Update: the article's original headline said that Death Stranding had 10 awards; it has 9. Kakuchopurei regrets the error. The Game Awards 2019 is happening soon in the next few weeks, so it's apparent that the nominations are primed and ready.  Turns out that it's chock-filled with Death Stranding. No, really: th

Platform: PS4, Xbox One, PC Genre: Metroidvania, Soulsborne-lite, & Uncharted-lite For over four decades of its franchise, Star Wars has translated pretty well into video games. Putting aside all the shooters and racing games we've received, games that really allow players to live the fantasy of being a Jedi have

From the day the game was revealed at E3 2016 up until the very day I received my review code, there was a consistent fe

Platform: Nintendo Switch Genre: Nintendo-sanctioned Ghostbusters game doubling as Hotel Mario 2 It's rather surreal that a Nintendo game starring Mario's "lesser" brother ends up being the more charismatic and inventive one of the lot. As charming and as heroic Mario is, he's rather boring and seems all-too vanill

BlizzCon 2019 is over. The reveals of Overwatch 2 and Diablo IV will be the topic of conversations all the way until 2020. However, the black spot of the controversy involving Hong Kong Hearthstone player Chung "blitzchung" Ng Wai will also continue to taint Blizzard's reputation. [caption id="attachment_43018" align=

It's really no surprise the latest Call of Duty is doing great sales-wise: it's the most requested title since the Modern Warfare trilogy 10 years or so ago.
