In the past I was never what you would consider a fan of rogue-like games. Dead Cells came and went without me really even acknowledging it’s existence. Up until 2020 when a friend of mine could stop singing the praises of Hades, which took the gaming world by storm that year, and still to date is one of the best “indie” games I have ever played. Since then I realized I was honestly missing out on a satisfying game loop…

Playstation will air a new State of Play this Thursday, February 23, 2023. We have all the details below. A new State of Play will air this Thursday at 3pm central. It will feature Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Five new PSVR2 games, and some third party and indie reveals. Its unknown what third party and indie games will show up. Its supposed to be ‘reveals’ so it should be new titles that we don’t know about. Hopefully we’ll…

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…

Ubisoft seems to be in the news a lot lately, from plunging stock values, delays of Skull and Bones again, and now the semi-flawed release of their newest title OddBallers. Now let me start all this off by saying Ubisoft is one of my absolutely favorite developer/publisher teams out there. I am a massive fan of Watchdogs, Far Cry, The Division, Etc etc. I think they get a lot of heat for putting out many good, not GREAT, games. Does…

Hogwarts Legacy will be out for the Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X/S next week! An official launch trailer was released today. Please check it out and then come back here for our thoughts on the game. Hogwarts Legacy continues to look amazing. In the official launch trailer, we get more of a glimpse at the game’s story. A new student comes to Hogwarts as a fifth year student and gets into lots of trouble. We see a dragon, a…

With all the talk about The Last of Us, and the popularity of “film-like” games, it’s got me to thinking. When is a game a game? What basic elements of interactivity create something that just can’t be chopped up and placed into another medium? Ironically, the game that made me start thinking of this was Telling Lies. On the surface, it’s about as filmic as you can get. You scrub through actual video, clicking words in the subtitles to find…

Last year one of my most enjoyable gaming experiences was getting to review Two Point Campus, as a big fan of Two Point Hospital and Theme Hospital before it way back in the day this was a no brainer. The gameplay is fun, relaxing tone, humorous writing, what’s not to love? In fact, you can read my whole review HERE. So obviously when they announced the Space Academy DLC, I was already with my astronaut ice cream and tang! Space…

The Last of Us is a TV show now, and a million websites have declared it the end of the Video Game adaption curse. But at this point it’s just a talking point. This article won’t touch on The Last of Us – I’m not watching it until the series is finished – but instead on the hype around every new video game adaption as finally “breaking the curse”. It happened with Sonic, it happened with Mortal Kombat and it…

Dungeon Munchies will be getting a physical release, with all kinds of extras (seen above), for Nintendo Switch and Playstation 4 and 5 today. What is Dungeon Munchies? In Dungeon Munchies, you play as a zombie who is on the look for ingredients. What kind? Well,…

Simon Pegg was revealed today to be the voice of Headmaster Black in Hogwarts Legacy. Check out the video below and some more thoughts on the game. Simon Pegg is absolutely someone you would’ve thought would have been in the Harry Potter movies. So its pretty cool that he will be a voice in Hogwarts Legacy! It was neat to see him talk about the character’s history and the movies. Hogwarts Legacy is looking like a really great game. Harry…
