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...
 

It's Finally Over - Activision Blizzard Joins Xbox

As it turns out, this corporate version of Mr. Bones' Wild Ride does actually end.

This also means that Activision Blizzard IPs such as Call of Duty, World of Warcraft, Overwatch, Candy Crush Saga, and hundreds more are now owned by Microsoft.

Review: RIG 900 MAX HX Wireless Headset

My new daily driver.

We are once again delving into the world of gaming headsets, this time with a spotlight shining brightly on Nacon's RIG 900 MAX HX. Priced at $249.99 (USD), the 900 MAX HX aims to be a more premium and feature-filled offering than the RIG 600 PRO HS we recently reviewed. 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...

    Outlast 2 Review (PC)


    Horror Tropes: The Game
    The best thing I can possibly say about Red Barrels' latest horror experience, Outlast 2, is that fans of the original will absolutely eat this game up. And much like its predecessor, I found that Outlast 2 does next to nothing to advance the survival horror genre in any meaningful way. Newcomers to the franchise will probably wonder what all the hype is about and may find that their experience was worth the $30 asking price. While I am sure that many...

    NES Classic Sold 2.3 Million Units Before Being Discontinued

    Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime told Time that the NES Classic sold 2.3 million units before the company decided to piss off a lot of would-be consumers and cease production.
    "We had originally planned for this to be a product for last holiday. We just didn't anticipate how incredible the response would be. Once we saw that response, we added shipments and extended the product for as long as we could to meet more of that consumer demand."
    The demand constantly outweighed ...

    D.Va Returns to Overwatch After Severe Bug Sidelined Her

    Last night, Blizzard made the unusual move of disabling D.Va from all Overwatch game modes on the PC. This was a result of a bug that Blizzard has since patched up. D.Va has been brought back to active duty in all game modes.

    Details on the bug were outlined by Blizzard through Battle.net.
    Following the release of today's 1.10.1 patch, we've seen a significant rise in the number of reported client crashes. Based on our investigation, we've determined these crashes are

    #Overwatch Due to a bug currently under investigation, DVa is temporarily disabled in all regions. Thank you for your patience!

    There is no ETA on when this issue will be resolved. It must be something incredibly severe to resort to totally disable a character in the game....

    Forza Horizon 3 Getting Special Hot Wheels Content

    Hot Wheels. Just saying those words will probably remind most people of their childhood and those little die-cast cars racing around on the floor. Those who were really into them picked up tracks specially made for the cars. They had loops, speed boosts, crazy banks, and could often be connected in countless ways for infinite possibilities.

    Cut to 2017 and we now see Hot Wheels teaming up for some over the top content in Forza Horizon 3. Turn 10 just revealed Forza Horizon...

    Let's just take a little glimpse at some of the games that came out this year that scored a 90 or higher. We had Baldur's Gate 3 in August, The Legend of Zelda:...
