If there was any company that could do a Super Smash Bros clone, it would be Warner Brothers. They have the variety and the history to pull it off. So the oddly named Multiversus should be a Space Jam-style slam dunk right? Like all free-to-play games, it’s not an easy question to answer. The game could be the best thing ever and if the monetization is wrong, then you’ll walk away from the experience feeling bitter. Unfortunately here, there are…

Read MoreThe Last of Us Part 1 Remake to bring a bunch of Gameplay and Visual Enhancements
One of my favorite games of all time is getting the “remake” treatment. The Last of Us had a profound impact on me as a gamer as well as being a father, it was the first game to actually make me shed a tear for what I was experiencing and for that I will never forget it, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. With that being said, we are eagerly awaiting the next gen treatment…
Read MoreLast of Us Part I Conversation Isn’t Good Enough
This week has offered a unique opportunity: to get ahead of the marketing and see behind the curtain. A video of The Last of Us Part I leaked to negative reaction, meaning a likely hurried official blog post reveal was published early morning UK time to claw back the narrative. Except it didn’t. The negativity around it just being another remaster with prettier graphics and a couple of extra game modes wasn’t refuted. But the language was flowerier and the…

Read MoreOverwatch 2 – First Impressions
It’s easy to write up my first impressions of Overwatch 2. They’re pretty much exactly the same as my last impressions of Overwatch 1. I know that’s not the most original take on the internet, but unfortunately it is an inescapable one. I loaded up the game, picked a couple of familiar characters, played for a little bit and it could’ve been an update for the old game. And don’t get me wrong: it would’ve been a hell of an…

Read MoreRed Dead Redemption 2 Fans Have Been Let Down
Red Dead Redemption 2 was a modern day classic. It is one of the best games of the last generation, and one of the best selling too. It sold more than twice the copies of God of War. So why the hell has its post-game support been so lousy? The final nail in the coffin came this week when Rockstar revealed it has pulled devs from Red Dead Online to work on Grand Theft Auto 6. There will be no…

Read MoreWill Overwatch 2 Bring In The eSports Crowd?
There’s been a lot of talk lately about Overwatch 2, and the value that it actually brings to the franchise. When you’ve been waiting years for a sequel, finding out it isn’t adding that much content is a little disappointing. There have also been questions about its new structure. Can 5v5 work as well as 6v6? Does losing a tank make that big a difference? It has been a mixed response. It’s a few months until release though, and general…
