“Unprecedented” is a really good word to describe the current console generation.

Star Wars: Outlaws on Switch 2’s Reception Kinda Bugs Me
Another day, another overly expensive port of a decidedly not new game. It’s business as usual for Nintendo’s new console for sure, but this time the game is Star Wars: Outlaws, a release that panned by a great many for being decidedly lackluster at best and utterly broken at worst just a few months ago….
Hollow Knight: Silksong is Real!
It’s been a long time since I’ve talked about this game, and I was actually starting to think that I might never talk about it again. The wait for Hollow Knight: Silksong has been a long one, with release dates coming and going and only the briefest updates going out evvery couple of years.

Ubisoft CEO Blames Organized Criticism For Poor Game Reception

As the Halo series has gone on, its image has only gotten worse. Yet, it seems that sales for each game haven’t exactly slowed down. According to one Chris Haluke, former Lead Designer at 343 Industries, both Halo 4 and Halo 5 managed to hit 10 million units sold over their lifetimes. While perhaps not…
Arkane Studios Founder Slams GamePass After Microsoft’s Massive Cuts
One of my takes that’s absolutely aged like milk over the past couple of years was that GamePass was a good thing. More and more often I keep coming back to that position and wondering why I ever held it. Not only has it been doing to gaming what Netflix and the like have done…
Monster Hunter Wilds Title Update 2 is Live
After years of success and a pretty good launch on console, one would think that a title update for Monster Hunter Wilds would be fairly inconsequential. Yet, due to ongoing issues with the PC version of the game, any updates from here forward are going to be crucial. Read on to find out what the…
