All things gaming
Preface I’ve been playing Rocket League on and off since the day it was released on the Xbox One. However, I feel like I’ve barely improved. That said, I don’t really mind. This game is just pure fun. The gist For those unfamiliar with Rocket League, simply put, it’s using cars to play […]
Preface In a well-timed accidental meeting of each other online, myself, Frostos and Tommygunlovers were able to finally give co-op a go in Assassin’s Creed: Unity. With very little expectation, we dived in! Free-roam = chaos I had no idea free-roam was an option, I thought we had a few special co-op missions to try, […]
Preface Ok, so my last Hearthstone post was about getting into it and giving it a go. This is a little update on that, and my thoughts on it after playing it a little over the past few days. Thoughts Well, I did what I set out to do, and unlocked all the classes/characters, […]
Preface Ok, so I’m a fan of the Assassin’s Creed series, I’ve played and finished them almost religiously. Until…..I got tired of the franchise. No major changes for years, and the same old clunky controls, in an era of open-world games that have fluid fight systems (Batman Arkham series) and fluid movement, it started to […]
Preface The open technical beta was opened up last week for a few days. I got access to the closed beta, but had no time to try it. So this time, myself and Fr0st0s took it upon ourselves to have a look at it this weekend. Loads of fun, dodgy vehicle controls and getting stuck […]
Preface I’m not particularly familiar with the Warcraft franchise or the lore, so this, to me is a card game, using characters/creatures etc that I am assuming come from that world. I’ve heard a lot about Hearthstone, all good. So I figured “why not?”. I’ve done the initial 5 missions that you have to do, […]
Preface Ok, so I love the halo universe, have done since Combat Evolved, and I’ve sunk hours of my life into these games. I’ve read a few of the books, I’ve finished campaigns on every difficulty, and I love the depth of the lore that has been created. I played the original Halo Wars, loved […]
I love the Hitman franchise, always have, and I’ve played most of the series, start-to-finish. Some great, some not so, but always fun to be had, somewhere in the levels. Switching between stealth and blatantly walking through a place wearing a disguise, it’s always a fun time! This time, wrenches in the face are part of […]
Preface I read a massive amount of content around games and gaming. It used to be just a couple of previews or reviews about a game I was excited to play, usually in a magazine like the Nintendo Official Magazine (Buck Bumble, anyone?), Amiga Power back in the day, and now, on occasion I read […]
These weren’t all necessarily released this year, but they have taken my time in 2016 and they have all been excellent. So much still to play and finish, and to continue! How many of these games will be on the 2017 list, too? Destiny and Pokemon wouldn’t surprise me at all! Here’s to an excellent […]
