Aloy returns in the new story expansion for Horizon Forbidden West, where she travels to the islands of Burning Shores, an area that was known as Los Angeles in the Old World, to take on a new threat. For those who loved Horizon Forbidden West, the Burning Shores DLC comes to add some more story, […]
Resident Evil is one of the few franchises that has actually managed to stand the test of time. It started out as a huge success, essentially creating the survival horror genre of games but losing its way by trying to follow trends. Capcom could have accepted defeat in 2012 and abandoned the Resident Evil series. […]
Let’s be honest, it feels like we’ve all collectively been waiting for this game to come out since we first picked up a Harry Potter book as kids. And although we won’t be heading to Platform 9 3/4 to board the Hogwarts Express, our letter of admission to Hogwarts Wizarding School did arrive, even if […]
You guys remember when Need for Speed games used to be good? I do. And from the looks of it, so does EA. The Need for Speed series has been swamped in mediocrity for more than a decade, with ProStreet being the last decent entry in the franchise, before Heat revitalized the series in 2019. […]
It’s not often we get the opportunity to see a media product become bigger than the niche it belongs to. Last time it was Avengers: Endgame and the way that movie took over pop culture for months. In the gaming industry, which is hardly considered niche anymore, things are a little different. There are very […]
I have to admit that it’s a bit bizarre for the first game based on the Batman mythos, after the sensational Arkham Knight, to not feature Batman. Still, Gotham Knights is one of the hottest releases of the year, a notch below Elden Ring and God of War: Ragnarok. Having spent five days almost non-stop […]
Ah yes, welcome to the eternal pain that is yearly sports game releases. Whether it’s FIFA or NBA 2K, this period of the year is designated to games we love to hate, but can’t stop playing nonetheless. FIFA 23 is arguably the biggest sports release of this year (same as every year if we’re being […]
It somehow doesn’t feel that long ago that I played another Naughty Dog classic for the first time, in the form of Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection. Yet, here we are again with a remake of Naughty Dog’s most renowned title: The Last of Us. And just like Uncharted 4, I’m experiencing this for the […]
Coming from Natsume-Atari studios and published by 505 Games, Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising is a short and sweet 2D action-adventure side-scroller that finds its storytelling roots deep in the Japanese RPG tradition with a hint of Metroidvania-styled gameplay. The whole point of this game is to act as a prelude to the upcoming Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred […]
I’m an absolute sucker for Bethesda games. Be it Arkane’s immersive sims like Prey and Deathloop, Doom, Wolfenstein, or even Bethesda’s own classics, I always seem to have an amazing time when playing through these games. There’s something about the narrative, the world-building, the feeling of awe Bethesda games give you that you can’t quite […]
Say what you will about Japan’s contributions to pop culture, but there’s one thing you can’t argue about; the Japanese know how to make some amazing cars. And they sure know how to make car games. See what I did there? The Gran Turismo series has never been your run-of-the-mill racing game, and GT7 stays […]
Remember how I told you guys that there were tons of games like Horizon Forbidden West, yet none could really match it? Well, it’s time to shake things up. Kick it up a notch (heh). Because there’s definitely no game like Sifu. Fighting games are a peculiar genre. They always look good, they make you […]
