Helldivers 2 Delisted in a Bunch of Countries

If you’ve been following Helldivers 2 at all, then you’re probably already aware of the ongoing controversy surrounding the PSN linking requirement. I’m mostly tired of it myself, so I’m not really here to recap all of it. Rather, I just want to comment on this latest story and see what your thoughts on all…

Mechs Dropped “Early” for Helldivers 2

Late on Sunday, Helldivers 2 players got a big surprise with the sudden addition of mechs into the game. Now mechs were apparently announced a long time ago, so their existence isn’t the surprise. Rather it’s theirs and other vehicle’s sudden surfacing that is. How it’s come about is not yet clear at the time…

Looking Longingly at PC Gaming

There was a time when I thought consoles were (and would always be) the best way to play. They were so much easier and faster than PCs and I’ve always much preferred a gamepad to keyboard controls. Of course, the years have seen most, if not all, the advantages of console gaming slowly get whittled…

Stellar Blade is Getting Three Graphics Modes

The Ehs and Ohs from PlayStation’s Summer Games Showcase

Last week, Sony offered up an online showcase of what it had in store for players in the coming months. We’re three years into the PlayStation 5’s lifecycle, though it seems that Sony isn’t giving up on the previous generation or its VR headset any time soon.

So Sony is Bringing Back the Wii U Now?

There were quite a few announcements at the recent PlayStation Summer Games Showcase. Some were awesome like the reveal of Dragon’s Dogma II, and some, like the announcement of Phantom Blade 0 were just kind of there. Then there’s Sony’s “Project Q,” which just seems baffling. At first glance, it looks like Sony’s answer to…

The Street Fighter 6 Demo was More Enjoyable than Expected

Honestly, I didn’t think I’d play the Street Fighter 6 demo. For my household, this game is an automatic buy, so I figured that I’d just play when we got it. But, upon hitting a lull over the weekend, and feeling that itch for a little something different from all the turn-based mania of Persona…

PS Plus Extra May Get Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

One of the areas where Sony’s new subscription service completely fails to measure up to Game Pass is in major first-party exclusives. For years now, Microsoft has been offering access to their biggest, most exciting titles Day One through their service, and that’s absolutely a major draw to the service. While Sony is offering many…

God of War is Good Enough to Make Me Forget About Dragon Age

Believe me when I say that I take my playthroughs of BioWare game very seriously. This means that once I get it in my head to replay any of either the Mass Effect or Dragon Age games in succession, nothing – and I mean nothing – gets in my way. Once I start a replay,…
