There’s a new pope kicking around, and while I’m sure his schedule is fairly busy I have a request: please bless the skippable cutscene. During his next visit to GamesReviews.com, I’m hoping he sees this and fully understands the absolute sincerity in which I ask this. The skippable cutscene is potentially one of the most beautiful inventions in the modern world. Firstly because it doesn’t require a subscription, but mostly just because of the pure convenience of it all. This…

Days Gone was one of my first finishes of 2025, so no surprise they released a remastered version just after. That’s brought up the old conversation about if it’s really a bad game again. Honestly, I expected a poorly scripted, mediocre open world zombie game that only the biggest Sony fan could love. And sure, it’s a diamond in the rough, but you ignore the rough at your peril. Granted, I played it on PC a few years after release.…

Idiots on Tiktok have turned the new Minecraft movie into a meme. Kids (and more than a few adults) have been convinced to throw popcorn and drinks, scream loudly, and generally cause trouble in the name of fitting in. The real problem? Some producers are taking notice. The cinema business has been in freefall for a good while now. People are going to less and less films, and with more variety than ever. If you’re not James Bond, Marvel, Star…

Has there ever been a game with so much pressure on it as Assassin’s Creed Shadows? Ubisoft need it to be a hit, and the difference it could make if its flops is gigantic. Not that there would be any kind of surprise in it doing well. This isn’t a Starfield level gamble, where you have an unproven IP and a sudden exclusivity. This is Assassin’s Creed, and while it doesn’t always burn up the forum inches in hardcore spaces,…

You saw it when the Game Awards announced its top nominees for 2024. There, hidden amongst AAA games from big name publishers. You saw the comments. “Balatro? Haven’t heard of it. Why the hell are they including a card game?” And frankly, it’s lucky for all involved that the Elden Ring DLC became a lighting rod for the really negative conversation this year. People got to take out their frustration on something not directly related to the games for the…

Once upon a time, retro collections were rapidly thrown together catalogues of old games. These were roms, and other than a menu connecting them together, nothing else had changed. Gone are the days. Capcom has another Fighting Collection on the way. A Tetris set is in the works too. This is awesome news. And I’m especially aware of it, because I’m working through the incredible Sonic Origins collection right now. First, Fighting Collection 2. Any set that includes the Power…

Concord, Firewalk Studios’ debut title on the PS5, is a hero-based shooter that offers a unique blend of character-driven gameplay and intense action. While it shows promise, it’s still navigating the competitive landscape and could benefit from a few refinements. The Good: Distinct Characters: Each character brings a unique playstyle to the table, ensuring variety and strategic depth. Engaging Story: The narrative, though still unfolding, offers a compelling backdrop for the action. Visually Appealing: The game’s graphics are impressive, ...

A demo of Epic Mickey Rebrushed is available today! A demo of Epic Mickey Rebrushed is available today on the Switch, PS4/PS5, and Xbox Series. I downloaded the demo and have played it a little bit. The graphics look better than ever and the gameplay is really good so far. I like having control over the camera and not having to worry about motion controls. I haven’t finished the demo yet but will try to write more about the game…

There’s been a lot of talk lately about where the industry goes from here. It’s is in a bad place. Games that are too big to fail are failing. Releases are becoming fewer, and developers are playing it absolutely safe. And yet the answer is right under our noses: Fortnite. Now, I can’t say that I love this future. But every so often the topic of Fortnite will come up amongst myself and colleagues and although it’s not our cup…
