Alan Wake 2 Review: A Must-Play Psychological Horror Experience

Easily, the best horror game in years.

In 2010 Remedy Entertainment released Alan Wake, a game where a writer is pulled into a horrifying world seemingly of his own creation. Alan Wake was a game that I bounced off at least two times. Despite the game being well received by critics and fans, I felt like its gameplay was just a repetitive slog that even its unique story could not overcome. When a sequel was announced by Remedy, I found myself extremely indifferent to the news. Still...

Featuring the same dual-wireless connectivity as the 600 PROs, the 900 MAX HX sets itself apart thanks to Dolby Personalized audio support with Dolby Atmos 3D, plus a charging base station, a more...
 

Review: Starfield

A safe, if not soulless, journey through the cosmos.

Bethesda Game Studios releases are safe. They are familiar. You know almost exactly what to expect when a major new release from them rolls around. They instill a feeling of "I know this game won't be groundbreaking, but I know I'll have fun." Yes, there are some obvious differences, but the heart of each Bethesda game is almost universally the same. The recent release of Starfield is no different. To put it bluntly: Starfield is Fall...

    Project Scorpio Officially Called Xbox One X; Releasing November 7 at $500

    Microsoft finally gave an official name for Project Scorpio today. They're calling the next Xbox revision the Xbox One X. It will retail for $499 (USD) and is coming out on November 7.

    Microsoft really, and I mean really, hammered home the whole "4K" power of this system. I was trying to do a counter for how many times "4K" was said during the conference and I lost track mere minutes into it. Xbox One X has "6 teraflops of processing power" and "12GB GDDR5 graphic memory."...
