The Mandalorian: Chapter 6 Review
The Mandalorian: Chapter 6 Review
If The Mandalorian can’t just hide quietly from his past and his troubles, he has to turn back to his past in order to protect his future. The problem is that he hasn’t always run with the most reputable crew. So when you’re a mercenary for hire, you’re dealing with other mercenaries. We saw how that turned out when dealing with an aspiring bounty hunter last week. This week, Mando has to reunite…

PlayStation's MLB: The Show Franchise to go Multi-Platform
PlayStation’s MLB: The Show Franchise to go Multi-Platform
Baseball has been without a major multi-platform game since 2K pulled the plug on the franchise after their 2013 game. Since then, baseball games have been limited to the PC management simulator Out Of The Park Baseball, MLB Advanced Media’s in-house developed RBI Baseball and the PlayStation-exclusive MLB: The Show.
That is soon to change. No, a new player isn’t entering the space but one is…

The Mandalorian: Chapter 5 Review
The Mandalorian: Chapter 5 Review
Mando is back on the run. Just when he thought he found safe haven, it turns out that he still has to worry about trouble from the Bounty Hunters’ Guild. Even running to a familiar rock where the Bounty Hunters’ Guild and the criminal underworld is non-existent doesn’t mean that Mando is safe.

The Revenue and Cost of Games vs. Movies [Infographic]
The Revenue and Cost of Games vs. Movies [Infographic]
Analysts and columnists love talking about the spiraling costs of video games. Obviously, video games are getting more expensive over time since the likes of Space Invaders was made by less than two-dozen people while Red Dead Redemption 2 had a staff of over 170 times that of Space Invaders.
However, it’s also not like they can’t afford the costs. The video games industry is worth over $135…

The Mandalorian: Chapter 4 Review
The Mandalorian: Chapter 4 Review
Bounty hunting is a complicated profession. Don’t you agree? Complicated is definitely how I would describe the life of The Mandalorian after being sent on his most recent job. Now on the run, I don’t blame him for looking for the simple life away from prying eyes so he and his boy can fly under the radar of anyone trying to cash in on the bounty on them.

The Outer Worlds Speedrun Record Already Set at 11 Minutes
The Outer Worlds Speedrun Record Already Set at 11 Minutes
The Outer Worlds hasn’t been out for about a month but it already has an impressive speedrun record. According to HowLongToBeat, the average time to play the game is about 12 hours. If you want to beat it with some sidequests, that playtime crawls up to closer to 22 hours. If you want to play it fast? That will win you less than 2% of the run time at 10 minutes and 49 seconds. That was the case…

The Mandalorian: Chapter 3 Review
The Mandalorian: Chapter 3 Review
Given the negativity that has plagued Star Wars since December 2017, it’s very refreshing to see how much praise that The Mandalorian is getting. With every episode, we’re getting converted (or re-converted) fans, praise for The Mandalorian being the best of Star Wars and declarations that each episode of The Mandalorian is the best one yet. We’re only three episodes into the first season of The…

Valve Unveils Half-Life: Alyx VR Game

PlayStation 5 Controller Revealed in Japanese Patent
PlayStation 5 Controller Revealed in Japanese Patent
One of the forgotten storylines from the current console generation was how fondly received the PlayStation 4’s controller was relative to the PS3’s DualShock 3 and the Xbox One’s effort. Sony has a big task to follow-up on their leading console controller. To do so, they’ve decided to refine rather than revolutionize with their PlayStation 5 controller.

The Mandalorian: Chapter 2 Review
The Mandalorian: Chapter 2 Review
The response to The Mandalorian has been overwhelmingly positive. While that’s not a huge surprise for the Disney era of Star Wars, the fact that we’ve gone a week without backlash whiplash is the surprising part. It didn’t take long for people to sour on most things Star Wars since the Mouse bought out George. After all, people eventually soured on The Force Awakens. It didn’t take long for…

The Mandalorian: Chapter 1 Review
Back in 2005, George Lucas floated the idea that Star Wars would be coming to TV as a live-action series. Production on Revenge of the Sith was wrapping up and during his Star Wars Celebration III appearance, George talked about a TV series being part of the future of Star Wars. Over the next years, that idea became Star Wars: Underworld but never actually saw the light of day. Despite having…
