It's that time of the year once again; it's time to play some nerve-tingling horror games. Actually, it's always a good time to play horror games, but now there's a valid reason to scream off the top of your lungs, keep all of the lights in the house on, and check under the bed before sleep.

Allow me to begin by saying this - I’m in no way an enthusiast of digital media. I used to be the guy who passionately advocated the superiority of physical games while having Olivia Newton John’s hit song playing in the background. Like many, I grew up at a time when neatly boxed games with colorful artworks and thick manuals were the only option. Receiving a highly desired game for Christmas, unwrapping it and inhaling that factory-fresh smell, is probably something only a handful of people outside of the hobby would not find disturbing.
It comes as no surprise that this week's news was dominated by the highly anticipated Red Dead Redemption 2. Most of the news was great for the game and for its developer Rockstar, but some wasn't.
2018’s most talked about video game is Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption 2. Any studio that has its property anywhere near Red Dead’s October 26 release date should be wary. Not to mention the other massive franchises fighting for our dollars: Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, Battlefield V, Fallout 76, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. There’s nothing wrong with having a vested interest in those titles, but there may just a few more games worth your time. These ones perhaps…
Since the moment we first laid eyes on Godzilla, there has always been a fascination with larger than life monsters; those as tall as skyscrapers and capable of causing destruction on a massive scale. From Godzilla to King Kong and even the Transformers, the years since have seen the game and movie industries amorously pushing these gigantic creatures onto our screens at every opportunity. More often than not we’ve lapped it up.
Should you be old enough to have enjoyed the delights of games such as War of the Monsters though, then you’ll already know just how much fun it can be to jump into a game controlling something capable of wide-spread destruction, and it seems the guys over at The Balance Inc. share those thoughts too… at least if their latest game Override: Mech City Brawl is anything to go by.
This week, we discuss the rumour that Microsoft is about to acquire Obsidian Entertainment. Does this move fill major gaps in Xbox's portfolio? We discuss our favorite Obsidian games and what the developer could bring to the Xbox family. Also, Microsoft announced that the beta for Project xCloud will begin sometime in 2019. What should we expect from the streaming service? Will streaming be the direction video game consoles go in the future?
Celebrating the upcoming 10th anniversary of the franchise, this article will take a brief look at what exactly made the original Dead Space so great and where the series ultimately fell apart.
Am I jumping forward in time to visualise what kids will be doing whilst waiting to go bowling (that’ll probably be in VR too) or in the Detroit: Become Human style shopping centres?
This week, we start off by giving our early impressions on the newly released Forza Horizon 4 - does it live up to our hopes and expectations? We discuss what we've played so far, along with some of our favorite features in the game. In news, the author of The Witcher is demanding $16 million from CD Projekt Red. We talk about whether the studio should pay the author more than he originally received for the rights to the franchise.
Microsoft had another Inside Xbox this week, and the focus was on the upcoming Forza Horizon 4. How excited are we for the game? Did the Bond Car Pack or the Halo Showcase Event interest us at all? In addition, Phil Spencer stopped by on the broadcast to tell Major Nelson about mouse and keyboard support coming to the Xbox One, and we discuss the implications of that announcement too.
This week, we discuss the newly announced PlayStation Classic console - is it something we wanted? We discuss the games we know are on it, as well as the price point. Also, how much are they capitalizing off of Nintendo's success with classic consoles in both opportunity and name? In other news, Telltale announced a massive change in their business structure and strategy - we talk about what might have led to this as well as what kind of safety net should be in place for developers in the gaming industry.
That time of the year is here. The time where every gamer becomes spoilt for choice. There are a multitude of massive titles coming out, and you have no idea which ones to buy. Be it time or money, you might not be able to get them all (or maybe you can). Either way, here are five of the most exciting titles coming out between now and the end of 2018.
Hype. Hype is the secret behind every great marketing campaign, whether that is designed to promote the next Avengers film, this Spring's upcoming fashion line, or Rockstar’s long-awaited Red Dead Redemption II. There’s always something to be excited about within our age of consumer culture.
