Summary We’re amid a full-blownHalf-Life 3hysteria as hopeful fans of the series cling to every shred of evidence that supports that the fabled game is in development atValve(again). There is another twist in the tale as file names identified in a recent data mine by reputable Valve leaker Tyler McVicker were recently changed by Valve, possibly to deflect suspicion about Half-Life 3. A file name referencing Gordon Freeman’s famous HEV suit was changed to ‘Burbank Suit’....

Summary Left 4 Dead 2is the best co-op game of all time. The Deep South setting and its cast of four leads are beautifully brought to life, before promptly being covered in the viscera of AI-driven zombie hordes chewed up with all manner of chunky guns, explosives, and melee weapons. I’ve been playing Left 4 Dead 2 since it first launched in 2009, almost 15 years ago. In that time it’s had its ups and downs, but, unfortunately, it’s entered a particularly dark point in its life....

We sawthe launch of Princess Peach: Showtimein the first half of the year, andthe June 18 Directoffered the first glimpse at the Zelda-helmedThe Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. Though we’ve technically been able to play as both princesses before - in Super Princess Peach for the Nintendo DS in 2005 and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon for the Philips CD-i in 1993 - these games offer a fresh take on what it means to be a princess now that gaming has mostly left the damsel in distress trope behind....

Big dragons like Vermithor, Silverwing and Seasmoke are finally being claimed after being riderless for years. These dragons are fighting for Rhaenyra and the Blacks and though they are bastards atop these beasts, they have Targaryen blood. The TV show seems to be going all out, and it’ll be interesting to see how they portray its future battles now that there are more dragons in the mix....

Five Nights At Freddy’s: Into The Pitisn’t about frolicking through sunny meadows; it’s more like a horror-themed rollercoaster where you’d rather be anywhere but in those creepy, dark places. It offers a dark environment and a frightening adventure with menacing animatronics on your tail.

Summary I’m struggling throughDragon Age: Inquisition.Again. I’m desperate to learn more about the Inquisitor, Solas, and the fate of Thedas beforeThe Veilguardlaunches later this year, but Inquisition is making it difficult. I bounced off its open-world design a couple of years ago, and I’m already threatening to do the same again. “Get out of the Hinterlands,” I was told. So I did. I went to the Storm Coast, which looked beautiful but ultimately had the same open world design philosophy as the Hinterlands....

I’ve been on a bit of a demo kick since this year’sSteamNext Fest. Every couple of months, Steam holds an event showcasing upcoming games – especially indies – that have demos you can play. And every time a Steam Next Fest comes around, I download way more demos than I can feasibly play in a week, and continue downloading demos for the next month or so with no regard for the concept of time....

Final Fantasy 7 Remakewas my second favorite game of 2020. That was the year thatThe Last of Us Part 2(an all-time favorite) released, so in most other years, it would have slashed its way to number one. As someone with no nostalgia for the original, beyond generalized nostalgia for the ’90s, that’s high praise. Final Fantasy 7 Remake was a really good game and, in the dog days of those first few Covid months, it was a welcome diversion from spending all my waking hours in my house....

Quick Links InTotal War: Pharaoh’sDynasties update, multiple new major factions are playable. Among them, Assyrian “King of the Universe” Ninurta-apal-Ekur is arguably the most brutal. To play as Assyria, to inhabit the role of Ninurta, is to set eyes upon the world and believe conquest to be mandatory. That’s not to say there’s no room for more delicate hands through diplomacy and other intrigues. Assyria’s army is only as strong as the player in charge of its generals....
