It's that time of year where summer kicks off and game companies are ready to show off the latest and greatest in gaming. And while E3 may be a distant memory (for now), Summer Game Fest and all of its individual publisher showcases are ready to take part of the festivities. But in particular, we look at the Xbox Showcase and see what they could possibly do to gain consumer tru

The Xbox brand has been hit hard the last couple of weeks between the CMA blocking the Activision Blizzard King acquisition and now with the underwhelming reviews given to the release of Redfall. It has created a situation where many media outlets and content creators are calling for Phil Spencer and team to be removed from running the brand. Are we really at that point for Microso

2023 has seen its share of big game releases so far, but it has also seen its fair share of bugs, glitches, and performance issues. Hogwarts Legacy, Wild Hearts, Wo-Long, Star Wars Jedi Survivor, and The Last of Us Part 1 have all fallen under these buckets of late. It is not a new issue if you've tracked the industry long enough (see Cyberpunk 2077 and Fallout 76 for prior exa

The last handheld system that Sony had was the Vita, which died a quiet death a few years ago as Sony went full speed on their console support. Which is why it was curious to learn of rumors of Project Q-Lite, which supposedly is either Sony's new cloud gaming handheld or is a dedicated handheld for PS5 Remote Play. The latter seems odd considering many devices support Remote P

Since 1995, E3 has been a gaming staple to showcase the latest games coming out for consumers to enjoy and to also give publishers and developers a platform to strike deals for the upcoming releases. Over the last 5 years though, it has suffered an identity crisis trying to figure out its presence in a world where digital events can happen and other shows like PAX and Gamescom are

Nintendo Switch is on a warpath in sales as it was announced as end of September 30th that they have sold around 114 million devices.  An impressive feat that should be honored even as we call for Nintendo to upgrade its specs or start thinking about its new hardware in the midst of the launch of the Steam Deck and concerns expressed about performance and frame rates.  It

I have never played Skyrim before until these last few weeks.  It was a game that came out during a time where gaming was less of a priority in my life.  Building a big sprawling world where you can be immersed it and see your character grow is not an easy game to make.  Bethesda has been kings at making these games for a long while and with Starfield presumably abou

G4TV is gone....again.  Try as it might to stand out in a 2022 gaming media landscape, it eventually found itself competing with tons of gaming channels across the YouTube and Twitch platforms that consumers have been more drawn to during G4TV's original absence.  What was done wrong and who is to blame?  We deep dive into the fall of a cherished gaming network.

We're only a month removed from The Last of Us Part 1's remake release on the PS5 and already the rumor train is milling over a potential remaster/remake of 2017's Horizon Zero Dawn along with a multiplayer mode involving co-op.  Is this the direction Sony should be taking with their franchises?  Are they forgetting their legacy that brought them to the big dance?  O

The launch of Cyberpunk 2077 back in December 2020 will go down as the one of the most critically panned launches in gaming history.  Even with many calling it a good game on its own, it still ruined CD Projekt Red's reputation as they pulled the wool over the eyes of console customers and even Sony itself - forcing them to delist the game from the Playstation Store for a peri
