All things gaming
Releasing a new “live service” game never goes well, does it? Especially when it’s a brand new entry into the market, like Anthem. A new series with it’s own style and flair. Look at Destiny, The Division, Warframe. All in much better places now, but they all went through a rough start. Anthem, from BioWare/EA, […]
I’ve spent quite a substantial amount of time in Assassin’s Creed Syndicate since I last wrote about it, and I’ve got a couple of sequences left to do. Having nearly cleared-out nearly all of the districts in London, I’m getting kitted up and ready to hit the final sequences head-on as the Frye Twins. Approximately […]
I’ve written multiple times of my love for the Legend of Zelda series. Beyond that, I’ve written about my need to “complete” Breath of the Wild and my reluctance to do so….. Well, I have. Kind of. How do you “complete” a game quite so large in scale as The Legend of Zelda -Breath of […]
I’ve toyed with the idea of getting one of the newer Assassin’s Creed games recently. Either Origins or Odyssey. Critically acclaimed, apparent game-changers for the series. Beyond that, I’ve played and finished every “main” entry in the series all the way up to Unity (not classing “Rogue” as one of these, but I’ll get to […]
It’s no lie to say that I’ve gotten back into Sea of Thieves recently. With it being a better realised version of the game when it was released last year. Of course I’ve already written a bit about that, and I could go on and on about how much love and effort Rare have put […]
Sea of Thieves came out on March 20th 2018. I was very keen to give it a go. Who wouldn’t be? Living out the pirate fantasy in a game made by Rare no less! Note: Goldeneye & Perfect Dark are two of my all-time favourite games. Rare are a very big deal to me, like […]
I’ve been on a bit of a Call of Duty Black Ops 4 binge as of late. Namely, I quite enjoy a bit of Blackout (surprise!). There have been a couple of changes to the initial map, different vehicles, and a particularly fun hardcore mode that removes the heads-up display, the map, armour and vehicles. […]
Firestorm. Strong name isn’t it? Well, yeah, and it makes literal sense because the classic “moving circle” in your usual battle royale game is usually a little non-descript, with only Fortnite trying to give it purpose/sense. Battlefield V has a ring of fire that slowly encircles areas of the map, and it brings destruction with […]
Battlefront 2 isn’t exactly a well-loved EA game, is it? With a massive (justified) furore surrounding its release and the awful practices with regards to lootboxes and grinding for in-game gear. You could argue notoriety more than anything else. So, I’ve held off, eventually not really being too fussed about giving it a go. Sure, […]
It’s almost cool to hate on Anthem at the minute. Not without good cause, for some of it. But in my first few hours I’ve found myself pretty happy flying around, talking to people and unlocking new Javelins. I’m maybe 20 hours total since the February 22nd release (not the initial release……..but the non-official “proper […]
