Don’t just tell us which game you’d like to see return, tell us how you’d handle its resurrection. Let’s slip on some rose-tinted glasses and look fondly back at the awful past.

Tips and tricks for playing Watch Dogs: Legion

By Darryn Bonthuys

Watch Dogs Legion is out today, and while the game isn’t perfect, it’s still a fascinating tour of London that’s helping bridge the gap between current and next-gen consoles. If you’re planning on picking it up and making a difference in the world’s capital, then class is in session! As someone who has played the game, recruited several pensioners and recreated scenes of terrible old women assaulting fit and defenseless young men, I’m something of an expert in Ubisoft’s latest sandbox.

Watch Dogs: Legion Review – My name is URL

Watch Dogs: Legion is a fascinating game, massively ambitious and crawling with technology that isn’t just on the bleeding edge of what’s possible, it’s pure magic to see unfold. All of that may sound impressive but slick software and a bustling metropolis of people power can’t hide the dull gameplay and shallow approach to the sandbox shenanigans of Watch Dogs: Legion. It’s still a fascinating game to experience in short bursts, and it’s going to be fascinating to see how Ubisoft evolves London to make it vox pop as a next-gen headliner.

G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout Review – Average Joe

By Darryn Bonthuys

1

There’s a decent game at the very core of G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout , but it’s buried underneath annoying controls, a bizarre focus on co-op play instead of multiplayer, and missions that feel like an endlessly repetitive grind. Still, it’s dedicated to its source material and it has its moments, but it doesn’t do much else to stand out from the pack. And now you know, because knowing is half the battle.

Five big changes (and an adorable one!) that Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is making to its sandbox

Another year, another Assassin’s Creed…right? Not exactly. Ubisoft’s premier sandbox for ancient mysteries, bridging the generations and just plain fun action has had a more staggered release over the last few years, and the current saga is coming to an end on current-gen machines while also making a debut on next-gen consoles.

Coumi ANC-860 Wireless Earbuds Review – Structurally sound

You get what you pay for, and with the Coumi ANC-860 that’s mostly true. Decent sound and acceptable noise-cancelling features makes for a solid budget headphones kit. A surprising amount of comfort, strong battery life, and a wealth of touch controls is an unexpected bonus from a brand that’s going to be getting a lot of attention soon if it keeps making quality budget hardware.

For over two decades, Sony has ruled gaming store shelves with the PlayStation consoles. Mighty machines, shipped in sturdy boxes. Some of them have been awful, others brilliant. This is the defintitive ranking, that history will remember.

Airplane Mode Review – Fright Simulator

By Darryn Bonthuys
October 20, 2020

Airplane Mode is everything you’d expect from a well-crafted flight simulator where you’re not in control: Boring, hopeless, and a dangerous invitation into the depths of your own unhinged psyche brought on by a high altitude prison that you paid to be incarcerated in. It’s almost the end of the year, and I think I’ve just found the winner of the best horror game of 2020.

Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit Review – Mushvroom Kingdom

Like most Nintendo ideas, Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit has a certain magic to it, charm and some caveats thrown at you. It’s mad stuff that somehow works, and performs even better if you’re rich enough to own a spare living room to set up a lab dedicated to racing game experiments. Hindered or enhanced by your imagination, Nintendo’s latest mad project is still a well-designed and madly charming new entry in its beloved karting franchise.

Genshin Impact may be one of the biggest surprises of the year: A free-to-play RPG that gives players an absurd amount of freedom and content to dip into.

Neighbors back from Hell doesn’t do anything to change its original formula, but the added spit ‘n shine polish does give the fantastic pranking sandbox a new lease on life.
