Running around at the speed of sound! The quality of The Blue Blur’s games might be hit or miss, but one thing that’s consistent with theSonic the Hedgehogseries is its outstanding music. Some of the bestSonicsongs excite us as blast through each stage at supersonic speed, battle bosses, and gaze at the wonderful visuals surrounding the hedgehog.

All three classes have their own strengths and weaknesses, so it’s important for you to pick a style that you’ll enjoy....

Pipe puzzler returns on PS4 and Switch One of the most amusing aspects of old-school game development is the WGAF? mentality when it came to naming video games. While today’s publishers pour hours and hours into titling their wares – wringing hands over the amount of words or letters used, and holding focus groups over where the chosen title plays in multiple territories – gaming’s formative publishers seemingly slapped a name on the design document, then broke for lunch....

Kira Miki would be proud Ever since I laid my eyes onVA-11 HALL-A, I fell in love with its bartending elements and characters.

It’s tempting,oh sotempting, to call it down the moment your Hellpod hits the dirt....

Sea of Thieveshas a penchant for being a bit cryptic about how things are handled: which is generally a boon for a “do what you want” style open world game! But since a lot of people are likely installing it for the first time in years today to partake inthe newPirates of the CaribbeanDLC, I figured it was the right time for a quick refresher on how to start quests....

She heralded a lore overhaul, too Blizzard took to the stage at this year’s BlizzCon to announce that Orphea, the Raven Lord’s daughter, was coming toHeroes of the Storm. ForHeroesplayers who even knowwho the Raven Lordis there was a mixed reaction. For everyone else, there were blank stares all-around. Such is the uphill battle that MOBA producers fight as they attempt to inject more lore into a combat-centric game. For what it’s worth I’m glad that Blizzard decided to try something new with Orphea, an original character, and I don’t mean that just in terms of the scope of theHeroes of the Stormdevelopment team....
