The undisputed king of console FPS franchises, Call of Duty stands alone when it comes to online PvP shooters. While other series such as Destiny and Halo have had their moments in the arena of multiplayer FPS titans, none of them hold a candle to the success and longevity of CoD. While the series has sometimes strayed from its roots and gotten carried away (Advanced Warfare, anyone?), it inevitably self-corrects to the core gameplay that millions of us have come to know and love.

Call me an idiot, but Outer Worlds was really a game that came out of nowhere for me. How I missed it, all the pre-launch hype, all those amazing trailers…I’ll never know. But when I finally powered up Outer Worlds about a week ago, I was blown away but what I was delivered. It’s part Fallout and part Mass Effect, and it’s all gold, well almost.

Star Fox has gotten a few installments. Nothing like the Mario franchise. Not even like the Metroid franchise. Its gotten more games than Earthbound anyway (what game hasn’t). But in my opinion, there has only been one great Star Fox game and thats the first game. Now its available on Nintendo Switch. Does this game still hold up? The first Star Fox game is the best Star Fox game. Yes, Star Fox 64 was pretty good. Star Fox 2, which…

Released earlier this week, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is the latest in Tom Clancy’s open-world shooter franchise. Following in the footsteps of Wildlands while promising an entirely remastered combat system and a range of new features, Breakpoint was one of the most exciting announcements at this year’s E3. With many recent games suffering from being over-hyped and then failing to deliver upon release, the question at the back of many minds remained: how will Breakpoint measure up to the revolutionary expectations that have been built for it? Let’s find out!

Daemon X Machina, the mech-shooter developed by MARVELOUS!, is set to release on Nintendo Switch this Friday, September 13th. Daemon X Machina puts you in the driver’s seat of the awesome battle-mechs called ‘Arsenals’ – which, if we’re being honest, look like something straight out of the Gundam universe – and pits you against the overwhelming number of AI controlled tanks and other vehicles that you must prevent from taking over the world. While not the most original storyline, any robot fighting game is worth taking a closer look it. Let’s dive right in!

Officially releasing next Tuesday, Gears 5 is the latest installment in the Gears of War franchise and the second title to be released since Microsoft acquired the rights to the franchise from Epic Games in 2014. With Gears of War 4 receiving mixed reviews, fans of the franchise (myself included) were holding their collective breath, if not their high hopes, to see what time of experience we could expect out of Gears 5. Let me tell you that I couldn’t have seen it coming in a million years.
