NHL 16 Cover Athlete Revealed and many more details announced
At the 2015 NHL Awards in Las Vegas last week we saw the announcement to have two NHL stars displayed on the latest NHL game coming out this September. With the dominance that the Chicago Blackhawks have had over the last six years it was only fitting to put their Captain Jonathan Toews and elite star Patrick Kane on the cover holding the Stanley Cup.
Batman Arkham Knight Early Impressions
The Batman games have evolved over time, and each has built on the last. In the final installment, Batman Arkham Knight, the developers over at Rocksteady Studios really brought their A game to this final installment, and it clicks on all levels.
Xbox Games with Gold Revealed for July
Great news has come our way as starting in July there will be two games offered on Xbox One instead of the standard one new game monthly.

New Xbox One Console Celebrates 10 Years of Forza Racing
It was only a matter of time before Xbox began unleashing specific bundles for its big 2015 releases, and it appears as if we've seen one of the first. Today, Microsoft announced the Xbox One Forza Motorsport 6 Limited Edition Console to celebrate not only the launch of the game, but also to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the franchise.
LEGO Jurassic World Early Impressions
LEGO games are generally always good, but unfortunetly, very few have been great. Jurassic World is good, but noticeably different from other LEGO titles. This is actually a really good thing, especially for people with limited time or parents with younger children.
Elder Scrolls Online Xbox One Early Impressions
I generally hate MMO's. Let me rephrase that: I loathe MMO's. I just never saw the fun in typing to chat, spending half my game play time swapping weapons and potions, or having to find a guild to truly enjoy the game. I want to play an MMO on my own time, which sometimes is only a few hours a week. Most MMO's don't give that kind of freedom. ESO definitely does.
We need to talk about Final Fantasy VII
So there it is. The news that many of us have been waiting for since 1997. 18 long years. Square Enix announced at E3 2015 that we are finally getting a Final Fantasy VII remake. A proper one. Not just updated graphics or shiny new cutscenes, but a full remake with new gameplay and, so we are told, new story elements to boot.
Bethesda at E3: what have we learnt?
Bethesda certainly didn’t disappoint in their first ever E3 press conference, making some huge crowd-pleasing announcements, some surprising, some more expected. But what do these announcements mean for Bethesda, and what do they mean for us?
Nintendo a bit lackluster at E3
Like last year, Nintendo opted to air a 45 minute digital event rather than hold a traditional press conference. To their credit, their use of Muppet-like dolls actually made me chuckle a little bit, and had my son rolling on the flour with laughter. It was a bit odd, but I guess it worked.
