I’m not sure there’s a more intense single-player racing experience than coming to the end of a long rally stage as the rain starts to spit. The time pops up at the checkpoint and you’re either a second ahead or behind the pace heading into the last stretch. Every time it happens in WRC 9 on Series X, I shift forward in my seat and try my darndest to hit each apex without careening off an edge and down a…

Immortals Fenyx Rising (aka Gods and Monsters) was originally announced at E3 2019 and instantly drew comparisons to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, rightfully so. The game is now officially launching on Dec 3, 2020, for basically every current console and PC. I had the opportunity to review the Switch version of the game, which I was interested in seeing how well another company can pull off a BOTW type game on a Nintendo console. But before we get ...

When Tetris Effect came to PS4 and PSVR in 2018, I largely wrote the game off because, well, Tetris is a game I’ve been playing all my life. It’s a great game, obviously, but I’ve never been particularly great at it. And why would I pay $40 for yet another iteration of the game? Well, I was wrong. Tetris Effect is worth every bit of $40. Two years later, Tetris Effect: Connected has launched alongside the Xbox Series X and…

In the console sim racing game world of Forza, Gran Turismo, Project Cars (well, the first two entries) and F1, the Assetto Corsa series can seem slightly inaccessible and less fully featured. I largely have ignored the series, assuming that I just wasn’t hardcore enough to get into it. Thankfully, at least with Assetto Corsa Competizione, I was wrong. The game was released on PC in 2019 and came to consoles this summer, touting its standing as the official ...

There are certain things we can rely on in life to have an annual release, Things like the Shamrock shake at McDonald’s, or they claymation Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer special during the holidays. Just Dance has been in that same category since it’s inception over a decade ago. With its infectious song lists bright colors and fancy unique choreography Just Dance has always been a fun time for all. While this year is the first time the game ...

The Campaign mode of Black Ops Cold War was designed and developed by Raven Software which was already designing a campaign based on the Cold War before Treyarch …

So many, many moons ago I fell in love with a game called Pokemon Snap. My wife (girlfriend at the time) and I would spend hours playing, laughing, and trying to figure out the best way to get all the Pokemon out and “capture” them. It’s been a very long time waiting for something similar to come out, and then came Bugsnax. Bugsnax is a first-person adventure game, in which players traverse Snaktooth Island trying to find and capture ...
