Ori and the Blind Forest received a perfect 10/10 score form us at Games Reviews and for good reason. This is by far one of the best games I have ever played. Graphically it is superb, audibly outstanding, and it plays almost flawlessly. When it was announced that more content was being added to the game, and that there was a definitive edition, we realized we were getting a second chance to gush about this fabulous game.

Performance Design Products has recently launched their Energizer battery charging cradles for Xbox One and PS4. This is not to be confused with rapid charger that still has not received a release date. We reached out to PDP for more information on the charge cradles and they sent over a wealth of information.

The Spring Sale runs from now until March 28th and offers over 150 games at a reduced rate of up to 60% off. There were even some games with deals getting a greater percentage off. Xbox Live Gold subscribers can also get an additional 10% off on some titles.

A survey from Microsoft which popped up on Reddit today indicated that the video game and software company was toying with the idea of offering a trade-in for digital purchases. While the trade in amount would not be much – a mere 10% if the survey is to believed – it would be better than nothing if you truly don’t want to play the game anymore. On a 60.00 game, consumers would only be getting 6 dollars back. Ideally, the…

I've been toying with writing up articles on the best valued Video Games in specific categories. I think its worth discussing because as the price of games rises - at least here in Canada, where a new released comes in at 79.99 - 84.99 compared to 59.99 a few years ago - what we can afford as consumers drastically decreases. We go for value in our games. Value for an individual is often not a constant. For one person, an amazing story has lots of value, regardless of how long the game takes. For myself, I take everything into consideration, but my end desire ...

One of my early entries to this column said that every video game needed a story. Now I’m back to give you the opposite position: Video Games don’t need stories! Tetris, Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros, and many other games do not have stories. After my last article about video games needing stories, I had some people say, ” Ya, but this game doesn’t have one.” And its true. Not all video games need stories. In fact, I’ll just…

You have to think it was going to happen eventually, but in my opinion, I thought that this would have come as one of the two console giants began to struggle. However, I think Microsoft gets the extra boost of credit as it appears as if they are reaching out to Sony to make this happen. One of the first games to get this treatment: Rocket League.

We were told that Axiom Verge was unlikely to come to the Wii U. So today’s announcement that the game is coming to the Wii U was a huge surprise. Not only that, but the game is coming to the Xbox One too! Axiom Verge is a game I’m not too familiar with. All I really know about the game is that its Metroid-like and that a lot of people seem to like it. I’m a Wii U and 3DS…

I’ve been a fan of the Oddworld games since the first game on PS1. When it was announced that the new game, Oddworld N’Tasty, was coming to the Wii U I was really excited. As it turned out, New N’Tasty for Wii U was a great game! And now the developer, Oddworld Inhabitants, has announced a new game in the franchise. What’s this game called and what’s it about? Read on to find out!     Oddworld Inhabitants has announced…

I cannot say I have ever been a huge fan of the Hitman franchise; I was not a fan of previous installments of the series on console, and I absolutely despised the big screen approach. However, something intrigued me by this new Hitman title that has launched on PS4 and Xbox One. Whether it was the developers constantly reminding the public that this was a different type of Hitman game, or if it was the fact that the company was…
