What a roller coaster ride for Street Fighter V since it launched earlier this year on Playstation 4 and PC. From server issues, lack of content and messaging by Capcom in it’s first months, casual and tournament level players have been dealing with numerous issues. On the competitive side of things, “eight frames” has been […]
The Hitman series has always been a game about planning, execution and when those two things fail you: improvisation. Since the days of Hitman: Blood Money, those nuances of the game have perhaps fallen by the wayside, but with the addition of the Elusive Target contracts, these immersive elements are back in a bigger way than ever. My […]
In case you missed EA’s E3 2016 press conference last week, one of their big highlights was them giving an outlook on their Star Wars portfolio for the next two years. For Star Wars Battlefront, more DLC is still coming, a X-Wing VR mission by Criterion Games (yes those guys) and a proper sequel next […]
E3 2016 has come and gone with tons of games to be excited about for the next year, VR still coming along and the future slowly becoming a reality with the upgraded consoles talk. However, there’s always trends that come out of the show from multiple games having similar mechanics and cheesy moments from the […]
Sony took to the stage to finish off the day of conferences and they really didn’t mess around.

I really liked this addition overall but their introduction did drag on slightly. However when that was over […]

We’re less than a month away from E3 2016 and the rumor trains have been starting to roll in. While some big names already got announced ahead of the show such as Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2, we believe there’s still lots of surprises in store for Los Angeles next […]
Very few have tried to take their stab at the “Souls” formula seen in From Software’s popular franchise and Bloodborne. Last year we had Lords of the Fallen, which was a Westernized take on a Souls game, but it was too derivative of From Software’s efforts. Surprisingly, there aren’t many Japanese games trying to cash […]
Companies trying to bring PC dominated genres to consoles have been a constant struggle for decades. Real time strategy games today still struggle to work well on consoles because of how faster inputs happen on PC for them, but first person shooters other than a handful have been the exception. If we remember 2016 for the […]
To lay the groundwork for the next Final Fantasy epic Square-Enix has released the FFXV Platinum Demo. It gives you a taste of the world you’ll be going through along with the combat system and controls. In honor of this I will be going over all the things that stood out to me on the […]
