Over the past half week or so, I’ve been taking a deep dive into Disney Speedstorm, the soon-to-be free-to-play Disney kart racing game from Gameloft. Right now, as an early access title, the only way to get into the experience is to purchase one of the three founders bundles. Gameloft hooked me up with a copy of the game last week, and after almost a dozen hours across 7 tracks, I think it’s fair to say we might have a…

Minecraft Legends Review (Second Opinion)
Minecraft Legends is an upcoming action strategy video game being developed by Mojang Studios and Blackbird Interactive, and published by Xbox Game Studios. It is officially slated to release on April 18, 2023. Now this isn’t the first spinoff from the ULTRA successful Minecraft series, you may remember Minecraft Dungeons from a few years ago, which I had a lot of fun with honestly. Can they do it again with Minecraft Legends? First off I highly encourage you to check…

Read MoreSea of Thieves Season 9 has Set Sail
Yesterday Rare announced that season nine of Sea of Thieves is available for free with Gamepass across Xbox Series consoles, Xbox One and Windows. It still surprises me the amount of love Rare has put into this game over the years. It’s never been one to resonate with me personally that much, but the fan base is there and they keep the content coming as well. Season 9 introduces Chests of Fortune, valuable chests that can only be found within…
Read MoreWho Remasters the Remasters?
In the last few weeks, we’ve seen a very quick raft of releases of old games for new consoles, and not a single one has released without some issue, big or small. Just think about that for a second. Goldeneye, Tales of Symphonia. Hell, even the Blade Runner release from last year is still being fixed (which is admirable, but plays into my point here). There is clearly a demand for old games. There are entire communities of retro fans…

Read MoreAge of Empires II Definitive Edition Quick Thoughts
I remember sinking in so much time into Age of Empires II back in the day, it had come pre-installed on a lot of computers I had owned and I had a lot of memories just wasting time with it. When they announced the Definitive edition back in 2019 I had hoped it would make it’s way to consoles, and now it has and if you have Gamepass, you can play it for free. The core gameplay elements are shared…
Read MoreGoldeneye 007 (Xbox) Review
Add this to the list of reviews I didn’t think I’d be writing in 2023. Goldeneye 007 was a killer app on the N64, and is legendary in the console FPS world. But how does the new remaster hold up? 007 played by Pierce Brosnan makes an unexpected (and difficult) return to our screens in the guise of a slightly improved emulation of the original game. That’s not to say that it isn’t improved. The control scheme makes it immensely…
Read MoreOddBallers Review
Ubisoft seems to be in the news a lot lately, from plunging stock values, delays of Skull and Bones again, and now the semi-flawed release of their newest title OddBallers. Now let me start all this off by saying Ubisoft is one of my absolutely favorite developer/publisher teams out there. I am a massive fan of Watchdogs, Far Cry, The Division, Etc etc. I think they get a lot of heat for putting out many good, not GREAT, games. Does…
