Total War: Warhammer III Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs Review – Best Time to Play the Game

By 6 Mins Read
total war warhammer iii forge of the chaos dwarfs dlc screenshot 1

Total War: Warhammer III Forge of the Chaos Dwarfs Review A little more than a year ago, Total War: Warhammer III was released to the acclaim of many an awards show, videogame critic, and grognard. I’m not here to review the whole thing all over again, as many others have already said it better than I ever could. It is that damn good. What I am here for, is to convince you that now more than ever is the best time to get into this utterly massive grand strategy game that’s gonna tide you over your RTS itch (and more) until maybe either another Dawn of War, Starcraft, or Total War gets made. The games I just mentioned are classics in their own right, and this DLC just further cements the greatness that is Total War: Warhammer III. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiHvsinEn58 If you’re a Warhammer fantasy fan, and if you’re not already…

Road 96: Mile 0 Review – A Bumpy Ride

By 9 Mins Read
road 96 mile 0 key art

Road 96: Mile 0 is a prequel side story to the immensely enjoyable Road 96, which was first released back in 2021. From Digixart and Ravenscourt, this latest release explores the backstory of one of the seven key characters in Road 96, Zoe Muller, and her best friend Kaito. Living a carefree life in the exclusive community of White Sands, Zoe and Kaito await the historic announcement from Petria’s dictator Tyrax while dealing with their own personal issues. While I am curious to learn more about Zoe’s backstory, as she was one of the more mysterious characters of the previous game, I’m approaching this prequel with caution as many of the gameplay mechanics seen in Road 96 aren’t present. However, if there was one thing that the previous title excelled in, it was the balanced delivery of a good story and engaging characters. Are you ready to hit the road…

MLB The Show 23 Review – Batter Up

By 7 Mins Read

MLB The Show 23 Review Another year, another annual sports game! MLB The Show 23 is the latest installment in this long-running series that has been unrivaled thanks to its strong gameplay and fantastic recreation of the sport that has fans and baseball aficionados generally satisfied year in, and year out. While MLB The Show 22 was quite a middling affair, not by anything else other than it being more of an incremental update, Sony’s San Diego Studio is coming into this year with bats at the ready. While the general gameplay remains, and it is solid in most aspects, the addition of The Negro Leagues is exactly what the game needed to stay fresh and relevant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym_9K5hcg2g Solid, but way too Familiar This shouldn’t come as a complete shock to sports games followers, but MLB The Show 23 is pretty much the same game from last year, save for…

Horizon Call of the Mountain Review – PS VR2 Showpiece

By 9 Mins Read
horiizon call of the mountain key art

Horizon Call of the Mountain Review Horizon Call of the Mountain is the latest “Horizon” installment from Guerrilla Games, albeit not a mainline title like Zero Dawn and Forbidden West, but one for the PS VR2. What could be considered the flagship title for the new hardware, the game sees a new hero not named Aloy take on the many challenges of the wilds in a story about redemption. As a PS VR2 title, you can expect some fundamental things to change from the base Horizon formula. If you’re looking for some fast-paced mechanical dino hunting, you’ve come to the wrong place (sort of). Instead, you get a fully immersive experience that brings you deep into the heart of the wilderness and will require as much from you as you see on the screen (sort of). Curious to hear what it’s all about? Read on and find out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUWB3NBpcbo It’s…

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Review – The Force is Strong

star wars jedi fallen order

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Review We’ve mentioned Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, or Fallen Order moving forward, on our backlog in anticipation of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor releasing later this month. It was offered as one of the free PS Plus games back in January, making it a no-brainer for it to be part of your playlist. Fallen Order tells a story of a padawan survivor, Cal Kestis, who is living day to day hiding from persecution. After narrowly escaping the Inquisitors, he finds himself allied with a motley crew searching for a holocron that holds information on force-sensitive children throughout the galaxy. Seeing it as a way to rebuild the Jedi order, Cal and his companions scour the galaxy for this artifact to stop the Inquisitors from getting their hands on it. Is Fallen Order a necessary experience to play Star Wars Jedi: Survivor? Read on, Padawan, to…

The Last of Us Part I PC Review – Not Like This

By 9 Mins Read

The Last of Us Part I PC Review The Last of Us Part I is experiencing a resurgence as of late. With the massive success of the HBO show featuring Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsay, many first-timers are wanting to try out the game, so this PC release is something that should give it the boost it needs. Unfortunately, things did not go as planned, as The Last of Us Part I launched to a low standard that was unfamiliar to Naughty Dog. Issues abound, and many didn’t get to review it until the day of launch, which revealed a ton of bugs and unwanted hitches. How does The Last of Us Part I PC port stack up to the stable of decent PC launches from PlayStation? Let’s find out! *Disclaimer – We are playing the game on a patched version.

