Metal Gear Solid 3 is one of the greatest games ever made. But it’s also nearly twenty years old. Things have changed a lot since 2004. That means the recently announced Metal Gear Solid Δ Snake Eater – the actual real name of the remake – has a few easy targets they can hit to make massive improvements without doing anything controversial. Here I’m going to be talking a little bit about options the developers have for making a Metal…

More Thoughts From Me: The Return of Snake Eater
I was a huge fan of Metal Gear Solid on the PlayStation 2. The second game was my favorite but I did like Snake Eater a lot. So yesterday when a remake was revealed, I was excited but also a little unhappy because I don’t have a PlayStation 5. Then I looked online and it was revealed that the game is also coming to Xbox! I have one of those. I’m very excited for the Snake Eater remake. Let’s talk…
Read MoreShould We Be Worried About Metal Gear Solid 3?
Yes, a Metal Gear Solid 3 remake is in the works. And yes, it will be without Hideo Kojima. Should we be worried? I mean, it’s one of the greatest games of all time, filled with iconic moment after iconic moment. Any shift in tone would stick out like a cheese sandwich in a gourmet restaurant. And this is the internet. So there is always room for worry. However, a tidy bit of good news has potentially come out this…
Read MoreUncharted: EU Accepts Activision Merger
The Activision-Microsoft merger has been accepted in the EU, and that means we’re in uncharted territory. It’ll be the first of many to approve the purchase – and nobody knows for certain what that means at this stage. The CMA – the UK’s market authority – recently blocked the deal. And there’s very little way to circumnavigate that. You can appeal, but that most likely means that it’ll just come back around to the CMA again. Who, presumably, will have…
Read MoreZelda: We Have the GOTY
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom comes out today, and I think it’s safe to say that it’s already probably going to be Game of the Year. I’m not basing that off any special knowledge. I’ve barely played the first, let alone the sequel. But sometimes a game causes such a stir, creates such a hype, that there’s no way it’s going any other direction. Last year it was Elden Ring. Nothing else was going to replace that…

There is no E3 this year but Summer Game Fest looks like it’ll be taking over. There will be updates from over 40+ partners, publishers and developers, at the event. We have some thoughts on the event below. Summer Game Fest has been a mixed bag in the past. There have been some good things announced and some alright things. This year is looking a bit better however since some Japanese developers will be there too. Playstation, Sega, Capcom, Square…
Read MoreTHERE’S The Redfall Hype
Last week I asked where the hype for Redfall was. Then the reviews were released. It has not fared well, and that’s not good news for Xbox. The Metacritic score currently sits at 64 on Xbox Series X and 62 on PC. Commentary on the game is, to say the least, mixed. Multiple outlets are talking about failed experiments, trying to venture into the wrong genre and Arkane ignoring their own design principles to bring in a multiplayer element. There…

Star Wars Jedi Survivor isn’t the only video game Star Wars experience at the moment. Star Wars will be joining Fortnite! Check out the trailer below. When Fortnite first came to Nintendo Switch, I got into it a little. Eventually, I wandered away from it though. And now…Star Wars has joined the latest battle pass for Fortnite. It looks amazing too! I especially think Darth Maul looks cool in Fortnite, but all of the other characters looks neat too. Will…
Read MoreIs The Microsoft/Activision Merger Dead?
Is the merger between Microsoft and Activision dead? The short answer might just be yes, but things are never that simple. There’s always been one major threat to this purchase, which has been going on nearly 18 months now. That was the UK’s CMA finding a reason to block it. Well, the CMA found a reason to block it. The CMA cannot really be challenged. At best Microsoft might get them to look at it again, and the same conclusion…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me: Restoring the Jedi Order
A brand new Star Wars game, Jedi Survivor, is out right now. I haven’t had the chance to play that game yet, but I did start playing Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order (the prequel to Survivor) recently. I thought I’d talk about that a bit. Back in 2020, I talked about Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and how much I liked it. It was one of my favorite games of 2019! And so you’d think I would’ve have finished it……
