Much has been said about the power, and necessary – state of the art – cooling units being utilized in the next generation consoles. Both Machines – The Xbox Series X and the PlayStation 5 – are bigger in size than anything we have seen since the OG Xbox, and it seemed that both ran…
Ever since the PlayStation 3/Xbox 360 era, each subsequent generational jump has felt smaller, and smaller by comparison. There has never been a more impressive console jump between hardware generations than the one performed by the Nintendo 64 over the Sega Genesis, and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. I could, in fact say, that even…
In a stark contrast to Microsoft’s open approach towards its Xbox Series X/S console – the American company has allowed plenty of Western media, and some “Influencers” a hands on trial with its console – Sony has kept the PlayStation 5 under wraps. This has changed a bit over the last few days, as the…
Nintendo is known for stellar first party games, and some of the most beloved video game franchises in history. The company is also known for its secretive nature when it comes to unveiling new titles. In this day and age of social media and internet news outlets, we have gotten used to following our favorite…

On Monday, the renowned Polish developer (The…
Everyone who regularly reads the site can attest to the fact that I am not a big fan of the Final Fantasy series post the departure of its creator Hironobu Sakaguchi. I am not alone in that line of thinking either. In fact, apart from Final Fantasy XII ( the game absolutely felt nothing like…
Metro 2033, and Metro: Last Light are in my opinion, the greatest first person shooting single player experiences ever made. Based on the Russian novels by Dmitry Glukhovsky, the games perfectly captured the essence of the books. The novels were highly atmospheric. Reading through Metro 2033, I could imagine the chilly temperatures of Russia’s vast,…
Microsoft’s acquisition of Bethesda/ZeniMax can be seen as a direct answer to Sony’s first party strength. It should also be seen as an investment on their Xbox Game Pass platform, which is considered by the company as its future, and more importantly, the future of the industry. With Microsoft wanting to put Game Pass…
In the middle of the epic pre-order battle between Sony’s PS5 and Microsoft’s Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo news and announcements have been almost non existent. To top it off, this week Microsoft announced its “Megaton” buyout of ZeniMax Bethesda, and social media warriors continue to battle on discussions about the implications that such a historic…
