I remember reading previews for the original Borderlands. I remember the change in art style that some claimed saved the game. That was over a decade ago. Borderlands 2 was released seven years ago. Borderland: The Pre-sequel was released five years ago. So how to get people excited for a new Borderlands game? Give them …

I just finished Red Dead Redemption II (RDR2) on PS4. It’s another huge game where I have to clarify what the means. I’ve finished the main story and both epilogues. I don’t think the fact that there are two epilogues is much of a spoiler, but I’ll try to avoid spoiling anything story related. The …

I just finished playing Final Fantasy XV. By finished, I mean that I’m done. I completed the main story a little while back and have been exploring the post game quests and dungeons. I finished the legendary weapons quest line, but I only made it through three of the bonus ‘menace’ dungeons. I’ll get into …

The space genre was dead for many years. Now, all of a sudden we’ve got Elite: Dangerous, and No Man’s Sky and, perhaps, Star Citizen. That might be a weak line up for shooters, but it’s a renaissance for the space sim. In to this comes Rebel Galaxy. It’s sort of a cross between …

Mad Max is an open world action adventure game set in the wasteland world Max inhabits in the movies. Though it has some locations and links to Fury Road, the story is not from any of the movies. It’s another odyssey on Max’s journey to find peace. Of course, it’s bleak, violent, cruel and post …

I briefly touched on the fact that Shadow is a fun, compelling game. There are bugs and flaws, but he total experience rises so far above them that they seem inconsequential. The game realizes its goal of making you feel part of an epic adventure and tied in to the saga of the rings. So …

In short, I can’t stop playing. Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is a fun, compelling game. It thrusts you behind enemy lines with a wicked skill set that just keeps growing. You constantly get more deadly. While few of the parts are shiny and new, they’re put together masterfully. I grabbed the PC version because …

UPDATE: Microsoft has reversed itself again. Tables will now import, but launch has been delayed to implement this. Another win for gamers, but another unnecessary PR body blow for Microsoft. The original post follows: Microsoft came off a pretty good E3. Many were wondering if they’ve turned the corner. I may be wrong, but this …

It’s hard to believe that we’re already through another E3. That might make more sense for me since I’m also finding it hard to believe that my little baby is about to start walking. It’s amazing how much time flies when you’re always busy. I have gotten a bit more gaming time in. I’ve been …
