Aion 2
Bradford has been playing Aion 2 since launch and is here with the first part of his review. Read on for our initial thoughts on the latest MMO from NC.
Like all MMOs, big or small, Stars Reach has run into the typical launch issues that inevitably plague the genre. But once you get through the early moments, there are definitely flashes of brilliance.
007 First Light might be one of the best Bond games made, warts and all.
Windrose hit early access earlier this month, and Bradford has been sailing the high seas in search of plunder. Here is his review of the early access hit.
Bradford has spent the last two weeks hunkered down in Crimson Desert, Pearl Abyss' first game since Black Desert Online. How does it stack up?
It’s been almost a month since Amazon launched its soft relaunch of its flagship MMO, with New World: Aeternum hitting digital shelves across PC, Xbox Series S|X, and PlayStation 5. Built on the bones of its 2021 MMORPG, this relaunch brings in console players to what was a PC-exclusive for...

Final Fantasy VII REBIRTH has an odd task as the middle entry in an eventual three-part RPG series. REBIRTH, for its part, has to simultaneously bring some resolution to the lingering questions brought on by 2020’s Final Fantasy VII REMAKE, set up the final chapter in the series, while also...
Assassin's Creed Mirage is a return to the series' roots in a sense, bringing players to 9th Century Baghdad. But how does it stack up so far compared to the recent series entries?
Throughout my nearly 130 hours of Baldur’s Gate 3, I could not help but be astounded by the sheer flexibility the CRPG showed in allowing me to push things along my own way. From getting into a drinking contest with a bloated, undead carcass to bypassing long encounters thanks to...
