Square Enix, Sega and Nintendo, have all made head lines this week. One would think that we might have travelled back to the 1990s, but sadly, that is not case. Out of the three headlines that we will discuss here, only one is positive, and that’s Sonic Frontiers’ commercial success despite the game’s ho-hum critical…
About 3 weeks ago, Golden Eye returned on modern consoles (namely Xbox One/ Series X/S and Nintendo Switch) courtesy of Rare and Microsoft. The title is a remaster in the purest meaning of the ‘remastered’ word. Golden Eye remains the same game that graced the Nintendo 64, but with enhancements such as a 16:9 widescreen…
At this point, for at least a decade, it has been established that Sony, and its PlayStation brand, are the home of the best exclusive content, and AAA single player games.

If you have read my work on this site, you will know that I like the Fable series, and that its reboot is one of my most anticipated titles on the Xbox Series X. Microsoft, so far, has had nothing to compete against Sony’s Ghost of Tsushima and Horizon series in the open world role…

By 2001, The PlayStation 2 had begun to receive its sophomore software and its catalogue began to fill up with great games. These games included Final Fantasy X and the cultural phenomenon Grand Theft Auto III. This was also the year where the Dreamcast was, for all intents and purposes, declared ‘dead’. Microsoft and Nintendo…
Elden Ring’s success (of selling 12 million units within 2 weeks of its launch) has piqued both Sony’s and Microsoft’s interest in the Japanese developer. This week, Xbox head Phillip Spencer confirmed that the software giant is aggressively pursuing the developer. The buyout negotiations were confirmed by Spencer on a recent interview with Digital…
The original Xbox was an amazing machine for its era. At times, the system truly felt like a generational leap over the PlayStation 2. The reason for this? Microsoft’s hardware was multiple times more powerful than Sony’s most successful machine. The Xbox Flexed its Muscles at Launch Halo: Combat Evolved alone was enough to…
With over 25 million subscribers and 60% of the total revenue of 3.7 billion dollars in the gaming subscription market segment, Microsoft’s Xbox Game Pass service is the leader of the gaming subscription market. Microsoft’s goal has always been for its service to turn into gaming’s Netflix. 60 Percent of the Gaming Subscription Market…
