The discussion on DLC is always a bit biased, and it’s been the same for the announcement of Elvish-language DLC for the upcoming Lord of the Rings: Gollum game. I think it’s pretty cool. Elves in the game speak a bit of their own language, Sindarin. Well, purchasing this DLC adds more of it to the game, which is due at the end of May. It’s optional, included in the special edition and beats a random costume or digital art…

Disney Speedstorm the new IT Kart Racer on Switch?
Over the past half week or so, I’ve been taking a deep dive into Disney Speedstorm, the soon-to-be free-to-play Disney kart racing game from Gameloft. Right now, as an early access title, the only way to get into the experience is to purchase one of the three founders bundles. Gameloft hooked me up with a copy of the game last week, and after almost a dozen hours across 7 tracks, I think it’s fair to say we might have a…
Read MoreMinecraft Legends Review (Second Opinion)
Minecraft Legends is an upcoming action strategy video game being developed by Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive, and published by Xbox Game Studios. It is officially slated to release on April 18, 2023. Now this isn’t the first spinoff from the ULTRA successful Minecraft series, you may remember Minecraft Dungeons from a few years ago, which I had a lot of fun with honestly. Can they do it again with Minecraft Legends? First off I highly encourage you to check…

Born of Bread is an upcoming indie turn-based rpg. Check out the newest gameplay trailer for the game and our thoughts below. Born of Bread is coming out this summer to Nintendo Switch, PS5, Xbox Series S/X, and PC. The game is a turn-based rpg with a unique 2.5D graphical style.

Read MoreMLB The Show 23 Review
It’s opening day for the MLB, which means warmer weather and sunshine are heading our way. Overpriced beer and hot dogs all around, buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks and all that stuff. Oh, yea and MLB the Show 23 is out now of course. The best way to experience all the thrills of the sport, and arguably much more entertaining than watching it on TV. As expected, The Show 23 once again is hands down the best-looking sports…
Read MoreMicrosoft Activision Merger Takes Leap Forward
The biggest going concern for the Microsoft/Activision merger was the UK’s regulatory body shutting it down. The CMA is all-powerful and didn’t seem overly keen on the deal going through. Some analysts put it finishing at as low as 15%. But that all changed yesterday. In a massively rare move, the CMA revised its provisional findings and decided that the console market wasn’t at threat from the merger. In layman’s terms, Microsoft could remove Call of Duty from PlayStation and…

Read MoreSuicide Squad Might Be Delayed… But It’s Not Enough
When Suicide Squad was shown at the Sony direct, it received mixed reaction. I filed it under “play in a sub service” and didn’t think about it again. Apparently that wasn’t enough for some people. According to Bloomberg, the game has ended up being delayed. This follows backlash from fans. Despite that, it will still likely hit this year. So don’t expect it to suddenly become Arkham City 2. I wrote the other day about how sometimes it seems developers…
Read MoreWo Long: In On The Ground Floor
One of the big releases of this week has been Wo Long, the Soulslike set within the Three Kingdoms period of China. I’ve not played it much, but I’ve enjoyed what I’ve seen. And the most amazing thing? I was in on the ground floor. In all the talk about subscription services, it tends to be the value that comes up the most. People will get really excited about the prospect of getting something for (seemingly) nothing, especially if that…
Read MoreLike a Dragon Ishin! Review
Like a Dragon (formerly known as Yakuza) can be a tough series to get into, with many installments in the series it can be confusing on where the best place is to jump in. It also can be a little too off the wall for some people, with the random karaoke breaks and off the wall narratives. Like a Dragon Ishin! However, is a very different kind of game, while yes it has the same characters known throughout the series,…
