Platform: PS4, Xbox One Genre: Western, Open-World, Action-Adventure I'll flat-out say it: Red Redemption 2 is not perfect. It does not deserve a 10 out of 10. There, I said it. Everyone else is praising Rockstar Games' latest effort like it's the greatest game of this generation. I scoff at that notion. Does RDR2 fulf

There are rumours abound involving Capcom changing up last year's fighting game Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, clearly a fan favourite for FGC folks everywhere since last year, and rebrand it as Marvel vs Capcom 4. Let's be a tad fair: MvCI had some good points overshadowed by some major flaws, namely its aesthetics, r

Dragalia Lost is the least innovative title among Nintendo's mobile game offerings, and this is coming from the folks who did Super Mario Run and Fire Emblem Heroes. It’s basically White Cat Project but with a new skin and that Nintendo touch. For those not in tune with the mobile gaming scene, White Cat Projec

It's only been a week or so, but somehow Nintendo and Cygames' latest White Cat Project-esque action RPG is raking in the big bucks. According to analyst firm Sensor Tower (via Variety), the mobile game has grossed US$3.5 million or so since its launch on 27th September worldwide. The game was officially released i

Update: A lot has happened with this game from 2018 up to 2021. Forza Horizon 4 has received significant improvements that warrant a score increase. Plus, with Forza Horizon 3 gone, this entry is the best arcade racing game with open-world trappings by default, which you can also play as a sim.  Platform: Xbox On

Grandia series fans, this one's for you. GameArts' RPG opus -that isn't the Lunar series- will be getting a remaster for the PC and Nintendo Switch. These games were fun because of their real-time-slash-turn-based approach to combat and its colourful-if-cliched storyline with a rotating cast. According to a Game Infor

Sony PlayStation made a preemptive strike a week before Tokyo Game Show to announce its slew of new titles. Let's highlight the best ones, shall we?

Happy belated royal birthday, Yang Dipertuan Agong of Malaysia. To most of us in Malaysia, it's a nice long weekend. But for some of us (sorta) hard at work at Kakuchopurei and definitely, DEFINITELY not distracted by Marvel's Spider-Man on the PS4, it's another opportunity to reminisce about the best kings and queens

Bandai Namco announced that it will be releasing the free-to-download Adventure Pack in 9th August; it'll feature new floors in the Faraway Forest Cave, new bosses like Blackhart and Zeta, and additional que

To say that the world is currently lacking in pirate games, or games set during the Golden Age of Piracy, is an understatement. We have like, what, a couple of them that are worth our time & investment? Sid Meier's Pirates!, the 2004 reboot of the previous game, Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, the Monkey Island ti

Remember that awesome action adventure Legend of Zelda clone with the Joe Madureira artwork? Yeah, we loved Darksiders a lot. Ditto for Darksiders II, the one featuring Death and a ton of action RPG combat with that Jesper Kyd musical sweetness. Lo and behold, there's going to be a third Darksiders game which focuses

With E3 2018 done and gone a few weeks ago, we can all be assured that the rest of 2018 and the earlier parts of 2019, especially 22 February of next year, will be chock-filled with gaming titles aplenty. But what about the games that are MIA? Not to say that we aren't impressed with the diverse lineup of games we hav

This story was originally posted on 22 June. This story is still in development, at least until July 6. So we announced this early morning on Facebook that the official Steam Intergalactic Summer Sale just started. Valve sure likes surprising people with these things, eh? In any case, it's that time of the month wher

Let us go back to the way-back-when machine, during the early and late 2000s. Before From Software became synonymous with Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and "goddamn tough-but-fair JRPGs with so much goth & despair", they used to make a ton of action games. https://youtu.be/MfPmRnheQKY?t=14m31s Action games with mythica

We're in a crazy age where Twitch.tv streamers determine whether a game is worthy of being played by the masses, as well as determine what you should be entertained with. Yes, we know guys like Dr. Disrespect and Ninja are living it up with their streams of Fortnite. We know of the phenomenal streaming powers like PewD
