    Summer of Gaming (and Xbox's time to shine)!

    It's that time of year where summer kicks off and game companies are ready to show off the latest and greatest in gaming. And while E3 may be a distant memory (for now), Summer Game Fest and all of its individual publisher showcases are ready to take part of the festivities. But in particular, we look at the Xbox Showcase and see what they could possibly do to gain consumer trust back in the wake of their latest pitfalls with Redfall and the Activision-Blizzard deal. Could they bounce back in a big way with a bunch of their first party studios ready to showcase their games? We go in-depth with each studio and what they could offer...

    The Case For A Better Xbox?

    The Xbox brand has been hit hard the last couple of weeks between the CMA blocking the Activision Blizzard King acquisition and now with the underwhelming reviews given to the release of Redfall. It has created a situation where many media outlets and content creators are calling for Phil Spencer and team to be removed from running the brand. Are we really at that point for Microsoft to execute on a drastic measure like that? Or is this just a case to repivot and push the direction of Xbox differently? We discuss in great detail...

    Stop Preordering Games

    2023 has seen its share of big game releases so far, but it has also seen its fair share of bugs, glitches, and performance issues. Hogwarts Legacy, Wild Hearts, Wo-Long, Star Wars Jedi Survivor, and The Last of Us Part 1 have all fallen under these buckets of late. It is not a new issue if you've tracked the industry long enough (see Cyberpunk 2077 and Fallout 76 for prior examples), but it also speaks to an issue that we as consumers need to come to terms with when it comes to FOMO and wanting to be part of the real-time conversations. Let's discuss and hash it out!

    Sony Going Back To Handheld Gaming?

    The last handheld system that Sony had was the Vita, which died a quiet death a few years ago as Sony went full speed on their console support. Which is why it was curious to learn of rumors of Project Q-Lite, which supposedly is either Sony's new cloud gaming handheld or is a dedicated handheld for PS5 Remote Play. The latter seems odd considering many devices support Remote Play today, so why have a dedicated handheld for it? We chat that plus my thoughts on the Diablo 4 beta!

    E3 2023 Is Dead

    Since 1995, E3 has been a gaming staple to showcase the latest games coming out for consumers to enjoy and to also give publishers and developers a platform to strike deals for the upcoming releases. Over the last 5 years though, it has suffered an identity crisis trying to figure out its presence in a world where digital events can happen and other shows like PAX and Gamescom are managing the global hybrid world of digital and physical much better. That all came to a head this week when the ESA and ReedPop decided to cancel E3 2023 in light of fading interest in the event from publishers. Why did this happen? And what does that mean for the future - if any - of E3? Let's discuss...

    The Success of the Switch

    Nintendo Switch is on a warpath in sales as it was announced as end of September 30th that they have sold around 114 million devices.  An impressive feat that should be honored even as we call for Nintendo to upgrade its specs or start thinking about its new hardware in the midst of the launch of the Steam Deck and concerns expressed about performance and frame rates.  It does beg the question if they truly need to think about these things if the system continues to sell.  Let's discuss...

    Playing Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim in 2022

    I have never played Skyrim before until these last few weeks.  It was a game that came out during a time where gaming was less of a priority in my life.  Building a big sprawling world where you can be immersed it and see your character grow is not an easy game to make.  Bethesda has been kings at making these games for a long while and with Starfield presumably about to makes its debut sometime in 2023, I thought it would be a great idea to share my thoughts on this 11-year-old game as someone new to the franchise.

    The Fall of G4TV

    G4TV is gone....again.  Try as it might to stand out in a 2022 gaming media landscape, it eventually found itself competing with tons of gaming channels across the YouTube and Twitch platforms that consumers have been more drawn to during G4TV's original absence.  What was done wrong and who is to blame?  We deep dive into the fall of a cherished gaming network.
