. I’ve never been one for Twin Peaks, I’m afraid, and I know Virginia gets compared to that a lot. It’s a small town with a cast of small town people. Weird stuff is happening. You’re an FBI agent. You drink coffee in the diner. You get it. And none of that is really what I like about Virginia. (more…)

• Inside earns 4 awards as BAFTA winners announced - 6 April 2017

  Eerie puzzle platformer Inside has nabbed four awards as the winners of this year s videogame BAFTAs were announced at the annual ceremony in London.

Show offs. …

• Virginia 1.01 - 1 October 2016

  Friends, We have made changes to Virginia which we are distributing to you today. Let me list the changes for you: - In the Image section of Settings we have replaced the High, Medium Low quality setting with per feature quality controls, to allow you more control over the look of the game, the details of which are below: - Motion blur toggle. When enabled, fast camera motion produces a blurring effect, similar to that which you'd see in recorded film and television. You can turn off the effect, both for personal taste and to slightly reduce the performance impact of the game. - Anti-aliasing toggle. When enabled, the anti-aliasing filter improves the overall quality of the image. You can turn off this effect to slightly reduce the performance impact of the game. - Camera smoothing. When enabled, the camera movement is made less abrupt, to approximate the constraints of natural head mov…

• Wot I Think: Virginia - 22 September 2016

  I m delighted to say that Virginia was not at all about what I thought it would be, what it seemed to be. Pretty early on, its narrative took a surprising sideways step, a sudden and yet fluid motion that made it feel fresh, exciting and unpredictable. It was the first of a series of such steps the game would take, crabbing its way into increasingly unusual territory until, at the end of its two hour story, I wasn t quite sure where either of us were left standing. Many of its surprises were pleasant, but others were perplexing. Ostensibly, Virginia is about two women working for the FBI in the early 1990s, tasked to find a boy who has gone missing in the titular state. However, this missing person case isn t quite what it seems. Nor is your own objective. Nor even is your character or, it seems, much of what s going on around you. By its conclusion, I wasn t entirely sure what Virginia…

• Meet FBI Agent Anne Tarver In This New Virginia Trailer - 18 September 2016

  David Lynch-inspired, small town whodunnit Virginia is gearing up for its launch next week and has released a new character trailer in preparation. We get a closer look at the game’s protagonist, Anne Tarver. She’s an FBI agent, fresh on the scene after graduation. She drives around Virginia with her partner, Maria Halperin, as they try to solve the case of a missing boy. She has a very official looking badge. She can drive. There is a large telescope. Okay, so the trailer doesn’t actually tell us that much about the character, but the game sure looks pretty. …

• Mysterious Girl: Virginia Gets Cinematic Trailer - 9 September 2016

  Right, I’m going to level with you: I’m really behind on Virginia news because I want to go into it as fresh as is feasible while retaining my job on this PC gaming website. Single-player mystery thrillers involving FBI agents are very much my area of interest and I do prefer mysteries where I know very little about them going in. With that in mind, I’m watching this cinematic trailer for Virginia, but I’m doing the kind of watching where I’m deliberately not paying attention, I’m just trying to ensure it’s definitely a trailer and there’s definitely a game and no-one’s accidentally left a bunch of porn halfway through or something: …

• First-Person Investigator: Virginia Gets A Demo - 25 August 2016

  It’s been ages since we last visited the Twin Peaks-inspired-ish first-person vignette ’em up Virginia but whoa hey hello, here’s a release date and a demo out of nowhere. The demo is about twenty minutes long, offering a taste of life as a ’90s FBI agent investigating a missing child in a small town and answering basic questions like “Okay but what is it and what do I do?” That is now answered for me and so I’m quite looking forward to its full launch on September 22nd. …
