Dirt Rally Review

Authentic racing games with a tinge of arcadeness are definitely hard to find, but in reality, they are the most fun to play. Depending on how you set the difficulty, it is a game that can appeal to realistic racers and arcadey racers alike. While Dirt Rally tends to lean a bit more towards the authentic experience, it is still a fun game regardless of your skill level. Those unwilling to get in depth probably won’t find something they like…

King’s Quest Chapter 3: Once Upon a Climb Review

A return of King's Quest on modern consoles had me giddy since day one, and Chapter 1 of this series really got things started off on the right foot. While I enjoyed Chapter 2, the constant crisscrossing of the dungeon, coupled with the lack of direction and the trail-and-error approach to puzzles put a bit of a damper on my experience. Was Chapter 3: Once Upon A Climb going to mirror the great, nostalgic tone that made Chapter 1 so great, or was it going to continue the slog that was Chapter 2? Fortunately, it was actually neither. Chapter 3 of the latest ...

PDP Configuration App Coming to Xbox One

Performance Design Products makes a lot of great hardware for consoles and PC, and there really isn't any beating around the bush with them: we love there stuff. Sure, we haven't praised some items as much as others, but overall, they make an excellent product. One product that I use consistently with my Xbox One is my Prismatic Afterglow Wired Xbox One Controller. With the ability to map buttons the way you want, it's the perfect alternative to the very expensive Xbox One Elite controller that Xbox released last year.

Hitman: Episode 2

You if look back on our original Hitman Prologue and Episode 1 review, you will find a constant theme. This game has a huge wow factor that not many games pull off. Hitman, at least this time around - previous games in the franchise pale in comparison - has done a brilliant job of combining stealth, strategy, and assassination.

Gears of War 4 is Incredibly Expensive. Is it worth it?

The pricing numbers for Gears of War 4 were announced this week, and yike! It is going to be expensive. According to Microsoft of Canada, the price of the standard edition in Canada will be 79.99 with the ultimate edition - the standard edition plus the season pass - will sell for 129.99. As a standalone, the season pass will cost 69.99. Obviously, all of these figures are Canadian. While Gears of War 4 is likely to be a big hit on Xbox later this year - the beta went surprisingly well in my opinion - is the entire package going to be worth 129.99?! I'm ...

GTA V 50% Off Via Xbox Live Glitch?

Forum posters on RedFlagDeals - a Canadian deals website - are reporting that GTA V is 50% on Xbox One if you have purchased all the free DLC on Xbox 360.

Rocket League Hoops!

If you've played Rocket League you know how much fun, and how popular, it is. It's a really simple concept, but the execution is fantastic. Whether you are playing online, coop on the couch, or all alone, it is so easy to lose yourself in multiple matches. Psyonix is taking things a bit further later this month with the launch of a basektball version of Rocket League, and we cannot wait for it!

Reimagining versus HD Port: What Ratchet and Clank Does Right

Bringing back games from the past has become increasingly popular with all three big video game console companies, and who could really blame them. Throw on a few HD visuals, tweak a few things, and rerelease your title to consumers at nearly the same price as a new release. Don't get me wrong, I think most companies and developers put in a fair amount of work when creating these HD ports, but no one has done it better than Insomniac, and their latest reimagining, Ratchet and Clank.
