Digital Foundry took the time to make a comparison video of the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game (PC players didn’t get a demo) to take a hard look at performance. It’s especially notable because Prey was built in Cry Engine, which doesn’t have the greatest history when it comes to console releases. Overall, Prey’s technical performance is pretty sound from a resolution and framerate perspective, despite some controller lag on the PS4 version and a weird audio quirk. As far as the gameplay

After invitations to Bungie’s Destiny 2 reveal event began popping up online, the mega-developer has stepped forward to talk about the event a little bit on their blog. The biggest detail to glean from the post is that the mystery console that will be used to show off Destiny 2 is the PS4. This is hardly surprising given the support that PlayStation has gotten from both Bungie and publisher Activision over this console generation. The Destiny 2 gameplay reveal event will take place on Thursday,

Destiny 2 is gearing up to dominate the headlines in the next few weeks, and while all of the focus will be on the gameplay, dedicated fans will be able to get their hands on a 216-page art book later this year. Titled, The Art of Destiny 2, the book is described as the “definitive collection for the game’s stunning art and design.” A pre-order page for the book is now open on Amazon.com, though the release date listed appears to be either a placeholder or type. Destiny 2 releases on PC, PS4, an

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 released earlier this week on Tuesday, and its critical reception has been mixed, to say the least, with scores ranging from 80 to 30. Marek Tymiński, the CEO of Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3’s developer, CI Games, issued a statement regarding the game’s issues and what the studio plans to do about it. Before we release any more content for the game, we have dedicated staff working diligently to further optimize Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 to ensure fewer issues with framerate and l

Video game censorship is very much a thing, and every country seems to have their own way of going about it. Some are fixated on covering boobs and butts while others have issues with blood and guts. The original Half-life is one of the most infamous examples of blood and guts censorship, with human enemies being replaced by robots, blood-less enemy deaths, springs spewing from Barnacles, and friendly NPCs that sit down and shake their head when you shoot them (before they disappear). Valve is n

Mario Kart 8 ReviewRemaster? Additionally, the framerate stays consistently at 60, whether you play solo, or playing split-screen, another new feature the original game didn’t have. We can now play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe anywhere, at any time. If there was one mode that was sorely lacking in Mario Kart 8, it was most certainly Battle Mode, or at least, a true Battle Mode. If you have yet to experience the fantastic kart racer, then you should without a doubt be getting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

Bethesda stated they were working on “two other games” before Elder Scrolls 6 (likely the two ‘under construction IPs in the image). DOOM released in 2016 and has yet to receive an expansion (something we will likely see at E3 2017).

The NES Classic is officially dead, even if some stores are still getting their last shipments, it’s dead. Before the NES Classic went out of production, retailers were constantly sold out of the device. The president and chief operating officer of Nintendo of America, Reggis Fils-Aime, has detailed that the NES Classic managed to sell 2.3 million units. (/end rant)Fils-Aime went on to detail that the 2.3 million people that grabbed the NES Classic were the very same people that managed to get N

Call of Duty: WWII on the other hand, appears to be focusing on a story with characters you really care about and realism. Senior Creative Director Bret Robbins spoke with Glixel about some of the more story driven games that inspired him. The big moments fall flat if you don’t care about the guys you’re with. This doesn’t mean there won’t be intense action or those big moments we’ve come to expect. Call of Duty: WWII will release on November 3rd, 2017 for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.

Her web series, Tropes vs. Women in Video Games, has been a driving force in gender and race representation in gaming over the last several years, but it is coming to an end according to Sarkeesian herself in a blog post on the Feminist Frequency website. It’s definitely time for it to be over, time for Feminist Frequency as an organization and for me personally to move on. But I keep thinking about all the ways that the world of video games has changed since that day, almost five years ago, whe

It’s not like there was much doubt, but Nintendo has officially announced that they will not be hosting a “large scale” press conference this year at E3 2017. The news came from the company’s latest financial results briefing, They did not reveal what exactly their plans were, only saying they would do so at “a later date.” With the Nintendo Switch surging in sales, it would seem prudent for Nintendo to keep pushing the new console, and with the unannounced games still on the horizon, E3 would b

Invitations were sent out to a number of gamers, YouTube personalities, and media types alike pointing to May 18th as the date for Destiny 2’s gameplay reveal. Expect a ton of YouTubers to capture oodles of gameplay from the event, but it’s currently unknown when/if there is an embargo date on that coverage. Destiny 2 is expected to be sold through Steam, despite previous fears that

As time goes along, the wait for what comes next just gets shorter and shorter. It seems like just yesterday that Sony released their PS4 Pro console, serving as a mid-generation upgrade on an already stellar console. One analyst is predicting that it won’t stay as Sony’s top console very long. According to the Wall Street Journal, Macquarie Capital Securities analyst Damian Thong predicts that Sony will release “its next-generation PlayStation by the second half of 2018.” Source: [Wall Street J

Little Nightmares is a “child must traverse horrifying and dangerous predicaments” simulator like the mentioned titles. In Little Nightmares, you play as a small girl named Six. The best part of Little Nightmares is the creativity. Overall, Little Nightmares was an entertaining experience. But if initial screenshots piqued your interest, Little Nightmares is all about presentation and definitely doesn’t disappoint in that department.

‘Poochy and Yoshi’s Woolly World’ boasts a masterful blend of customizability and engaging gameplay able to keep players of all ages entertained throughout. One of the first things you’re asked when you start your adventure is to design your very own Yarn Yoshi. You might be asking yourself, “What exactly is a ‘Woolly World’?” The answer is both complex and insanely simple. In fact, the “woolly” of ‘Woolly World’ plays a pretty big role in the gameplay. In order to maintain a sense of varying ga

In 2013, a little game by the name of Outlast hit the PC and redefined survival horror. “Outlast 2 is a terrifying sequel that builds upon the scares of the 2013 original. Stretched over twice the length of the original game, Outlast 2’s gameplay starts to wear thin, especially since too many of its scripted chases funnel you down preset paths. At the same time, however, I admire its purity, and to an extent, I’m willing to accept its shortcomings for the sake of true survival horror. Horror gam
