We’re taking the hobbits to Isengard — My return to Middle-Earth: Shadow of War

I absolutely loved Shadow of War, at least until I hit the microtransaction-laden Act 4 slog to try to eke out the “true ending”. In my review I suggested people simply hit YouTube to watch the video of that ending, sparing themselves the aggravation. Fast forward from October 2017 to

Hurkamania runs wild — Far Cry 5: Lost on Mars DLC review

I really enjoyed Far Cry 5, and said as much in my review. One of the best parts of the game was the crazy cast of characters, with two ready standouts — “Dangerously Stupid” Hurk Drubman Jr. and crazy crop duster Nick Rye. Well, through reasons best revealed through the expertly

Seagate adds BarraCuda SSD to its fleet of drives

BarraCuda?  Now there’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time…a long time.  Joking aside, some of my first real powerhouse gaming PC builds sported 10,000 rpm BarraCuda drives, back when rotational speed and reliability meant more than anything else.  Putting a pair of those

Gaming Trend’s Best of E3 2018 Winners

The E3 2018 team saw some amazing games this year, and we came away impressed with where the industry is carrying our favorite hobby.  Some games stood out above the others, though, and we’d like to recognize those titles that wowed us the most.  Without further ado, check out

Another impossible port — Wolfenstein II: The New Order on Nintendo Switch

If, a year ago, you told me that Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus would end up on Nintendo’s flagship console, I’d have had to laugh. Rather than retread all the ways that this game improves on its predecessor (and boy howdy does it — our editor Travis Northup gave
