That crap got old last year, but that hasn’t stopped the “joke” from being driven into the ground. TheBayonettadevelopershave finally respondedto the endless accusations that their titular character resembles the former Vice Presidential candidate. When recently asked about the comparisons, a weary Hideki Kamiya (director) asked, “People are still talking about that?...

PS5 Pro – leaks, rumors, release window, specs, and more

The PS5 is Sony’s most powerful console to date, and I think it runs incredibly well. But gone are the days when a console could carry itself through an entire generation, as a potential PS5 Pro is looking more likely than ever. Sony is no stranger to iterating on its consoles. We’ve had several versions of the PSP, colored variants of the PS2, and slimline models of the PS3 and PS4....

Review in Progress: Dishonored 2

Just the two of us There was something aboutDishonoredthat prevented me from loving it like literally everyone else when it was released back in 2012. I eventually warmed up to it with the DLC and the spectacular characterization of Daud, but Corvo’s tale left me with a sense of emptiness after the credits rolled. I get that he was supposed to be the player, assuming the form of a power fantasy, and adhering to the narrative of essentially a Batman-esque figure in his fall from grace from a place he once called home....

Review in Progress: Triangle Strategy

Choices, consequences, and convictions Some say war never changes. And indeed,Triangle Strategyfeels immediately familiar to anyone who’s played a tactics game in the past.

It’s where Square Enix and Artdink build on top of the pillars, adding their own touches and twists, that you start to see hints of it becoming much greater. Triangle Strategyfeels old and new at the same time....
