Talking Point Was 2020 PlayStation's Best Ever Year?
Not-so hot take, really
We awarded Sony three 10/10s this year. Three of ‘em. Before anyone attempts to play the fanboy (Activity) Card, we also gave the company a 4/10 – for Predator: Hunting Grounds, if you’d forgotten about that game’s existence – so it’s not like we purposefully inflated our ratings. In fact, the three titles we’re...

News Assassin's Creed Valhalla Update Arriving This Week
Should be a big one
Assassin's Creed Valhalla could do with a patch or two. Or three.

Ubisoft had previously...
