    May 2022's Hottest Game Releases

    Though the bulk of the big video game releases in 2022 have already passed by, or will come to pass later this year, that doesn't mean there is a major shortage of games coming out during these "slow" months.

A lot of Konami's earliest releases were done through arcades, but once home gaming consoles started to arrive, they made the jump in force.

    Konami started out with a bang on systems such as the MSX, PC, NES, and more. They...

    Full Cross-Play Finally Coming to Borderlands 3

    Sony is finally allowing it to happen.

    Last year, Gearbox revealed that full cross-play functionality for Borderlands 3 was ready to go. However, the studio had to pull the feature from PlayStation consoles because Sony, at the time, was very much against cross-play with other platforms.
