The Far Cry series is pretty good, it’s not my favourite Ubisoft IP but I’ve had a lot of fun with its games especiallyFar Cry 4. While I haven’t played the last two games I have looked in them and seen they weren’t everyone’s cup of tea, as the series very rarely divulges from its tried and true formula. Far Cry 6was the worst offender of this, though it’s DLC expansions were solid...
The passage of time is a funny thing. It can feel like it’s gone within a blink of an eye or drawn out like paper thin skin over jagged rocks. The latter is how it felt waiting forDragon Age: The Veilguardto be released. A decade is a long time to endure when you’re desperate to know what became of a companion you once called a friend, a lover. Even when I finally had a copy ofBioWare’s new title, I was hesitant – what if it failed to move me like the previous games had?...
I’ve played a lot of 100-hour-long RPGs in my time, many of which I consider to be some of the greatest games ever made. I’d even place a few of them in my own personal top 10, such asDragon Age: Origins,Fallout: New Vegas,Baldur’s Gate 3, and, yes,Persona 5. There’s an odd, bittersweet feeling that comes with ending a journey you’ve lived in for weeks. Much like a great book, turning that final page on a long adventure feels well-earned, yet sombre....
In my restless dreams, I see that town. Mary’s opening words reverberate through my mind as I break through the suffocating fog into the town of Silent Hill. The town is washed out, like a dream within a dream, and the silence is deafening as I walk through the derelict streets, its abandoned stores towering on either side like sentries. My mission is to reunite James with his recently departed wife who claims that she is waiting for us “in our special place” but leaves no other clue....
It’s Game Of The Year time, and while the nominees are already decided I still believe Sonic X Shadow Generations is my 2024 GOTY, and here’s why.As a lifelong Sonic fan who started his journey into the franchise around the Nintendo GameCube era, the 3D games have a special place in my heart. When I got my GameCube I was given three Sonic games to go with it,Sonic Gems Collection,Sonic HeroesandSonic Adventure 2: Battle, my favourite out of them all....
GTA VIis the most-anticipated game of 2025, so much so that it won a Game Award for it earlier this month.

A recentGTA Onlinetrailer featured a small easter egg detail forGTA 6fans I get it, we all want information about the blockbuster game. But the fans are straight up roasting anythingRockstar Gamesare putting out. Advert Advert Though, don’t get it twisted, this still makes me giggle. “GTA6looking weird here,”says one Twitter user. “Hi Rockstar, we are waiting forGTA 6trailer 2, please,”says another. There will be no peace for the developer until the second trailer drops, and then it’s a long time until the third, and we do it all over again....
The second trailer forGrand Theft Auto VIhas already broken a record, although I wouldn’t exactly say this is the type of achievement thatRockstar Gameswill be too thrilled about.November 16 2024 marked a momentous day inGrand Theft Autohistory, a day that some in the community feared coming to pass.That’s because, as of Monday, it’s officially been over 378 days since we received the first trailer forGrand Theft Auto VI.AdvertSo why is that significant?...
Harry Potter fans are delighted with a brand new Wizarding World series that we might have missed.

Check out the Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking trailer below! However, out of all the Harry Potter goodness that’s available to us today, I don’t think many of us would expect to see aTV seriesbased on a cooking contest and one that looks to be quite good....
This year, I’ve had the privilege of playing some exceptional video games. From baking magical culinary delights to facing down blighted dragons to fighting for my life as I attempt to stealth. I’ve been busy. Yet, my biggest fear is that one of the best titles I’ve played in 2024 will be forgotten come The Game Awards 2025.Indiana Jones and the Great Circlehas received no end of praise since its release; I myself remarked on it delivering“whip cracking thrills”....

With the end of the year rapidly approaching, you’ve likely found yourself looking ahead to what the next 12 months may bring us. That’s in all aspects of life, but I should hope that if you’re here, it includes video games.
