Playing Games Wrong and Breaking the System

I’ve started playing games wrong, and I’ve got to say it’s feeling pretty right. This won’t be a new idea to some people, especially those who’re deep into achievements. But it’s something I recommend for everybody, if only to shake things up at a time when games aren’t spending much time rewriting the rules. The biggest games are so slick now. You barely have to play them. They put the maximum amount of energy into making everything look epic and…

Games Are Getting Too Damn Big

Death Stranding 2 has a photo mode that will influence the way the story plays out. It also has in-game concerts. The attention to detail is incredible. But come on Kojima, I have a life.

But its need to completely dominate my free time is frustrating. I’ve enjoyed every single…

Jason Schreier’s new book on Blizzard goes into some detail on the inner workings of Overwatch. He shared a shorter version on Reddit. The further abridged version is that the team behind making Overwatch such a success were cautious in hiring new people in case it changed their company culture. They tried to feed the original Overwatch and make an…

EA FC 25 Review – Worth Getting for One Mode?

Over the past week, I have been doing a lot of two different things – playing EA FC 25 and reading previous reviews I’ve written for past soccer titles. And there is one constant across all the reviews I’ve written, at least for the last few years. And that constant is, if you are a hardcore fan of EA FC then purchase this year’s iteration; if you are a casual fan and you own last years game, just continue playing…
