Striving to dominate the MMO console-shooter world, EA's newest title, Anthem, has landed. Anthem puts you in the driver's seat of 'Iron Man' style mech suits that you fly around in to dispatch hordes of enemies. However, as tends to happen when a game receives an abundance of pre-release hype (did you too receive dozens of ads on Twitch and YouTube for this game? I sure did!), the community has quickly revolted on Anthem and its creators. This begs the question, does Anthem really deserve all the hate? Or the hype it garnered before that? Let's take a look!

As if there wasn't enough hype around the release of The Division 2 with its focus on replayability and endgame content and the Private Beta they offered for anyone who pre-ordered the game before Feb 7th, Ubisoft has now announced that anyone who puchases a standard edition of The Division 2 Pre-order digitally will receive another Ubisoft blockbuster, absolutely FREE. That's right, you heard me. No trade-in required, no special edition purchase needed.

After a weekend of rushing through the ruins of Washington, DC between overturned cars and concrete barriers, I have officially rediscovered my love for this franchise. The Division 2 Private Beta offered a wonderful taste of what can be expected from the full release coming mid-March. I had such a wonderfully fluid and dynamic experience, I hardly know where to begin!

Dreams is a Playstation 4 exclusive game that will let you create your own video game (and other stuff), share it, and play other people’s creations. If you played LittleBigPlanet, you’ll have an idea of what Dreams is but only know the half of it. The LittleBigPlanet series is great. I love it. Dreams is not out yet, but I can already tell you its bigger and better than LittleBigPlanet. How? I got to play the recent Dreams beta on…

With the upcoming release of The Division 2, many people are looking back and trying to remember what happened to its predecessor. Don’t we all remember having a ton of fun running around an open-world console shooter, grabbing loot and taking down bad guys? The concept was neat, the graphics and animations were smooth and sufficient for its time, and the actual feel of the game was great. So, what happened? End game happened. While The Division was certainly one…

Resident Evil 2 has a lot of content already, with four main stories and other modes to unlock. But what if we told you three more stories would be joining the game next month as DLC? And that the DLC would be included in a free update?! Well, its all true. Check out the details for The Ghost Survivors update below. Resident Evil 2 will receive a free update on February 15th. The update will be called The Ghost Survivors…

Nintendo of America announced today that Metroid Prime 4 has been delayed. Check out the video below for more details and after that, some thoughts from me about the delay. A Metroid Prime 4 delay is surprising but not shocking. We haven’t seen any footage of the game yet and Nintendo has been pretty silent on the game. I do like that Retro Studios, the developers of previous Metroid Prime games, is helping out with the development of the game…
