My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure Impressions
Outright Games might have cornered the market on video games for kids, and while I will always nitpick the length of these adventures, there is no denying that when they do create something out of an officially licensed product, it's generally something kids will enjoy. Despite the shortness, the adventures are almost always enjoyed by my kids, so would this one be different? Join me and the littles ones as we look at My Little Pony: A Maretime Adventure on Google Stadia!

Multiversus – Open Beta Reaction
If there was any company that could do a Super Smash Bros clone, it would be Warner Brothers. They have the variety and the history to pull it off. So the oddly named Multiversus should be a Space Jam-style slam dunk right? Like all free-to-play games, it’s not an easy question to answer. The game could be the best thing ever and if the monetization is wrong, then you’ll walk away from the experience feeling bitter. Unfortunately here, there are…

Sony Acquisitions Close as Activision Looms
Sony’s purchase of Bungie and Haven Studios is now complete, but a larger beast looms on the horizon. See the ripples in the water? The Microsoft/Activision merger could be finished within months. This is where we are now. One surprising purchase closes, another one rears its head. Bungie – the people who created Halo – are now owned by PlayStation. And although we don’t quite know how that relationship is going to look, we know that Bungie is retaining a…
Overwatch 2 – First Impressions
It’s easy to write up my first impressions of Overwatch 2. They’re pretty much exactly the same as my last impressions of Overwatch 1. I know that’s not the most original take on the internet, but unfortunately it is an inescapable one. I loaded up the game, picked a couple of familiar characters, played for a little bit and it could’ve been an update for the old game. And don’t get me wrong: it would’ve been a hell of an…
Red Dead Redemption 2 Fans Have Been Let Down
Red Dead Redemption 2 was a modern day classic. It is one of the best games of the last generation, and one of the best selling too. It sold more than twice the copies of God of War. So why the hell has its post-game support been so lousy? The final nail in the coffin came this week when Rockstar revealed it has pulled devs from Red Dead Online to work on Grand Theft Auto 6. There will be no…
Nintendo’s PC Plans are a Slow Step Forward
Nintendo might be officially supporting Mario Kart on PC. It’s not the Mario Kart you want. Still, that’s progress for the only console manufacturer that doesn’t see the potential of PC. Don’t get me wrong. Official support for Mario Kart Tour on PC is more than I ever expected from Nintendo. But that will hopefully be the first step towards a bright new future. I mean, a glorified mobile release isn’t quite the equivalent of Sony eventually porting their games…
Will Overwatch 2 Bring In The eSports Crowd?
There’s been a lot of talk lately about Overwatch 2, and the value that it actually brings to the franchise. When you’ve been waiting years for a sequel, finding out it isn’t adding that much content is a little disappointing. There have also been questions about its new structure. Can 5v5 work as well as 6v6? Does losing a tank make that big a difference? It has been a mixed response. It’s a few months until release though, and general…
