Sony paid more than $3b for Halo creators Bungie, which on the face of it doesn’t entirely add up. They don’t really have much in the way of IP and, besides, part of the deal will see them keep their independence. That includes the independence to publish games on Xbox. The house of PlayStation paid almost half of what Microsoft paid for Zenimax. And yet, on the face of it, they will not be getting half-a-Zenimax worth of content. It’s…

  Well it’s certainly been a week of fumbles for Ghostwire Tokyo this week. PlayStation has uploaded a new video to its YouTube channel that’s set to premiere tomorrow night, and in the description, it mentions a PS5 release on 25th March 2022. The PS Store leak pegged the console exclusive a day earlier. RockPaperShotgun has accidentally published a preview for Ghostwire Tokyo. In that article, the publication claimed that this new game will release on March 24th. Moreover, RPS…

Shohei Ohtani put together what could be considered one of the greatest single seasons in MLB history. One could say it was superhero like, we sure did. With that in mind and knowing Shohei’s love for manga and anime the decision was clear. A normal Collector’s Edition cover wouldn’t suffice— we needed to take it to the next level. We heard through the grapevine that famed manga artist, director, and writer Takashi Okazaki (Afro Samurai, Batman Ninja) was a huge…

The unanimous American League MVP and our unanimous choice for the MLB The Show 22 is Shohei Ohtani. Coming off a season for the record books, Ohtani hit 46 home runs, netted 100 RBIs, stole 23 bases while having a 9-2 record on the mound with a 3.18 ERA and 156 strikeouts. It is truly an honour to have him as the MLB The Show 22 cover athlete! For the second year in a row, MLB The Show is expanding…

It’s been interesting to hear the discussions about how the Activision purchase will help out Microsoft and Xbox. It’s almost been more interesting to think about how it’ll impact on Sony. Yes, this means more games for Game Pass. It means a higher incentive to buy into the Xbox ecosystem – even if that means just buying their games on PC. All those are obvious. But all of that is something of a given. It’s why Microsoft spent nearly $70b…

I for one am COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS till I get my sweaty palms on this one. Bows and Spears! Check. Robot Dinosaurs? Check! Carrie Ann Moss? Check!   The next chapter of Aloy’s story begins on February 18, and she’ll face a storm of new threats: a world-ending blight, Regalla and her rebels, Sylens and his machinations… plus many new dangers that have yet to be revealed. But as she ventures into the frontier of the Forbidden West, Aloy…

“Won’t someone think of Sony?!” That has been the theme of seemingly endless articles released since the announcement that Microsoft is buying Activision.  It can only be that because, let’s face it, with even a second’s thought, this deal is not unfair or illegal. I’m talking from a corporate perspective, of course. And yet armchair lawyers across the world are calling for the deal to be stopped on the basis of, basically, hurt feelings. Anti-trust is not going to look…

Shadow Man Remastered brings back a cult classic – successfully reviving a game that fans have been demanding gets new life for years. I hope they’re happy with what they wished for. In some preliminary research for this game, I took a quick look at some of the original reviews, and was blown away by what I saw. I remember the case, of course. It looked cool and edgy, not unlike the Blade film I’d been too young to watch.…

Shadow Man is back, and with him the age old question of how to beat the game’s true boss: any ledge from which you have to jump backwards. I’m kidding of course. But it is something you eventually have to do, and it’s something that’s not especially well explained. And yes, if you go searching, it won’t take long to find people who complained about this issue in the original release of this game. The good news is that it’s…
