Seriously, who doesn’t love a good role-playing game, eh? Of course, this concept wasn’t borne specifically to video games, but the move from tabletops to consoles certainly hasn’t hurt anything. In fact, since bursting onto the scene via 3D open world gaming, RPG’s have basically taken center stage in most gamer’s minds. Each new release of a significant title is often heralded across the internets these days, with triumphant shouts emanating from forums and message boards. Naturally, the PlayStation 4’s enhanced capabilities have really pushed the technical envelope as well as our expectations, forcing game makers to really dig in…

The video game community is abuzz right now because of the sales figures emerging with regards to console sales. Quite obviously, touting an amazing 10 million units sold worldwide, Sony and the PlayStation 4 is the clear winner. Its competitor, the Xbox One, by comparison, only managed half of that with 5 million. While Microsoft certainly has nothing to be ashamed about (they have produced a very nice and powerful console in their own right, after all) the talk of a 2015 PS4 Slim release should have them quaking in their boots a bit. The initial details we have gathered…

When someone utters the words “casino game” one immediately begins to imagine some type of title which actually allows you to wander around in and fiddle about with all sorts of interesting games, like blackjack, poker or roulette.  Being able to physically / virtually walk around in a simulated casino of course, is something that no game developer has been able to pull off quite so easily, even though many have tried to bring this type of experience to the forefront.  Well, it seems as though Digital Leisure is apt to give it a shot with the upcoming PlayStation 4…

For starters, “How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition” is quite the unique title… It presents itself as an isometric RPG but don’t pigeonhole it as your typical experience, whatever you do.  Aside from the amazing story mode (which only asks that you try to survive while attempting to reach your evacuation point on the other side of the map) there are also challenges to dive into.   In other words, even though it might first appear as though there isn’t a lot of content to latch onto, there actually is quite a bit of meat on this pony. Your only real…

Unless you have a sizable gaming budget, it’s pretty much a given that you’re going to have to make a choice as to which 8th generation console to get.  This isn’t to say that either wouldn’t make a nice addition to your entertainment center, of course, only that sometimes you have to make hard choices.  Clearly, both the PlayStation 4 as well as the Xbox One are excellent consoles in their own right, but a victor must be crowned, damnit!  To help you puzzle out a solution to such a quandary, we’ve put together a list of 10 reasons why…

If you’ve been eagerly awaiting news as to when Sony is finally going to update the PlayStation 4’s system, then you’re in luck.  On October 28th, the current PS4 environment is going to be disappearing in favor of an all new series of additions and refinements which Sony has in fact dubbed the “Masamune” update.  That’s right, this is seen as such a radical change that they’ve elected to actually give it a fully-fledged name of its own. Yeah, yeah…but what’s specifically in the update, you’re likely wondering, right?  Here are the main inclusions to take note of… The little…

As the only real competition for FIFA when it comes to footballing video games, the PES (Pro Evolution Soccer) franchise might be poised to really come into its own in 2015.  It could be said that PES is more for those who want to delve into the game in a different, more detailed way.  Conversely, many feel that FIFA only really serves the desires of the mainstream, leaving out certain gameplay bits which might otherwise be more fulfilling it not challenging to certain players.  All in all, it’s a tedious line the dev for this series constantly walk – between…

Even though it seems to have slipped in without too much notice from most, Shinji Mikami’s “The Evil Within” is something of a landmark title for horror fans.  Again, it’s been repeated over and over ad nauseam that “this marks a return to form for the Creator of the Resident Evil series”, but it still bears repeating.   Many with an interest in this development have even been crossing their fingers hoping that it might make way for a new breed of survival games, perhaps even bringing back a bit of that classic feel and magic from the RE days.  The…

Alien: Isolation seems to be a game that most critics don’t’ get, while fans are crying out for more.  The rub of course is in the removal of your more standardized space marine abilities in favor of only being capable of scurrying away like a small, mostly defenseless mammal.  In most scenarios, this means treating the metal innards of a space station gone haywire like your own personal rabbit’s nest and the worst part is, the “wolf” hunting you is a classic Xenomorph a la’ Ridley Scott’s original “Alien” film.  Oh yeah, didn’t we also mention that this is perhaps…

When it comes to basketball games, particularly those on an 8th generation console like the PlayStation 4, people have high expectations.  NBA 2K15’s predecessor, boggled down with some online issues, seems to have drawn intense scrutiny upon this offering, with nearly everyone going over it with a fine-tooth comb.  Of course, if you just step back and approach the game as if you weren’t even a sports fan, what’s there is amazing.  The presentation is absolutely stunning for one, with it being difficult to discern whether or not you’re playing a game or watching one unfold in real life.  Yes,…

With so many dubious Holmes-related entertainment objects emerging from various studios it’s natural to feel doubtful when it comes to quality in the video game department.  For instance, developer Frogwares has produced no less than 9 Sherlock games previous to this one, so it’s not out of place to be wary given their track record.  Rest assured however, what they’ve put together for Crimes & Punishments is pretty spectacular on multiple fronts.  At the end of the day it offers lots of interesting gameplay that strays just far enough off the beaten path to be interesting while also delivering quality…

When it was announced that the creator of the Resident Evil series was being tapped to bring an entirely new survival horror IP to market, everyone was understandably stoked.  Then, when we found out that Shinji Mikami was also interested in trying to bring the genre back to its roots a bit with the upcoming title, the fires of interest rose even further.  Of course, all of this means very little without revealing to us some of the things that we’ll actually be able to do in-game…  Ahem… Stealth Ever since the first Resident Evil game was released people have…
