You can take comfort here knowing I am not going to give away any story elements here in this review. After all, that’s the main fun in playing the Life is Strange series, isn’t it. Life Is Strange: True Colors is a graphic adventure played from a third-person view. The player controls the protagonist, Alex Chen, to explore various locations in the fictional setting of Haven Springs and communicate with non-playable characters through the ...

Halo Infinite Campaign showcased today
After not hearing or seeing a peep about it in over a year, Microsoft finally pulled pack the curtain a little on the Halo Infinite campaign today in a video showcase. While they have been very forthcoming in letting folks know all about (and even play a bunch of times) the multiplayer aspects of the game.

Read MoreRanking Far Cry’s Villians
Far cry is known for interesting landscapes, great gunplay, and tons of action, but what makes the series stand out is its amazing cast of villains. They truly are the standouts in the series even shadowing the heroes. While some are more memorable than others for sure, they are all deserving of their role, so let us break down the badest of the bad.
Read MoreFar Cry 6 Review
Far Cry 6 is finally upon us, after some delays and a huge marketing campaign that you basically can't escape, it is time to step into the land of Yara and go toe to toe with Anton Castillo (Giancarlo Esposito). As a fan of the Far Cry series for quite some time, I was eager to dive into a full game again after Far Cry 5. New Hope was ok at best but wasn't the full experience I was craving or looking for. Far Cry 6, however, is BIGGER, BOLDER, and BADDER than ...
Read MoreRiMS Racing Review
I’ve never played a racing game like RiMS Racing, and its core unique mechanic is both the thing that makes the game stand out, and is also the thing that sometimes make the game tedious to progress through.

The core concept of the game is that it’s part racing sim, part mechanic sim. Instead of earning more advanced bikes during the ...

Read MoreDo People Value Reviews? An Answer in Numbers
Video gaming, like any industry, has its bad apples. In some cases, these are great, worm-infested balls of mushed pulp but, mercifully, the most that consumers have to deal with on a day-to-day basis are a few misshapen fruits. To put that in more relevant terms, bugs, delays, and expensive micro transactions have become something of a problem that gamers need to anticipate and avoid. Pre-release Reviews Due to the above, the review industry has carved out a ...
