Elden Ring trailer

Holy Shit, with the exception of some of the Nintendo trailers from E3, this one has me stunned in my steps. If Dark Souls, Lord of the Rings, and a cool anime were thrown into a blender and turned into a pretty badass looking epic. I’m definitely enthralled here and I can’t wait to see more. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Psychonaunts 2 announcement trailer

Psychonaunts is one of those bizarre games I have the utmost respect for because it was trying to be different and make an odd, zany world of its own. The legacy seems to have continued with the long awaited Psychonaunts 2 and I’m pretty damn excited. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Mass Effect Legendary Edition

Buy Mass Effect Legendary Edition from the Humble Store

So, me and Savior have waited ages for this special re-release and I’m thrilled to join Shepherd’s epic quest to defend the universe from the Reapers in this sprawling trilogy. In the past I covered Mass Effect , Mass Effect 2 , and Mass Effect 3 and I still stand by those reviews. For the Legendary Edition, I wanted to talk about my experience with the remasters.

Mass Effect feels the most different of the trilogy and honestly, that’s for the better. Combat is improved with the cover mechanics and combat feels closer to the other games. While still not as tight and overheating weapons get annoying, having a better cover and squad mechanics evens the feeling out. Another huge change is the Mako drives much better and feels a lot less like a chore than before. Overall, Mass Effect got an overall upgrade but its not perfect.

Mass Effect 2 is still the best in the series in my opinion and besides the graphical upgrade, there isn’t much different but some censored content. Mainly the horrific imagery of Maelon’s work and the nudity of the romance scenes are pulled back. Besides that, still a fantastic sequel and game.

Mass Effect 3 is where I get pissed off, but not for the reasons you might think. I played the base, vanilla version of the game last generation and thought it was fair and enjoyable but damn their could’ve been more. Well, there was more- behind paid DLC. By more, I mean an epic shit ton. Huge chunks of lore were broken off from the game and sold seperately as well as a new teammate who adds immensely to the lore of the whole trilogy; in gameplay it adds up to about 6-8 additional hours of huge lore heavy content that clearly should’ve been in the main game but…money. I loved the content and enjoyed the full version of Mass Effect 3 than I did originally.

In the end, the trilogy is absolutely worth getting. I pumped a good 6 weeks into the trilogy and was never bored and as before, I can’t recommend it enough. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy reveal trailer

Oh dear…another Marvel cash grab. While I didn’t have much faith in the Avengers game, Guardians isn’t really filling me with much faith either. I got serious Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale series flashbacks here and the gameplay we got to see didn’t wow me what so ever. Hopefully I can be wrong, but time will tell. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Battlefield 2042 reveal trailer

Well folks, at least this isn’t a tired old WWII FPS but a pseudo futuristic FPS. Long ago, I adored the Battlefield series. Now I lost faith and interest and honestly I feel like 2042 looks too much like a C.O.D game from a few years back. I’m hoping, I really am, but those hopes are pretty slim. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora reveal trailer

So I find it super weird we got something about this game, something I didn’t know existed until E3 than that fabled Avatar 2 no one really gives a rat’s ass about anymore. Seriously, isn’t this series about a decade too late? Nothing about what I saw seemed great but the question is will the old fans still care after a decade of inactivity in the franchise? May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Metroid: Dread reveal trailer

First of all, I always had a high respect for the Metroid series, as a fan of the Prime games of yester-year. It’s extremely cool that not only is Samus returning but she’s returning with a classic 2-D adventure that seriously looks awesome. I’m glad to see this badass Nintendo icon returning, may the gaming god’s bring you glory.
