As much as I like most of the Battlefield series, Bad Company 2 remains one of my favorite FPS games ever made. The intense, cooperative action of a match felt like it was perfectly paced, and even though later games enhanced the same destructive combat, it never felt just right. However, Forefront’s inspirations are clear,…

The first time I got introduced to Petit Planet, a new life sim from Hoyoverse, it included only one descriptor: “Animal Crossing-like”. That certainly pricked up my ears, as some of my favorite videogame memories stem from an unhealthy amount of time spent in AC games over the years. Still, comparisons can sometimes be unflattering….

If I could paint a picture of a perfect gaming headset, it would be tough to draw anything but the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Elite. After my high views on the Nova Pro Wireless, I struggled to think of anything better besides some minor problems I had, but the Elite enhances every aspect of the previous…

Movie adaptations or TV shows for videogames are becoming more and more common, with season two of Amazon Prime’s Fallout show arriving next month and the recent arrival of Splinter Cell on Netflix. Well, despite the popularity of adaptations, I can’t hide my surprise that Roblox’s Grow a Garden game is getting a movie, especially…

One of this year’s biggest gacha game releases is Duet Night Abyss – or it was meant to be, before the teams behind it decided to do the unthinkable and remove the gacha system. Set in a world overrun by demonic beings, the free-to-play game blends Wuthering Waves with Warframe for an enthralling experience. We…

It’s no secret that the ROG Xbox Ally X is an expensive handheld gaming PC. With a retail price of $999.99, it’s more than double the cost of the Nintendo Switch 2 and significantly more expensive than even the 1TB Steam Deck OLED. So, as a bit of a thought experiment, I researched how many…

Get ready to head back into the metaverse – Persona 5 The Phantom X’s next update promises a lot more content, OG Phantom Thieves, and plenty more to do in Shibuya. Launching on November 6, the 2.4 update is sure to be a hit with long-time Persona fans. That’s right – finally, Persona 5’s Futaba…

Let me set the scene. My friend and I are trying to deliver a cache to a Field Depot, a decent spot for loot in ARC Raiders’ maps. Suddenly, another squad emerges, and we all immediately encourage them to lower their weapons over the microphone. Rather than riddle my shield with bullets, this ragtag band…

I’m a big fan of the blue blur, eagerly anticipating every new adventure that features him, and I’m especially happy when I get to play a game for free. So, it’s no surprise that Sonic Rumble is one of my most anticipated mobile games, with me honestly kind of losing hope that I’d ever see…

After a break in 2025, Football Manager 26 Touch is back. For those who don’t know, this is a slightly pared-down version of Sports Interactive’s iconic football management sim for Apple Arcade and the Nintendo Switch. It doesn’t quite offer the depth of the full-fat version, but it’s a great way for fans of the…
