Shooter

While most of us can agree that no game has achieved perfection (that is, if we don’t let our nostalgia bias our opinions), luckily for us, developers have not stopped trying to reach it. One such developer is the Russian-based indie, Battlestate Games. This team has undertaken one of the most ambitious projects I have ever seen with their tactical FPS, Escape From Tarkov.

The co-host of the recent Switch Indie Showcase, Katie Casper, recently talked to the developers of some of those upcoming games. Check out the video below to see what happened! Some of these indie games look really! I’m especially interested in Cuphead and possibly Creature in the Well. Which of these indie games are you interested in?…

Do you remember Shadow of the Colossus? Its the game where you have to climb giants and defeat them! What if you took that idea and turned it into a 2D action shooter? You might have Mechstermination Force for the Nintendo Switch! But would you have a good game? Mechstermination Force is an 2D action shooter that has you facing off against giant robots/creatures. Each “level” is a giant boss fight and thats it. This boss fights are beyond epic…

I like Mega Man but I’m not a die hard fan of the franchise. If there wasn’t another Mega Man game made tomorrow, I’d be ok. I thought it was cool that Capcom did another Mega Man game, though I felt no need to rush out and buy it. So when Metagal, an obvious Mega Man clone, was offered to me as a review game, I was interested but not too excited. And now that I’ve played the game, what…

For a game that received so much hype upon its release, with a large number of big-name streamers playing it, we have heard very little about World War 3 in the months following. I decided to take a follow-up look at the game to see the state of play in 2019. Can it shake the pre-launch hype curse, or will it be just another victim of over-excitement and under-performance? Let’s take a look!

Media Molecule’s Dreams will be coming to the PlayStation 4 via Dreams Early Access in April! When in April is it coming? How much will it cost? What will be in the Early access? We have the details! Dreams, Media Molecule’s creation video game, will be coming to the Playstation 4 on April 16th. The game will be in Early Access and cost $29.99. According to the developers, Dreams Early Access “won’t feature everything that the full release will have…

What is going on with Microsoft and Nintendo? First, we got Minecraft, then we crossplay with Xbox One, and now Cuphead is coming to the Nintendo Switch! Microsoft and Nintendo have a really unique relationship right now and one of things that is rumored for a future addition to that relationship is Xbox Game Pass on the Switch. Could such a thing happen?! I don’t know. I usually don’t even comment on rumors but I really want this one to…

Playstation will their own “Direct”, State of Play, later today. The video will include announcements for the PS4 and PSVR. What do you hope Sony announces? State of Play will air at 4:00pm central/5:00pm Eastern. We do not know what Sony will announce, other than it will be PS4 and PSVR titles. Its possible we could see anything from dates for games we already know about (Dreams, Last of Us 2), new games, indies, and sales. What do you think…

I am a huge Castlevania fan. I love the NES ones, the SNES games, Symphony of the Night, and all the GBA and DS ones. And so when Konami announced last night that there would be an Anniversary Collection of Castlevania games released this year, well, I went nuts. There will also be an arcade collection and a Contra collection! Konami has announced that they will be releasing Arcade games, Castlevania, and Contra collections this year. They will be available…

Nintendo had an Indie (Nindie) showcase video today! You can check it out below and then please come back here for my thoughts on the showcase. I thought that the Nindies Showcase video was pretty good! Probably the best one in awhile (though its lack of Steamworld Quest was distrubing. Yes, I know it was in the last one but still). The showcase got off to a great start with the reveal that Cuphead is coming to the Nintendo Switch!…
