Like a Dragon (formerly known as Yakuza) can be a tough series to get into, with many installments in the series it can be confusing on where the best place is to jump in. It also can be a little too off the wall for some people, with the random karaoke breaks and off the wall narratives. Like a Dragon Ishin! However, is a very different kind of game, while yes it has the same characters known throughout the series,…

Scars Above Review
Scars Above honestly wasn’t even on my radar until the opportunity to review the game became available to me. After watching a trailer for it I was certainly intrigued. While we have gotten a few games that are similar such as Dead Space Remake and The Callisto Protocol as far as the space disaster exploration games are concerned. What does Scars Above do differently to try to stand out from the competition? To me blending more of a Returnal meets…
Read MoreDid Suicide Squad Miss the Boat?
There was a time when Suicide Squad and in particular Harley Quinn were huge. And that coincided with a time when superhero GAAS titles were soaked in potential. That time is decidedly not now. I don’t have strong opinions on the showing of Rocksteady’s new Suicide Squad. It debuted to mixed reaction at this week’s PlayStation State of Play, and while I won’t be rushing out to buy it, decent reviews make it a must-play at some point. These are…

The Razer Blade 15, the latest in a long line of thin and lightweight 15" gaming laptops, is now available. Fitted with the 13th generation Intel® Core™ i7 13800H processor and NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX 40-series GPUs up to the RTX 4070, this ultra-portable gaming machine packs a powerful punch.

Read MorePharaoh: A New Era Review
When the PR firm reached out and asked if I wanted to review Pharaoh: A New Era I brushed it off and kept scrolling. PC games aren’t for me, and I thought I’d come back to it later and get it sent to our PC Editor to review. I actually forgot about it for a few days, but when I circled back and FINALLY opened it up, I then realized this was a remake of my favourite city builder of…
Read MoreWho Remasters the Remasters?
In the last few weeks, we’ve seen a very quick raft of releases of old games for new consoles, and not a single one has released without some issue, big or small. Just think about that for a second. Goldeneye, Tales of Symphonia. Hell, even the Blade Runner release from last year is still being fixed (which is admirable, but plays into my point here). There is clearly a demand for old games. There are entire communities of retro fans…
Read MoreThe Great VR Experiment Continues
PlayStation VR2 releases this week, and reviews are fantastic. Unsurprisingly, if you’re already sold on VR and have a PlayStation 5, you’re not going to be disappointed by VR on PlayStation 5. But this is the latest VR device to hit stores, and it’s yet another test of just how this area of the industry is going to go. It’s one thing to have PCVR, it’s another entirely for it to hit the mainstream through consoles. I say mainstream. That’s…

Read MoreThe CMA Could’ve Blocked. They Didn’t.
The CMA in the UK has given its initial verdict on Microsoft’s purchase of Activision – and it’s not necessarily good news. But it isn’t bad news either. The CMA has basically said that the potential of removing Call of Duty from PlayStation could cause harm to consumers, and the purchase would make it difficult for other companies to break into the cloud gaming market. These don’t really stand up to scrutiny. That’s okay, because this isn’t a final decision.…
