Ever since its release on the PlayStation Network and Steam almost two years ago, Rocket League has been a critical and commercial darling among video games. Over the past year and a half, Rocket League has evolved past its initial premise by adding new modes such as Hoops, Snow Day and Rumble whilst providing awesome cosmetic additions; their recent Hot Wheels DLC being their most successful add-on ever. With more and more players jumping onto the game, Psyonix isn’t nearly ready to move onto a

That said, much like the original game, Shards of Darkness is both incredibly focused yet limited in the scope of what it does well. As always, here’s a breakdown of what you need to know about Styx: Shards of Darkness. But in some cases with Styx: Shards of Darkness, I just ended up wishing that Stealth was all this game was about. Suffice it to say; if you can overlook its flaws, there’s a lot of fun to be had with Styx: Shards of Darkness. Ultimately, Styx: Shards of Darkness should please fa

As usual, let’s take a look at what you need to know about The Crow’s Eye. The Crow’s Eye has a very intriguing premise, but it’s a bit bogged down by hit or miss execution. The Crow’s Eye feels like it has a bit of an identity crisis. For the most part, it works just fine; it’s just not something you would have expected The Crow’s Eye to throw at you. The Crow’s Eye comes with a very basic crafting system that you’ll mostly use to make First Aid items.

Star Ocean 5: Integrity and Faithlessness ReviewPlatform: PS4 (Reviewed), PS3 Developer: tri-Ace Publisher: Square Enix Disclosure: Review copy provided by publisher. The Case: Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness is like discovering a Leonardo da Vinci sketch that a child has colored over with crayons, beneath globs of brightly colored wax is something of value, but it’s not immediately apparent at first glance. There’s a lot of metaphorical wax here, so let’s get started. The Panty Panic Po

No Man’s Sky’s Path Finder update was the largest content addition the game had seen to date, particularly with the addition of land vehicles. Naturally, when a new content update is released, bugs always tend to crop up and update 1.24 serves to rectify some them. As usual, Hello Games dropped the Patch Notes on their official website, and here they are. No Man’s Sky is currently available on PS4, Steam, and GOG.com. Source: [Hello Games]

Microsoft’s Project Scorpio, their new upcoming console is set to release holiday 2017. But now, Phil Spencer of Xbox defines their focus on first-party games for Scorpio. “Having our [first-party] games ready for Scorpio is critical,” He said on Twitter. Spencer also noted how he’s “Very focused” on first-party games, and how, “I’ll be careful about when we announce things but I know strong 1P is critical.” The pre-order page for Project Scorpio is live, but for now is just a placeholder with a

Yesterday saw the release of Mass Effect: Andromeda on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, and with it, the release of patch 1.04. Unfortunately, the patch didn’t come with in-depth details just a description that it contained “various improvements and bug fixes.” The facial animations have been hit with so much criticism, that it even lead to an EA employee getting harassed for detailing that they were the lead facial animator for Andromeda.

Touchdown: Armor League is an all-new game that takes aspects of American Football, and mashes it together with traditional arena shooter genre mechanics in 6v6 matches to make something that is unlike anything we’ve seen to date. Rocket League is one of this generation’s most influential games, and it’s only natural that Action Sports games would begin to take off. Enter Touchdown: Armor League, who launched their Kickstarter campaign earlier today with a goal of $50,000. Ares Games’ Producer a

Mass Effect: Andromeda’s got some problems, not just in the gameplay department (which should be priority #1), but the facial animations have undergone the more intensive scrutiny which in many cases has reached outrageous proportions. Jonathan Cooper is a former animator on the Mass Effect series now working at Naughty Dog and took the time to break down some of the differences in processes between how something like Uncharted and a big game like Mass Effect come together. Then, Cooper gave a b

Leave it to Alan Tudyk to improv so well that a director keeps it in the movie. Even more impressive, he improvised while wearing a mo-cap suit and they build the special effects around it to fit. Reported by ComicBook.com, the scene in question has Kaytoo (The repurposed Imperial droid) pretending to escort Cassian and Jyn off of Jedha. When the stormtrooper questions Kaytoo, he smacks Cassian to sell the scene to the trooper. Cassian is a bit of a jerk up to this point in the movie, so the sma

To access all the other parts of “No Compromise” players will still need to purchase the Season Pass, the new story missions and such will not be accessible for free. Ubisoft will be giving those who purchased the Season Pass new outfits and missions that they hadn’t planned to include in the Season Pass. According to Watch Dogs 2’s live producer, Kris Young, there were two reasons for Ubisoft making the multiplayer section of the DLC free. The other reason was that they listened to community fe

Oculus Rift was the first real contender in this VR competition we’ve got today. The headset itself isn’t on sale, considering it got a price drop earlier in the year, but a bunch of Oculus games are up to 80% off at the Oculus Store. Now until April 4, many big-name VR games are on sale such as EVE: Valkyrie, Elite Dangerous and Project Cars. This bundle includes EVE: Valkyrie, Project Cars, RPG Chronos, Radial G: Racing and Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes. The Oculus Rift is sitting on the Mi

DICE has been looking at ways of improving the multiplayer experience in Battlefield 1, and now it seems like they have found a way with their new “Premium Friends” system. Access to DLC maps will remain as long as the party remains “premium enabled”, or in layman’s terms, when the Premium Pass owner leaves the rest of the party won’t be able to play premium maps anymore. Only Premium Pass or DLC owners will be able to spawn with weapons or vehicles unique for the expansion. Only Premium Pass or

Reilly and Sarah Silverman will all be returning for the movie. Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2 opens in theatres on March 9, 2018. pic.twitter.com/u1qQn7TUUI — Di

We have been patiently awaiting the trailer for the reboot of Stephen King’s ‘It’ for a while now and it has finally arrived. The trailer didn’t skip the ominous part at all, it brought the spook, the clown, the missing children, the scared children, oh and the balloon. Yep, it has all the goods and it’s even got a creepy kid in it. In April 2016 it was revealed that Stephen King’s 1986 horror novel ‘It’ would be getting another film adaptation in 2017. The new version, directed by Andy Musciett

These vehicles could only be bought after a heist was completed. But in the latest update, a “buy it now” option has appeared. This makes having to get a group together to do a heist your not particularly interested in just to get a car you want. But completing heists and unlocking these vehicles does still come with a benefit. The cost of those vehicles (in-game currency of course) is significantly cheaper after the heist is completed, making completing heists still worth it.

Oh… Well, you’re getting it anyway because Method Man’s voice is now an optional voice pack for the game. So why Method Man? There’s also a new UK Special Forces voice pack featuring Craig Fairbrass as Ghost from Modern Warfare 2. The Ghost Voice pack is free, but you can only be graced by Method Man’s presence for $3.99. Maybe Method Man isn’t our thing, but it’s cool that he made an appearance as a voice over for Call of Duty.

Star Wars Episode VIII will, in fact, be titled The Last Jedi. The most striking thing about this image is the fact that the Star Wars logo is red rather than the traditional yellow. However, that refers to a character known as Jax Pavan and is set between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. The book is also a part of the non-canon legends line, and the character of Jax Pavan has seemingly been mirrored in Star Wars Rogue’s Kanan Jarrus. The Last Jedi will be in theaters on December 15th, 2017,
