Review: The Surge 2 (PC)
Better than the original in almost every way.
A weird thing happens when you have just a weekend to play a game and write a review for said game. I literally got my code Friday morning but could not begin until late Friday night. Sometimes that game ends up being longer than you anticipated. Sometimes that time that you could spend playing the game is spent instead with a weird thing called "life." And while "life" does have a tremendous framerate, it doesn't help... -

Ryu Hayabusa, Achilles, and Hades Announced for Warriors Orochi 4 Ultimate
What game wouldn't benefit from having a ninja and a Greek god?
That headline is indeed correct. Three additional heroes have been announced for Warriors Orochi 4 Ultimate. Koei Tecmo's own Ryu Hayabusa will be included as a playable character. He will be joined by the Greek god Hades and the famous Trojan War hero, Achilles. This is, by far, the oddest combined character reveal I have ever written about.
These three will join the cast of over 170 playable characters in... -
