The 4-year anniversary of the delightful Super Smash Bros. for 3DS just recently flew by last month, and many seemed to overlook it quite like many overlook the game as a whole. It usually seems to be a forgotten entry into the series and left in the dark by its big brother, Super Smash Bros for
Main
From just a few hours with Red Dead Redemption 2, I went from executing a train robbery, to riding on my steed across the vastness of the Western landscape, to infiltrating a rival gang’s camp and brutally taking them out. I went from roaming through the wilderness and taking in its serene beauty, to riding alongside
Horror-centric multiplayer games have been commonplace for awhile now. From older games like Left 4 Dead (which somehow is turning a decade old this year) to more recent entries like Dead by Daylight and Friday the 13th: The Game, the horror space has had some standout entries over the years that pit normal characters against those of monsters or slashers
I talk about this all of the time but high-score chasing games are one of my favorite, rarely seen genres. Games like last year’s Nex Machina and the fantastic Hotline Miami 1 & 2 are games I still return to regularly, always in pursuit of that one perfect run in a given level. So it stands to reason
When Velocity 2X was initially released back in 2014 on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita, it quickly became one of my favorite games on both platforms. Its blend of shoot ’em up, twin-stick, and side-scrolling gameplay made for some of the most fun I’ve ever had in a video game up to that point. In fact, it
Recently, seven relevant developers including Danganronpa and Zero Escape creators Kazutaka Kodaka and Kotaro Uchikoshi formed a new studio named Too Kyo Games. DualShockers met with them both, alongside with Composer Masafumi Takada, and we had an extensive conversation about the studio and its future projects Giuseppe: You left Spike Chunsoft to create your own
Welcome to the first official DualShockers Definitives list! This week has been a hard one for DualShockers staff, thanks to much arguing and nit-picking over which games in the amazing PS4 library make the Top 10. If you missed the original post, here is a quick TLDR on what this is all about: The DualShockers Definitives
Hey, remember that one time we tried to stream Assassin’s Creed Odyssey ahead of release and it just ended up being a stream of me standing around my apartment? Well, that shouldn’t be the case anymore so we’re going to give this whole Assassin’s Creed Odyssey thing another go. We’ll be streaming Assassin’s Creed Odyssey over on Mixer right now, assuming
With Battle Royales being the buzzword of 2018, the staff of DualShockers began thinking: why aren’t we doing that for console games? Sure, we have our annual Game of the Year awards and various conference awards. But how about a highly debated, contentious list of the Top 10 essential games for each modern platform. Not
One of the defining features of the Mega Man series is that fact that players can tackle the Robot Master bosses in any order. Each boss gives Mega Man a new special ability, which proves to be highly effective on one of the other Robot Masters. Mega Man 11 bring the series back into the
It still hasn’t fully sunk in that I’m reviewing Mega Man 11, the eleventh title in the mainline series of one of gaming most famous franchises, and also a game I never thought I would come out. Capcom mostly ignored the series this decade, and many titles tried to take its place. Some titles like
When Assassin’s Creed first launched back in 2007, the consensus among many was that it had a lot of interesting ideas and potential, but simply needed refinement. Those ideas were then later expanded upon and made considerably better a few years later in Assassin’s Creed II, the entry in this series that is still cited by many as
Playing level creation games can be an uphill battle for many—sometimes the toolset is simply too difficult for the layperson to wrap their head around, and even if creating a level itself isn’t the most significant challenge, playing the absurdly hard levels that seemingly-sadistic players make online certainly is. Enter Ultimate Chicken Horse, a game
Something is rotten in the state of Neverwinter, and the community is responding to it. If you are a frequenter of the Neverwinter sub-reddit or Discord, and you’ve snoozed past this last weekend, you may not have even noticed. That is, of course, intentional–both forums have been sanitized of the controversy. But Twitter is telling a different
The Razer Kraken Tournament Edition (TE for short) strikes an impressive balance between cost, comfort, and a high caliber of quality. It not only serves as a refresh to their popular Kraken line of headsets but also to introduce THX Spatial Audio into the headset game. While there is a lot of competition at the
