I’m in two-minds about VR, and I’m not sold on PlayStation VR. As far as affordability and accessibility go, Sony’s VR headset is undoubtedly the way to go if you’re looking to invest in the technology, but I have concerns about the long-term viability of the hardware beyond being just another gaming gimmick. That said, …
Just as we named Overwatch‘s most popular characters and discovered that Torbjörn has an unfair win-rate on consoles compared to PC, Blizzard has confirmed that the jerk-off is finally getting the nerf he deserves. I must admit: I love playing as Torbjörn on certain maps. Hanamura’s centralised entry points to the objective make turret placement …
The reveal of Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man at E3 was one of the event’s best moments. While its PS4 exclusivity is unsurprising given Sony’s relationship with the Spider-Man license (it owns the rights to the web-slinger’s film portfolio), it’s rare to see such a popular third-party franchise and character get the exclusivity treatment. Lara Croft’s recent …

One of the features that stood out from Kaplan’s reveal was that of golden guns, which are cosmetic rewards for particularly skilled players in …
Overwatch’s success cannot be doubted. At 10 million players and counting, it’s been one of the year’s most popular and critically acclaimed games. The multiplayer-only offering is getting a competitive mode in the coming weeks, which should add some much-needed variety to the competitiveness of the experience, with Quick Play currently acting merely as a …
Despite how profoundly influential your choices at the end of Mass Effect 3 would have been on the entire galaxy (not to mention the future of the human race) those choices won’t be reflected in Mass Effect: Andromeda. Bioware confirmed this in an interview with Eurogamer, with studio boss Aaryn Flynn saying that the company acknowledged criticisms …
The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is getting the long-awaited remastered treatment, and will come to Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. However, console gamers are frustrated that they’ll have to fork out full price, while PC players who own the original will get the game for free.
