There may not be many surprises here, but it perhaps confirms what we all suspected. A new article from Jason Schreier has spilled the beans behind Redfall’s miserable development, and its critically poor reception. This isn’t an article revisiting what is already at Bloomberg. In short: Redfall was planned as a GaaS title, but direction was extremely muddled. Morale was low. Microsoft did nothing to fix the project. The most damning part, in my eyes, is that staff at Arcane…

Upgrades Metal Gear Remake Needs
Metal Gear Solid 3 is one of the greatest games ever made. But it’s also nearly twenty years old. Things have changed a lot since 2004. That means the recently announced Metal Gear Solid Δ Snake Eater – the actual real name of the remake – has a few easy targets they can hit to make massive improvements without doing anything controversial. Here I’m going to be talking a little bit about options the developers have for making a Metal…
Read MoreEverdream Valley Review in Progress
So I was given an opportunity to get my hands on Everdream Valley a little early ahead of it’s May 30th release date. Now I have been a fan of games like Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons and such, so it’s hard to find something new and exciting on the farming adventure kind of games with all of the competition. We do get quite alot of them honestly, but very few to the quality of the titles I…

Read MoreMia and the Dragon Princess Review
I’m a sucker for the old school FMV games. Playing them on my PC in the mid-late 90s and occasionally we get some on consoles now. The latest of which being Mia and the Dragon Princess, which don’t let the name fool you, the game is full of greatly coordinated fights, explosions, and action. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Mia dreams of adventure, but her feeling of responsibility to her workmates – who have become her surrogate family –…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me: The Return of Snake Eater
I was a huge fan of Metal Gear Solid on the PlayStation 2. The second game was my favorite but I did like Snake Eater a lot. So yesterday when a remake was revealed, I was excited but also a little unhappy because I don’t have a PlayStation 5. Then I looked online and it was revealed that the game is also coming to Xbox! I have one of those. I’m very excited for the Snake Eater remake. Let’s talk…
Read MoreShould We Be Worried About Metal Gear Solid 3?
Yes, a Metal Gear Solid 3 remake is in the works. And yes, it will be without Hideo Kojima. Should we be worried? I mean, it’s one of the greatest games of all time, filled with iconic moment after iconic moment. Any shift in tone would stick out like a cheese sandwich in a gourmet restaurant. And this is the internet. So there is always room for worry. However, a tidy bit of good news has potentially come out this…
Read MoreZelda: We Have the GOTY
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom comes out today, and I think it’s safe to say that it’s already probably going to be Game of the Year. I’m not basing that off any special knowledge. I’ve barely played the first, let alone the sequel. But sometimes a game causes such a stir, creates such a hype, that there’s no way it’s going any other direction. Last year it was Elden Ring. Nothing else was going to replace that…

Read MoreHorizon Burning Shores Review
Burning Shores is the DLC to Horizon Forbidden West and the latest in the Sci-Fi Adventure series. Burning Shores takes place in the immediate aftermath of Horizon Forbidden West, following the defeat of deluded Far Zenith warrior, Tilda. It’s largely a post-game add-on chapter, but teases the future of Horizon within its small-scale storyline, which introduces key players likely to return in a hypothetical third Horizon game. After the conclusion of the main campaign, this DLC summons you to LA…
