The 90s is often considered the decade where the best video games ever created were published and I firmly consider this to be true. The gamers of that era like myself saw and experienced the release of 3D video games like never before. Also, the 90s is considered the resurgence of the video games industry because the industry nearly went bankrupt in the 1980s. It’s funny because in the 80s the industry was almost over but the next decade were released some of the best video games ever made… That’s how you should make a comeback. Today we are going…

Many of you already know what is a sandbox video game but many of you may get confused with the term so I will say it: a sandbox video game is a video game with elements that allow you to have more creativity to interact with. Usually sandbox games are associated with the open world concept and that is one of the reasons why it is called “sandbox”; the term is derived from a sandbox where children create nearly anything they want to create. Today we are going to choose the best sandbox video games ever made so let’s begin.…

There are so many moments in video games that make us bang our head against the desk, thrown the controller against the wall, or even punch the TV or monitor. And one of the reasons why we do such things is because of a very tough boss fight. We all have been there; we all fought a boss that made us wonder why we bought this goddamn game in the first place, but you continue fighting because you never give up, right? The joy we feel when we finally beat the boss is incomparable and, in the end, all the…

As some of you may already know, FIFA and EA Sports are parting ways and stopping the creation of their beloved football video game series FIFA. So, instead of waiting for FIFA 24 to be realised, we will be expecting a new football game by EA Sports called EA Sports FC. This will be the first ever solo football game they have realised. The game is expected to be available on 29th September 2023, however, it could be released earlier on 12th August 2023, when the Premier league season begins. As we all know, FIFA has changed throughout the years…

Call of Duty is the number one world leading shooter video game. Over two decades old, Call of Duty has three game developers that take it in turns each year to produce a the next Call of Duty. As you may already know, there has already been a Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, however, this will be a brand new updated version of that game. Last year, we saw Infinity Ward release an updated version of the nostalgic Modern Warfare 2. Players were extremely excited for this release however, the game died down quicker than expected. For this coming…

E3 2023’s cancellation has done absolutely nothing to stem the tide of game publishers and developers wanting to show off their latest exciting works. Whether it’s Ubisoft giving us in-depth looks at the gameplay for some of its upcoming titles or Xbox firing off trailer after trailer, summer 2023 has been a great time for game reveals, surprises, and old favourites making triumphant returns. Here are some of the best game announcements, release dates, and other reveals we got to see as part of this year’s definitely-not-E3 celebration of all things gaming!

It’s been a funny old year for Microsoft so far, hasn’t it? Early last year, the company announced it would acquire Activision Blizzard, one of the biggest game developers and publishers in the world, for a staggering $68.7 billion. This year saw that deal frustrated by the UK’s Competition and Markets Authority, which means Microsoft might not get its fairytale wedding after all. In addition, the high-profile and very public failure of Arkane’s Redfall means Microsoft is hurting for essential gaming experiences to draw people towards Xbox hardware. It’s time for Microsoft to step up to the plate, so…

After the absolutely mammoth success that was The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (a success that’s only going to keep growing, we have no doubt), the Nintendo Switch seems to be sitting pretty atop a throne nobody else can challenge.  Tears of the Kingdom is going to take some serious beating, not only from Nintendo itself but also from other triple-A challengers, and so nobody could blame Nintendo and its console for taking a victory lap in July. However, there are still more great Switch games to come, so let’s take a look at the best Nintendo…

Video games are both huge and immersive, and sometimes you can find some secrets that will make you laugh or sometimes will confuse you due to its weirdness. Those secrets are called “easter eggs”; they are a hidden surprise or an extra feature and since the beginning they have been an important part for die-hard gamers. The term “easter egg” was coined by Steve Wright back in 1979 because these secrets reminded him of “hunting easter eggs”. Today we have selected the best easter eggs in the history of video games, probably you already know some of them, so I…

Difficulty is part of the systems we interact when we are playing video games. Back in the 80s, in the golden age of arcade halls, difficulty was used primarily to encourage players to keep inserting coins, then with the arrival of consoles, it was used to extend gameplay time. Over the years, video games have become more accessible, allowing players to complete them, and adapting the difficulty to their abilities. Although there are exceptions, and this article wants to show you some of the most difficult missions/levels of video games. So if you are looking for a challenge, you will…

The world is divided into two types of people: those who love plot twists and those who hate them. I personally love them because I love surprises because a plot twist can be a gamer’s best friend. In the last decade, developers have started to apply plot twists to video games more frequently and today this literary technique is one of the most beloved by fans because it brings more power to the history. Today we are going to be choosing the 10 best plot twists in the history of video games so sit back and enjoy this top. Let’s…

