Hi-Fi Rush Was a Nice Surprise

It’s not often that a game gets released on the same day it’s announced, and such games actually being good is even more rare.

New ‘Lords of the Fallen’ is Both a Sequel AND a Reboot

When CI Games and HexWorks announced Lords of the Fallen back in August, one could be forgiven for being a little confused. See the previous game in that series was also called “Lords of the Fallen.” So, the assumption from most of us was that this new game was supposed to be something of a…

Stop Telling Me What To Do!

There’s a certain pet peeve I have when it comes to games, one that has been coming up more and more as the years go on: over-tutorializing. I don’t know what exactly developers think of us, but they must not think very much considering their absolute refusal to just let us play their games. The…

Hat’s Most Anticipated Games for 2023

Another year has come and gone, and once again we got to enjoy a lot of great games. Still, the releases never stop coming, and there are always plenty of cool and interesting titles to look forward to this year! I’m mostly sticking to major releases on this list, but I’m thinking there are a…

Fans Are Working to Translate Sakura Wars 2

Fans of the Sakura Wars series might finally have the chance to play 1998’s Sakura Wars 2: Thou Shalt Not Die in English at long last. This would be due to a new fan translation project that’s about to get under way. No estimate on time yet of course, but it looks like the team…
