Today sees the release of Destroy All Humans! 2 - Reprobed. This is said to be "a completely remade" release of the classic action game where you are a disgruntled alien wreaking havoc on humans. While this is said to be a "remake" I think this is more akin to a remaster given that it plays identical to the original release, bugs and all. At this point, publishers and developers calling things remakes, remasters, or re-whatevers are so muddied...
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.

2K Confirms Mafia 4 is in Development
It's still quite a few years away though.
In early May, we learned that Hangar 13 may have started work on a new entry in the Mafia franchise. The news hit when an internal email made its way out to the public following the departure of a couple of high-ranking employees. An official announcement of the game, learned to be a prequel, was not made at the time.
Today, 2K and Hangar 13 confirm that a new Mafia game is in development at Hangar 13. Unfortunately, the short... -

That Terrible Netflix Resident Evil Series is Already Canceled
This probably doesn't come as much of a surprise.
After just one season, the Resident Evil Netflix series has been canceled. The first, and only, eight episodes made their initial debut on July 14. This report came first from Deadline.
The Resident Evil series did debut in the top 3 rankings on Netflix, but quickly fell off the charts after its third week. The series was panned by critics and fans of the Resident Evil franchise alike. It earned a pitiful 55% critical consensus... -

Countless six-person teams will be racing to try to earn the title of "World's First" along with a swanky physical belt that Bungie sends to the team that was verified to complete the raid before all other challengers.... -

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-
