Switch News

It’s a big week for gaming. The Switch 2 is out in just a couple of days, and then we have the Summer Games Fest and the Xbox conference at the weekend. And a Sony show is probably quite close behind. It’s going to be a month of announcements and reviews. As always, the rumour mill has been working overtime and we have a good idea of some of what we might see over the coming seven days. Naturally, take…

Unfortunately, I think the answer to this question is an emphatic “NO!” and that has nothing to do with personal preference. If I was handing out awards, baring some crazy surprises we don’t know about, I would be putting this experience right up there with the best of 2025, and for good reason. Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, while not perfect, is a phenomenal game that is going to rob me of over 100 hours of my…

Hello, my name is Dan. I’m addicted to Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time. How did things get this way? Let me tell you all about it. I have a group of friends that I play with a lot on Animal Crossing New Horizons. I’ve been playing with them since New Leaf. They are really great friends. And recently we were talking about the new Fantasy Life. Two of us were really excited for game. I didn’t think…

There’s a new pope kicking around, and while I’m sure his schedule is fairly busy I have a request: please bless the skippable cutscene. During his next visit to GamesReviews.com, I’m hoping he sees this and fully understands the absolute sincerity in which I ask this. The skippable cutscene is potentially one of the most beautiful inventions in the modern world. Firstly because it doesn’t require a subscription, but mostly just because of the pure convenience of it all. This…

How much is a game worth to you? I’m not talking a specific game. Not the wishlist, dream game that you’d trade your firstborn for. Just a game. $80? My guess is it isn’t even close. The average gamer isn’t spending anywhere near that much. Maybe a few times a generation or in support of a certain publisher. Perhaps you’ll splurge at Christmas or when a console launches. But those are outliers. Factor in deals, bundles, deep discounts and what…

Just a few short weeks after we were all bouncing up and down about the Oblivion remaster, a new rumour has sprung up. Rockstar are working on bringing Grand Theft Auto 4 to PlayStation and Switch. That should tell you everything you need to know right there. Skipping Xbox (and PC for now) implies that this is just a straight port, bringing the fourth numbered entry in the legendary franchise to audiences who currently can’t access it. The game is…

Last time, I talked about how I’ve been struggling with my enjoyment of gaming lately. I’ve mostly been playing cozy simulation games. That said, I did start playing Final Fantasy 6 Pixel Remaster recently and I’ve been enjoying that. Let’s talk about my history with Final Fantasy 6 and why this game is yet another cozy game for me. I wasn’t an rpg fan during the SNES days. I was a teen then and I liked beat ’em ups like…

Nintendo Switch 2 will be out soon. And then it won’t be too much longer before the PS6 pops up and Xbox Series is on its way out the door. Lately, I’ve felt that I’m at a crossroads. I’m unsure about where gaming will take me next. So today I’ll talk about what I’m thinking. Will I still be gamer in the future? The Nintendo Switch 2 is coming out in June and…I can’t get it. I can’t afford the…

OK, it’s yet another Nintendo Switch 2 article from me, and yet again we are probably going to walk down the “is this all too expensive” conversation. We are one month away from the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, and while I do feel that the costing conversation has died down a bit, it’s likely to rear its ugly head again at some point in the next 30 days. But how popular will the Nintendo Switch 2 be? If…
