Finding the Stars: A Review of the Starfinder RPG
Pathfinder is one of my favorite tabletop RPGs. It has a really rich and deep setting with tons of evolving content and options for building your games. Paizo, the publisher, does a really good job with it. I’m also a huge Star Trek fan, so when I found out Paizo was making “Pathfinder in Space” I immediately pre-ordered everything that was available. I pulled together a group of friends and scheduled our first game of
OVERWATCH LEAGUE Grand Finals to be held in Brooklyn
A historic champion—the first in Overwatch League history— Will be crowned in front of a global audience over July 27–28 Tickets to the two-day celebration go on sale May 18 via Ticketmaster The Grand Finals for the inaugural season of the Overwatch League, which will determine the champions of the world’s first global city-based esports league, will be held at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, over July 27–28, 2018. Following the end of the Overwatch League regular season
Efficacy of Exclusivity in Gaming
Why in the actual heck are exclusive titles still being released in the gaming world? Having exclusive titles is not a new concept, but it is, in many ways, quite archaic. It made sense in 1997 when development studios on opposite sides of the world had limited means of communication or collaboration and no simple method of porting their games across platforms, but it’s now twenty-freaking-eighteen. If you can find hacked ports and emulators on
Overwatch Anniversary
As we all know, time flies when you're playing your favorite video games. But, did you know it's already been almost two years since our beloved Overwatch was first released?! That's right. The two-year anniversary of Overwatch is coming up and Blizzard has already taken to the streets to announce their "Overwatch Anniversary" special, which will run from May 22 to June 11. Much like last years event, the Overwatch Anniversary will come with some
Gaming in a Galaxy Far Far Away
There's no doubt that the potential for content and development for Star Wars is at an all-time high. With new movie, TV, book, cartoon, and comic announcements being released every other day, the currently known number of games forecasted in this vast universe seems a bit underwhelming. Let’s take a look at what we do know and maybe speculate a bit about what we don’t. Aside from the continuation of Lego and The Old Republic Online,
A Friend In Need… Of A Little Ambition | Kirby Star Allies Review
So, this is Kirby, but I’m sure you already knew that. The repeat savior of Dreamland with an insatiable appetite has been around for years, traveling on adventures through different worlds and across genres, from action platformers to high-speed racing to endless rollers. Regardless of play style, the Kirby series prides itself on simple and straightforward gameplay with an “easy to play, difficult to master” philosophy. I’ve personally always been a Kirby fan since the
Investigating IGN’s Top 100 Games of All Time
Recently, IGN released their Top 100 Video Games of All Time list. Given that IGN is widely considered an authority, if not THE authority, on the subject of video games, I’d like to take a closer look. I won’t be picking apart the list or countering their opinions with my own, rather, I’m going to dive in and search for any correlations between the games and what lends to their success. First off, let me
Mercy | Overwatch’s Hero In Pink
We've seen a lot of amazing special events come out of the world of Overwatch, but I have to say... our Blizzard developers truly outdid themselves this time. After partnering with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Blizzard has introduced a new 'Pink Mercy' skin that will be available for purchase from now until May 21, and 100% of the proceeds will go towards funding breast cancer research! As we all know, Dr. Angela Ziegler, who we
Beat Saber | Early Access Impressions
As a fairly casual Star Wars fan, I've always loved the idea of the lightsaber, a beam of pure plasma energy capable of cutting through almost anything. At the same time, I've always felt something vital was missing from the series. All this time and it took until 2018 for someone to finally ask the question we've all been wondering. What if, instead of fighting each other head-on, the Sith Lords and Jedi Masters settled
