Amnesia: The Bunker Review (PC)
Frictional Games plays it safe. Perhaps a little too safe.
Frictional Games is known for crafting some of the most memorable horror game experiences over the past 15 years. They began with the Prenumbra series, a trio of titles that gave us our first taste of Frictional's penchant for blending survival horror with physics-based environmental puzzles. The studio then saw a spike in popularity with their next release, Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Amnesia: The Dark Descent expanded upon the...

After Us Review (PS5)
After Us offers a glimpse of our future and a warning of things to come.
A gaming experience where you engage in thoughtful introspection, wordless encounters, and some platforming across Earth's many diverse locations to undo the devastation caused by global warming sounds like an intriguing idea on paper. Its execution in After Us, however, leaves quite a bit to be desired. Some awkward platforming, poor combat, and performance woes will ultimately leave you feeling a little less...

Redfall is Arkane's Worst Game Ever
It's also the worst "AAA" developed title in recent memory.
It was a struggle to finish Redfall. It was an absolute struggle thanks to performance issues, technical deficiencies, crashes, broken A.I., and uninspired quest design. It was the antithesis of fun and I pushed myself to complete the game out of pure spite.
Prior to playing Redfall, I saw Arkane as a studio that could do no wrong when it comes to their output. Dark Messiah of Might and Magic in 2006...

UK Blocks Microsoft Activision Merger
The CMA claims the deal would harm cloud gaming.
Cloud gaming. Cloud gaming is the reason why the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) in the UK voted to block the $69 billion deal that would see Microsoft taking over Activision Blizzard.
The decision didn't come down to concerns over Call of Duty exclusivity or anything that would make some measure of sense. No, it came down to the CMA being concerned that the deal would "undermine new and innovative" competition...

First Details on WWE 2K18 MyCareer Mode
The first details on the MyCareer mode for WWE 2K18 were revealed today by 2K. This is, as you may have guessed, the mode that includes a variety of story narratives to experience.
In WWE 2K18, we wanted MyCAREER to focus on a strong story narrative. We felt the addition of backstage could afford us some cool new ways to experience a day in the life of a WWE Superstar. For us to accomplish this, we needed to develop unique and compelling storylines that are no longer shared from Universe... -

Bungie Issues Apology for Including Legendary Gauntlet with White Supremacist Logo in Destiny 2
Earlier today, Waypoint pointed out that a piece of Legendary gear in Destiny 2 bears a damn close resemblance to the "KEK" logo that has become a very popular symbol for white supremacist in the United States. Specifically, it's the "KEK" logo from the Kekistan flag. Yes, to most sane and rational people that probably sounds incredibly stupid, but it's actually a thing.
Without going into the long lineage of bullshit memes that are the signs and sigils of modern white supremacy's... -

New Evil Within 2 Gameplay Trailer is a Race Against Time
The October 13 release date for The Evil Within 2 is rapidly approaching, which means it's about time for a new dose of spooky media to share with you. This latest video is a gameplay focused one and it's all about a flat out race against time. It's probably just a coincidence that "Race Against Time" is also what the video is called.
Time is not on your side in The Evil Within 2. As Sebastian Castellanos, you will face unimaginable terrors as you fight to find your daughter within... -

Outcast: Second Contact - First Gameplay Video
Bigben and Appeal have released the first in what seems to be a series of gameplay videos for Outcast: Second Contact. Outcast: Second Contact is a remake of the 1999 game, Outcast, which is apparently the "first 3D open world" game to exist. I don't know enough to argue this remark, so I'll just have to take them on their word for now.
In Outcast: Second Contact, the action takes place on Adelpha, a vast open world to explore and the cradle of an ancient alien civilization, the Talans.... -

You will be able to watch on the Nintendo website or directly through Twitch. The event is on September 13 at 3PM (PT).... -

PewDiePie is Still a Racist - Casually Drops Racist Slur During Stream
In today's bit of totally shocking news, Felix "PewDiePie" Kjellberg yet again outed himself as being a racist. Say what? PewDiePie certainly doesn't have a history of uttering racist or anti-Semitic remarks in the public eye. And it's not like he's ever been penalized for paying people to say things on his behalf such as "Death to all Jews." Right? RIGHT?! In all seriousness though, PewDiePie said a racial slur during a recent stream. It was casually dropped as though it wasn't even... -

TmarTn and Syndicate Get Off Scott Free After Promoting Gambling Site to Minors
TmarTn and ProSyndicate have gotten away with little more than a stern warning after it was discovered that they were promoting Counter-Strike: Global Offensive gambling sites to minors. Specifically, they were promoting CS:GO gambling sites that they owned to minors, without any sort of disclosure. The two had paid other, unnamed, YouTubers anywhere between $2,500 (USD) and $55,000 to promote their sites. Well, the FTC has investigated and surprise, surprise, the two will face no pen... -

The roster includes religious figures such as good ol' Jesus "JC" Christ, Buddha, Zeus, Odin, and more. Turns out that Malaysia, specifically the Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission, weren't too happy about that game. They went ahead and banned the entire country from accessing the Steam store. They feel as tho... -

by Shawn ZipayIt's a fairly stacked month.
May and into June is usually when the mid-year lull begins for new game releases. Yet here we are in June 2023 and there are some big games either already out or coming out in the weeks ahead.
There are several games coming out this month, many of which you might call "bangers" that you might just happen to have your eye on. This month's poll is simple and probably a retread of a poll (or several) that have been done in the past....Street Fighter 60%0Amnesia: The Bunker0%0Diablo 450.00%1Aliens: Dark Descent0%0Final Fantasy 16100.00%2AEW Fight Forever0%0Crash Team Rumble0%0-
