Logan, Michael, and their good friend Mario Rivera are on Drop In/Drop Out this week to talk about early thoughts on The Division 2, Halo: The Master Chief Collection coming to PC, and for some reason, My Chemical Romance. Full breakdown of Episode 16: The Division 2!! Left 4 Dead Successor Back 4 Blood Announced Borderlands
Main
I’ve been sold on Devil May Cry 5 from the moment I saw it revealed last year at E3 2018. Everything about the game seemed right in my wheelhouse from the getgo and it immediately became one of my most anticipated releases of 2019. The only problem was that I had still never played a single Devil
It’s hard to believe we’re basically eight years out from the 3DS’ western launch. I still remember getting it around launch day in middle school at GameStop alongside Pilotwings Resort and LEGO Star Wars III (the system didn’t have the best lineup of launch titles). Since then, the 3DS has quickly elevated itself to be
When Rune Factory 4 Special and Rune Factory 5 were announced on Switch by Marvelous and Nintendo on the latest Nintendo Direct, many people around the world were ecstatic, myself included. All of us had lost hope that a new Rune Factory would ever be released, and for good reason. Why do we love the series
We’ve quietly been grinding away the past few months building up a new community over on Mixer. Slowly but surely, we’ve now reached a point where we have over 6,000 followers and are streaming video games multiple nights per week. As a result, today we’re proud to announce that we’re now partners on Mixer which
One Piece: World Seeker has so many solid ideas on paper that, if executed properly, should’ve made it one of the best-licensed anime games on the market right now. However, as you might’ve guessed, the game presents these ideas well enough but never fully executes them properly to make for an enjoyable, and more importantly, fun
At E3 2018, I had the pleasure of previewing Anthem, BioWare’s first foray into the loot shooter genre. Coming out of that small room, I was stoked. I really enjoyed the vertical slice they presented as it showcased its fantastic gameplay, a facet BioWare isn’t really known for excelling in. Even with the lack of
Daemon X Machina has a visual flair that’s astoundingly unique on the Nintendo Switch. A mech-based third-person shooter that has gameplay elements of Monster Hunter, Armored Core, Freedom Wars, and a dystopian-inspired storyline that culminates into something that feels wildly unique amongst the Nintendo Switch’s lineup of games. Needless to say, I’ve been shipping this game since its
Mystery is the heart of The Occupation, from both its larger goal of presenting a moral quandary for the player to navigate and discover, to the smaller portions of how to get past a locked door and discover more clues for various leads. Taking place in the late 1980s in a not too dissimilar version
Left Alive is a culmination of unoriginal ideas that never click together to create a cohesive gaming experience in 2019. Ultimately, it isn’t fun, and it’s certainly not good. On the surface, Left Alive appears to have some potential but upon hopping into the game’s first chapter, all hope seemingly washes away in an instant when you have
Devil May Cry has returned and the fantastic early review scores lead Logan and Michael to talk about the Japanese gaming scene as a whole which has been on fire the past few years. The duo also ends up talking about what happens when video games as a hobby begin to grow a bit stale. Here’s
Say what you want, but I love EA’s press conferences that kick off the E3 festivities every year. Is it typically boring? Yes. Is it awkward? Almost always. And is there ever any real substantial news to be revealed about upcoming games? Not really. Objectively, most of the conferences that EA has held over the
Switchblade is a crazy beast. Relatively novice studio Lucid Games is attempting to take on the MOBA market at large, which is filled with some of the heaviest hitters in the industry. Even better, they are driving that momentum with a unique take–instead of a top-down League of Legends format, we see vehicle action more akin to Twisted Metal or Rocket League.
