Godfall - Review In Progress

Godfall hits both PC and PS5 this week, and Mitch has been keeping his eye on the action RPG ever since it was debuted about a year ago. But how does the looter RPG stack up thus far? Here are his initial thoughts on Godfall.


MMO Reroll: Blade & Soul

In this edition of MMO Reroll, Mitch takes a look at Blade & Soul and how it feels playing the MMO for the first time in 2020.


MMO Halloween Roundup 2020

When it comes to in-game season events, there's no doubt in my mind that MMOs leave the rest of the gaming world wishing they had more treats to offer. With less than a week to go until Halloween, MMOs from A to Z - well, W at least - have hung their spooky decorations, pulled out all of their tricks, and readied bags full of treats for their players. We even hunted down a few of the Not So MMO games that may be of interest to you. Even though I haven't played in a couple of years, DDO's The Nig

Join Mitch as he searches through the MMO discard pile in an attempt to rediscover the communities that he walked away from the first time around. This time, it's Final Fantasy XIV!

Crypto Space Commander Preview

Crypto Space Commander, or CSC, recently gave us the opportunity to check out their space-based MMO all about the blockchain. Mitch dives into what the game has to offer in this preview.


Gears 5 Review: Testosterone Not Included

When I, and probably everyone else, think of Gears of War, the first thing that comes to mind is just how badass Marcus Fenix is. The dude was a wrecking ball throughout the original trilogy. Even though another man bearing the Fenix name is the main protagonist in Gears of War 4, Marcus still finds a way to steal the show. Now, with Gears 4 under their belt, developer The Coalition was ready to mix things up a bit with Gears 5.

Borderlands 3 Review: A Lootin’ Shootin’ Good Time

Borderlands 3 is a grand finale to a trilogy that started ten years ago. The core gameplay improvements in Borderlands 3 completely outshine the few blemishes that need to be ironed out, and any fan of the looter shooter genre should give it a try.


Borderlands 3 Review In Progress

With 20 hours played in Borderlands 3 I am enjoying my trip back to the Borderlands universe. All of the gameplay I loved seven years ago is there, but some technical issues have made for a bumpy start.


World of Warships: Hands On With Submarines

Players got their first taste of submarine warfare in World of Warships with last year’s special Halloween event, and now Wargaming has announced that submarines will be coming as the fifth playable ship class to the game. The submarines ability to submerge and resurface in unexpected places to unleash a sneak attack behind enemy lines adds a new dimension to the flat earth gameplay we have all been accustomed to. Destroyers will also be getting some new mechanics of their own to counter this new threat.


World of Warships: Legends Developer Interview

Over the years, Wargaming.net has brought tanks, planes, and warship battles to PC with great success. They followed those successes with a World of Tanks: Mercenaries launch on console and both World of Tanks and World of Warships on mobile devices.


Hexgears Venture Low Profile Mechanical Keyboard Review

Just shy of a year ago, Hexgears made a splash in the wireless keyboard market with their Kickstarter campaign for the X-1 keyboard. They are back again this year with another crowdfunding project. The team at Hexgears did something more companies need to do: they took the feedback the community provided for their initial offering and applied it to a new design, the Venture Wireless Keyboard. Were the changes made enough to warrant a new Kickstarter campaign? Let's explore that question in our Hexgears Venture review.

Mordhau Review - More Than A Flesh Wound

In the week since release Triternion had to deal with several hiccups, a few speed bumps, and even a brick wall or two. What does that mean for people interested in picking up a copy of Mordhau? We explore that question in our Mordhau review.


Not So MMO: LifeAfter Review

Chinese developer/publisher NetEase is no stranger to the mobile arena. While we wait to see how Diablo Immortal turns out, they recently released LifeAfter, an MMORPG with survival elements in the West. While many titles re-released to new markets struggle with translation, NetEase did a stand-up job with the English translation. Did the gameplay survive the trip from the East as well, or is this just another "cash grab?" We explore that question in our LifeAfter review.
