    Metal Gear Survive

    The only twisting this game is doing is at the private parts (trying to keep it PG) of Metal Gear Solid fans. Metal Gear Survive is basically the result of Konami execs sitting down and asking the question, "How can we hijack the name of a beloved series and use it to create a game that has...

    Crysis 2

    Well for starters, I'll point out the obvious: this game is freakin' gorgeous. The textures, the animations, the particle effects, everything is absolutely beautiful in this game. But, is there more to it than just eye candy? I answer that with a hesitant "meh?" Was it a fun game? Sure. The...

    Multi Fallout 76

    It's a bit upsetting that this is the direction the Fallout series is heading in. Fallout 4 was already a very divisive entry. People new to the series loved it, but many longtime fans were pretty upset with it, myself included. The gameplay was alright, but it just didn't feel like a Fallout...

    Nintendo Smash Bros. Ultimate GameCube Controller Pre-Order

    This honestly made me chuckle a little bit, and I'll explain why. But before I continue, I want to make it clear that I don't hate Nintendo by any means. Nintendo pretty much made my childhood, and I'll forever love them for that. But anyway, I chuckled because the first thing I thought to...

    Other Gaming disorder is a disease

    The question is, when does being a gamer cross the line from lifestyle/fandom to addiction? I mean, video games are literally some people's lives. A lot of people these days have created careers out of playing video games. YouTube Let's Players, Twitch streamers, eSports competitors; these are...

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    Oh, Call of Duty. I started out my online FPS career with Call of Duty 2. While everyone was addicted to Counter-Strike, Call of Duty 2 had my undivided attention. I honestly thought they couldn't improve on that fantastic multiplayer experience. And then Modern Warfare came out. Not only did...

    God of War

    God of War is such a fantastic franchise. While the series may have had some misses--I'm looking at you, Chains of Olympus and Ascension--just about every game in the main line grew to be a classic among gamers. This latest entry is no exception. Unfortunately, I myself haven't gotten the chance...

    PS4 Exclusives vs Xbox One Exclusives?

    I don't own either a PlayStation 4 nor an Xbox One, so I can pretty much give an unbiased opinion on the matter. I generally feel that the PS4 has been severely outdoing Xbox this generation. Last generation, both sides were fairly evenly matched. I'd actually dare to say that the Xbox 360 had...

    Fornite vs PUBG

    I finally bought a ticket for a ride on the meme train that is the Battle Royale genre, and I can now actually form a solid opinion on these games. I hate both. Okay hate is a strong word, but the truth is I just don't have enough time these days to allocate to either of these games. Battle...

    Why EA are wrong about singleplayer games

    I can understand this perspective, but I don't think that we're discussing EA Sports here. I've mostly played soccer games from EA Sports, and I can agree that playing against the computer is awful. They're super easy to fool and eventually the game just becomes tedious. But the thing is that...

    Why EA are wrong about singleplayer games

    I get that there is a huge community of gamers out there who only care about multiplayer. They are competitive people who live to compete with other gamers online. But there are also plenty of folks who view multiplayer as nothing more than a bonus mode, and I'm one of those people. To me, games...

    Far Cry 4

    I played this for two hours and then never came back to it again. It isn't even because it's a particularly bad game or anything. All things considered, it's actually a very solid open-world FPS. The problem is that all it felt like to me was an expansion pack for Far Cry 3. I enjoyed Far Cry 3...

    Dark Souls Remastered Console Test

    I'm glad to say that the PC version of Dark Souls Remastered runs incredibly well. I get a constant (and I mean quite literally constant) solid 60 FPS with no dips. However, and this is a pretty big however, the Sif and Nito fights are complete trash. I don't know what From Software did to screw...

    Could PlayStation make a PS4-Switch Hybrid?

    While I question the odds of this actually happening, I don't doubt that it's definitely possible Sony would try to pull something like this. It's happened in the past. Nintendo dominated the handheld market, and Sony wanted a piece of that action, which ended up with the birth of the PSP/Vita...

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    I myself don't own a Switch because they're just too darn expensive where I live, but a while back, a relative of mine from back in the U.S visited me with her Switch. She happened to bring along Breath of the Wild, and boy am I glad she did. We had a couple of gaming nights, and she honestly...
