As the title suggests, Sony was pushing very heavily it’s PlayStation VR platform this year at E3, with several “new” games being demonstrated with the technology. I say new, but in many cases the games being presented are old titles with new VR updates – Superhot and (uhg) Skyrim are the most blatant examples, with […]
This is one of those games that, while it certainly isn’t enough to make me go out and buy a Playstation 4 (hell, I couldn’t be bothered to buy a Playstation 3 even with all the Killzone releases on the system), this is one of those games that I just kind of hate is exclusive. […]
Don’t get me wrong, I’m quite excited for Destiny 2, but this trailer was somewhat lacking. It shows a bit more of the upcoming story, but we all know this is all footage we will see in the first 10 minutes of the game! Looks like the Cabal are really laying siege to the City, […]
The major element of E3 is the games. Last year, I only covered a few major games and let the rest come and go as it was. This year, I plan on covering many many more games, over the next week or so – easily probably 20 different games are certainly worth me at least […]
Just because I’m “not excited for E3” doesn’t mean the news presented at the event doesn’t excite me! It certainly does, and had you read that previous article carefully you would have seen the point is the information, not the event itself – the event is archaic, but the news shared isn’t. No, I’m Not […]
The yearly Electronics Entertainment Expo, known as “E3” will be taking place from June 13th through the 15th, 2017.

As the […]
UPDATE: The company returned on January 4th, 2018: https://www.xadara.com/the-return-of-mad-catz/ Back on March 30th, 2017, video game hardware accessory maker Mad Catz announced it was closing, after filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy and being de-listed from the New York Stock Exchange. The company has been spiraling downhill for quite some time now, sadly, and while there are […]
Game Journalist Jim Sterling released a video in his Jimquisition series this week which discussed, quite critically, the current state of, and concept in general of virtual reality. I wrote earlier this year about some of my criticisms of the entire idea, and practical application of VR on a whole. To sum it up, because […]
E3 2016 has already been quite a bit of excitement, with announcements we all expected combined with some that are coming totally out of left field. So far I haven’t written much of anything about it simply due to me waiting for the bulk of the announcements I would care about (namely Sony and Microsoft) […]
Next weekend is going to be a big one for the gaming world; this years Electronic Entertainment Expo, or E3, the largest event in the gaming world, will be occurring in Los Angeles. I’m not one for hype… gaming hype especially is often the key thing ruining a game experience for many, but with the […]
March 31st, 2016 marked the end of an era of gaming. Final Fantasy XI, the first MMORPG in the nearly 3 decades old Final Fantasy series had its console servers for the Playstation 2 and the Xbox 360 shut down on that day. For the 360, it was just one of many games on the […]
Downloadable Content. Intended as a way to expand the quality of a game after its initial release, many gamers see it as a bane of their gaming experience, often feeling it is nothing more than a way to milk more money out of the consumer who already spent $60 or more on their new game. […]
Last year, the Xbox One and the Playstation 4 were released to the North American market, pushing all 3 major game console manufacturers into the 8th Generation of gaming, following the release of the Nintendo WiiU in 2012. Like every generation of consoles before them, these consoles represent a new stage in console gaming hardware, […]
After 7 years of the Playstation 3 and the Xbox 360 being the dominant players in the home console gaming market, the time has finally come for Sony and Microsoft to begin telling the world more about the successors to the current generation of gaming consoles. The first bit of information coming out though doesn’t […]
