Microsoft and 343 Industries have announced Halo Warzone, a new multiplayer mode that encompasses big team battle with AI  teammates and opponents. We saw Hunters, players flying in with Pelicans. The new game mode is playable at E3. Halo 5 is Microsoft's flagship series and after the mixed reception that…

Bethesda have finally publicly shown their upcoming continuation of the Doom franchise at their 2015 media briefing. The title was previously shown behind closed doors at an event earlier this year. The new DOOM is built on the IDtech 6 engine. The game features a double jump, mantling of objects,…

Disclaimer: Episodic games are a weird one to review; with a new episode comes a new review but it’s still the same game as before; it’d be like reviewing the campaign to Gears of War in five instalments and talking about how the shooting feels in each one. Consequently, there…

Episode two of DONTNOD Entertainment’s Life is Strange is here. Can they continue their systematic trampling of everyone else in the genre, or was Episode One a fluke? Out of Time starts with Max waking up, but rather jarringly it puts you in control, by which I mean it makes…

You’ve got to feel bad for game developers who come up with a great concept for a game, only to have a similar looking, but much more high profile game launch just before they do. Show any Xbox gamer the trailer to Aaru’s Awakening and they will likely respond with…

E3 is fast approaching and it's going to be a key year for Microsoft and their Xbox One. Here is the list of things we think they need to do to make up some much needed ground of the competition come June. Blow us away with exclusives Microsoft are losing…

Han Solo is about to return to our screens this December, so allow me to steal on of his most famous lines to describe Tower of Guns; she might not look like much kid, but she’s got it where it counts. Tower of Guns is a rogue-like retro first-person shooter,…

Microsoft and 343 Industries are starting up the Halo 5: Guardians hype train in advance of E3 this year, with not one but two live-action trailers for their upcoming exclusive shooter. The first trailer is shown from the perspective of Spartan Locke, a new character to the Halo universe first…

On the back of last year’s E3 critics couldn’t stop talking about Evolve, which managed to scoop the lion’s share of awards from critics at the show. I myself previewed Evolve back in February 2014 and was convinced it was the second coming of Christ. So as you can imagine,…

Have you ever wanted to know what it’d be like to be in prison? Well look no further than The Escapists, the perfect prison life simulator. Here you can experience the routine, the tedium, the boredom and the misery that is prison life. The Escapists is Team 17’s first foray…

DONTNOD Entertainment are a studio that took a shot and fell short, like so many before them when their last game, Remember Me, was met with middling reviews and spartan sales. Rumours were abound that DONTNOD had gone the way of the Dodo, but thankfully they are alive and kicking,…

DONTNOD Entertainment have released the launch trailer for their upcoming episodic game, Life is Strange. Life is Strange follows the story of Maxine Caulfield as she comes to terms with her new found ability to reverse time. It looks like Telltale finally have some competition in the episodic, choice-driven adventure…

Funk of Titans is, on paper, one of the stupidest ideas every conceived by mankind. God I love stupid ideas. Based loosely on Greek mythology, and I say loosely based on like the movie Noah was loosely based on the story from the Bible, Funk of Titans sees you step…

Before release, The Crew was championed as a persistent, open world that spans key regions of the United States and turns it into a race track – but has it been successful? You are launched into a massive world that is mainly story driven. Aside from the story there are…

If it wasn’t for Child of Light, I’d be utterly convinced that Ubisoft can no longer make a good game after this past year. Watch_Dogs was disappointing, Assassin’s Creed Unity clearly wasn’t ready for launch and The Crew looks about as interesting as porridge. But Far Cry 3 and it’s…

Another great day to be a gamer…unless you bought an Xbox One. Sony and Capcom revealed that Street Fighter V will be exclusive to PS4 and PC at the PlayStation Experience event held this past Friday. First off, this is a great move from Sony’s perspective. They don’t have their…

Probably the best game based around the Iñupiat people of Alaska that you’ll play this year…probably. Never Alone is an important and encouraging sign for video gaming as an art-form. Developed in collaboration with the Iñupiat, an Alaska Native people, Never Alone retells and reimagines several Iñupiat stories. Told through…

  Let’s start with the important part, the sound quality. In the words of Ace Ventura, it’s good. There are certainly better headsets out there for the audiophiles amongst you, but you’ll struggle to find anything that puts the Kave to shame within its price range. The sound isolation is…

That's right fellow shooter fans, the wait is finally over. Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is here...if you pre-ordered and got the Day Zero Edition. If not then you'll have to wait for the actual release date tomorrow, like the peasant that you are. But what did those pesky Day Zero…

Do you look for videos to entertain yourself in between matches of Call of Duty, but find they are always too long? Well you're in luck, person with strangely specific and insignificant problems because the Xbox One now has a Vine App. You can make use of the Kinect's voice…

I’m sure by now you’ve seen the plethora of less than stellar reviews that Destiny has received. Considering the amount of money thrown behind the project by Activision and Bungie’s track record with Halo, it’s surprising to see such low scores. So does Destiny deserve the hate? Kind of. Right…
