The original Destroy All Humans came out in 2005, and became somewhat of a cult game for many players, myself included. The crazy sandbox that was created that allowed mass carnage, mayhem, and fun wasn’t common in games during that era. So when THQ purchased the rights to the IP a few years back, I genuinely got a little excited over the thought of Crypto making a return in an all new adventure. Hopefully taking advantage of all the modern…

After finally firing up Grounded on my Xbox One X via Xbox Game Pass, I quickly realized I had one major complaint - that the game didn't launch at 12:01 AM Eastern, instead launching at 1:00 PM Eastern. There are few games I ever pre-load onto my Xbox console, but Grounded was one of them. Since it was announced, I've been excited and hyped for the experience. The question is - did it live up to my wild expectations?

Videogames are often about defeating the big scary monster that’s tormenting the humans, but if you’ve ever wanted to flip the script and be that scary monster, Carrion is for you.  The folks over at Phobia Game Studio have put together a metroidvania style game that makes you feel powerful, clever, and has some of the most fluid movement of any game this year. Carrion puts you in the role of an unnamed monster that’s broken out of containment in…

Despite what haters might say, Microsoft delivered a robust and game heavy showcase last week that generally left gamers with an excitement for next generation in their mouths. Games, so many games, all coming to the Xbox Series X, some coming to Xbox One, and...wait...all going to be available on Game Pass on day one?!

We’ve seen 4k/60fps, we’ve seen raytraced lighting and ridiculously pretty textures – but if you believe the chatter on forums, we still haven’t seen next-gen. Why? Because armchair experts and fanboys would rather water down the medium with bitching than spend even a second getting excited. It’s happened all over again with the Xbox conference this week. The most rabid in our community have declared it ‘Not Next-Gen’ and so the question is: what even is next-gen? The answer will…

It's been a while since we got to jump into a brand new Halo experience, but we will be getting that opportunity soon when Halo Infinite launches. Two things struck me when watching the gameplay trailer. 1) This looks like more Halo; and 2) holy crap this looks fantastic.

Obsidian's next big gaming experience is hitting Xbox One on July 28th, and I personally cannot be more excited. With hundreds of hours played in similar games - Hello ARK Survival Evolved! - I cannot wait to dive into Grounded with friends.

Xbox Canada was at it again this week, sending us over a pair of custom Adidas shoes, in glorious green and branded with the Xbox logo, in celebration of this weeks Xbox Games Showcase. These shoes were sent to media around Canada, with the following card info included:

The same complaint that a lot of annual sports video game franchises receive is (mostly) true with NASCAR Heat 5. This year’s game feels basically like a roster and car paint update compared to previous versions. The driving model feels a lot better — my cars don’t just spin with the slightest contact, and I’m finding it easier to get involved in drafts and pushes. The game also just looks better, though that could be because I’m playing this year’s…
