Torchlight III Review

Gary Smith

In real life, it's been eight years since Torchlight 2 released but finally the third game in the franchise is here. In game, it's been a century since the events of Torchlight II. Novastraia is once more under threat of invasion and you'll need to venture forth into the frontier to defend against the Netherim and its allies. Along the way, you'll overcome hordes of enemies to find fame, glory and new adventures. Torchlight III (PC, PS4 [Reviewed], Xbox One, Nintendo Switch) Developer: Echtra…

Macrotis: A Mother’s Journey Review

Gary Smith1 Comment

Macrotis, the emotional puzzle platformer from the Istanbul, Turkey based Proud Dinosaurs, has finally made its way to consoles after originally releasing on PC back in February 2019 thanks to publisher EastAsiaSoft. A mother bilby needs your help to get back to her children, if you can overcome the environment and solve the puzzles to get back to them.

Doug Flutie’s Maximum Football 2020 Review

Gary Smith

It's hard to believe it's been so long, but the last NCAA Football game released all the way back on July 3, 2013 on PS3 and Xbox 360. New consoles would arrive a few months later, and now we're a little over a month away from new consoles arriving again. For the past six college seasons, every time I wanted to play some college football (which is vastly superior to professional football) I had to my PS3 to get it to read a disc. But not this year. This year, I'm playing a college dynasty on a…

Crysis Remastered Review

Gary Smith

In 2007, I was doing most of my gaming on the Nintendo Wii, the original Xbox, and a low-end PC (mostly playing Black Hawk Down multiplayer). My brother built a gaming PC and it did run Crysis, although it didn't run it on the highest setting (one below that). I played a little bit of Crysis on that PC when the game came out and it was stunning. It looked amazing and the gameplay was fun. In many ways, it was indeed a jaw-dropping experience. Fast forward to 2020, and Crysis has been remastered…

Kingdoms of Amalur Re-Reckoning Review

Gary Smith

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning originally released all the way back in February 2012 on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. We won't get into the history of the development of the game and the quick demise of developers 38 Studios and Big Huge Games, because none of that matters in the present. Reckoning was to be the introduction to the Kingdoms of Amalur, which would have been a grand MMO. What we got with Reckoning is a single player RPG, although one that in small ways feels like an MMO world…

MAG Deserves Rebirth on PS5

PatriotPaine

It's hard to believe, but it has been over 10 years since MAG was released on PS3 and now we're inching ever closer to the release of PS5 (even if we still don't know that date yet). It was, in the long run, a short-lived game that released in January 2010. As an online only title with no single player to speak of, the servers for MAG went offline on January 28, 2014 just a couple of months after the launch of PS4. Sadly, the game has been dead longer than it had a chance to be played. I got a…

Marvel’s Avengers Review

Gary Smith

Marvel's Avengers has been out for a week now, for those of us who ordered the version with 72 hours of early access anyway, and in that week I've gotten a couple of characters of the level cap of 50 and into the power soft cap of 130. I've done everything there is to do in Avengers outside of the AIM Secret Lab raid, so I'm now in a confident spot to write this review. Before we dive into it though, let's establish where I'm coming from here. I don't read comics, and never have. My familiarity…

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout Review

Gary Smith1 Comment

It's been almost a month since Fall Guys took the world by storm. Since its release on August 3rd, the game has quickly become of the most popular (both played and watched) games on the planet and also is the most downloaded game in PlayStation Plus history. While it's been free on PS Plus, it has still managed to sell over seven million copies on Steam at an MSRP of $19.99. It's been an amazing success story, has become a favorite of many, and shows absolutely no signs of slowing down anytime…

Darksiders Genesis Review

Gary Smith

Darksiders Genesis has arrived on consoles (PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch) after releasing late last year for PC and Google Stadia. Budget priced at $39.99, Genesis brings a lot of value to the table in terms of a fun gameplay loop and replayability. Genesis is a spin-off of the main Darksiders games, and in this case serves as a prequel taking place before the three numbered games. The perspective has shifted to an isometric one akin to Diablo, the developer is Airship Syndicate as opposed…

Lair has an interesting story and some fun moments, but frustrating motion controls and uneven mission design keep it from taking flight. Two out of five stars.

Mafia II Review

Mafia II has a great story and impressive attention to detail, but a hollow open world, weak melee, and PS3 freezing issues keep it from being more. Three out of five.
