NHL 26 (Xbox Series X) Review

NHL 26 arrives just one month before the start of the upcoming season. A mainstay in sports video games for years now, the series is always a hit with diehard hockey fans, but will this year’s entry keep casual or moderate players…

skate. Gets Early Access Release Next Month

Much like my sleep, I’m tossing and turning on the whole EA Skate thing day in and day out. Like most of the early 2010s, I picked up Skate 3 and did so before YouTube made it popular, finding it hilarious that…

Madden NFL 26 (Xbox Series X) Review

Unlike the overall indifference I felt playing EA College Football 26 this year, a lot about Madden NFL 26 feels like a nice step forward. Much of the marketing around this year’s gameplay changes has focused on enabling players to feel like they really pop,…

F1 25 (PC) – Review

Another year, another year of toxic fandoms bickering about which of the millionaire twinks, Lance Stroll, and the Zaddy will match with them on Grindr. It must be time for F1! F1 25 brings a few new additions to this year’s release…

Star Wars Zero Company Announced

The love for the Star Wars prequels truly took decades to develop. While some kids (like me) grew up into adults who fondly remembered the second Star Wars trilogy, most fans felt let down at first by Episodes I-III. Flash-forward to today, and there’s a…

EA release Command & Conquer source code

Maybe I’m the odd one out with a PC that just hates Westwood Studios, and if that wasn’t a Vegas-based studio, I’d be making a Tim Westwood reference. Nonetheless, last year’s Winter Sale on Steam, I decided to pick up the Command…

EA Origin set to be shut down in April

It goes without saying, this idea of an all-digital future is pretty crap. One minute you might have created a nice little living out of an online platform for it to disappear soon after, and in one case return shortly after thanking…

Black (PS2) – Review

The year was 2006, the console was the PS2, and the developer was Criterion Games. The perfect storm of developer, console, and year following half a decade of car-crashing success. Better still, the studio was still backed by EA, meaning the studio…

Where is the Dragon Age Collection?

I am a huge fan of the Dragon Age franchise. I’ve played every game in the series and enjoyed much of the extended media. From books to the most recent podcast, the Dragon Age series captivates fans new and old. So, why…
