Predator has been a long awaited addition to Mortal Kombat X ever since he was announced for the game prior to its release. The iconic monster is on his

Nolan North seems to be a big source of news over the last day or so.  First Amy Hennig's new project, then about the thrown out Uncharted content and now

I love getting a peak at interesting canceled game projects and wondering what could have been. That is why I love checking into Unseen64 Tamaki from time

There was a huge shift on Uncharted 4's production early last year. A ton of key creative personnel left their jobs at the developer and the team behind

Amy Hennig is one of the main creatives credited for the Uncharted series. Last year, she left the franchise and developer Naughty Dog to go work with

Tekken 7 has been advertised for a while, and I believe it has been in some Japanese Arcades since February. As of yet though, we have had no clue of when

So, by default of adoring the series, Mass Effect: Andromeda is probably the game I am most looking forward to, even though we don't know too much about

I liked Star Wars: Battlefront a whole bunch when I played it at E3. The big scale battle fit the Star Wars universe well, and zipping around in vehicles

The PC version of the Arkham Knight has had a rough week. The game had to be pulled from Steam's store and refunds have been given out to a lot of

The Batman: Arkham franchise has been quite an interesting case study into the context of how the industry has changed around it. When Arkham Asylum

The other day, I wrote a story about how Apple had taken a somewhat scorched earth approach to the confederate flag discussion, by banning all references

People have been pretty bummed about Star Wars: Battlefront not having a dedicated narrative mode since its been announced. I get it too. We all want an

Ocarina of Time is one of the most beloved games, not only of the Zelda series, but of its generation. It really helped define the Nintendo 64 and it

This is just a quick heads up, as some of you might be very lucky. Star Wars: Battlefront is having an Alpha to test technical issues, but to manage your

I got to play Battleborn for a while at E3. It is a neat idea, essentially bringing Moba style rules to a Borderlands like game. The characters are

The Arkham Knight situation on PC has been a total mess. It's gotten so bad that Warner Brothers have pulled the game meaning you can't purchase online

We are so used to video games announcing themselves years in advance, that Fallout 4 going from released to announced in just five months feels

The scorch the earth policy never seems to work. It only ever annoys everyone, because frankly, none of us like to live in ashes. Apple seem to have
