Dark Souls III shouldn’t have an easier mode
Recently, Charlie shared his opinion about an easy mode for From Software’s Dark Souls III. In this he made some very good points, and some that were hard to argue with in terms of their overall reason and validity. However, this isn’t an opinion I personally agree on, and I feel that any form of easy, or easier mode for Dark Souls would be a bad thing. Now, I’m not going to simp...[Read More]
Is The Division worth the grind?
I am now close to having racked up a full week of play time in The Division. It’s not pretty, there have been countless nights which turned into early mornings as I farmed for that next piece of loot. A lot of blood, sweat, tears and carpal tunnel have gone into this game. But has it all been worth it? We are well and truly into deep end game territory, this is the endest of games, where eve...[Read More]

Fallout 4 receives mod tools on PC, coming to consoles over the next two months
Mods for Fallout 4 have been around on PC since pretty much immediately after it was released in November last year. But installing those mods can be a little cumbersome for the less technically minded gamers, requiring them to download the files from Nexus Mods and install them in the right folders in the hopes they integrate properly with their game and don’t break the whole thing. But fea...[Read More]
Telltale’s The Walking Dead: Season Three will be “checking in” with Clementine says Kirkman

Clementine has been the driving force of the game’s narrative since day one, what would the series be without her? WHO WILL MAKE US FEEL FEELINGS NOW?!” But don’t worry, at least she is guaranteed to make an appearance in...[Read More]
Steam now has movie rentals and in Australia it’s garbage because of course it is
Purchasing films on Steam isn’t exactly a new idea, as titles such as Indie Game: The Movie have been available on the platform for quite some time. There has also been several web series available, like Mortal Kombat: Legacy and the Payday series, along with various independent films. But mainstream Hollywood films? Nope, and no one would think that’s a good idea following the rise of...[Read More]

The Division: New glitch lets you dish out damage in the millions
I feel like we’ve been here before. We have been here before haven’t we? When we’ve discusses how broken The Division is? Yeah, we have. Here are just a few examples. A new glitch allows players to amass damage in the millions. Yeah, it’s just stupid. To get it to work players need a weapon with the competent talent on it. They then need to open their inventory and go into ...[Read More]
Dark Souls III should have an easier mode
Breathe deeply, hold in your “git guds” and “fuck yous” until the end of the article, for I know I’m treading on shaky shaky ground with this piece.
