The final week of the Horizon Race Off dawns in Forza Horizon 5, yet as we prepare to bid farewell, there is a last hoorah in the shape of the Festival Playlist Weekly Challenges for Series 32 Spring.
You may not have heard of Loretta, but dismiss the psychological thriller at your peril. In Episode 197 of TheXboxHub Official Podcast you'll get to hear about the game - and why it is very nearly perfect.
Pull on your wooly pulleys as it is Winter in Mexico, and in the world of Forza Horizon 5 we all know what that means, right? Yep, more weekly Festival Playlist Weekly Challenge shenanigans to keep us entertained and racing hard through Series 32 Winter!
Storm Season is rolling into Forza Horizon 5, and with it dawns a whole new week’s worth of Festival Playlist Weekly Challenges in Series 32 Autumn, mainly focusing on the racing
At some point in time, everyone has wanted to be a pirate. It's a very attractive profession, is it not? What with all the fluffy open chested shirts, golden boxes of treasures, sailing the open seas and nicking stuff, it's a vocation that looks a lot of fun. Most recently in the gaming world, the pirate life has been a successful one, with Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag and Sea of Thieves providing a bit of an insight. Now though Atlas has come along and it too wants you to taste some rum, put a parrot on your shoulder and head out as captain of all you can see and plunder.
This generation of consoles has truly been amazing. But with so many great games coming out all the time, there'll inevitably be some that fall through the cracks. Luckily I'm here to remind you of some of these gems, so without further ado here are 5 under-appreciated games available on Xbox One.
The Razer Nari Ultimate isn't a new entry into the gaming headset market, with PC users having access to the brilliance of Razer for a while, but the Nari Ultimate for Xbox One IS a new addition to the Xbox scene. Want to take in a quick unboxing and first look at this utterly stunning headset?
Until the disappointing Halo 5: Guardians, I would have had Halo 2 down as the weakest of the lot. Now this is not to say that it's a bad game, not by any stretch of the imagination, however it just cannot escape the shadow cast by its brothers that came both before and after it.
If there's anything we learned over the years, it's that no game is complete without the word "definitive" in the title. And hence, continuing the tradition, Square Enix releases Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition.
These days, movie tie-ins are a rare breed. After years of becoming a stream of shovelware content, simply to cash in on a popular product, they’ve lost their place. It’s a shame as amongst the wreckage a few gems stood out from the rest. The Spongebob Squarepants Movie is one of those enjoyable treats. A fun, energising and varied platforming adventure that didn’t take itself too seriously.
Telltale Games has a strong history of taking inspiration from graphic novels, with perhaps the most famous being their The Walking Dead series. However, back in 2014, they looked at another writer’s work, a gentleman by the name of Bill Willingham and his Fables series, creating The Wolf Among Us in the process.
If you fancy some GTA nostalgia, and/or want to dive back into the GTA IV package in its entirety, I would say that if nothing else strikes your fancy, The Ballad of Gay Tony should.
Being described as an "action adventure hack and slash" game, with major themes of "sexiness" and "partial nudity" (those wacky Japanese, eh?), luckily Bayonetta played a whole lot better than the description made it sound.
It was back in August when we first heard of the surreal point and click adventure Edgar - Bokbok in Boulzac; the tale of a strange chicken-fuelled adventure that focuses its efforts on an eccentric outcast, Edgar, left us wanting more. Thankfully the team at La Poule Noire were more than happy to let us in on some extra juicy details.
There should never be a refusal to acknowledge free stuff, and with the Xbox Games With Gold scheme the free games and experiences have come in multiple forms over the years. But as the Xbox Game Pass slowly tightens its grip on the gaming world, the power and prestige of the Games With Gold scheme has diminished. Surely though with Star Wars and Sherlock Holmes games going free throughout November 2019, the draw and appeal should be huge again?
The good faith of wrestling fans is diminishing rapidly and five years after the mediocrity found in WWE 2K15, it doesn’t seem like 2K have learnt anything. The time for change is now.
It's that time of the year again - it's the All Hallows' Eve. It's time to carve pumpkin heads, jump-scare unsuspecting friends and decide which horror game to play during the adult hours. Some of us will return to the classics, like Resident Evil and Silent Hill; others might prefer something modern, like Dead Space or The Evil Within.
To assist your decision-making process, this list showcases 5 of the scariest monsters which, in one way or another, stalk the protagonist throughout the campaign. And to keep things more varied, I only considered one monster per franchise because otherwise, this list would consist solely of monsters from Silent Hill games.
