In mid-November we learned which lucky developers had their games nominated for the 2011 Spike Video Game Awards and today the votes are in. This year’s VGAs were hosted by Chuck star Zachary Levi and as usual, we were treated to a series of new video game trailers and a few unveilings of brand new games, including Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us and BioWare’s Command & Conquer: Generals 2....
I always viewed Bring it On as the quintessential teen comedy film. It’s not a perfect movie by any stretch of the imagination, but it terms of what it is, and what it tries to be, you really can’t find a better movie than this one. I was introduced to Bring it On very early in my life. Growing up with two cheerleader sisters was a huge factor in that one....
A few days ago, some rumors began circulating that the upcoming Halo Infinite would be launching with a battle royale option. One of the hottest sub-genres in gaming right now, it does make some sense considering titles like Fortnite and Apex Legends are raking in billions on microtransactions. Halo is ripe for a mode like that, but that likely isn’t going to be on the cards. At least, it won’t be according to Halo Infinite community director Brian Jarrard....
Pokémon Home is Nintendo’s newest entry to its online storage system program, but maybe it’s just not worth it. Though the platform has seen early success, grossing 2.6 million dollars in its first month of availability, you shouldn’t be convinced that easily. Yes, the concept is grand– a box that can store and transfer up to 6,000 of your Pokémon from previous games seems lovely. However, that comes at a cost....
Destiny 2 fans have speculated for a while that Gambit, the combined PvE/PvP multiplayer activity introduced in 2018’s Forsaken expansion, and Gambit Prime, the more competitive version released in Season of the Drifter, would eventually be consolidated into one mode (which, following Destiny naming convention, could be “Gambit Perfected”). Alas, Bungie recently confirmed that this would be the case, with the new version of Gambit taking cues from both Prime and the original....
In the world of role-playing games (RPGs), The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim are two of the most highly acclaimed games. Their central characters are Geralt of Rivia and the Last Dragonborn, respectively. With both of these warriors having years of experience under their belt, it raises the question of who would win a battle? Unquestionably, the mythic clash would be hard-fought. Both are magic users, projectile shooters, and sword-wielders....
Halo is a long and storied franchise for Xbox gamers (and PC players too). The first-person shooter hit the scene in 2001 and legitimized Microsoft’s new console, changing the way a majority of players interacted with games. Since that time, the series has remained a favorite for shooter fans and online multiplayer fanatics. With a new entry in the franchise on the way, then, we can’t help but wonder what will come next....
When it comes to science fiction RPGs, any RPG fan worth their salt will usually recall these two masterpiece franchises: Mass Effect and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Both were made or popularized by Bioware, one of the biggest developers in the said genre back then and Mass Effect was the studio’s attempt at breaking free from George Lucas’ intellectual property and making something of its own. As such, comparisons are inevitable between these two great sci-fi trendsetters of the RPG genre....
Nintendo took the gaming world by storm when they released the Wii back in 2006. Not only did the system provide much-needed innovation with its motion controls, but it also gave fans some of the best gaming experiences of that console generation. Unfortunately, not every game released for the Wii is as fondly remembered as others. These games are better off forgotten and should be used as examples of what not to do when creating video games....
As Gears of War: Judgment is looking to prove: even old dogs can learn a few new tricks. With a new Gears of War adventure based around Damon Baird, and set years before the events of the original game, Epic Games and People Can Fly are showing that the franchise is bigger than Marcus Fenix. The question that comes to us, then, is ‘why stop there?’ The extended Gears fiction is packed with colorful characters and missions tailor-made for gameplay, so if Judgment is a sign that Epic is willing to do more than just straightforward sequels, they have plenty of directions to take....
Disney and Pixar’s Luca is arriving this summer, so it makes sense that both studios are promoting the film with a new poster. The titular character in this promotional artwork is lying on the beach in his true monstrous form. It goes well with the concept of the film, which has Luca explore a human world within a transformed body. He meets a friend in an Italian riviera town and, according to the synopsis that Collider found, the film is a “coming-of-age story about one young boy experiencing an unforgettable summer filled with gelato, pasta and endless scooter rides....
A new job listing from Rockstar North has sparked rumours that the next game from the studio is close to completion. As spotted by The National, the Rockstar careers page was recently updated with the role of game tester. The fact that the developer is hiring a game tester is indicative of the state of its next game, hinting that it might be further along in development than we previously thought....
The Nintendo Switch is a one-of-a-kind machine. It can pretty much be used as a tablet where gamers can play right on the small screen, or they can “switch” it to a loading dock to have fun on a larger television. Nintendo definitely tapped into the fact that everyone likes to have options in how they play video games. One thing that people also like to have control over is how their video game consoles represent them....
Pokémon was released to the public in 1996 in Japan, and 1998 in America. It became a giant phenomenon and would become one of the biggest video game franchises of all time. It’s hard to come across someone who doesn’t know about Pokémon. It has card games, video games… even mobile apps! Pokémon are a lot like animals: some are cute, others downright terrifying. At Pokémon’s core, it’s about catching and training Pokémon to battle other trainers....
Ask any gamer what their thoughts on microtransactions in gaming are and odds are the response will be negative. For years now players have been struggling with games locking powerful items behind paywalls and creating pay to win scenarios, restricting the coolest cosmetics to those willing to shell out some real life money. Despite the system’s negative perception among many, it seems to be very popular as well, as Activision-Blizzard’s newest financial report reveals....
This All American review contains spoilers. All American Season 3, Episode 8 All American just doesn’t quit when it comes to prioritizing mental health, and we love to see it. We’re reeling from the aftermath of what happened in Vegas, and what this means for Spencer (Daniel Ezra) and Olivia (Samantha Logan) and even Layla (Greta Onieogou). But first, we take a mental health day. I really loved how Laura decided to give the twins a “mental health day” to regroup....
This American Gods review is based on the first four episodes of the season. There are so many possible entry points to Starz’ American Gods. The TV series adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s bestselling book about religion, immigration, and the fight for the soul of America is an embarrassment of riches when it comes to talent both in front of and behind the camera. Are you a Neil Gaiman fan? A Bryan Fuller fan?...
