Does Darksiders’ New Style Signal a Shift for Action Games?

The release of Darksiders Genesis was a huge departure for the franchise, abandoning the traditional third-person action game format and opting instead for top-down gameplay. While this change, by itself, may not seem very significant, it does raise certain questions about the current landscape of gaming. More specifically, Darksiders' new style puts a giant question mark over future single-player action/adventure titles and how they will adapt to the ...

Can the Stadia Compatibility Update Sway Naysayers?

Stadia’s concept is a gamer’s paradise. The ability the pick-up your game right where you left off and play on any internet-connected device with complete fluidity is something out of a sci-fi novel or a nerd’s daydream (take your pick). So why then has Stadia had such a rocky beginning and what, if anything, can Google do to right the ship? Will the latest Stadia compatibility update be the life preserver Stadia seems to need, or will it be just…

While attempting to understand all of these different methods can seem like a daunting task, some of them are deceptively straightforward. Take, for instance, 1×2 betting, which is not intuitive whatsoever. In reality, all it signifies is betting on one of three possible outcomes of a sporting event, Team 1 win, Team 2 win or Draw ...

Couples Who Geek Together, Stay Together!

Something I learned early in life was that for a relationship to work, you both must accept the other for who they are, rather than trying to change them into someone you wish they were. A major part of that is embracing (or ideally sharing) each other's passions and hobbies. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, there has never been a better time to embrace your significant other's hobbies!

Frostpunk: The Last Autumn 1

Frostpunk: The Last Autumn DLC Review

Its most recent DLC, Frostpunk: The Last Autumn, brings you back to the time just before the ...

Diablo IV 1

My Hopes for Diablo IV

With the recent announcements around Diablo IV, the time is ripe for fans of the franchise to throw around their demands on the game and their (somewhat founded) fears that its release will be as rocky as its most recent predecessor's. While it is undeniable that Diablo III's release left much to be desired, the end product remained true to the franchise and did its best to address many issues that ran rampart in Diablo II, including botting and duping, which ...

PDP Afterglow Wireless Deluxe Controller Review

In recent times, PDP has solidified its position as a manufacturer of quality gaming accessories. Perhaps most notably among these is their line of controllers for the Nintendo Switch. While the Switch is undeniably a great console, many adult users (including myself) have a difficult time with the smaller JoyCon controls. This is completely reasonable, however, as they are intended to be used by kids as well. It does create a need, however, for larger and more ...

1stPlayer K8 Fire Dancing Kit Review

These days, most products are tailored to one specific function. It makes sense that having a singular focus will help create the best version of that product. It also means that it becomes harder to use that product for any purpose other than the one it was specifically made for. This is as true about gaming accessories as it is about anything else. For example, have you tried writing an essay on a mechanical keyboard? Sure the keystrokes might be quick, but ...
