I could go on about this game for ages, but I’m purposefully trying to avoid spoilers here on the off chance that some of you still haven’t played Breath of the Wild. 2017 has already been host to some fantastic games. But none of them can truly hold a candle...
Until Mario Kart 8 Deluxe ships in April, there’s really no better competitive game on the Switch, and if old school action games like this are your cup of tea, then Super Bomberman R is definitely for you. If instead you’re looking for a meaty single player experience, I’d suggest...
No Man's Sky
No Man’s Sky is a hard game to quantify. I mean, we initially included it on MMORPG’s list because we (along with many others) expected it to be a multiplayer experience akin to say Elite: Dangerous. But as launch drew closer, we began to realize that No Man’s Sky is...
Dark Souls II
Dark Souls 3 is the not-so-long awaited sequel to 2014’s Dark Souls 2, the series of Action RPGs from From Software which has earned their fanbase through punishing difficulty. When I sat down a little more than a week ago with the PC port of Dark Souls 3, I expected...
When we first heard about Rebel Galaxy, from Torchlight creators Erich Schaefer and Travis Baldree at their new studio Double Damage, we were floored. How could we not be excited about a procedural space-faring single-player RPG adventure with a full economy, factional warfare system storyline, and endless replayability? Turns...
Mad Max
Mad Max, from Warner Bros. Interactive and Avalanche Studios is very obviously a labor of love for both companies. It’s got the lore hooks from the films, it nails the tone and look of Miller’s recent film, and it’s also got some of the best car-based combat in games today....
I want to play Skyforge. But when I play it, and I immediately regret my decision. It’s at once both a fun game and a frustrating mess, and I can’t stress enough that everyone try it for themselves. For some of you in trying Skyforge, you’ve found a new go-to...
Almost without noticing, I’ve fallen in love with Geralt of Rivia. It’s not weird, or even sexual, so don’t giggle. If you’re playing The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, chances are you’re with me. After two fantastic earlier entries of the series, it feels like CD Projekt Red has nearly perfected...
Bloodborne is the not-quite-sequel to Dark Souls II that PS4 gamers have been dying for since it was first announced. But can From Software and Sony Japan Studio’s hardcore action RPG live up to the hype? From the very start, developers and press alike have been claiming that Bloodborne has...
The Crew
Ubisoft’s The Crew was always going to either be A.) a resounding dud or B.) a pleasantly fun racing experience. And depending upon who you ask, I’m pretty sure that’s the range of answers you’ll get. The Crew’s worth picking up if you’re fan of arcade racers and love...
Last week we had our first impressions of Deck 13’s Lords of the Fallen, an obvious homage the punishingly difficult action RPG Dark Souls. In our final review we explore the ups and downs of the game now that we’ve had time to finish it, and while it never really...
Styx: Master of Shadows is the brand new Stealth RPG from Cyanide Studios set in the same world as 2012’s Of Orcs and Men, though taking place long before the story of that game. You play the titular role of Styx, an expert goblin thief as he tries to break...