Donut County is one of the year’s wackiest and most enjoyable releases. Even though it has a simple gameplay loop, it’s a game that oozes fun out of every corner and has a clear identity from beginning to end. It’s one of my personal favorite indie games of the year and has been something that I’ve
Arkane Studios has been one of the industry’s most prominent proponents of single-player experiences that allow the player to test new things out in a given environment. These ideas are at the root of every Arkane game which made it all the more interesting when they revealed that they’d be making releasing Prey: Mooncrash, a new
Tokyo Game Show 2018 has come and gone, and we can finally talk about most of the content that we experienced at the Makuhari Messe. There were tons of great games at the show, so we have a lot to talk about, from Devil May Cry 5 to Ace Combat 7 and Project Judge, it was a festival of really
I do not like driving. Maybe it’s because I live in a tourist trap and there is a lot of traffic. Maybe it’s because my car has been hit on three different occasions while it was parked. Maybe the act of driving is actually terrible. For whatever reason, I have hardly enjoyed my time behind
Last year’s installment of NBA 2K18 was the most divided I had been on the series in years. Even though the basketball itself continued to improve–like it usually does–I felt gross at times while playing it. Microtransactions became even more prominent throughout the game than they already were to the point that it felt like 2K Sports
Developed by Dinosaur Polo Club, Mini Metro is a strategy game that tasks players with creating their own subway system, with the game having arrived recently on Nintendo Switch, following its earlier releases on PC and mobile. At the start of each session, players are presented with three subway stations; connecting all three of these
Ever since the Nintendo Switch jettisoned onto store shelves last March, the same question has come up time and time again for recent game releases: is it coming to the Switch? Admittedly, I was part of the choir singing this tune when I picked up my Switch last year. I wanted to play every game
Back when Treyarch announced that the Battle Royale genre was coming to Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, no one was surprised and most were hyped. I was sitting in the room, mere feet from David Vonderhaar himself when he mentioned the news, and the crowd erupted in cheers. At the time, I mentioned that while the
For the past week or so, I have been enjoying the Blackout beta for Treyarch’s Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 to get my first taste of its much-anticipated take on the Battle Royale genre. What I’ve been most surprised by is the level of nostalgia that I experienced while exploring its large map—from familiar
After being let go from Square Enix, the future of both IO Interactive and Hitman seemed to be in question. Even though IO Interactive retained the rights to the IP, there was uncertainty as to whether the studio could continue on much longer without a publishing partner. Luckily, IO found that partner and soon after revealed Hitman 2, a
Earlier this year, I purchased EA Sports’ NBA Live 18 on a whim; it was on sale for an incredibly cheap price and figured I had nothing to lose. I played two five minute quarter games and realized I did lose a couple of things: my money and my time. It took less than two
Most sports game fans know how EA’s NHL series was neutered with the jump to next-gen. After spending a few years recovering, the developers have finally caught up with themselves and are now trying new things. NHL 18 saw the exciting and intense NHL Threes mode added, while this year NHL 19 sees the addition
When I first saw Claws of Furry, I thought to myself, that looks charming at least. I mean, a game about cats beating up rats and other enemies of their species. It sounded like a delightful multiplayer beat em up with some cute aesthetics. However, what I found was an incredibly unbalanced and wonky beat
Team Ninja is hard at work on Dead or Alive 6, and they have engaged in a consistent stream of new reveals since E3 2018. In order to know more about the game, DualShockers had a chat with Producer and Director Yohei Shimbori, who talked about many elements, from reveal timing to body physics, the brand
Esports is my game of the year. No, seriously. Nothing has pulled me in more this year and made me more invested than the League of Legends North American pro scene, and I hate myself for it. After my boys in Echo Fox lost to those scumbags from TSM in the quarterfinals of the Summer Split Playoffs
