As a huge fan of the original Mario Maker title on Nintendo Wii U and Nintendo 3DS, I was incredibly excited when Nintendo announced that Mario Maker 2 would be heading to the Nintendo Switch this June. Despite my excitement, however, I also had a few questions I needed answering, most notably, "How much more can they really add to this experience?" Yesterday's Nintendo Direct answered that 10 times over, and then some! Let's dive in!

Read MoreSniper Elite V2 Remastered Review
Earlier this week, one of the most acclaimed covert shooter games was re-released with Sniper Elite V2 Remastered hitting the virtual shelves of PC’s Steam store (as well as Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch) on Monday. Fans of the series will likely be relieved to hear that the game is indeed a clean remaster – little to no content has been modified outside of the visual improvements to the game and an expansion of the multiplayer game mode. Is this remaster worthwhile enough to bring fans of the series back to a title that was originally released in 2012? ...

Read MoreMy Big Sister Review
I’ve played games where there are a lot of blood, cursing, and disturbing moments but I have never played a game like My Big Sister before.

Read MoreWorld War Z Review
Bullets, bodies, buddies. Need we say more? World War Z uses its simplistic genius in an attempt to topple giants of the industry with its madly entertaining co-op gameplay.
