The Silent Hill franchise is one of the most beloved survival horror franchises in gaming, with many praising the series for its psychological thrills and disturbing atmosphere. In 2014, hype for the series reached a new high as Hideo Kojima revealed he would be tackling the series with Silent Hills, alongside a brief preview of what to expect with the now-infamous demo P.T. All of this anticipation was quickly dashed away when Konami removed P....
The survival horror genre is one of the most thriving areas in video games and it’s incredible to watch how titles have found innovative new ways to frightened audiences and get in their heads. Konami’s Silent Hill franchise used to have a reputation that rivaled Resident Evil, but the series has cooled off in recent years. It’s been nearly a decade since a new Silent Hill game and fans are wondering if they’ll ever get to revisit the creepy community....
It’s been a long few years since Forza Motorsport 7, but we’re finally getting a proper return for Xbox’s premier racing simulator, ditching the numbers and getting back to the start with a simple title: Forza Motorsport.

In 2020, Fall Guys became one of the biggest hits of what is sometimes referred to as the “pandemic era” of the gaming industry. While the platformer battle royale game fell off the radar a bit in 2021, Fall Guys‘ recent pivot to a free-to-play model has proven to be a huge success. Recent reports reveal that the game has even reached over 50 million players since the free-to-play transition occurred just two weeks ago....
Fall Guys hosted a bidding war on Twitter to see which company’s brand would get a new costume, and for a time the winning bid was a bidet. There’s a lot of interest in Fall Guys, both from gamers and from multinational corporations. Gamers see Fall Guys as a great way to kill some time trying to jump a jelly bean into a crown. Corporations see those faceless jelly beans (and the millions of people playing them) as waddling billboards just waiting to be created....
For those that somehow managed to miss it, Bethesda finally announced one of the most anticipated games of all time, Fallout 4. The hype machine began rolling the other day with a countdown site serving as a precursor to the game’s official announcement and first trailer, the latter of which effectively broke the Internet. With the release of the trailer, fans of the post-apocalyptic franchise no longer have to live in a world where Fallout 4 is an uncertainty....
Sadly, there’s still some time to go before Fallout fans will be able to get their hands on Fallout 4, although Bethesda says that the game is basically finished and ready to go, it doesn’t officially release until November. A worthy substitute, however, is free to play mobile game Fallout Shelter. Fallout Shelter is a bit like a pared down version of Fallout 4’s base system crossed with Tiny Tower, as it allows players to run their very own Vault-Tec Vaults....
Far Cry 6 continues a recent series tradition by allowing you to recruit a variety of animal companions that are more than ready to fight by your side (this time, the animals are referred to as “Amigos”). While it’s easy enough to play Far Cry 6 and find most of the available Amigos without going too far out of your way, a few of the game’s Amigos are shockingly difficult to find and unlock....
Destiny’s Iron Banner tournament is set to return soon, and Bungie is promising would-be Guardians new weapons, as well as better drop rates for goodies. Later today, Destiny’s Iron Banner tournament goes live once more, and, in order to promote its resurgence, Bungie has revealed a machine gun and a hand cannon — an updated version of Timur’s Lash with an Iron Banner logo painted on the side — for those who reach Rank 5 in the event....
At the tail end of an already exhilarating E3 press conference, EA gave the floor to subsidiary developer DICE to announce something many fans were looking forward to for years: a new Mirror’s Edge game, one that would be a complete overhaul with an origin story of the protagonist, Faith Connors. Before the announcement, fans were hopeful at best despite several leaks from retailers, and EA itself. After the major label put minds at ease with a teaser trailer that appears very true to the feel of the original 2008 cult classic, executive producer Patrick Bach explains why now is the best time for a franchise reboot....
This Star Trek: Discovery article contains spoilers for Season 3, Episode 2. Other than Deep Space Nine and elements of Enterprise Season 3, the Star Trek series that cracked serialized storytelling for the Final Frontier was Star Trek: Discovery. And as anyone who has watched TV since 2003 can tell you: season-long mysteries often work best when they’re not actually what you thought they were. In Discovery Season 1, two major twists hinged on secret identities, a concept which was semi-repeated in Season 2 when guessing the identity of “the Red Angel” became the focus of nearly every episode....
A bogus Minecraft 2 has appeared on iOS, and fans are discovering the purported sequel is a rip-off made to mislead gamers, leaving Mojang to scramble to have the game pulled. When iOS gamers hopped onto Apple’s top selling list to peruse potential new purchases, one game managed to raise a few eyebrows: Minecraft: Pocket Edition 2. The “sequel,” released on December 21st, quickly climbed the charts and became the fourth best selling title for the service....
Unfortunately, it seems like Activision Blizzard may not have the most exciting year ahead of it for new releases, at least as far as Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 are concerned. Though fans are extremely eager to see what Activision Blizzard has in store for its hero shooter sequel, it seems like Overwatch 2 is still far from release. The news comes straight from Activision Blizzard, but was relayed by games journalist and Game Awards host Geoff Keighley....
Solas is the hottest topic in the Dragon Age fandom, and in the world of Thedas itself. At the end of Dragon Age Inquisition, it is revealed that he is the Dread Wolf and it very likely to be enemy number one in the next game. In the Trespasser DLC, players’ Inquisitors got to have one last chat with Solas. In that conversation, you can make the choice to either try to change his mind about destroying Thedas or to take him down....
Dragon Age 4 is set to pick up the story of Solas the Dread Wolf as he plans to bring down the Veil between the Fade, the realm of magic, and Thedas, the main setting of the Dragon Age games. Despite this focus on the elves, however, the game will likely take players to the Tevinter Imperium as its main setting, the oldest human kingdom in Thedas. The humans of Thedas have a long and fascinating history that’s primed to come to a head in Dragon Age 4....
If you’ve chosen to go rogue in Dragon Age: Inquisition, literally picking the rogue class for your Inquisitor, there are three different rogue specializations that become available later in the game. Once you have reached Skyhold, a new war table operation will appear called “Specializations for the Inquisitor.” Completing this operation will invite three trainers to Skyhold, each of which is prepared to teach you their individual specialization should you complete their quest....
Toei didn’t do a perfect job adapting Dragon Ball into an anime, but that doesn’t mean their adaptations didn’t improve upon Akira Toriyama’s source material every now & again. Both Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z craft their own identities independent of the manga with action that’s tailored to the anime medium. There’s a reason most fans are only familiar with Dragon Ball through the anime and still love the series: it’s a fantastic adaptation, warts & all....
Fallout 4 launched five years ago and fans of the series have maintained drastically different perspectives on whether or not it’s worthy of the series’ iconic name ever since. Amid plenty of polarizing opinions about the game, one person recently decided to have a couple of drinks and offer their honest verdict. The review was recently published on Reddit, and is titled, “Drunk 21 year old reviews Fallout 4.” In many ways, it’s a pretty standard review, separating the game into its best and worst parts and judging it accordingly....

D&D is filled to the brim with countless unique spells that can provide potent and exciting abilities both in and out of combat, doing anything from helping a party quickly travel or hide to dealing absurd amounts of damage. Although there are several classes in D&D that are capable of casting spells, each class has access to differing spell lists that determine what type of magic they can utilize....
