Saints Row is a series with two very different takes on the open-world crime genre. With the original Saints Row and its sequel, it was Volition’s take on Grand Theft Auto. It took place in a city named Stillwater, and it was grounded with a dose of grandiose flair sprinkled throughout. Then came Saints Row: The Third and IV. It became a different style of game, set in a metropolis named Steelport, run by over-the-top crime syndicates, and the Saints were criminal superstars that were more violent superheroes than lowly gang members....

To many, it was disappointing to see that the newest game from From Software wasn’t a sequel to Bloodborne or a title in the tone and atmosphere of the Dark Souls series. Anyway, it looks like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice won’t be such a big departure from the pillars that have made the Japanese developer so popular among the souls like fans. “Whereas the other [player] who just likes to rush in there, go katana-on-katana and feel that blade-to-blade, blow-by-blow gameplay, they’re going to feel that intensity....

You’re past the halfway point now and things in Shadow of the Colossus are really heating up. You’ve explored the vast expanses of the forbidden land, and have slain 8 of these majestic and non-violent beasts, but you have 8 left to go and there seems to be no stopping you. This back half is certainly rougher than the first, but we’re here to help out. Here’s our guide on how to beat the 9th colossus in Shadow of the Colossus for PS4....

One of the hugely appealing things about Final Fantasy XIV is how easy it is to switch between different classes. You can select your new class at the push of a button or by switching your weapon, provided you have it unlocked and leveled up appropriately. No switching to alts, all classes on a single character. With that said, is there any reason to play Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker’s Main Story Quest (MSQ) with a single class?...

Though Tiny Tina’s Wonderland’s main story is only about 15 hours or so, you can get more than 30 hours of content if you do most of the side missions. Sidequests scale with your level up to the max of 40, so should you complete them before then? The answer is complicated. If you’re more in it for the XP and gold, then yes. If you want to take quest rewards into the endgame, then no....

Epic Games has been releasing free games every couple of weeks to promote their game launcher. They kicked it off with a huge freebie in Subnautica, and have followed it up with some surprisingly good games with each time. Slime Rancher is no different, the game released in 2017 and appears to be a fun exploration game that has you wrangling slime on a new world. Slime Rancher has a ton of positive reviews, with an Overwhelming Positive score on Steam and a Very Positive with recent reviews....

While the PlayStation 4 Pro will be more powerful that the standard PlayStation 4, there are instances where the changes are very small. One such instance is with the consoles memory, as it has just 1GB more than what the standard PlayStation 4 offers. However, Sony has now explained how this will benefit the console and its games, with Mark Cerny saying “We felt games needed a little more memory – about 10 per cent more – so we added a gigabyte of slow, conventional DRAM to the console....

In a world where we have been looking to eliminate the noise around us, Sony has decided to take the reverse route; provide us with a way to enjoy our music and the ambient sound. For exactly this experience, the company has brought to us the new LinkBuds truly wireless earbuds in India. With an open ring design, these earbuds urge you to let the background noises in while you groove to the new BTS track....

Years ago, it would have been hard to even imagine indie developers being relevant in the gaming space. However, that has certainly changed in more recent years with outstanding indie titles like Journey and plenty of others stealing the spotlight from the much higher big budget AAA games. No Man’s Sky was one of the most talked about games at E3 last month, which years ago would have likely not even had an opportunity to be shown off on such a large stage....

The situation in Ukraine is tragic, and the video game industry has stepped up to help in any way that it can. Some companies, like CD Projekt, have suspended all game sales in Russia in protest of its invasion. Others are making donations: The Pokemon Company gave $200,00 to UNICEF. Sony is doing both in its own call for peace in Ukraine. Announcing its actions on Twitter, PlayStation has “suspended all software and hardware shipments, the launch of Gran Turismo 7, and operations of the PlayStation Store in Russia....

In 2016, 3rd Eye Studios was created by pulling together video game industry veterans from companies such as Remedy Entertainment, Unity Technologies, Bugbear Entertainment, RedLynx and Moon Studios. Today (February 7), the studio announced its first major title, Downward Spiral: Horus Station. Downward Spiral: Horus Station is a dark thriller taking place in a space station with zero gravity physics. The game is devoid of dialogue and cutscenes, instead encouraging the player to discover the story on their own by exploring the environment....

They’ll never see you coming The Camouflage ability is one of the skills Miles possesses that makes him a very unique Spider-Man. Going invisible definitely has its uses, especially during the stealth segments scattered throughout the main campaign and side activities. Investing in this tree will allow Miles to get the drop on his enemies while also augmenting the veiled strikes. Spider-Man: Miles Morales includes three skill trees that can be invested in steadily over the course of the campaign....

It’s shaping up to be one of the best superhero games yet. Sony recently held their E3 press conference, during which gameplay was shown for The Last of Us Part II, Ghost of Tsushima, Death Stranding and Marvel’s Spider-Man, among other announcements and reveals. After the presentation, which had attendees travel to different set pieces based off of the four main games that were showcased, stations were set up with a demo for Spider-Man....

If you told ten-year-old me that Sony/Marvel was planning a Spider-Man film with three Spider-Men (Spider-Mans!?), I’d have totally lost it. At that age, I was already obsessed with the Sam Raimi-helmed Spider-Man (2002), having re-watched it several times over. So, you’re telling me there’s gonna be a movie with 3 Spideys? Excelsior! Fast forward to my late twenties and rumors are abound that the cast of the previous two Sony Spider-Man franchises are joining forces with Tom Holland’s MCU Spidey....

Final Fantasy X has been one of the most relevant JRPG around for an entire generation, and perhaps the one that truly gave the genre the spotlight in the world of gaming. To many, though, it felt like the end of a guaranteed way to craft Final Fantasy games, as it opted for a more linear structure and slightly less mature storytelling. Anyway, it had a sequel with Final Fantasy X-2 and the fact that Final Fantasy XIII had three chapters instead of ‘simply’ two has led longtime fans to ask whether it was possible to build one more Final Fantasy X story in the future....

Anthony Daniels has written a new memoir titled I Am C-3PO: The Inside Story. Daniels is, of course, well-known for his role as the iconic golden protocol droid in the Star Wars movies.

He has also lent his voiceover work for C-3PO on animated series including The Clone Wars and Rebels....

Add pin badges to the list of things that can leak a Triple-A game’s release date, because it looks like the release date for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order was just given away by one of them. Twitter user Nibellion posted a photo of the offending pin badge, which shows a release date of November 15, this year. So that makes the cover art being leaking by a t-shirt, and the release date being leaked by a pin badge....

A rumor reported by website Cinelinx claims that Electronic Arts has greenlit a “re-imagining” of the iconic RPG franchise Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. The website, which is known for its knowledge in the Star Wars universe, revealed the existence of an Obi-Wan TV show way ahead of its announcement, has heard the tip from two different sources, mostly agreeing with the state of the work on this new game....
