Doug’s Best of 2015
2015 was a tremendous year in video games. Unfortunately, it was also one of the years that I played the least number of games in recent memory. For that reason, I’m unable to name a game of the year as I’m still enjoying completing games like Fallout 4 and Metal Gear Solid V: Phantom Pain…

It’s a game that defies expectations and really ups the ante in terms of ambition with its extremely and painstakingly detailed rendering of realistic armor, locations and the simulation…
Watch Dogs 2 Review: A hack above
Watch Dogs 2 is a game that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Unlike its 2014 predecessor set in Chicago, San Francisco’s turn at being the stage of open world hacking shenanigans is anything but a silly romp, and it’s great for that. Thankfully, there’s more to this game than simply being in on the whole…
