Free-To-Play Games No Longer Need Xbox Live Gold

The plight of console gaming is a dismal one, for which I will never understand. Online gaming is leaking into everything; from simple things like F1 2019 and 2020 needing to connect to a server, all the way to everything Triple-A being…

F1 2021 Announced For Later This Year

You best believe I’m singing The Rascals’ “A Beautiful Morning” today. Ok, it does help to know I’m writing this long before you’re reading it, but still. The sun is (possibly) shining, the birds are somewhere being drowned out by engines, and…

Mortal Shell’s PS5 & Xbox Series X/S Editions Coming Soon

If my comments on Monday during the Prime Gaming article weren’t clear enough, I love a good Souls-like. It was only four months ago on our YouTube channel that I reviewed Dark Souls 3, which I only bothered to start up again since reviewing Cold Symmetry’s Mortal Shell.…

Microsoft Announce FPS Boost For Xbox Series X/S

I’ll bang on about this until the day I die, and given the stress of being the acting-senior editor this week (thanks, Texas!), that might just be until Tuesday. In an Xbox Wire post on Wednesday as an update to something said in…

Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War Campaign (PC) Review

When you fire up a Call of Duty game for campaign mode, you pretty much know what you’re in for. Guerilla warfare with impressionable characters and motives that dictate the lives of millions. The protagonist never or rarely speaks and is integral in saving…

EA Offering Next-Gen Upgrade Plans

EA, like many companies, has games coming to the next-gen consoles that exist on the Xbox One and PS4. If players already own a game, then it looks like they’re going to have some options to upgrade for the PS5 or Xbox…

Halo Infinite Keeps Losing Key Staff

Once again, Halo Infinite is facing another serious difficulty. The game, which has been worked on for half a decade now, is seeing yet another big name leave the production. Back in August of 2019, 343 Industries’ creative director Tim Long and executive producer…

Don’t Start Complaining About Remasters Now

In recent weeks and months leading up to this coming next-generation of consoles, I’ve seen an increase in an anti-remaster/remake sentiment for the new consoles. I’d have been right there with you, providing we hadn’t just gone through the current generation licking…

Next-Gen Launch in November Will Feel Delayed

I had a thought when I was discussing next-gen console with the Phenixx Gaming staff. Nobody I know personally is grabbing a console at launch from either Sony or Microsoft. The real difference this time around is that I know more people…
