I really admire the kind of vibe developer Supermassive Games is trying to build and, in some ways, recreate with its annual series of Tales from the Crypt-esque interactive ghost stories. The Dark Pictures Anthology may have officially kicked off last year with the release of Man of Medan, but any PS4 fan will tell...
Because the current world we’re living in isn’t quite dystopian enough for Ubisoft Toronto, Watch Dogs: Legion has finally arrived to let us roam a politically crippled near-future London that’s now being policed by a private military outfit. Brexit has happened, job losses are abundant due to the increased reliance on tech and, oh, the...
The end of the month means its time to discuss what freebies PS Plus subscribers have to look forward to. November is obviously notable for marking the release of next-gen consoles obviously, so it’s also our first opportunity to see how PS Plus titles on PlayStation 5 will be handled going forward, too. Something tells...
Well, well, well… It’s here. We’ve made it. November 2020 is not only a month stacked with huge video game releases, but it is in fact the month responsible for kicking off the next generation of consoles. And as you might imagine, this means that November is stacked with Triple-A releases to sink your teeth...
Imagine my surprise when I discovered that it had been a staggering five years between the release of this and the previous Transformers game. Because although they’re by no means limited to them, these robots in disguise have been the subject of many video game tie-ins throughout the years - with varying results at best....
Graphics aren’t everything in a game but a wildly engaging art style goes a long way, with the indie scene constantly impressing through experimental colour palettes and character designs that simply don’t look like anything you’ll likely see from a major Triple-A studio. 9 Monkeys of Shaolin is a new side-scrolling beat-em-up proving this sentiment...
Never has a video game sequel received a more apt subtitle than Crash Bandicoot 4. Because while 2018's N. Sane Trilogy served as a nice reminder of how charming (and sometimes infinitely frustrating) the marsupial's original three outings could be, it is indeed “about time” this spin-powered 90s icon received the modernisation he deserves. Luckily,...
We may be on the verge of the next generation, with the PS5, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X now all coming over the horizon, but that's not stopped Sony from announcing not one, not two, not three but four new PS4 bundles to tie-in with the latest edition of EA's mega footballing franchise,...
The end of the month marks an exciting time for PS Plus and Games with Gold subscribers, as soon you’ll be able to download August’s crop of FREE titles. On offer this month is a wide gamut of titles spanning a good variety of genres, whether you’re into to hardcore military shooters or party games...
The original Destroy All Humans! released in 2005 was notable for just how different it felt at the time. Whereas other third-person action games seemed content to cast you as an overly butch hero perfectly equipped to lay waste to henchmen, aliens or monsters, here was a game that flipped the script and let you...
Following May’s Xbox digital presentation that highlighted all the third-party software arriving on the Series X, today saw Microsoft give us a good look at Halo Infinite, Psychonauts 2 and plenty more first-party exclusive titles as part of the Xbox Games Showcase. There was a pre-show beforehand where various interesting indies were announced, but it...
We have a deep dive into all the new game releases for August 2020.
Dialled-in players will have noticed that we are now well past the time of year when Activision would typically announce the next Call of Duty. It’s all but confirmed that Treyarch will be the next developer stepping up to the plate, but still the Triple-A publisher has been silent as to which subseries will return...
Microsoft’s Project xCloud will be FREE for Game Pass Ultimate subscribers from September | Console Deals Gaming Blog.
Pro Evolution Soccer finds itself in a very weird position in 2020. Last year’s entry saw it undergo a slight rebrand by sticking the term “eFootball” in the title, and now Konami has announced that FIFA’s biggest rival will be forgoing a new release this year in favour of a new seasonal update that will...
