New character and game announcements headline the news coming out of EVO 2017
EVO 2017 also proved to be full of surprises — some, not so much surprises, but confirmation of previously leaked announcements — in terms of news relating to fighting games. Most of these were delivered in between grand finals on Sunday. Here’s a rundown of all the news that came out of Las Vegas this weekend……
And that was EVO 2017!
It was terrific weekend for videogame fans for sure. The curtains have closed, and Evolution 2017 is finally over. For three packed days, competitors from all over the globe duked it out, with only a few making it out for the grand finals that not took place yesterday over at the Mandalay Bay Arena, but…
EVO, the biggest fighting game tournament in the world, begins today!
Saying that EVO is the world’s biggest fighting game tournament might be an understatement. What began as “Battle of the Bay” in Sunnyvale, CA in 1996 with a meager forty-person bracket for Street Fighter Alpha 2 and Street Fighter II Turbo eventually moved to much bigger venues in Las Vegas, Nevada, where it’s been held ever since,…
Batman: A Telltale Series Episode Five Review – Toe to toe
If there’s one thing that Telltale’s really good at it’s playing with our expectations. Their dealing of third-party franchises has seen mixed results over the years, and while they’ve been mostly positive, there’s no helping feeling a little uneasy seeing them step out of their comfort zone. That was the case when it was announced…
Eduardo’s Top Games of 2016
Many are considering 2016 to be one of the worst the world has ever seen. Games, however, have been pretty freaking great all year round, so at least they’ve helped keep people entertained while all sorts of chaos takes place in the real world. Here are a few of my personal standouts. Are some of…
Dex: Enhanced Edition Review – Knee deep in the past
In the current surge of nostalgia-filled games, it’s great when one of them so perfectly encapsulates the feel of 16-bit as well as Dex does. It feels especially like a Genesis/Mega Drive RPG platformer made in this day and age, from its graphics down to just how bogged down its pacing feels at times. Dex begins…
Severed Review – A cut above
Severed might just be the best implementation of cutting I’ve seen in a game so far. Then again, I have zero experience with this type of game in the mobile scene, but as it stands, Severed is impressive enough just for how far it takes the concept of slashing with its surprisingly deep gameplay, cooky visuals…
Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens Review – Not so far far away
Luke Skywalker’s gaze was noticeably drawn to the lightsaber that rested just a few inches away. He turned towards the window once more, trying to suppress the internal rage. Out the window, rebel ships shattered into pieces like glass or were scattered and useless against the Empire’s large Star Destroyers. Luke turned back towards his…
E3 2016: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Hands-on Impressions – Boundless
The new Legend of Zelda was little more than a teaser video at E3 2015. From there on up to this year’s show, little was talked about it outside of tentative release dates and whether or not it would be seeing it on whatever Nintendo’s console is going to end up being. It was worth…
