An overall score of 85 ain't bad if we're talking games like Fallout 4 or maybe Modern Warefare, but South Park The Stick of Truth is a masterpiece, fan of the show or not. It's one of the best of its genre - something that is on the level of games like Skyrim, Mass Effect 2 and Witche

Because it was the last great one that actually brought something new to the table and for a long time the last Madden to be playable on PC. So While we promised no other sports games, we're going to have to break that to chastise critics for continually praising the series past this po

Microsoft's premiere RPG franchise is Fable , with the first three Fable games all launching to various degrees of success. But despite their popularity, Microsoft has squandered the IP in recent years, releasing misguided spin-offs instead of proper sequels. However, rumors indicate that the Fable franchise will soon be coming back in a big way on Xbox Series X. According to various reports, Fable 4 is in active development at Playground Games , with the game set to be a major return to form for the series. There's a chance that Fable 4 could even be revealed as early as next month's Xbox 20/20 July presentation, so fans of the franchise should be sure to tune in just in c

The game might lose its steam in the latter half, but players who blast through the campaign will find themselves enjoying the title's strengths. As long as the game doesn't feel too grindy and repetitive, players will have an amazing time with Dying Lig

An ambitious, inventive genre that traces its origins to the early days of text-based adventures like Zork and Microsoft Adventure , open-world gaming has become one of The Black Forest arc most prevalent genres in all of gaming. Covering all sorts of genres and niches and giving birth to some of the most important games of this generation, open-world gaming usually allows for dozens—if not hundreds—of hours of playt

However, perhaps the most interesting portrayal of morality – one that Fable should take notes from – is that found in The Witcher 3. Choices in The Witcher 3 have real weight, in part thanks to how well the game portrays its world as being "lived-in." That manifests itself in many different ways, and on a surface level may not even look like a morality system. Geralt is, after all, a hero, but with his decisions determining who lives, who dies, and, in some cases, the well-being of entire cities, it's hard to deny the state of the world at the end of the game as a sort of morality system for Ger

Kings of Lorn: The Fall of Ebris developer TeamKill Media has announced its upcoming first-person shooter and horror hybrid , Quantum Error . The announcement trailer doesn't reveal too much about the game; however, i it takes place on Earth in the year 2109 during some sort of invasion by zombie-like creatures. Quantum Error has been confirmed for both PS4 and PS5, with no word on a release win

Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge is one of the most highly-regarded original Xbox exclusives, offering impressive visuals, a compelling single-player campaign, and a multiplayer mode that was one of the first games to really take advantage of Xbox Live's online multiplayer capabilities. Unfortunately, it's been 17 years since the launch of Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge , and besides the game being playable on Xbox One through the Xbox backward compatibility program , it hasn't received much attention from Microsoft. Needless to say, many fans would be happy to see a next-gen take on Crimson Skies that could take advantage of modern graphics and gameplay featu

The shift between video game morality when the first Fable game released — all the way back in September 2004 — and now has been massive. Fable helped lay the foundation for morality as a central factor in games, and watching a character slowly grow horns as they fall further into evil is still neat, but it has far less weight than what fans expect to see

And the funny part is you, and even the Fifa community know this, awarding the game a 1.7 score on Metacritic. Maybe it doesn't deserve to be that low (or maybe it does) but it's sickening to see the critic score of

During Bethesda's E3 presentation last year, The Evil Within and The Evil Within 2 developer Tango Gameworks revealed that it was working on a new survival-horror game, Ghostwire: Tokyo. Not a lot is currently known about Ghostwire: Tokyo , only that it's not a traditional horror game, but an action-adventure where players will need to rid the city of Tokyo of paranormal enemies and supernatural evil. Given that no release window or platforms were announced, it seems safe to say Ghostwire: Tokyo is eyeing the next-generation consoles, although this is currently speculat

Today, several games were shown during Microsoft's Inside Xbox event, the first of a series of events that are being planned over the next few months. With a first-party event planned for July, the focus was on third-party games coming to Xbox Series X, and while the Assassin's Creed: Valhalla "gameplay" reveal was the star attraction, there was a surprising number of next-gen horror games featured in the showc
