News That Final Fantasy VII Remake Demo Is Definitely Happening as Full Intro Leaks Online
There it is
Last week, the PlayStation Store listing for a supposed Final Fantasy VII Remake demo was discovered. The leak looked legit and with the full game due out in just a few months, the sudden appearance of a demo made total sense. But if, for some reason, that leak wasn't enough to convince you that a demo is definitely coming, this brand...

The creator's first title since Metal Gear Solid V: The...

News Did Sony Just Tease the PS5 Reveal at Its CES 2020 Press Conference Next Week?

Game of the Year #3 - Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice
Heavenly sword
The truth is, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice isn't really meant to be any easier or harder than Dark Souls. It's just its own thing, off to the side. From Software has been making hardcore action RPGs for about a decade, so it's no wonder that it would want to shake things up every now and again. It did so to an extent with Bloodborne, and...

Game of the Year #4 - Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order
What the Force deserves
It's almost impressive how badly Electronic Arts has handled the Star Wars license up to now.

Devil May Cry 5 is Capcom back to its best.

In short, Devil May Cry 5 is easily one of the best...

As soon as you boot it up, it's clear that developer Seba Games Dev has a passion for old school brawlers, but that's not to say the game's lacking an identity of its own...
