After standing in line for the midnight release of Unity last year and getting home to a broken game that I couldn’t even bring myself to finish (despite the enormous amount of potential that the setting provided), I was afraid for Syndicate (though, at the time, we all thought we’d be playing a game called Assassin’s Creed Victory). Would Syndicate make the same mistakes that Unity did? Would this ...

Halloween is upon us, and, for gamers, that can only mean one thing: It’s time to play (or replay) some amazing horror-based games. Video games have become just as much of a Halloween tradition as scary movies, haunted houses, and pumpkin patches. Every year, we feel an itch to turn the lights off, turn on our consoles, and willingly subject ...

In the beginning, there was Halo: Combat Evolved, and while it was incredibly basic by modern standards, it was good. Then came Halo 2, and though the ending was somewhat controversial, it too was good, expanding upon what made Halo great in every aspect from storytelling to multiplayer. And soon, Halo 3 followed to finish the fight, introducing some new ...

Guitar Hero Live marks the return of a series that changed the rhythm game genre forever when it began in 2005. After 2010, it seemed like the series was dead. Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock launched, but it looked like that was the end of things. Industry experts declared that the era of plastic guitar controllers was over, and we believed them. Now, though, in ...

Onigiri was released in Japan last year, and now it’s finally available in North America. Though you could technically access the game from any Xbox One in the world by changing the system settings, it wasn’t very useful unless you can speak Japanese. After playing the Japanese version for a bit, I couldn’t wait for the game to launch in North ...

Castle Crashers was one of the biggest games on the Xbox 360’s Xbox Live Arcade. Its bright art style, excellent multiplayer, and insanely fun gameplay made it an instant hit. Since then, we haven’t really seen much like it. Thankfully, The Behemoth has seen it fit to bring the glorious adventure into the next generation with Castle Crashers Remastered on Xbox One. ...

Still on the fence on whether or not you should continue your adventures in Destiny with The Taken King? Wondering how much of the base game can you still play even without the DLC? Then you’re in luck, because for the sake of science, the changes that came with the Taken King are fairly easy to catalog. What you are ...

Like almost every other game these days, Destiny just got a major update to prepare for the upcoming Taken King expansion pack. Weighing in at around 18 GB, a substantial amount of content was added and tweaked, especially in regards to the Crucible PvP mode. But the question is, is it enough to bring back people who may have left ...

Mike Ybarra, Director of Program Management for Xbox, has released new details about the New Xbox One Experience that will be arriving later this year and how Xbox One Preview Members can get their hands on it. When it arrives, it will be the largest update that the Xbox One has received to date. It’s set to give the console ...

Skyrim, Oblivion, Morrowind, pretty much all of the Fallouts; Bethesda has a track record for making some pretty huge games. I’ve played more hours than I’d care to count on Skyrim and that’s without the addition of its DLCs. With that said, the DLC’s themselves also have a track record of being quite substantial. The Shivering Isles DLC, way back when, could ...
