Tunic, an indie action/adventure game that takes a lot of inspiration from Zelda, is a very popular game. I know I expected a lot from it the first time I checked it out. I couldn’t get into it though. But now, I have a review copy of the game and tried it again. Did I like Tunic any better? Does it live up to the hype? Here is my review of Tunic for the Xbox Series S! Tunic has been…

Stadia is dead. Google will refund the cost of hardware, games and DLC, and by January 18th the service will be completely wound down. I know what you’re thinking: wasn’t it already closed down? And that is the tragedy of Stadia. Because it wasn’t a bad idea. Like OnLive wasn’t a bad idea, or PlayStation Now. But they held such a strange position in the industry that they would never be able to find success. Why play something via the…

For the fifth time in it’s development cycle, Skull and Bones has yet again been delayed by Ubisoft. The game is now posed to launch on March 9th, 2023 on Xbox Series, Playstation 5 and PC.

Do you like turn-based rpgs? What about indie turn-based indies like Cosmic Star Heroine? If you said yes, then we have another turn-based rpg for you to check out!

Aquadine is a beautiful visual novel where most of the story is pretty straightforward and players will have an immersive story experience when playing this game. I was given a chance to check out Aquadine from SoftColors, and I have to say it was really fun playing with it, I knew from the start I will enjoy a good story. My fellow writer Kevin Austin did a great review for the game from his perspective. In my review, we will…

The Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2 – Core in white and the Complete Component Pack are available today in select Xbox markets worldwide for $129.99 USD MSRP and $59.99 USD MSRP, respectively. The Core differs from the original Elite with a stripped-down version with a lower price tag but still delivers the quality build, battery life, and customization as the original just without the extra paddles, D-pads and thumb sticks. If you decided you do want to buy them…

I’ve never been into the Assassin’s Creed series. I tried. I thought I’d really love the Revolutionary War one and I didn’t. So I had no interest in playing any of the recent ones. But I have had extra time lately and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey was on gamepass. I liked Immortals Fenyx Rising which was also set in ancient Greece time. Maybe Odyssey would be cool? So I downloaded it from gamepass and..oh my god. This game is awesome! Assassin’s…

Nine months ago Microsoft announced it was purchasing Activision. Here we are, in September, and things seem hardly any closer. There’s plenty of drama, and not much else it seems. So just what’s happening with this acquisition, and are we any closer to understanding what it means? There’s no doubt about it that plenty of work will be going on behind the scenes, and we’re getting the occasional snippet of that work too. But now the acquisition has hit a…

It’s age-old, and muttered in concerned tones whenever the topic gets brought up: Xbox just doesn’t do well in Japan. This week, Microsoft proved that chestnut wrong. There was an inevitability about this topic, thanks partly to Sony’s massive success in the PS3 era and the Xbox One’s lack of success in the east last generation. Now that is changing. Thanks to hard work behind the scenes and the addition of the Series S, Xbox is on its way to…

So, Nintendo may have finally announced and given me a timeframe for Pikmin 4 after many, MANY long years. But in the meantime, something to help quench that thirst came along my way called Tinykin. Anyone who knows me, knows that I am a fan of the quirky games and some of my favorites of all time include Pikmin and Chibi-Robo (from the GameCube Era). Tinykin is heavily inspired by both of these games, and I couldn’t be happier with…
