Games to Look Forward to in 2023

I won't lie. I fully expected there to be far more news to post today (January 2, 2023) given that it's the start of the week and the holidays are "technically" over. What I failed to realize is that a ton of people are still off work due to the New Year falling on a Sunday. Thus, here I am opting to do a little write-up about what games I'm looking forward to in 2023 instead of sitting around doing nothing. Who knows, maybe you're looking forward to these games as well. If I missed some games ...
 

Total Gaming Network's 2022 Games of the Year

It is time once more to talk about the best games that have come out over the past year. As the case has been with previous years, this list of games only includes the titles that I have personally played to some degree. In addition, the games on this list are games that were released in 2022 unless otherwise stated for some specific reason. As I am the only one posting content on the site, this is as much a "Total Gaming Network Game of the Year" as it is my personal Game of the Year selection. ...
 

Review: High on Life

A fun little adventure that fuses crass humor with some DOOM-style combat.

High on Life opens strong and just gets better the further into the game you go. It was a game that I remember being on the fence about for the longest time. In fact, I did not even remember submitting for a review copy, but I apparently did! So, it was with a fair bit of hesitation that I accepted the code, downloaded the game, and started the journey. Any worry I might have had was quickly laid to rest within...
 

NewsBits - The Game Awards 2022 Edition

As far as awards shows go, this certainly was one of the awards show of all time.
It was a night like none other. A night that opened with Steam user Milf Hunter winning a free Steam Deck from Valve. It was a night with an acceptance speech that went on for over eight minutes while a haggard looking Al Pacino stood by. It was a night that included a weird joke about murder statistics. It was also a night that ended with someone with possible ties to right-wing media saying something on mi...
 

The Game Awards 2022: Every Winner

It was a night of winners and losers. After all, it was an awards show at the end of the day.

The annual showing of The Game Awards aired last night and it sure was something else. Sadly, this isn't the news post you were looking for if you wanted to get the details on new game reveals, Milf Hunter, and an InfoWars kid. No, this is a news post talking only about last night's big winners!

God of War: Ragnarök took home several wins last night, including winning for the...

    Dead Space Remake Can Run at 1440p at 60FPS on Consoles

    A Quality mode will run at 4K and 30FPS with ray tracing.

    The Dead Space Twitter shared the two different graphical modes that players on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S will get to choose from. Go for the eye candy and lower framerate, or go for slightly less eye candy at 60FPS. The choice is yours.

    The developers at Motive and EA laid bare what sort of graphical settings you will get to choose from. You can choose the Quality mode and run Dead Space at 30FPS but at...

    Goose Goose Duck Update Adds New Map, Roles, and More

    More than 800,000 people have played this Among Us clone.

    Across the weekend running from January 8th through the 9th, Steam broke all sorts of records. As we assumed prior, these user records hit by Steam were probably helped out quite a bit by the surge in popularity of a game called Goose Goose Duck. This is the Among Us clone originally released in October 2021 that rose in popularity over the past week after a K-pop star from the group BTS, Kim "V" Tae-hyung, played...

    The update also includes the usual performance improvements.

    A new system update for the PlayStation 5 started to roll out and with it came new support for the upcoming DualSense Edge controller. The DualSense Edge is a more premium controller for PlayStation 5 users that could be viewed as Sony's take on the Xbox Elite controllers.

    The DualSense Edge includes several additional features over the regular DualSense controller. These additions include the ability to easily...

    Tree Houses Coming to Green Hell

    You can soon build the tree house of your childhood dreams.

    An update slated for a January 23 release will introduce some new building options for Green Hell players. Of note in this self-described "Building Update" is the fact that you will be able to create some really cool tree houses.

    Not a fan of heights? No worries, because there will also be a new Floating Frame platform. This will allow you to build houses, up to three stories tall, on the water. Other...

    Ubisoft Delays Skull and Bones a Sixth Time, Cancels Three Other Games

    Ubisoft isn't doing so hot these days.

    On Wednesday, Ubisoft said that they are "facing major challenges as the industry continues to shift towards mega-brands and long-lasting titles that can reach players across the globe, across platforms, and business models." That is to say, some of Ubisoft's latest releases didn't perform all that well and the company isn't doing as well as they had expected.

    Ubisoft flatly says that their "recent launches have not...

    System Shock Remake Dated for March 2023

    A more narrow release window was just announced.

    Nightdive Studios revealed today that the highly anticipated System Shock remake will be released very soon. The game has been given a release window of March 2023.

    System Shock is a remake of the classic 1994 action-adventure game. It was initially released for MS-DOS and Mac OS in late 1994. A native Windows release didn't happen until 2015. As a remake, System Shock has been given a near complete overhaul with all-new...

    Simon Pegg is Your Headmaster in Hogwarts Legacy

    "DID YOU GET RED ON YOU?!" he asked calmly.

    Warner Bros. Games and Avalanche Software just revealed some of the more well-known talent that are lending their voices to Hogwarts Legacy. Among the names shared in today's press release is one that nearly made me to a legitimate spit take: Simon Pegg.

    Simon Pegg assumes the role of Phineas Nigellus Black, the Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Yes, Simon Pegg the actor, producer, and comedian....

    Those worried about The Last of Us HBO series turning out good can now breathe a sigh of relief. The critical consensus seems to be that not only is the show good, it's downright fantastic.

    While The Last of Us won't air to the public until Sunday, January 15, critics of the world were able to share their thoughts on the series. Though it seems that they were able to watch the entire first season (9...

    Want Final Fantasy 16? Just Buy a PlayStation 5

    Producer Naoki Yoshida seems to suggest a PC release isn't happening at all.

    When Square Enix first revealed Final Fantasy XVI it wasn't really clear if the game would be released later on PC. Most of us kind of assumed it would be since, you know, every other Final Fantasy has come to PC eventually. The initial trailer reveal, still up on YouTube courtesy of IGN, even says "also available on PC" in fine print at the bottom in the final seconds of the trailer.

In speaking with GamesIndustry.biz, five former Striking Distance Studios developers specifically say that they were omitted from the game's credits. They say that they know of several others who were also cut. Additional sources told GI.biz that about 20 people across several different departments were left out...

    Physical Game Sales Down to Just 10%

    Those in the UK vastly prefer digital to physical.

    According to a new report by the BBC, physical game sales seem to be on the verge of being completely wiped out. Last year, the digital entertainment and retail association (ERA) says that 89.5% of all games sold in the UK were digital purchases. That leaves the remaining 10.5% as physical disc-based sales. In addition, about 30% of all total sales were for mobile apps.

    The BBC continues on to say that the gaming industry...

    Meta Quest 1 Owners to Lose Social Features

    Meta outlines other changes coming to their forgotten about device.

    If you purchased the first release of the Meta Quest VR headset, you are probably already used to getting shafted on features and support. Ever since the Meta Quest 2 was released, parent company Meta has essentially abandoned releasing updates for the previous generation hardware.

    Today, that feeling that Quest 1 owners had got that much more concrete with an email sent out by Meta. In the email, Meta...

  • Poll: Which Horror Remake Are You Most Excited For in Early 2023?
    by Shawn Zipay
    There are at least three of them coming this year.

    It's near the start of the month. It's a new month, a new year, but probably the same you. 2023 will have a number of remakes and remasters released, same as the previous few years. While there are remakes and remasters of games such as Like a Dragon: Ishin and Risk of Rain Returns slated to be released in 2023, we're going to focus only on the horror remakes in the pipeline.

    That means, I'm asking just one simple question:...
    Dead Space (January 27)
    33.33%
    1
    Resident Evil 4 (March 24)
    66.67%
    2
    System Shock (March)
