The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild went on to perform extremely well for Nintendo across the Wii U and Switch both from a physical and digital perspective. Nintendo hasn't stopped singing its praises for roughly a year now, but just re...

Although in the grand scheme of things gaming is a luxury, I am glad I was born when I was. Getting to grow up with the classics from the Atari era on was a treat, in part because I could never predict quite how much I could put all of that...

Heroes of the Storm doesn't have the numbers that other MOBAs do streaming-wise, but this past week proves that it absolutely deserves to hang. Culminating in a nail-biting Finals series between the Korean team Gen G. and the European Team ...

With the success of Star Trek: Discovery on CBS's All Access, and that nasty business with its showrunner getting ousted for verbal abuse, CBS is full steam ahead with Alex Kurtzman leading the way on building their own corner of the S...

I'm bummed I couldn't clear enough room in my schedule to play Dreams at E3 this year, but realistically, that's for the best. Media Molecule's creation game isn't something I want to rush through knowing there's someone else waiting just o...

Dad switched from beer to whiskey immediately after breakfast. Things aren't going great. It's never explicitly stated, but there seems to be a dead mother in the mix. Dad's spirits aren't high, they're in the tumbler. Drain and flood, aga...

Avalanche Studios' Just Cause games are chaos incarnate. The open-world action series packs more explosions and high-speed stunts in a single hour than most titles manage during their entire runtime. Rico Rodriguez always felt more like a h...

At a glance, Serious Sam 4 might look like an open-world game. It isn't! It just has some really, really big levels. And with Croteam's new engine tech, the studio can fill said levels with an absurd amount of enemies. Tens of thousands of ...

A few minutes before I played my first match of Gearbox Software's Project 1v1, I was informed that Randy Pitchford refers to the game as "gladiatorial." Pitchford's ability to describe his studio's games with over-complicated, hyperbolic m...

I always like the idea of getting deep into fighting games, but my interest tends to wax and wane. Sometimes, I'll have delusions of grandeur, and get all fired up thinking I can stick with a single game for long enough to become competitiv...

After a hands-on demo with 10 Chambers Collective's GTFO, I'm not sure how anyone could expect to complete a level on their first try. The four-player cooperative shooter is punishing; its twisted, deformed enemies charge at you in packs, a...

After months of beta testing, PUBG's third map will finally be going live on regular servers. Called "Sanhok", the map will be a much smaller take on the sub-genre that PUBG popularized last year. The reduced size should make for shorter, m...

It seems that Fallout 76's beta will be coming to Xbox One first. The FAQ over on the official website was recently updated to include a string of text reading, "Please note that the B.E.T.A. for Xbox One will begin first, followed by other...

It seems like eons since we last heard anything about MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries. The game was originally on track for a December 2018 release but appears to have hit a bump in the road. Russ Bullock, president of Piranha Games Inc. (the st...

I've enjoyed covering the wild ride of the 3DS since the launch of the Switch. All signs point to the Switch taking over, and Nintendo has even said as much once it gets to the point where households are buying multiple units, but for now, ...

My appointment with Sega and Atlus at E3 probably could have gone a lot better. Nothing was really planned for me, and as such, my handlers for the session didn’t have everything in place for me to try out their games properly. There ...

Things can quickly go to shit in Overkill's The Walking Dead. I came into my E3 demo expecting as much, but I didn't know what form the cooperative first-person shooter would take, structurally. I got to play two missions: one was offense o...

While more recent Super Robot Wars games - such as V and X - have gotten English releases, many people don't realize that's only the tip of the iceberg for the franchise. The franchise has been going for 25 years to date, with usually at le...

After a literal two-month buildup to E3, the Show of Shows is finally in our rearview mirror. Was it good? I'm still not sure. But, if we zoom out a bit to years past, how often is E3 an unquestionable rousing success? Our expectations ofte...

Overcooked has been nothing short of a rousing success on Nintendo Switch. It had a rough launch, but with updates and improvements, it’s become a stand-out seller on the system, with Nintendo going so far as to mention the title by n...

For all the budget-conscious players out there, Sony is rolling out its first wave of PlayStation Hits starting next Thursday, June 28. You'll be able to pick up popular games like Bloodborne, Uncharted 4, Doom, and Yakuza 0 for $20 -- just...

A non-negligible percentage of the hardcore Rocket League community are obsessed over cosmetic item drops. They're the players who collect certified and painted variants of free items. They're the players who spend $1 to open every cra...

The latest issue of V-Jump has revealed the release date for Bandai Namco's ballistic brawler Dragon Ball FighterZ on Nintendo Switch, at least in Japan.Originally revealed during last week's E3 event, the popular fighting title will arrive...

"Man, Final Fantasy VII, that game rocked!" is a phrase I hear often from people who no longer touch video games. It was far from the best in the series but it's a cultural touchstone, and one I like breaking down all these years later. It ...
