OMGZ SONY JUST WO– …Oops, I’m getting ahead of myself here, aren’t I? It’s no secret among any of us here that Sony and their Playstation brand of products are a critical and public darling of E3 every year. Whether it’s through cleverly timed positioning that sees them finally getting...

When our Editor-in-Chief is not waddling around behind the scenes of the InfernalPenguin Base, ExpertPenguin can usually be found obsessing over everything we cover here, with a special penchant (read: lifelong love) for the gaming industry in particular. The enigmatic name alluding to more than just a overblown obsession with birds, he's been known to throw around strong opinions like bricks while chewing through news and software as enthusiastically as the days when Gamepro still arrived in his mailbox. Sega Visions, too. Oh, and Gamefan, Expert Gamer, OXM, OPM, Next Generation, Play Magazine...
E3 2016 for many starts tomorrow, but a couple of companies like Bethesda and Nintendo, they prefer to have their own show, with their own time reserved to show off all of the new, corporate driven (cough cough) software that’ll either be released later this year.. ..OR in the years...
The time is almost upon us. In a few, (though not for the first time due to leaked trailers no less than 12 hours ago) Ubisoft will be livestreaming a preview of Watch_Dogs 2, the unexpected, yet unsurprising next entry in their collection of open-world sandbox games. Watch_Dogs has a...
Meet Lúcio, my new surrogate, Overwatch main, and your new best friend.

Somewhere inbetween hearing Will Stamper announce the arrival of my new voicemails, and humming “Buckle Your Pants” (One of the catchiest songs you’ll ever hear in an ending sequence) intermittently.I found myself unconsciously, and yet subconsciously anticipating the next announcement from indie developer The Behemoth. This is considering of course,...
One of the finest examples of humble beginnings, the horror juggernaut that is the Resident Evil series had a rocky, if innovative start. While the game was praised for its mainstreaming of the classic Alone in the Dark horror mold, amidst the air of suspense and terror the game nimbly sit...
The setting is as familiar as they are foreign. Gorgeous architecture, married with incredible technology. An underwater utopia, in ruin. An affluent populace, turned transient. Children, turned from innocence into anything but. As you approach one of them, an odd mehanical whirring fills the hall. What would be a welcome...
…The worst part is, they probably don’t care. In an all too expedient internet culture where players, developers, and journalists alike are getting that much closer to each other via social media and company outreach, Nintendo may have just made their biggest mistake in pushing the loyalty of one of...
What happens when you believe so steadfastly in your own legend that it becomes your reality? Such is the question posed for Michael Keaton Riggan Thomson, as he ponders the aftereffects of a meteoric rise portraying Batman Birdman, just how, after a plummeted career and a world of burned bridges...