Resident Evil 4 Remake Review – R.E.turn of The King

By 10 Mins Read

Resident Evil 4 Remake Review If you were a Gamecube owner and Resident Evil fan back in the early 2000s, consider yourself lucky since you got to enjoy not only the vastly improved remake of the first game but also the next mainline entry, Resident Evil 4. Little did everyone know how big of an impact the game would have on the genre, and games in general. The game is celebrated for breathing new life into the franchise. The more action-oriented approach sprinkled with a good amount of horror was a fresh experience for everybody, with features like the 3rd person aiming system that went on to be a major influence in other games. It was widely considered as one of the greatest games of all time, so there was some creeping doubt that a remake could do it justice. While the Resident Evil 2 remake was a shining example…

WWE 2K23 Review – A Slam in the Right Direction

By 8 Mins Read

WWE 2K23 Review While Visual Concept’s WWE 2K22 wasn’t completely a masterpiece, the game really redeemed the franchise from its dismal state a few years back. Thanks to numerous improvements made, it’s no surprise then, that we now have WWE 2K23. Last year’s showcase featured the amazing Rey Mysterio, but this year we really just can’t see anybody in the spotlight. Which just means one thing: JOHN CENA! We’ll be getting the obvious stuff out of the way here, and this year features the Dr. of Thuganomics himself. All that’s left is to see if Visual Concept is able to keep up the momentum of what they have started the year before. Here’s our review of WWE 2K23. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fc819wHw6I The Gang’s (Not) All Here This latest entry’s roster will likely be a mixed bag, just like last year, and your enjoyment of WWE 2K23 will really depend on the eras…

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is Incredibly Fun and Seriously Entertaining

By 7 Mins Read
dungeons & dragons honor among thieves banner

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves is an upcoming film that may seem intimidating if you’ve never immersed yourself in the long-running fantasy tabletop RPG. Starring the likes of Chris Pine, Michelle Rodriguez, Hugh Grant, and much more, the film goes live in cinemas nationwide on March 29 courtesy of Paramount Pictures. Intros out of the way, D&D: Honor Among Thieves is an incredibly entertaining fantasy adventure that does not require prior knowledge of the material it was adapted from (and rewards it generously if you do). It’s a heist film – think Ocean’s Eleven but with dungeons instead of hotels and dragons instead of Al Pacino (not too far away, I’d say). There are planning and prep montages, we got things going hilariously wrong, and we got specialized characters doing physics-breaking acrobatics. ‘Tis a bread-and-butter formula for sure, but who would’ve thought this would work so well when melded…

The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition Review – Enter With Caution

By 7 Mins Read
the outer worlds spacer's choice edition key art

The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition Review The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition launched earlier this month from Obsidian Entertainment, Private Division, and Virtuos. Compiling the base game and both of its excellent DLCs, Peril on Gorgon and Murder on Eridanos, we get a fantastic package that optimizes the game for current-gen consoles. There’s a catch, though! Since this is a full package with included DLC, players will have to cough up enough dough for a full-priced release. Looking for a current-gen upgrade? Well, you’ll have to shell out for that too. We’ll get to these later! For now, what has changed since The Outer Worlds dropped back in 2019? Read on fellow spacefarer and see the difference! *Disclaimer – we played and reviewed the game on a patched version and not the original release. https://youtu.be/CI7-H0W5uUo A Current-gen Face Lift The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition, coming from someone who…

Shazam! Fury of the Gods’ Lighthearted Fun Makes for an Enjoyable Time

By 4 Mins Read
shazam! fury of the gods still 1

It took a while, but Shazam is finally back in Shazam! Fury of the Gods. This is the much-awaited sequel to the surprisingly fun 2019 installment and is the last movie before the vision of now-DC Studios CEO James Gunn starts to materialize. Family isn’t usually a word I’d use to describe something that’s not related to The Fast and the Furious, but it perfectly encapsulates what the film is all about. It’s fun but also emotional, and a number of heartfelt moments really make the film shine, warts and all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvZSRT2Mqr0 To the uninitiated, Shazam (Zachary Levi) is about a boy named Billy Batson (Asher Angel) and his foster siblings who transform into superheroes when they shout the name “Shazam!” – an acronym for six heroes each giving them a certain power: Wisdom of Solomon, Strength of Hercules, Stamina of Atlas, Power of Zeus, Courage of Achilles, and Speed…

PS VR2 Review – Feel a New Real

By 16 Mins Read
psvr2 price revealed

The PS VR2 is finally here, and after more than 6 years since the first iteration was released, VR enthusiasts and first-timers can look forward to a proper current-gen experience through a different lens. The PS VR2 retails for PHP 34,790 ($550) in the Philippines, and at a price point that’s slightly more expensive than a PS5, the barrier of entry is admittedly tough to break. Considering that you’ll also need an actual PS5 to make the thing work, you’re looking at an initial investment of at least PHP 65,000 ($1050) for a “feel of a new real,” as indicated in Sony’s marketing efforts. In this review, I’ll be laying down the facts after two weeks of using the highly-touted headset, and by the end of this, I’m hoping that I’ve helped you make up your mind on whether this hardware is for you or not. As a disclaimer, we’ll…

DualSense Edge Review – Very Nice Except for the Price

By 12 Mins Read

It took a while, but Sony has finally hopped on the “pro” controller bandwagon. The DualSense Edge wireless controller is Sony’s long-awaited answer to hardware coming from the likes of SCUF and, more directly, Microsoft’s Xbox Elite Wireless Controller. The company did try out some gimmicky back-button attachment for the PS4 DualShock Controller rather late into its life cycle, but it didn’t really answer the needs of controller enthusiasts who wanted more out of their hardware. The DualSense Edge wireless controller is finally here, and it retails for PHP 12,490 ($199.99) in the Philippines. Can a customizable controller built specifically for the PS5 give enough back to the players to offset the premium price?
