People are talking about “the kiss” in the new gameplay trailer for The Last of Us Part 2, but is that really a big thing these days? Sony edited it in for a reason — yep, people are talking about it — but what’s really worth talking about in this game? Why should I watch… Read More »
The much-anticipated WW2 simulator, Post Scriptum, is coming soon. Very soon. Wait, not here yet? Okay, Spring is almost over, which means, it should be here any minute. Whenever a game pushes its release date, I get a bit wary — there’s a reason for it, after all. Sometimes, it’s a few last-minute tweaks to… Read More »
Not sure if Mr. Tarantino approved Reservoir Dogs: Bloody Days, but the game’s happening and the gameplay trailer shows an interesting QT-esque mechanic: rewind time, get in the head of a different character. Basically, it’s what it sounds like. Play with one character, go back in time, play the same moment with a different character. … Read More »
Last year’s gameplay trailer for Prey didn’t wow me, but the Hardware/Weapons video is a different story. Bethesda’s FPS/RPG (about a space station gone alien-hostile) has some gnarly goods. First up gnarly is a grenadish thing called a Recycler Charge. It’s like a mini-black hole. Throw it, sucks stuff in. Who doesn’t want a mini-black… Read More »

You wouldn’t think so, but after watching the entire 20-minute gameplay video for the new PlayStation exclusive, Horizon Zero Dawn, I think she’s got a shot. Click here to buy it on Amazon: First and foremost is our heroine Aloy’s… Read More »
Ghost Recon was my go-to game back in the day. I’m talking about the first Ghost Recon on the original Xbox. Six guys, two teams and 49 bad guys. Yup, 49. You can count them (and their bodies). No spawning endlessly like Ghost Recon 2. That was the Ghost Recon that shouldn’t have changed. But… Read More »
Resident Evil is going back to its roots, which is good news to end a pretty crazy 2016. It’s horror again. One place, one haunting, one madness. The only difference is that Resident Evil 7: Biohazard is first person, but the guns and puzzles are still there. And based on the trailer, we’re back to… Read More »
