Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered (PC) – Review

Keiran McEwen — Mon, 17 Feb 2025 18:00:56 +0000

I’m glad everyone’s up to date on what is and isn’t Roman, so I don’t need to explain what IV, V, and VI are to Americans anymore. Continuing on from where Aspyr left off with the Tomb Raider remasters last year, we can once again jump, climb, and probably kill Lara in that poorly designed opener to The Angel of Darkness. This time (of course) we are focused on the original ending of Lara’s tale…

Alexx Aplin — Wed, 29 Jan 2025 18:00:28 +0000

2024 was the 25th anniversary of the release of the first Soul Reaver game. In celebration of this release, Aspyr released Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered. This also marks the first “new” release in the Legacy of Kain franchise after it went dormant in 2003 after the release of Legacy of Kain: Defiance, which merged the storyline arcs of the main series and the Soul Reaver series. As such…

Witchcraft and wizardry, that’s what is going on with the Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Starring Lara Croft. This collection retains what makes the Tomb Raider games the classics they are to the modernization of certain aspects without entirely sacrificing what made them great.

It’s been nearly two years since Epic Games revealed Unreal Engine 5, the next iteration of their popular game engine. Since then we’ve slowly seen more games announced as being worked on in the new engine. Additionally, early access was provided to developers last year. Now, Epic Games has announced what’s next during their State of Unreal 2022 broadcast. The biggest news and what many have…

Spider-Man Finally Coming to Marvel’s Avengers

Keiran McEwen — Fri, 05 Nov 2021 18:00:11 +0000

You know, it has been a while since I moaned about something in a news article that wasn’t our weekly Epic (or monthly Prime Gaming) piece. It feels like a good stretch after a long day, doesn’t it? It is easy to pick at Marvel’s Avengers from Square Enix, as it has had quite a lot of trouble since its release last year. When it was revealed at E3, it was promised not to have microtransactions…

Rise Of The Tomb Raider (Xbox One) – Review

Keiran McEwen — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 16:00:24 +0000

Right, let’s get this very straight: Mike and I are on opposite sides of the fence when it comes to Tomb Raider (2013). He reviewed it with the mindset of someone who enjoyed Uncharted, while I’d be removing Nathan Drake’s teeth from a wall like the cerebral cortex of Johnny from GTA V off of one of the protagonist‘s boots. In short, I hate Uncharted, and I don’t need Rhianna Pratchett’s bland…

Marvel’s Avengers (PC) Review

Mike Reitemeier — Tue, 08 Sep 2020 16:00:54 +0000

Editor’s Note: The developers have released a patch for Marvel’s Avengers and are working to fix bugs and crashes. See the patch notes here. After a delay and quite a lot of hype, we can finally play Marvel’s Avengers. I love character-action titles, and the prospect of playing as several famous superheroes, some of whom haven’t had proper video games like Iron Man and Black Widow…

Tomb Raider 2013 (PC) Review

Mike Reitemeier — Tue, 09 Jun 2020 20:00:32 +0000

When I worked at GameStop, I was running through the Uncharted series and my store manager urged me to play the newer Tomb Raider titles once I was done. Since then, Shadow of the Tomb Raider released and Tomb Raider (2013) was offered for free on Steam. To this, I say better late than never as it was nestled in my backlog for quite too long in 2020. My response after completing it is, “Boy…
