What do you get when you cross Paper Mario with the movie Coco? You might get Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo. Let’s talk about this unique game that’s now available on Xbox Gamepass. Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo is now available on Xbox Gamepass and on other systems. The game stars Kulebra, a snake-like bone creature that finds himself in limbo. There are souls trapped here that can’t move on and its up to Kulebra to help them.…

How much is a game worth to you? I’m not talking a specific game. Not the wishlist, dream game that you’d trade your firstborn for. Just a game. $80? My guess is it isn’t even close. The average gamer isn’t spending anywhere near that much. Maybe a few times a generation or in support of a certain publisher. Perhaps you’ll splurge at Christmas or when a console launches. But those are outliers. Factor in deals, bundles, deep discounts and what…

Just a few short weeks after we were all bouncing up and down about the Oblivion remaster, a new rumour has sprung up. Rockstar are working on bringing Grand Theft Auto 4 to PlayStation and Switch. That should tell you everything you need to know right there. Skipping Xbox (and PC for now) implies that this is just a straight port, bringing the fourth numbered entry in the legendary franchise to audiences who currently can’t access it. The game is…

I’ve been playing Towerborne’s game preview on Xbox Series a little bit and thought I’d share some thoughts on the game so far. How is Towerborne? Towerborne is a sidescrolling beat ‘em up with rpg elements. You create your character, choose a class and go on missions where you fight enemies in a sidescrolling beat ‘em up fashion. There is a hub world and also a world map. The game has a cartoon-like drawn style to it. It’s a neat…

Nintendo Switch 2 will be out soon. And then it won’t be too much longer before the PS6 pops up and Xbox Series is on its way out the door. Lately, I’ve felt that I’m at a crossroads. I’m unsure about where gaming will take me next. So today I’ll talk about what I’m thinking. Will I still be gamer in the future? The Nintendo Switch 2 is coming out in June and…I can’t get it. I can’t afford the…

At a time when the house of cards that is the old games industry looks set to topple, Grand Theft Auto 6 will send standards skyrocketing. On the surface that might seem like a good thing. It isn’t. We saw it with Baldur’s Gate 3. The “why can’t” conversations. Why can’t big publishers do it if a relatively small indie can? Why can’t RPG makers focus on this or that, instead of this or that. When something hits and hits…

Rockstar has delayed GTA6. It’s unsurprising. As games continue to get bigger and gaps between titles longer, this is something we’re going to have to learn to live with. It’s nothing new. That once-in-a-generation title you’ve been waiting for has been pushed back again. It doesn’t have to be GTA6. Pick a game you’re looking forward to and there’s a good chance it’ll see some sort of delay. This isn’t a major problem in the grand scheme of things. It’s…

A few weeks ago, our own Kevin Austin took a run through Japan in Assassin’s Creed Shadows, and thoroughly enjoyed his time with the game. Ubisoft Canada was nice enough to share an additional code on the PlayStation 5 for myself to play the game, and I was instantly blown away by the character building the team did early on in the experience. Assassin’s Creed Shadows starts pretty slow, and doesn’t really unleash you on the massive world for well…

Clair Obscur Expedition 33 came out today on Game Pass. I got up really early this morning and started playing it. I haven’t wanted to stop but felt like I needed to write about the game. Here are my first thoughts on Clair Obscur Expedition 33. Clair Obscur Expedition 33 came out today on Game Pass. I’ve been playing it a lot this morning. What do I think of the game so far? In Clair Obscur Expedition 33, a turn-based…
