BOTS or PLAYERS: Should a Gamer Have to Choose?
I am a big fan of bots in multiplayer shooting games. This is because playing online with other players doesn’t really appeal to me. There are occasions when I will play a Call of Duty game online here and there, but those are rare occurrences. More than 90 percent of my time in multiplayer shooters is spent playing with and against the A.I in the game. It’s what I prefer and I wish that every multiplayer shooting game included this option.

IN THE NEWS: Could Competition Revive Sports Gaming?
Sports gaming has lacked real competition for a long time and it is believed by many sports gamers that the quality of games has suffered as a result. Sure, companies such as Electronic Arts and Take-Two Interactive (parent company of 2K) are making bigger profits on their top games such as Madden NFL and NBA 2K than ever before. Yet the criticisms have been more numerous and common in recent years as well. There’s also less sports game choices than there were 15 to 20 years ago. Today’s sports gaming landscape seems very stale compared to the past. It needs a spark and some healthy competition may be the answer. Continue Reading

Finally Finished Star Wars Battlefront II Campaign
It certainly took me long enough. I’ve owned the modern Star Wars Battlefront II since 2019 and had never played through and finished the campaign because I was too busy focusing on the game’s other single-player modes with a hint of online co-op mixed in. That in itself made Battlefront II an amazing game from my point of view. But when I finally decided to play the campaign a month ago, that was the icing that topped what was an already well-made cake. Continue Reading
IN THE NEWS: Mass Effect Legendary Edition
Mass Effect Legendary Edition, one of 2021’s most anticipated releases, has finally arrived.
Science fiction and space drama gamers can finally rejoice as Mass Effect Legendary Edition is finally available on the PC, Xbox One, and the PlayStation 4. The remastered trilogy can also be played on the Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X/S through backward compatibility, but Mass Effect Legendary Edition was specifically developed for the previous generation consoles.
