Xbox Series X News

Digital Eclipse is one of the best developers currently. What makes them one of the best is how they have been bringing back older games in the form of awesome collections like The Cowabunga Collection and Atari 50. And now they are bringing back Wizardry with all new graphics and upgrades! Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord will be coming to Playstation, Xbox, and Switch on May 23rd. The game will also be on PC that day too. It…

Disney Dreamlight Valley shared a developer update today via a video. We have that below along with our thoughts on the upcoming content for the game. Oh my. Wow. This developer update floored me. First, let’s talk about the free content. Daisy Duck will be joining with the free update and she’ll bring with her a new building where you can share your designs (think Able Sisters Animal Crossing fans). Not only that but the update will bring new multiplayer…

The Fallout TV series is very popular, and people are hungry to enjoy the games that inspired it. Four Fallout games were in the top ten on Steam in Europe following the show’s debut. So it’s fantastic news that the next game is probably still a decade out. Yes, we have the Fallout 4 update next week, and that’ll scratch the itch. And obviously there’s Fallout London and other fan made stuff on the horizon. But the point of this…

Oh lord, keep with me on this one, people. Tipping is controversial at the best of times. A suggestion that we bring a tip option to video games is going to be met with all kinds of resistance. But you know, it makes sense. When we look back over the last decade or so, it’s obvious that something was going to give. Games have become more expensive to make at the same time as gamers coming to expect more for…

Fallout is now a tv show on Amazon Prime Video. We checked out the first episode and some thoughts on it. Spoiler warning! Last night, I watched episode 1 of the new Amazon Prime Video show “Fallout”. Yes its based on the video game on the same name. And I have to say that… I was really impressed! The Fallout tv show feels a lot like the video game while also offering more than just the one point of view…

Star Wars Outlaws is the next big game in the space opera franchise. And now it has a story trailer and launch date. Check out the trailer below. Star Wars Outlaws is coming out on August 30th, 2024. The pre-order pack is a Kessel Runner bonus pack! It looks amazing. Graphics wise, there are parts of it that look live-action and others that look similar to the very best of Star Wars animated projects. The story looks super exciting. It…

I’ve been doing this since 2009, so I’ve heard a “consoles are dead” story or two. Each time they’ve been proven wrong. They’re based on faulty assumptions, or a misunderstanding of the gaming audience. This time feels different. I still don’t think consoles are going away. There will always be room for a box next to your TV. But it’s hard to see where the narrative falls apart in 2024. The whole notion of buying into a walled garden, a…

Lara Croft has been named the most iconic video game character of all time by the BAFTA Games Awards and my first thought was “what?” I mean, it makes sense. As someone who remembers the magazine covers, the cardboard cut-outs and the rave reviews from balding middle-aged non-gamer dads, I get it. She was the first character I remember truly transcending the medium. Mario and Sonic (mostly Sonic) might be more obvious. But they didn’t have a quarter of the…
