Ken Follett’s Pillars of the Earth is a series of books that sit neatly in my ever growing pile of shame. Everyone has one for just about every medium these days, and I’m no different. Still, when an interpretation of a literary work ends up doing the source material justice, or even manages to surpass…
For as much as people might enjoy taking out tons and tons of Axis forces in a variety of gloriously insane and gory manners in Sniper Elite, it might come out as surprising to most that Rebellion been in game development for way longer than that particular franchise has been around. In fact, one of…
Moving away for now from Life is Strange (there’s going to be a prequel out before the eventual sequel, but that won’t be developed by them) DONTNOD is set to add their own flavor to the Mass Effect formula with Vampyr, an action-RPG set in early 20th century London, crippled by the Spanish Flu epidemic…
As is tradition now, Focus Home Interactive was one of the big appointments we had booked at E3. This year, the main theme seemed to be horror, as three of the titles that we saw were pretty invested on gloomy atmosphere and the macabre. Shifting away from the psychological horror of Call of Cthuthlu to…
The original Project CARS was a hugely ambitious game that took me quite a while to give a go because of how impenetrable it seemed at the outset. After my initial impressions of it at E3 2011, I didn’t feel like I would quite fit in with the style of game Slightly Mad Studios seemed…
It was a shocking revelation to hear that Assassin’s Creed Origins has been in the works for such a long time. For the last three years, various Ubisoft teams have been getting the game ready, and although many details about it had already been leaked over the past few months, there was still plenty of…

Priced at $15, ‘Rise of the Necromancer’ is set to bring one of Diablo 2’s fan favorite classes into the current game on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. It includes an assortment of bonuses like a new non-combat pet, more bank tabs for PC owners of…
E3 2017 proper started pretty darn well for me. Soon after the doors opened at the Los Angeles Convention Center and the crowd outside started to flood south hall, I touched down at Warner Bros’ booth to check out the sequel to one of my favorite releases of the past few years, Middle-Earth: Shadow of…
Honestly, I didn’t have any expectations when I took an appointment to see The Surge at E3 last year. Given that Deck 13’s last game, Lords of the Fallen, didn’t really sit well with me, there was little reason that yet another Souls-like game, this time set in a sci-fi world, would garner any attention….
Bokida’s vast, beautiful world is an absolute joy to explore.
