Xbox Head, Phil Spencer, has been known for being a ‘lovable’ guy, a gamer first, and the man who wants games to be available on all platforms for all of the world to enjoy! Yet, in my experience, people do not get into powerful positions within mega corporations by just being ‘good’ and ‘passing the…
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…
So, I finally found a PlayStation 5 at Walmart this week. It wasn’t on shelves, for some reason Walmart refuses to stock up the PlayStation shelves (more on that below), but alas, I finally have it. It took me 1 year and 8 months after the console’s launch to find it on stores. It took…
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.

In a very interesting interview with a popular UK video games magazine (Edge), Phil Spencer opened up about his take on console wars and who Xbox’s real rivals are moving forwards. Xbox Series X is Doing Better Than Xbox One But… Sony continues to lead current generation home console hardware sales, if you count the…
Obsidian’s Avowed was formally announced more than a year ago. It was an important announcement for Role-Playing Game fans everywhere because Obsidian has a very good game development pedigree. Fallout fans have found Obsidian’s The Outer Worlds to be a godsend, and many of these fans swear by Fallout: New Vegas (developed by Obsidian) being…
This week, as we have previously speculated on NER since Bethesda’s buy out, industry insider, Jeff Grubb (VentureBeat), claimed that both Starfield, and The Elder Scrolls 6 will be Xbox ‘exclusive’ titles. The statement comes as Bethesda’s Pete Hines (SVP Marketing and Communications) made some lukewarm statements where he wasn’t specifically shutting out the PlayStation…
Very few games, especially ‘average’ ones, have managed to leave a lasting impression on me nearly two decades after I last played them. The Bard’s Tale, however, managed to do just that.