It can sometimes feel like PC gaming is in a somewhat rough spot. Many games being released for the platform are landing in the form of lacklustre ports with poor optimisation, meaning that even PC gamers with the latest and greatest hardware are being left out in the cold in many cases.  Even with that being said, though, for many, PC remains the best platform on which to play thanks to its extensive customisation options, superior graphical capabilities (assuming you’ve got a top-of-the-range machine, of course) and huge software library. That library is set to expand even further soon,…

It’s hard to feel like Nintendo isn’t reaching the end of an era. Despite the fact that Nintendo of America head Doug Bowser has assured gamers and journalists alike that the Switch isn’t nearing the end of its life, the console is inarguably beginning to struggle with some of its more demanding games in a technical sense. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet pushed the Switch to its absolute limits and beyond, and The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will also put the console through its paces. With that in mind, the lineup for Switch games in June 2023…

Sometimes, it feels like PC gamers are especially hard done by. Recently, somewhat lacklustre ports of The Last of Us Part I and Star Wars Jedi: Survivor caused consternation among PC gamers, who lamented the games’ poor performance even on higher-end machines, and there are plenty of other examples of major AAA game releases seemingly snubbing PC gamers.  Even still, we think that PC gaming remains one of the most exciting and engaging ways to enjoy games, so let’s take a look at the best PC games coming in June 2023. Let’s hope these games’ PC versions are ready…

Microsoft may not be trying to win the hardware race, but it’s certainly doing a good job of providing quality hardware nonetheless. The Xbox Series X is trailing the PS5 in terms of sales, but the comparison isn’t quite fair thanks to Microsoft’s less powerful, less costly Xbox Series S (although sales for the two combined are still lagging behind Sony’s machine). Still, if you’re an Xbox Series X/S owner, you’ll find lots of games to look forward to in June 2023, so let’s take a look at the best titles heading to Microsoft’s console ecosystem this month. Killer…

For many years, the portable games console never truly took off. Nowadays, with both smartphones and tablets capable of handling games of varying sizes, you’d think that the market for a portable games console has closed. However, Nintendo successfully managed to silence the doubters when they released their Switch back in 2017. Throughout recent history, it isn’t just the Switch that has been both a commercial and critical success. There have been many portable consoles released over the years, and here are our top five. Nintendo Switch While we’re rattling on about the Nintendo Switch, we may as well continue…

At the moment, there are many areas of application for both virtual and augmented reality. Everyone knows about the games whose developers use these technologies. But today, VR and AR do not only benefit gamers and serve as entertainment. Our world is now fully digitalized. Most professions are associated with working online, that is, at a computer. This adds to the convenience of being connected to work from anywhere in the world, but we also relax most often on a computer, phone, or video game.

Unless you’ve completely avoided all popular culture for the last 25 years, it’s pretty much impossible that you haven’t at least heard of South Park. The satirical animated show created by Matt Stone and Trey Parker got its start all the way back in 1997, and it’s arguably still going strong today; many fans say it hasn’t lost its lustre in the same way as, say, Family Guy or The Simpsons have.  Of course, one area in which South Park does endure a somewhat spotty legacy is the world of gaming. Compiling a list of “the best” South Park…

Sony’s PlayStation 3 is perhaps not quite remembered as a flop, but the Xbox 360 is considered the winner of its respective generation by many. This, however, is a misunderstanding; sales data shows us that the PS3 actually sold better than the Xbox 360, so in terms of pure numbers, the PlayStation 3 emerged victorious.  That’s at least in part thanks to a huge library of great games, not least of which were single-player masterpieces like The Last of Us and God of War 3. However, the PS3’s multiplayer lineup is not to be sniffed at either, so let’s take…

When you’re putting together a high-quality streaming or recording setup, you can’t skimp on quality when it comes to your microphone.

Of course, it can be hard to know what a quality mic looks like, especially if you don’t want to spend a lot of money to get…

The Nintendo Switch is a console that was never considered the most powerful or the better console in the current market, but the possibility of turning a table console into a portable one brought critical acclaim to the latest Nintendo creation. Without a doubt its popularity is almost the same as the Xbox Series X/S or the Play Station 5, something that both the Wii and the Wii U weren’t able to accomplish. Now, sports games on Switch are different when you compare them to the other sports games on Xbox, Play Station, etc. In this case, Switch’s sport games…
