Since hero 27, Brigette Lindholm was made available for Competitive Mode  on Overwatch, the scene is rife with folks calling for her nerf and declaring the new support-tank hybrid hero as being broken and even overpowered. But is she? Today we are going to dissect this argument, suggest ways on how to counter her an

Update (11 May): Added in more tips on building & loading out mechs.  We had a taste of the new Battletech PC strategy game recently, and it is glorious! It looks great, and it plays like a dream if you're into managing a mercenary group of four Battlemech pilots trying to scrounge up cash doing the odd mercena

After 30 hours of Norse realm exploring, Atreus-training, puzzle-solving, side-questing, and fighting, we knew that God of War had to come to an end. So let's recap the final hour and talk at length about what it means for the franchise's future. I'm going to put extra spoiler tags here because this is really sensitiv

Update (28 April): Added the secret Muspelheim Tower treasure Update (24 April): Added in Niflheim guide.  God of War is an awesome action game with a breathtaking story and really fun combat mechanics.

Platform: PS4 Genre: Action Adventure, Japanese Drama, Thug Life The swan song to Kiryu Kazuma's escapades is now out in English, but is it worth pursuing after all the five other entries and the Kiwami remakes, and also part Zero? Before we start, we should clarify some things about the Yakuza series. It's not GT

What. A. Week. No thanks to these unprecedented results, Power Rankings are harder than ever to produce. With upsets all around, the definition of 'The Strongest Team' is getting flimsier by the day as teams start to figure each other out better. So without further ado, here are this week's Power Rankings, ahead of We

Fresh off the success of their echolocation-based survival thriller 'Stifled', Gattai Games is back with their second entry to the genre - 'Muffled Warfare'. Unlike their debut game where you are fighting for survival and safety, Gattai Games changed the rules in their next game and labeled Muffled Warfare as 'a multip

Platform: PS4 Genre: Action Adventure, God of War Rebirth "Don't be sorry. Be better." I may be paraphrasing here, but that's the key message and quote of the latest God of War. Kratos tells this to his son Atreus at the beginning of the game. Throughout the 20 or so hour journey, that key phrase defines the gam

After much speculation online, it's now made official by Capcom: they are starting to give a lot more s***s about Mega Man. For you X and Zero fans out there, myself including, that's awesome because we're getting all the existing X games in a two-pack collection for the PS4, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch. The Meg

Yes, we know that Southeast Asia runs on one season: Summer. But having the four Seasons calendar template makes it easy to segment our features. In this case, we're focusing on upcoming anime releases that are due this month and onwards. Here are our 12 personal picks of anime shows that will be out in this lukewarm

In case you haven't heard, publisher Cygames announced a huge worldwide tournament for its flagship digital card-flopping game Shadowverse -a.k.a the weaboo anime version of Hearthstone. The contest is called the Shadowverse World Grand Prix, and it's now made eligible for Southeast Asian card sharks. That's right: Si

I remember the days when former director David Jaffe was hyping up the first God of War for the PS2 on magazine interviews. And by god, it delivered: high octane action, a Greek tragedy of a tale, and great action/level design beats. Then part 2 came in and it was more of the same. The story went off the rails a bit an

There are times where you want to go all-out and go big with an army instead of one sole hero. You want to command a batallion of soldiers who will follow your every order no matter how suicidal. You want to see them march slowly, position them and then ambush the opposition when they least expect it. You want to recre

The SoulCalibur series had its fair shares of guest characters; some logical, some absurd. For every Ezio Auditore coming in, we get Darth Vader and Yoda. Leave it to Bandai Namco to continue the guest character train for its sword-combat series. We now have Geralt of Rivia in the game, in his Witcher 3: Wild Hunt get

When it comes to anime, Malaysia sure has come a long way from buying expensive VHS cassettes and DVDs and even paying Kota Raya-branded pirated copies and reprints. Ever since video streaming services have popped up for the internet to consume, there are a ton of shows that are making their way to Southeast Asian shor

We are back again with this week's questions that need answering. Let's get straight to it. But before that, let's have a quick look at this week's round of matches: Will Seoul Survive the Korean Gauntlet?

It's been far too long since we've had a pirate simulator, or a game involving pirates, sailing, and a good cocktail mix of plundering and skullduggery. True, we can go back to seafaring fares like Sid Meier's Pirates or Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag. Or we can play that Monkey Island remake if we just want to get t

The beauty of the Nintendo Switch, apart from having kick ass games in 2017 like Splatoon 2 and Xenoblade Chronicles 2, is letting you play console quality games when you're mobile. Whether you're in your car, on the bus, on an Uber, or on the LRT/MRT, you can't deny how convenient and awesome this is. Heck, I'll just

This mid-February was a milestone for PlayStation. It was the release of their follow up to the PlayStation Portable console, the PlayStation Vita. Technically it was December 2011 since it came out in Japan first. I should know; I opened the damn thing for all to see. But I just did a quick wiki search and figured

With all this talk about Monster Hunter: World, you'd think Capcom would be announcing a statue or action figure featuring monsters from the new sequel. Well, you can settle for this fine piece from video game statue-makers Kinetiquettes instead. Kinetiquettes will be launching a few Monster Hunter pieces, including t
