When you’re signing up for a new betting website, you might be blown away by the sheer number of games on offer. These days it’s not unusual to see casinos offering up thousands of games, from video slots to roulette. But are they really? Because behind that huge number, you might find a surprisingly shallow offering. Spending a little time looking at your choices is a fantastic way of getting ahead of the game before you even spend a single…

India’s gambling laws can be a little daunting at first. But does that mean fans of the ever-adored cricket need to be careful how they gamble? Let’s find out… There are often questions about how much gambling people are allowed to do in India. This is because The Public Gambling Act of 1867 is still the law on gambling – so it’s a little bit out of date. More recent laws, including the Federal Information Technology Act (2011), ...

Although we’re more than halfway through 2022 now, a lot can change in the final four months of the year. The face of eSports could change – even temporarily – and today we’re going to discuss the games you should be watching. A new Call of Duty is on the horizon and Overwatch 2 will be released, and it’s going free-to-play too. Will these have any massive impact on the scene? Only time will tell, but no doubt they’ll draw…

In a lot of ways, the world is getting smaller. While it used to take weeks for a letter to reach over the Atlantic, now we are capable of doing it in less than a second. That has revolutionized the way that gambling works across the globe. Because while it used to be that you had to drive to a casino to enjoy your hobby – if there was even a casino around – today you only have to load…

Since Microsoft’s purchase of Bethesda was confirmed, there’s been one thing on everybody’s lips. The return of Fallout: New Vegas. Yeah, there were some other advantages for Microsoft as well. Starfield, a boost to their WRPG exclusive – that kind of thing. But yeah, the real potential was in some kind of return for Fallout: New Vegas. And apart from a few rumours, there has been no news. No DLC-laden ultimate edition running at 4K on ...

It was ten years ago that the first series of Telltale’s The Walking Dead changed how we think about those kinds of video games. And maybe all video games. Two seasons into the TV series, fans found a new way of looking at the fictional Walker-fied universe – but it didn’t stop there. Thanks to being available on every single device in existence, as well as the episodic format, it quickly spread to a more casual audience. It wasn’t ...

Sony has reacted to the Activision purchase to regulators, and it is an eye opening glimpse behind the curtain. Without all the bluster and PR of companies on the public stage, we see what Sony thinks are the biggest threats of Microsoft buying Activision. To be fair, this isn’t necessarily their true feelings. Call of Duty is a huge title on PlayStation. They want the sale blocked. It makes sense to overegg the despair. But taken at face value, we…

Diablo Immortal passed more than $100,000,000 in revenue in just eight weeks since it launched. That has caused some panic in the community. Rightly so, I guess. When a popular hardcore IP launches on mobile it’s always cause for concern. Remember when EA revived a bunch of beloved franchises like Dungeon Keeper for mobile and completely messed it up? Unfortunately, yes. we remember that. But the issue there is more about chasing what’s immediately ...

If there was any company that could do a Super Smash Bros clone, it would be Warner Brothers. They have the variety and the history to pull it off. So the oddly named Multiversus should be a Space Jam-style slam dunk right? Like all free-to-play games, it’s not an easy question to answer. The game could be the best thing ever and if the monetization is wrong, then you’ll walk away from the experience feeling bitter. Unfortunately here, there are…

What makes a good game? Is it knights with giant swords, or robots with death rays? Is it really fast cars? Epic adventures in unknown lands? PowerWash Simulator is the latest game to prove it doesn’t have to be any of those things. Actually, my first few hours with it were regularly punctuated with the phrase “I’m not even sure I’m enjoying it”. Which, incidentally, is said about as much whenever I have to do a real-life chore. ...
