The stakes don't get much higher than trying to prevent a race of synthetic beings from wiping out every last trace of intelligent life in the galaxy. That's the task that falls to Commander Shepherd in Bioware's Mass Effect trilogy, which is set a long way into the future after humanity has managed to tentatively establish itself in the hierarchy of the Milky Way's alien races. This beautiful and expansive science fiction epic captured the hearts of gamers, and with the right director on board could capture the hearts of moviegoers as w

E3 2017 is now in the books, and like usual, it was a huge show featuring a wide variety of games. Some of the industry's biggest upcoming games were on display at E3, like God of War , Star Wars Battlefront 2 , Super Mario Odyssey , and more. All things considered, there was a little something for everyone at E3 2017, but even so, there were some games we were hoping to see at the show that didn't appear for one reason or anot

In the days leading up to E3, the news broke that both Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Kingdom Hearts 3 were years away from launch . After learning this, many assumed this meant that neither game would show up at E3. However, Kingdom Hearts 3 actually did get a new trailer, whereas Final Fantasy 7 Remake wasn't even mentioned. There have been rumblings that Final Fantasy 7 Remake has undergone some serious development struggles behind the scenes, but hopefully those fears will be put to rest the next time we see the game in action, whenever that may

I'd rather play a 30-hour RPG 4 times than a 120 hour RPG one time. The Outer Worlds seems to understand that mentality and delivered an experience that can be quite diverse depending on one's character build and choices. It was just barely edged out of being my game of the year and is certainly a must-play for those who have ever remotely enjoyed an RPG at some point in their lives. On that positive note, Parvati is my daughter and if any of you hurt her, you'll be hearing from my lawy

One way Nintendo has been bolstering the Nintendo Switch's library of games is by slowly porting popular Wii U titles to the system and throwing the word "deluxe" at the end. While some Nintendo faithful may be annoyed by this approach, it's worth noting that roughly 12 million people bought a Wii U, meaning that the vast majority of gamers missed out on the Wii U's biggest games, including titles like Super Smash Bros. for Wii

Thanks to its hefty post-launch support and just being a damn good game in general, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of my most played Nintendo Switch games of the year and has managed to make my top 10 once again. Even though it didn't work last time, I will say it again: now just add Geno, Sakurai, and we'll talk about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate making it onto my 2020 GOTY list as w

With all the buzz surrounding Fable 4 online, it is all but assured that Microsoft will have something to announce at E3 in June. Microsoft is expected to have a big showing this year as, saleswise, they lagged far behind Sony in 2017 and this is partly due to their lack of exclusive titles. A big, impressive showing of new games exclusive to Microsoft would make a big impact and such a lineup would have to include Fable

Considering this, some may have expected Nintendo to announce Super Smash Bros. Deluxe or something along those lines at E3. While a port of the Wii U Super Smash Bros. would have been the most likely scenario, though, some fans are keeping their fingers crossed that the Switch gets a completely original version of Nintendo's popular fighting g

Visceral has been working on its Star Wars game for years, and with Uncharted director Amy Hennig at the helm, there has been quite a bit of excitement for the game. Sadly, EA and Visceral have kept their cards close to their chest, and so we know virtually nothing about what Visceral's Star Wars game has in store for gamers. With this year's E3 being dedicated to Star Wars Battlefront 2 , maybe E3 2018 will finally be the time for Visceral's Star Wars game to sh

Tokyo Game Show 2019 is starting right now at Makuhari Messe in Tokyo, going from September 12 to 15. Most publishers revealed their definitive schedules these past few days, outlining the various streams and stage events happen

Originally slated for release this fall, Red Dead Redemption 2 was recently delayed into next year. Even so, the game really isn't all that far off in the grand scheme of things, so one would have imagined that Rockstar would have used E3 to give fans a deeper dive into its gameplay features, story, and characters. On the contrary, Red Dead Redemption 2 wasn't seen during any of the big press conferences, and since it could launch before next year's E3, it may never be seen at the show at

There aren't all that many good movies based on video Adventure games walkthrough, but maybe that's just because the right adaptation hasn't come along yet. Video games are more cinematic and visually impressive now than ever before, and their popularity means that Hollywood is continuing to try and find ways of turning major video game franchises into major movie franchi
