Jusant makes climbing its main mechanic and introduces a unique control method. Is the method fun? Is Jusant fun? Here is our review of Jusant for the Xbox Series. In Jusant you play as a wanderer who climbs up a mountain/tower. The story is revealed through letters and through cutscenes. There is no spoken or written dialogue in this game.…

In case you don’t know him, Hellboy is an agent of the B.P.R.D: Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense. Hellboy looks like a demon with sawed off horns and he investigates paranormal stuff.

I’ve been a hockey fan my entire life, and no matter where I have moved and lived, I’ve always worn my love for the Toronto Maple Leafs on my sleeves. NHL has always been a franchise I have loved, and still today it’s a fantastic simulation sports experience. With the new upgrades for the 2023-2024 season, I think NHL is as good as its ever been, but there are still a few issues I see. Updating the game Most sports…

It is the nature of modern games that they can change, and quickly. Luckily Sonic Frontiers is all about quick. Okay, puns aside, this is a game that has changed a lot since I reviewed it back in January, and not least because of the free Final Horizon DLC released at the end of last month. But is that enough to bring players back? My initial opinion on Sonic Frontiers is that it was a diamond in the rough. It…

With the FIFA tag gone, Electronic Arts has used their own branding on this years soccer release. While the FIFA name and imaging has been removed from the franchise, everything else remains. While this isn’t a huge leap over FIFA 23, there really wasn’t much that needed to be changed. EA Sports FC continues to be the best game produced by EA Sports, and for me it’s not even close! EA has moved to the Frostbite engine for EA Sports…

Assassin’s Creed has become one of those staple games we expect to see every couple of years, having been around the block a few times, Ubisoft is always looking for ways to reinvent the series. Going back to Origins, the game took a GIANT RPG leap forward and started to become a bigger and more robust experience since then. In many eyes, these games while great, often lost themselves and were just giant to be giant. Lots of collectables, side…

It’s been a hot minute since we have had a Forza Motorsport game, we had two great entries in the Horizon series since the last one. Has the time off given this series a chance to reinvent itself? Perhaps continue to absolutely master the art of racing games? Or does it just bring things back to the way they used to be? Yes to all of the above, kind of…. Forza Motorsport is a sim racing video game at its…

If you’d have told me that one of my favourite games of 2023 would be a Soulslike based on Pinocchio, I’d have laughed and laughed. And yet here we are. Lies of P takes the formula perfected by From in Dark Souls and Elden Ring and makes an impressive job at replicating it. This is addictive, dark and fun. It’s also difficult. Arguably it’s more difficult than some of the From games. But as always in this genre, there is…

Do you like farming games? Do you like dinosaurs? What if we told you there was a game where you could befriend dinosaurs and have them in a pen on a ranch? If this sounds good to you, then check out review of Paleo Pines for the Xbox Series! In Paleo Pines, you have a ranch and you farm. Seems normal so far yes? Well, you also have a dinosaurs on your farm and you can befriend more dinosaurs! Paleo…

It’s hard to put out a racing game today and not be compared to things like Forza or Gran Tourismo, which are the cream of the crop in the gaming world to be honest. But Ubisoft tries their damnedest with The Crew Motorfest. Eight years ago, with THE CREW 1, they  brought to life a vision of a shared open world filled with car adventures. They gave players the opportunity to experience the illegal street racing fantasy in the whole…