Coming from the studio that brought us the Dark Souls series and Bloodborne, I can already tell you that yes, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is hard. And that you’ll probably die a lot. I mean, the title of the game is called “Shadows DIE Twice.” Think about it. …in any event, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice–the highly-anticipated next project coming
After more than ten years since we last saw Dante and Nero kicking demon ass and taking names, the very long-awaited Devil May Cry 5 is finally about to release on consoles and PC later this year. In case you couldn’t tell from our review that went up today, don’t worry: Devil May Cry 5 has very much
Coming eleven years since the last mainline installment in the series released, it’s not hard to overstate that a new, “proper” Devil May Cry game has been a long time coming. And before we get too thick into the rest of this review, let me just clear the air by saying that as much as it’s
With FromSoftware having closed the book on Dark Souls–a series that has essentially crafted an entire genre of its own–naturally that might have led many fans to speculate on what exactly would come next from the studio. Given how the Souls series and Bloodborne have come to define FromSoftware in the past decade, it’s inevitable that comparisons will be
I love Destiny. I was a player and fan from the get-go during the PlayStation exclusive Alpha all the way up to the launch for Forsaken last year. Destiny is arguably one of this generation’s definitive series, whether you like it or not. It’s fusion of buttery smooth FPS gunplay, MMO-lite design, sholootin’ and a
Every now and then there comes a game that just completely catches you off guard. Each year I’ll typically pick up a game that looks visually appealing to me and just say “Eh, why not.” Surprisingly, this time around it just so happens to be a real-time strategy game, a genre I admittedly don’t have much experience
French developer Asobo Studio and publisher Focus Home Interactive have certainly crafted something interesting and unique with A Plague Tale: Innocence. In this action-adventure, you follow the tragic journey of Amicia and Hugo De Rune through the plagued-filled and formidable landscapes of 14th century France. Having seen the trailers, which captured my attention so much
After revealing SteamWorld Dig 2 at the start of Nintendo’s first ever Nindies Presentation just a week before the system launched, Nintendo Senior Manager for Publisher & Developer Relations Damon Baker said that Nintendo was aiming to “secure a constant flow of innovative content that shows the fun of playing games” and pledged to “prioritize
Despite my luke-warm review of Far Cry New Dawn, there is a lot to truly appreciate the game and developer Ubisoft’s direction. Looking beyond the brand new RPG lite mechanics pushed into the game, there was another major change to the Far Cry formula–the creation of a storyline sequel. And while the open-ended “true ending” of Far Cry 5 would
There’s been a lot of hubbub about Anthem since it was originally revealed back at E3 2017. As a drastic departure from BioWare’s previous games, many seemed hesitant to see the beloved developer join the ranks of Destiny, The Division, and Warframe with its own take on the loot shooter sub-genre. Despite the concerns though, I was always very much
Logan, Mike, and DualShockers’ own Max Roberts played a whole lot of Anthem this past week and discuss their thoughts on BioWare’s latest. They also talk about a potential next-gen announcement from Microsoft at E3 2019. Oh, and Bowser runs Nintendo now. Here’s everything we discuss in Episode 14: Anthem is not very good ToeJam
The Dead or Alive series has always been able to carve out its own unique niche in the fighting game space. I’m not normally into 3D fighters, and I prefer 2D, but I was drawn in by Dead or Alive 4’s fun mechanics and have stuck within the mainline series since. That being said, I
Reboots, remakes, and remasters. The three R’s that have, in some ways, defined this generation. Just within the past three years, we’ve seen Ratchet & Clank reimagined, Crash Bandicoot revisited, and the unfortunate return of Bubsy. There have been some decent video game comebacks but a good portion of them are fueled by nostalgia, sacrificing
After nearly a year of anticipation, The Pokemon Company, Game Freak, and Nintendo finally lifted the veil this morning on Generation 8 of the Pokemon franchise. Pokemon Sword and Shield, the latest entries in the series set to release later this year on Switch, will take players to the Galar region, a locale that seems to be
When I first heard about Shadow–the cloud-based gaming service–I was excited. When I loaded it up for the first time in Starbucks on Jamaica Ave–I was impressed. When I loaded up the Shadow Ghost–I was disappointed. Shadow is pretty simple to understand after you’ve explained it to all your friends and family twice. There’s a
Since 1929 the Academy Awards, also known as the Oscars, has been the most prominent awards show for film. Millions tune in every year to see their favorite movies of the past twelve months pitted against each other in order to win what are some of the most valuable awards in the entertainment industry. That
SEGA’s Revolve8: Episodic Dueling has just officially released for worldwide audiences, on February 5. The game takes place in a modernized fairy tale setting with humorous elements that work incredibly well in a deck-based RTS mobile game. This free-to-play title is headed by an absolute dream team of creators, including Koji Igarashi of Castlevania and Bloodstained fame, Masayoshi Kikuchi, producer of the Yakuza series,
