The Video Game Sequel To One Of The Best Action Movies Ever Is On Sale For $2
22.8.2024
Hard Boiled, the 1992 film from legendary director John Woo, is probably the best action movie ever made. What you might not know is that it has a sequel, but it isn’t a movie. In 2007, developer Midway and Woo released Stranglehold, an action video game that transfers the director’s signature...
Black Myth: Wukong Sounds Like A Pretty, But Repetitive And Buggy, Action Game
16.8.2024
Four years after it was announced, Black Myth: Wukong is finally in the hands of critics who have reviewed the third-person action RPG ahead of its August 20 release. The general consensus seems to be that while the upcoming game looks great and has some cool boss designs, it’s buggy, too easy,...

This Time-Hopping Action Game Brings A Grenade Launcher To A Sword Fight
21.2.2024
Do you know why Army of Darkness rules? Chief among the countless reasons I can think of is that Ash retains his boomstick even though he’s been displaced out of time. Everyone around him is doing battle against the forces of evil with swords and bows, while he’s lighting demons up with...

Crash Team Rumble Hands-On: A Surprisingly Great Action Game
12.6.2023
Crash Team Rumble is probably not the Crash game you want. It’s not a platformer, it’s not even a kart racing game, it’s a team-based multiplayer game that’s structurally comparable to a MOBA. That label may scare some people off, but after playing a few rounds of it at Summer Game Fest, it’s clear...

21.11.2022
Depending on how old you are, you might remember the concept of “The Weekend Game,” as in the title you rented or borrowed from a friend and beat in like 2 or 3 sittings between Friday and Sunday. And that was it. Maybe you replay a few levels to grab some collectibles, but nothing more than that....
This New Fantasy Action Game's Story Is As Great As Its Gameplay
7.10.2022
In the midst of the fall gaming season, it’s very easy to lose track of games that aren’t the new hotness from big-name studios or that haven’t received enough advertising to catch one’s attention. Despite this reality, one dark action-adventure game managed to not only capture my attention...

Capcom's Cool New Action Game Pits Exosuits Against Endless Dinos
9.3.2022
During today’s State of Play, Capcom came through with a surprising reveal for a brand-new IP about exosuit-wearing marines fighting hordes of dinosaurs. It’s called Exoprimal, which is the most video-game name I’ve heard in a long while. More than that, though, it gives me some serious Anthem...
This Lightning-Fast Action Game Is Like A Cyberpunk Tomb Raider With Warframe's Swordplay
22.11.2021
Bright Memory Infinite is an ambitious first-person shooter action game that fuses the futuristic samurai combat of something like Warframe with the epic adventure and platforming of games like Tomb Raider. But while FYQD-Studio’s game is an improvement upon its 2020 build, Bright Memory, there...
Action Game Shows BOTW Up, Has A Great Weapon Durability System
20.9.2021
Weapon durability in video games carries a semblance of realism, illustrating that nothing lasts forever no matter how well it’s built. Still, having my shiny new sword break in something like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is some bullshit. It not only disrupts game flow when I’m pulling...

It’s officially E3 season. Between the marquee E3 pressers (Microsoft, Square Enix, Ubisoft, et cetera) and individual events from publishers gone E3-rogue (what’s up, Sony?), you can catch a handful of events focusing on smaller games. The first of those, at least per the calendar, is...

14.12.2020
