Last week, I had the good fortune to receive an invitation to the closed beta for “The Division 2” (not through Ubisoft by the way, I was randomly selected through other means). Having played around 5 hours with the beta, I decided to collect my thoughts and offer my opinion on the game; this is […]
Recently, I’ve been spending some time with two interesting and novel takes on ‘XCOM-like’ tactical, turn-based games: Mario+Rabbids, and Mutant: Year Zero. These games offer up intriguing changes and new takes on a genre that has seen its fair share of growth in the past couple of years, and wanted to give my two cents […]
During the pre-match press conference, the manager takes some questions from the journalists. Reporter A: There’s been some backlash over the past years, for the seeming disinterest from the club’s point of view, on how the team’s visuals are not up to par with the rest of the football world; how do you answer to […]
One of my most bitter disappointments of 2018 was not owning a PS4; not because I couldn’t play God Of War or Spiderman (although those are pretty rad games I would play had I owned the console), but because I couldn’t play Tetris Effect when it launched exclusively on PS4. It will probably come out […]
Day 1: Just shipwrecked on this isle. Found a few resources on the beach and then climbed this hill; found this weird lantern that uses unnatural energy orbs and open up pathways, while lighting my way, as I descent further and further into this cave…found a way back to the beach so I’m going to […]
2018 has been a year! We’ve been bombarded by sad stuff in most aspects of life; political, social, personal, economical, etc. While reality may not have been so great lately, games have always helped us escape that reality and deal with it a little bit better. This year, games thankfully have kept the great precedent […]
I was contemplating whether I should talk about ROTOD before next week’s end of the year article; I have not finished ROTOD yet, and there’s a chance I won’t finish it before that article, yet it is one of my favorite games of the year. So, I wrote an article for GRIS instead and was […]
For the last O.D. of the year, ROW checks out one of the standout games of the year for him: GRIS, from newly formed NOMADA studio, published by Devolver Digital. GRIS is just one of those games. An artistic vision that some people will just love its particular art style, story, and mechanics, which will […]
Featuring F.A.C. on 11-11: Memories Retold, The Shapeshifting Detective, and Thief of Thieves: Season One. For this week’s O.D. on Games, ROW will discuss three games he recently played in the ‘F.A.C. game reviews’ mold—F.A.C. standing for Fast And Concise—as the owls are hard at work trying to finish up loose ends before the end […]
A Wild West Story ROW: This week we’re talking about the story of RDR2 (no major discussion though, so you should be good in regards to spoilers) and the story missions; first though, we’re talking a bit about some of the systems we didn’t mention in the first part. ND: Specifically, we’re talking leveling up […]
