Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville just launched officially on October 18, but it had five weeks before that for Founding Neighbors to get some early access time with the game as PopCap added features and tuned characters and modes. As a huge fan of the previous third-person shooter outings...
Infinity Ward made a lot of bold claims this year in the run up to Modern Warfare’s release. It’s a reboot of a classic favorite franchise, so it should feel fresh but nostalgic all the same. It’s darker and grittier than ever before, but also won’t be gratuitous. It utilizes...
Imagine if your best friends lived on the pages of a sketchbook or the walls of an abandoned coastal town. Imagine drawing your brush across a surface, and not just bringing the image into existence, but actually bringing it to life. Imagine being able to quite literally push back darkness...
It’s hard for me to say too much about Sayonara Wild Hearts, because the experience I had going in was one of pure discovery, and I want that same eager foray into this neon world for everyone. If you’re even mildly curious, I recommend simply getting it now. Your curiosity...
There’s a particular appeal to the Wolfenstein series, a brazen “one man versus the fascist world” hero fantasy as BJ Blazkowicz takes on Nazis in a brutal and visceral fashion. Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot adds mechs to the mix, allowing you to take control of the Nazi death machines, and then puts...
Layers of Fear was a surprise from Bloober Team, a developer with quite the history. Needless to say, nobody expected them come out with a first-person psychological horror title after their psuedo-horror Bomberman clone (and all of the drama surrounding that development).

When Days Gone was first revealed, it caused some divided reactions. Unlike most other PlayStation exclusives, there was some trepidation about revisiting yet another post-apocalyptic zombie outbreak open-world game. So it has a motorcycle and its zombies definitely aren’t your usual zombie fare, but can it stand shoulder to shoulder...
As someone who wouldn’t know how to exist without the animals in my life, I’m quite particular to games that have a central focus on the player’s connection with an animal companion. There’s just something special about the bond between a human and our furry—or in this case, feathered—friends. When...
Our Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 review has been a long time coming (struggling through Sekiro may have had some impact in that), but with a game this absolutely massive and filled with things to do, there’s a lot to take in and analyze. One of the original concepts for...
I don’t think there’s a game in the history of games that has subsequently made me curse more or felt more rewarding than Sekiro. As a FromSoftware title, I expected it to be difficult. I would have been disappointed if it wasn’t. That didn’t stop me from shouting obscenities as...
Video games have always been a tool to allow us to become something beyond the realm of possibility. We can become a gallant knight, part of a seedy shadow organization, or a superhero. Virtual reality took that one step further by allowing us to step into those shoes, to truly...
Melding beauty with challenge our The Kings Bird review examines a games that tried to infuse synesthesia with precision platforming and serene gameplay, but can a bird soar on clipped wings?
