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…

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…

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…

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. At first glance, it looks a little like Paper Mario but the backgrounds are much more realistic than Paper Mario. The characters a very cartoonish and flat looking though.…

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…

A new LEGO game has been revealed! LEGO 2K Drive is coming out this year. Check out the reveal trailer and our thoughts on the below. LEGO 2K Drive will be coming May 19th for the Xbox Series, Xbox One, PS4/PS5, Nintendo Switch, and PC. This new LEGO game is an open world driving game. It looks really wild too! All kinds of vehicles and environments. You can go anywhere, build a car and race against everyone: including other players!…

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…

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…

There was a time when Suicide Squad and in particular Harley Quinn were huge. And that coincided with a time when superhero GAAS titles were soaked in potential. That time is decidedly not now. I don’t have strong opinions on the showing of Rocksteady’s new Suicide Squad. It debuted to mixed reaction at this week’s PlayStation State of Play, and while I won’t be rushing out to buy it, decent reviews make it a must-play at some point. These are…

Playstation will air a new State of Play this Thursday, February 23, 2023. We have all the details below. A new State of Play will air this Thursday at 3pm central. It will feature Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, Five new PSVR2 games, and some third party and indie reveals. Its unknown what third party and indie games will show up. Its supposed to be ‘reveals’ so it should be new titles that we don’t know about. Hopefully we’ll…
