It’s fair to say that the console war between Microsoft and Sony has taken on a very different shape to how it originally looked back in the 2000s. These days, Microsoft’s ecosystem is spreading over more than just Xbox consoles; the company is taking a hybrid approach, focusing on both PC and Xbox and attempting to achieve a degree of parity between the two. As such, traditional Xbox-only exclusives are generally rare these days; for the most part, Xbox games also launch on PC, and so any analyst still calling for “Xbox exclusives” is lagging behind the times. Of course,…

It’s easy to feel smug as a PC gamer. Where console gamers bicker and squabble over the exclusives to which they have access, PC gamers can usually sit in their comfortable gaming chairs and smile knowingly at the vast library of games available to them. More and more games are coming along each and every day for PC, too, and many of the “exclusives” that once graced PlayStation and Xbox are also appearing on PC these days, meaning that it’s hard to argue a PC doesn’t represent the best gaming platform out there right now. January 2024 looks to have…

Some computer games have a cult status among fans of all ages. They may not have the best graphics or most sophisticated gameplay, but fans just can’t get enough. One such game is Five Nights at Freddy’s. If you have ever played this game (or even just seen the 2023 film of the same name), you have encountered the sinister William Afton in some form or other. But the big question fans ask is whether he is based on a real person. The internet just can’t seem to decide! What is Five Nights at Freddy’s? Five Nights at Freddy’s is…

Did you know that you can emulate the Android smartphone and tablet operating system on your PC?It’s true – a number of enterprising developers have created some pretty incredible Android emulators that work perfectly with PCs, allowing you to access any number of great apps from the comfort of your laptop or desktop. As is the case for many emulators, though, the quality of these apps can be somewhat variable, with some emulators working much better and providing a much smoother user experience than others. It can be hard to know which of these emulators is worth your time, even…

The best Ubisoft games are a fascinating topic. Ubisoft is one of the most famous and biggest video game developers out there, and while they received a lot of criticism for relying on old franchise games instead of creating new IPs, a lot of their games are classics and highly rated. The good thing about Ubisoft is that there’s a lot of variety; you have stealth games, family-friendly games, single-player games, multiplayer games, and more. It has spawned the Assassin’s Creed series, the Splinter Cell series, the Watch Dogs series, and many more. So, today, we are going to rank…

The Nintendo 3DS is one of the most popular handheld consoles of all time. According to sales data, the 3DS managed to sell 75.94 million units across its lifetime, which puts it slightly behind the PlayStation Portable (or PSP) and a fair distance ahead of the NES. While that means the 3DS didn’t quite achieve the popularity of the DS, it was by no means a failure, with a huge library of excellent games launching for the console across its lifespan. Titles like The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D, Fire Emblem: Awakening, and Pokemon X and Y gave 3DS…

When it comes to dispatching bosses – or, indeed, other players – in gaming, you want the most powerful weapon available. Your arsenal needs to be filled with screen-clearing laser rifles and powerful explosives, especially if the game in question is a power fantasy allowing you to live out your wildest demon-slaying dreams. Gaming is no stranger to overpowered weaponry, and it’s more problematic in some instances than in others; after all, when one player gets their hands on an overpowered weapon in a multiplayer game, it’s going to cause issues for other players. Here are the top 15 most…

It’s finally happened. After many years of speculation, rumours, and leaks, Rockstar has officially unveiled the next chapter in the Grand Theft Auto series, Grand Theft Auto 6. A new trailer was released for the game on December 5th, several hours early, after being leaked ahead of its intended release window. That trailer may not have given too much away about what you’ll actually see when you fire up Grand Theft Auto 6 for the first time, but it did contain tons of new information about Rockstar’s upcoming crime opus. Here’s everything we know about Grand Theft Auto 6 from…

At the time of writing, the PlayStation 4 is the fifth best-selling console of all time, managing to shift an astonishing 117.2 million units across its lifetime. Technically, of course, the PS4 is still going strong; many games are still being produced for the console, and while support is arguably winding down now, the PS5 hasn’t quite supplanted the PS4 just yet. Still, since Sony appears to be getting ready to sunset the little black monolith, we thought now would be a good time to look at the best the PS4 library has to offer. Without further ado, here are…

The PlayStation 2 is arguably the greatest video game console of all time. It played host to a golden age of excellent games, including Shadow of the Colossus, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, and Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening, to name but a few. As is very often the case, though, when a platform is successful, it doesn’t just attract great developers with excellent ideas; it also finds itself the home of many games that occupy the other side of that particular coin. Without further ado, we’d like to take a look at…

In the ever-evolving landscape of online gaming, modded accounts have emerged as a contentious topic, sparking debates among gamers, developers, and industry experts alike.

Prior to delving into the intricate realm of modded accounts, it’s best to first establish what modded accounts actually are. Read on to learn more.

It’s fair to say that as time goes on, the PlayStation 4 is losing more and more support from both Sony and third-party studios. There are, of course, still plenty of great gaming experiences to be had with Sony’s last-gen machine, with a huge amount of PS4 games available, but if you’re still a PS4-exclusive gamer, you might want to start considering jumping to the PS5 ship. December isn’t usually the most active month for game releases, but the pickings for PS4 this month are particularly slim, unfortunately, with just a handful of games hitting the console’s storefront this holiday…

Tis the season to be jolly, as they say, and it’s also the season to take time off work and finally get around to that backlog you’ve been meaning to tackle. December is usually a quieter month for game releases, and that’s certainly the case in 2023 as well, although your Xbox Series X/S can’t take a rest just yet. There are still a few games lining up for those who haven’t filled up their holiday stocking yet, so whether you’re looking for immersive RPGs, adventure games, or anything in between, you’ll find what you’re after in December. Here are…

Another month has gone by without Nintendo mentioning the successor to the Switch, so it’s starting to look like it might be a while before we hear anything concrete about it. Still, that does make a certain kind of sense. While the Switch is certainly aging from a technical perspective, the library for the machine is still growing, and great games like Super Mario RPG and Persona 5 Tactica are keeping it alive and healthy. December 2023, while nowhere near as packed as previous months in the year, is shaping up to be another solid month for Switch games, so…

Recently, Nintendo announced that it would be ending online support for 3DS and Wii U games. Along with the closure of the 3DS eShop earlier this year, the announcement effectively marked the final end of the 3DS and Wii U era; of course, no new games were being produced for the consoles, but this feels very much like the final nail, so to speak. With that in mind, then, this feels like the perfect time to reminisce about the 3DS’ exceptional library. Some truly excellent games were produced for Nintendo’s handheld, many of which you can still find if you’re…

We all have had that experience when we are enjoying our video game until we stumble across a level that will be extremely challenging and hard to beat because of the enemies, the map itself, or even the objectives. Overcoming a challenge is always good and when you are able to finish a hard and punishing level, you know you are better than before. Hard and complex levels in video game are a double-edged sword; they give more immersion and importance to the video games but they can annoy the player if they don’t like challenges. These are ranking the…
