News Wait, Apex Legends' Next Character Isn't Actually Forge at All
Hang on, that's Revenant

News Metro Exodus: Sam's Story DLC Is in Search of the USA, Out Next Month
The journey ends
Metro: Exodus is probably a game you haven't heard about or thought of in quite some time. The much forgotten 2019 PlayStation 4 title didn't live up to the expectations it set itself last year, and the first piece of DLC that makes up its season pass continued that trend. Let's hope then that its final expansion, titled Sam's...

Mini Review Hardcore Mecha - Story-Based Ode to Gundam Is a Fantastic Slice of Mecha Action
Shoot for the stars
Developer RocketPunch Games displays a clear love of all things mecha with Hardcore Mecha, a side scrolling mission-based action shooter that tells a surprisingly engaging story.

News Patapon 2 Remastered Finally Has a PS4 Release Date, and It's Right Around the Corner
Pata pata pata done
Sony went through a brief phase of remastering a bunch of PSP games, including Patapon 2 Remastered.

Review Journey to the Savage Planet - A Shallow But Easy Going Sci-Fi Escapade
Journey to the Average Planet
As you fire up Journey to the Savage Planet, its theme music begins to play.

Drake's misfortune
The Uncharted movie, better known as the Un-started movie (high five), has been delayed.

News PS5 Startup Sequence Is Likely Fake, But Still Lovely
Fully loaded
Up until the PlayStation 4 and PS Vita, Sony used to invest a lot of time and resources into its consoles’ start-up sequences.
