The Division 2 – Private Beta

Reviewer: Daniel “Nightmare-ACTUAL” Patterson Case # 000-011 Codename: Agent The events of New York City left a great deal of devastation before and after the civilian agents that rose above to the call of duty when everything else failed. They defeated the wave of rogue agents led by Aaron Keener and everyone else who stood in their way Rioters, Rikers, Cleaners and Last Man Batallion. With the rise of these new threats in Division 2, let’s talk about the different factions

Coming off of a 2-year hiatus, Assassins’ Creed: Origins has been widely praised and very positively received, with gamers praising the title for polishing and buffering the strengths the franchise always had.

South Park: The Fractured but Whole – PC Review

“How come everything today has involved things either coming in or going out of my ass?“ – Eric Cartman “Cartman Get’s an Anal Probe” South Park Season 1 I couldn’t help but echo Cartman’s sentiment during my playthrough of “The Fractured but Whole” the newly released follow up to the “The Stick of Truth”. Once again strange things are afoot in the quiet mountain town of South Park Colorado and once again it is up to you as the New Kid with the power of your gaseous bowels to

Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Preview

Who would have thought that one of the biggest surprises from E3 2017 would have been a game we’ve known about for months? Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is what happens when Ubisoft’s Rabbids pop up in the Mushroom Kingdom we all know and love. This results in a tactical, strategy RPG along the lines of XCOM: Enemy Unknown, but with the color palette of a Mario game. To call it strange is quite an understatement, but it comes off as a charming and whimsical strategy game out

Assassin’s Creed Origins – Hands on at E32017

Starting Up in Egypt Thanks to Ubisoft and Stack Up I was able to get my hands on Assassin’s Creed Origins gameplay on the Xbox. As Bayek I rode into an ancient Egyptian realm on a horse towards my next mission. As I was playing I had the ability to ask questions to a Ubisoft and Assassin’s Creed Origins developer about what I was interacting with. The first new item he explained to me was about the new autorun feature. If you press and hold A (on Xbox) the horse you are on w

Skull and Bones – Ubisoft Announces Pirate Fun at E32017

OK, so we all saw this coming right. During their E3 press conference, Ubisoft dazzled the crowd in attendance with a taste of the new Pirate themed title “Skull and Bones” and while the announcement of new titles is always a pleasant surprise the idea of Ubisoft taking to the high seas is not. From the moment the sailing mechanic intrigued players of Assasins Creed 3 to the refinement of the swashbuckling Black Flag and Rogue, it seemed clear that Ubisoft was on to something

e3 2016 ubisoft press conference recap

Kicking off their conference with a strange, theatrical performance to part of Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now. To Aisha Tyler’s credit, she played off it very well. Note the name drop of the Nintendo NX. Third-party support is confirmed! Ghost Recon Wildlands showcased the cocaine conflict of Bolivia. The game looks promising, even if the demo doesn’t exactly fit it too well. Featuring a very scripted, pre-read dialogue between four players, it focused largely on cooperative play,

Your mission as a Division agent is to restore the order and help the innocent civilians. I have been pretty hyped about this game since the initial announcement and can say the beta has not disappoin

assassins creed syndicate best ac game yet

Since 2007, we have been kept enthralled by the Assassin’s Creed games. They have taken us from Jerusalem in the 12th century to the Victorian age of England. The franchise has had its ups and downs, and I was worried after Black Flag and Rogue that the end was rapidly approaching! Last year’s release of Unity brought some of the soul and life back, but something was still missing. Then, just as I was giving up all hope, they announced Syndicate. I was skeptical but decided t

assassins creed syndicate jack the ripper dlc review

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate’s new DLC is set 20 years after Evie and Jacob took over the streets of London, a time when one of the world’s most notorious serial killers is on the prowl. It seems only a master assassin can stop the evil Jack the Ripper and his reign of terror. There are a few things that changed between the main game and the DLC, most notably are the weapons, as they take away all the diversity in combat by narrowing you to brass knuckles. At first, I was a lit
