Hello, Updates for you.
 

Is The Bioware We Knew Dead?

There has been a lack of quality coming out of Bioware. After the failure of the recent new Dragons Age. The fact it had an identity issue and didn’t resonate with the majority of it’s core fandom. It’s back to the drawing board for Bioware, and I personally believe that EA going forward is going to be playing it safe with the majority of its franchises. Read More

We’re a Business, Your The Product

Manchester United are not where we want them to be as a fanbase. Yet some are treating it like we have a divine right to be successful. We want success so badly, and we’ve been starved so long that we’re forgetting where we are and that it’s going to be a sprint, not a marathon, with the resources we actually have due to the absolute appalling way the Glazers have mishandled and treated us like a business with no regard to the traditions and standards that were set prior to them.

Why Remakes Have Ruled

Remakes have ruled this generation for a reason. Would you like to know why? Because remakes are not only a guaranteed sure-fire hit in an industry where costs are spiralling on new games and they’re too much of a risk to take a chance on when it comes to new IP. We know that stifles creativity. However, this generation’s remakes have had a great level of success because publishers know that you’re going to buy them. Read More

Xbox Shines This Year

What did we learn from the developer direct from Xbox? Well, they’re going to have a lot of games this year. All their studio work has finally led to this moment. It’s been the culmination of years of work at Xbox Studios. It was a great presentation. Overall, I really enjoyed what I saw there because it had something for everyone. For me, South of Midnight is something I’ll be playing day one on Game Pass. Read More

Getting Back on Track

We can all talk about how badly the live service stuff at PlayStation has been. However, I would rather focus on the positives and Sony actually getting back on track with everything. Ultimately, the PS6 is on its way. This year is the start of PlayStation exclusives coming back in a consistent manner. And while we can all have a go at how badly this generation has been handled. It’s been an industry-wide problem. Read More

Our Focus

Manchester United have a tough game today against Brighton. Granted, we’re at home. However, I do not think that counts for anything these days going on past inconsistences. However, when you have an absolute gem in Amad. Let’s be honest with ourselves. He’s everything that a Manchester United player should work to be. He’s worked hard; he shows that on the pitch, and he’s even proved a few doubters wrong as well. Read More

Not Reinventing The Wheel

As expected, the Nintendo Switch 2 has been revealed. We now know what the hardware looks like and that the next Mario Kart is a launch title. There is an April Nintendo Direct where I expect a host of software to be on show for the first real push in the new generation. I think we’re also going to see pricing and that all-important release date. Read More

Nintendo Switch 2 Software Possibilities

The Nintendo Switch 2 hardware reveal is rumoured to be sometime this week. That’s the word coming from numerous sources. What we know is that it’s becoming more apparent that something is happening at Nintendo HQ; they’re getting ready to reveal the hardware. We know the software part is going to be something entirely separate, which leads me to believe it’s going to be something substantial. Read More

Everything is An Xbox

We all know that PlayStation and Xbox are not directly competing in the way everyone expects them to anymore. Microsoft is bringing a lot of it’s content over to the PS5. That’s going to continue; not only that, but we’re going to see them competing in a different way in a few years time. Nintendo may become the one that Sony sees as direct competition. Read More

It’s Heating Up

The PlayStation Portal is getting people ready for the next native PlayStation handheld. Not only was it a device that’s been a big success. It allowed Sony to dip its feet back into unknown waters where its Japanese counterpart is having more success. It’s the success they’ve wanted, especially in Japan. It means that it provides a platform for them to really set their sights on the native version. Read More

Back To the Future Nintendo

We’re witnessing the calm before the storm. Nintendo leaks are burning like a wildfire. Hey, everyone that’s asking for Nintendo to reveal the Switch 2 right now. We all know Nintendo is like that grumpy old, stubborn granddad that we all have who is frequently annoyed at any whiff of something being slightly out of line with their wishes. Also, that’s before they take a drink. We won’t mention that, though. Read More

Make Or Break For Ubisoft?

Ubisoft is a publisher pretty close to my heart. I’ve always loved their games. Especially Assassin’s Creed. With the rumours swirling that Ubisoft could be bought out sometime down the line. Is the next Assassin’s Creed the one game they need to do incredibly well? I think it is. Read More
