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...
 

Report: E3 2023 is Canceled

This fate was inevitable.

According to a report by IGN, E3 2023 is canceled. This comes after weeks of publishers and gaming companies stating that they were not going to attend E3 this year, including Ubisoft, Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, Sega, Tencent, and more.

IGN's report from March 30 says that two separate sources confirmed with them that the Entertainment Software Association (ESA; the group behind E3) sent out emails to ESA members earlier today announcing the cancellation....

    Spoilers for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom are Leaking Online

    You should probably stay off the Internet for a while if concerned.

    With The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom being just a week and a half away from release, it stands to reason that some people are getting their copies earlier than they should. It also stands to reason that because people are getting copies early, they want to share the game with others for a quick 15 minutes of fame.

    Well, this obviously means that there are now spoilers out there for Tears of the...

    UK Markets Authority Throws Shade at Nintendo Hardware

    At least this one isn't about cloud gaming.

    The UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) blocked the merger of Microsoft and Activision Blizzard on the grounds of how it would stifle cloud gaming competition. As absolutely ridiculous as that sounds, that wasn't the only weird thing the CMA decreed during yesterday's vote and report.

    The CMA also claims in their final report (PDF link) that Nintendo's consoles are not technically capable of running games like Call of...

    Quantum Break Returns to Steam and Game Pass

    The licensing issues were resolved in less than a month.

    On April 7, 2023 Remedy Entertainment pulled Quantum Break from both Steam and Game Pass on the PC. At the time, Remedy says that the game was pulled while they work out some issues centering on expired licenses. It was also at that time that Remedy says the process to renew those licenses had already begun.

    Today, Quantum Break returns to both Steam and Game Pass. That's especially good news for Steam users because...
