Earlier this week, two businessmen (Jamie Ottilie and Brian Waddle) announced that they had bought Telltale Games’s company name and some of its licenses. Neither of these men had ever worked at Telltale before. Furthermore, the funds for this investment came largely from Athlon Games, a subsidiary of the Chinese game proprietor Leyou, plus from executives who had previously worked with game publi...[Read More]
Not too long ago, I wrote up a post announcing Jason and Zach’s project over at Kickstarter. What is it you ask? It’s a new and crazy card game called Millennial Manatees. I will state now if you watch the video below you will have the song stuck in your head. This all thanks to Parry Gripp. You may remember some of Parry Gripp’s songs like Space Unicorn, Raining Tacos, Oh Potato...[Read More]
If I said E3 2019 was the best E3 that I have ever been to, I would be lying. The show floor was overcrowded with a lack of things to do. Security was extremely strict and confrontational at times. Because of these two situations, getting to appointments in a timely manner became an obstacle, rather than a guaranteed thing. This is the case with our Mobile Edge appointment for E3 2019. Because of...[Read More]
Growing up in the 90s, I had exposure to some of gaming’s greatest titles at a very young age. This was partly due to my next-door neighbor’s Super Nintendo. With titles like Super Mario World, Mortal Kombat, and Donkey Kong Country, gaming immediately got its hooks in me! My neighbor wasn’t the type to get new games, leaving us with limited options. As a result, that left me with lots of ga...[Read More]
While the core release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider has been impressive enough in its own right, there’s something remarkable about the downloadable content support that both Eidos Montreal and Crystal Dynamics have given it. We’ve seen some fun additional levels and new ideas that bubbled to the surface, including some involving…the undead? We’ve also seen some great Challenge Tombs, giving playe...[Read More]
While the popularity of looter shooters has risen due to the likes of Destiny, The Division, and Anthem, many gamers will say that Gearbox’s Borderlands series is still the pinnacle of the genre. It’s not an understatement to say that Borderlands essentially built the looter shooter craze. Still, the series hasn’t gotten a full release since 2014’s The Pre-Sequel. In the five years since then, the...[Read More]
While the world of gaming continues to explore graphical limitations, virtual realities, and the question-laden streaming of games through a Chrome browser, many players are enjoying whatever system they happen to own whether it be a modern unit or one of the past. There is a whole subset of players that enjoy older consoles and with that comes a group of developers creating games for those system...[Read More]
It is no mystery that Sony has been the top-dog in the console gaming world with their PlayStation 4; it is the most sold console of the generation. However, one contender that has been turning heads since its monumental, record-breaking launch is the Nintendo Switch, a true handheld-television hybrid of a machine that may not be the most technically powerful but has steadily gotten more popular d...[Read More]
Capcom has a history of taking their games and recreating them in a way that respects the original release while injecting new ideas to elevate the game’s ideas. Most notably, Resident Evil was recreated for the Gamecube, turning up the fear and highlighting the game’s fixed camera angles. This love and attention to detail seems to be at play for the remake of Resident Evil 2. Resident Evil 2 was ...[Read More]
Three weeks have passed since The Sangawa Project 2018 and needless to say, this year’s convention went a lot smoother than last. This year, The Sangawa Project moved to the Drury Inn located in Downtown Pittsburgh. The convention took place from November 30th to December 2nd, and although the venue felt smaller it left a more pleasant memory compared to the previous year. Last year, The San...[Read More]
“Almost Heaven”. “Wild and wonderful”. “The Mountain State”. You might’ve heard West Virginia called such as these many times, but until you experience this beautiful countryside for yourself, you might not know exactly how apt these descriptors are. Now, travel can be expensive. Fortunately, when Fallout 76 releases on November 14 of this year, Bethesda Game Studios is providing an inexpens...[Read More]
