There was a lot of talk, not that long ago, about the potential of cryptocurrencies and NFTs in video games. Now that discussion has died a death. There’s a couple of obvious reasons for that – all of the mainstream news about these things has been negative lately. I barely go a day without reading something about how someone lost a fortune on an easily stealable picture of a cartoon ape. But then again, you know what they say about…

Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 is out today! Check out the game’s launch trailer below. Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 1 is out today for the Nintendo Switch, PS4/PS5, Xbox Series, and PC. As a fan of Metal Gear Solid, all I have to say to you is…SNAAAAAAKE! Okay, maybe a little bit more. I’m pretty excited about this Master Collection. I love these games. Yes, I plan to get the Nintendo Switch version, which some people…

I haven’t spoken much about the Metal Gear Solid Master Collection, despite the fact that it’s MGS and I’m a huge fan. I’ve been cautiously awaiting impressions to know what to make of it. I don’t want another GTA set. On the face of it, it’s an amazing set. MGS is available on Xbox for the first time, and with trophies and achievements. It includes Integral, VR Missions and multiple languages to choose from. For the first time, western fans…

Cursed with a magic which does not fit within the five cardinal aelic callings, 13-years old Lecia has to hide from the guards and find a way out of the city. Yet this magic will allow her to sneak into places and observe plots and schemes that could shake the foundations of Magistan, as the Empress’ progress approaches Norwood. What secret ties her family and an empire where the only discrimination is based on the order of birth? Mostly text-based,…

Since the Activision merger was announced in January last year, it’s been all we’ve talked about. No gaming news has quite lived up to this giant behemoth, edging ever more closely to the finish line. And it probably never will again. But it is indeed now done. What impact is it going to have on the industry? Will Microsoft keep buying? And where does this leave PlayStation? Suffice it to say this deal is going to feel like a lot…

It is the nature of modern games that they can change, and quickly. Luckily Sonic Frontiers is all about quick. Okay, puns aside, this is a game that has changed a lot since I reviewed it back in January, and not least because of the free Final Horizon DLC released at the end of last month. But is that enough to bring players back? My initial opinion on Sonic Frontiers is that it was a diamond in the rough. It…

With the FIFA tag gone, Electronic Arts has used their own branding on this years soccer release. While the FIFA name and imaging has been removed from the franchise, everything else remains. While this isn’t a huge leap over FIFA 23, there really wasn’t much that needed to be changed. EA Sports FC continues to be the best game produced by EA Sports, and for me it’s not even close! EA has moved to the Frostbite engine for EA Sports…

It’s a headline that I didn’t think would take me the best part of two years to write… but the Microsoft Activision merger looks likely to close this week. Honestly, I’ve spent so long writing about this thing. It’s almost like the actual impact of it no longer clicks. It’s all been about the detail and the largeness, but not the actual long-term impact. So, for instance, within the week Crash and Spyro will be Xbox mascots along with Banjo…

I just received the Nacon Rig 600 Pro HX wireless Over-the-Ear gaming headset, and it has not disappointed me. Right from coming out of the box, I had already felt how lightweight the headset is and knew it was going to be perfect for long periods of use. Unboxing the headset, you receive it where you can adjust the size that would fit perfectly on your head. Just snap the ear buds into the correct slot: you have three options…

Assassin’s Creed has become one of those staple games we expect to see every couple of years, having been around the block a few times, Ubisoft is always looking for ways to reinvent the series. Going back to Origins, the game took a GIANT RPG leap forward and started to become a bigger and more robust experience since then. In many eyes, these games while great, often lost themselves and were just giant to be giant. Lots of collectables, side…
