16.8.2024
Four years after it was announced, Black Myth: Wukong is finally in the hands of critics who have reviewed the third-person action RPG ahead of its August 20 release. The general consensus seems to be that while the upcoming game looks great and has some cool boss designs, it’s buggy, too easy,...

I Am Once Again Asking Developers To Stop Making Collector’s Editions Without The Game
15.8.2024
I have largely moved away from buying collector’s editions over the past decade, and so I was probably not going to buy Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s pseudo-special edition, called “Rook’s Coffer,” to begin with. If I don’t see something that I might actually use in the big box of collectibles...

Pick Up Bloodborne, The Best Game Ever, On Sale This Month
15.8.2024
The more I sit with it, the more confident I am that Bloodborne may actually be my favorite game of all time. It’s got some stiff competition, but my mind just comes back to FromSoftware’s deeply gothic (and maternal) nightmare more often than it does anything else. It’s also one of the studio’s...

Legacy Of Kain Collection Is Getting The Weirdest Port Ever
15.8.2024
The early Legacy of Kain games aren’t just interesting puzzle action RPGs full of demonic horrors and mysticism, they’re also perfect time capsules for a certain type of jaggy-edged ‘90s PlayStation game that’s currently riding a wave of nostalgic revival. Now who’s ready to play them on a neat...
Why You Ought To Grab Final Fantasy VII Remake For Cheap While You Can
15.8.2024
Final Fantasy VII Remake is probably one of the boldest left turns in modern games. I won’t get into exactly why, as I still believe in trying to maintain the experience of playing it and seeing it for yourself, but you just have to believe me when I say that the remake of one of the most legendary...

Persona 3 Reload's The Answer DLC Shows How The Series Should Do Epilogues
15.8.2024
I have complicated feelings on how the Persona series (and the Shin Megami Tensei series at large) handles its updated “definitive editions.” Persona 4 Golden and Persona 5 Royal are undoubtedly the best versions of their respective games, adding dozens of hours of new story, characters...

Back in 2012, Remedy put out Alan Wake, a pulpy third-person shooter about a troubled author literally battling the forces of darkness, as well as his own demons, with a flashlight and a gun.
