Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Review (PS4)
Captain Kirk of Duty Call of Duty has been in a strange place for a few years now. The more dismissive folks among the game-buying crowd would tell you that it’s the same game every year with better graphics and a different campaign, but they’re wrong. Each new entry…
Everspace Review (Early Access) (PC)
Rogue Man’s Sky As we move forward, games get weirder. Four years ago, you’d never be able to release a game at $30 on Steam that was still in alpha. Consumers wouldn’t have stood for it. The game would be taken off Steam in days. Yet here, in 2016…

5 Crazy (but not too crazy) E3 Predictions
Some Crazy (sort of) E3 Predictions E3 is so close I can almost smell it. This is the Superbowl for gamers, the masters, the NBA Finals. Just thinking…
Shovel Knight: Specter Of Torment Review (PC)
