Game Previews

Before Aven Colony, I can't say that I had ever played a city builder game in which poison balls spewed from the mouths of aliens could destroy my city structures. But sure enough, the pesky...

While we were at E3 2017, we had to pleasure of playing a few matches of Dead Alliance! Although it is influenced by other zombie shooters, Dead Alliance integrates very unique and interesting mechanics that...

I consider myself a pretty big fan of horror games. Resident Evil and Dead Space are two series very near and dear to my heart but I've of course been burned over the years as Dead Space 3...

You’ve crash landed on an unfamiliar planet. Your cramped escape pod assures your safety and provides limited shelter from the environment, but it’s up to you to collect the resources needed to rebuild your ship...

I'm going to level with you. I didn't really play a lot of the original Splatoon on the Wii U. I played a little bit of it and it was a solid title. I just didn't...

Most co-op games aren't co-op games. Yeah, technically all noncompetitive multiplayer games are generally considered "co-op," but how often are they games that genuinely demand cooperation? With it's asymmetrical gameplay, HACKTAG is one of those few...

Sundered is a procedurally generated, 2D metroidvania with a focus on fast-paced combat, enormous bosses, and gorgeous, hand-drawn animation. While Thunder Lotus Games' first title, Jotun, borrowed themes from Nordic Mythology, Sundered instead draws inspiration...

Video games are a young medium. As such, there are many serious topics out there that have yet to be tackled. However, games occasionally come along that push boundaries, tackle new subject matters and help...

If you took Animal Crossing, mixed it with Harvest Moon and added a pinch of toon Link from the Legend of Zelda, you'd get Prideful Sloth Games' upcoming title, Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles. This...

Like it or not, violence is a big part of most games. But to be fair, it's a big part of all entertainment mediums . Whether you're shooting dudes, slashing monsters, or straight up poisoning...

I confess, one nice thing about previews is the freedom to present a glimpse of a game however it seems most befitting. As I crawled into Hellion, previewing the sci-fi survival title by Zero Gravity...

Usually, I'm the guy who takes things too seriously. No, it does not mean I crawl around on forums correcting inaccuracies across the land, or even that I'll scream how unrealistic films/games are bad. It...

“It looked like there was something missing, but I hadn’t figured out what.” The Little Acre is an adorable point-and-click adventure puzzle game set between our world, and a fantasy world discovered accidentally by an...

You can choose to watch a 50 minute video of me playing it if you want to see the game in action. Although the sound is a bit quiet. On the other hand, below lies...

Every so often, I stumble upon the type of game that would never sell in an elevator pitch. The classic being Papers, Please. Hell, imagine EA or Activision green-lighting Spec Ops: The Line, Verdun or...

Let me take you behind the curtain to the man that lies beyond. Sometimes we want to high-five a game, give it some delicious thick journalism, but we simply don't know how to present it....

Asymmetry. It's in your drugs, it's in your art and now it has invaded your multiplayer. Although, to be fair to the poor little thing who can't get a break in architecture, it invades because...

While this is a written preview, you can also watch a whopping 50 minute preview of character creator, RPG and combat here. A couple of months back, you may recall I interviewed Logic Artists about...

Now we're done celebrating those who can squeeze their budget like a parent refinding their lost child, it's onwards to those unrestrained by petty things like money. I got to try a fair collection of...

At this year's Fan Expo Canada, which takes place every year in Toronto, Ubisoft had a very strong presence. There were kiosks set up to play upcoming games from them such as Steep and For Honor. But...

Dontnod are definitely making Vampyr into a must-play game by the sounds of things. Today they released new screenshots that showcase protagonist Jonathan Reid's potential for violence. Take a look at them below, as well as some...
