Destiny 2's New Gambit Mode is Insane and Perfect
Demoing the mode at E3, we were tasked with taking down a whole bunch of Cabal, who are vehemently not my favorite opponents to go up against Its the shields and the rockets, mostly, but I find it generally takes me longer to lay waste to a contingent of Cabal than any other enemy type. That[...]

Training Like a Champ With Creed: Rise to Glory at E3

We Got a Preview of Dying Light 2 at E3 That Shows Great Promise
At last year's E3, the crew of Techland looked us right in the eye and said they were not making Dying Light 2.  and that their attention would be on making more content for the original for the dedicated fanbase they earned …Liars! Fake outrage aside, it was pretty cool to see that the company[...]

When visiting the Capcom press booth at E3, we were stoked to find out one of the games we'd be trying out was Mega Man 11 This was not a complete build of the game as we got no story or intros or anything special involving power-ups and abilities All we could do is try[...]

Better Than the Justice League Movie: We Tried LEGO DC Super-Villains
It gave us great joy and pleasure when we say that WB Games/WBIE and TT Games had brought LEGO DC Super-Villains to E3 this year Primarily because even the worst LEGO game always delivers and is fun to play, and secondly because we get a chance to go back into the world of DC Comics for[...]
Hitman 2

Watching Worlds Collide at E3 as we Leap into Jump Force
When we saw the trailer for Jump Force go across the screen during the Xbox press conference, we thought "Surely that game is not at E3." Turns out that yes, it was, and that Bandai Namco wanted you to try it out We couldn't believe our eyes when we saw no one standing in line[...]

There's Never a Break in Overkill's The Walking Dead
The one thing we can't say about Overkill's The Walking Dead demo from E3 is that we were ever bored or were able to take a breather Overkill Studios, Starbreeze Studios, and 505 games have what I would call one of the most nerve-wracking experiences in a demo that I've experienced in a while. The game[...]
Dead Or Alive 6
It's a rarity that Madeline Ricchiuto and myself get to spar with each other in person on any game, so we took full advantage at E3 with Dead or Alive 6. Team Ninja brought the game with them to show off what they had been up to with the franchise the past year or so, as Koei Tecmo[...]
