Soccer and rocket cars– how could you possibly combine the two? One is fast-paced, the other slow and graceful. One high-octane and dangerous, the other meticulous and methodical. Well, Psyonix figured out how to do it, and in turn created one of the most wildly popular and entertaining party game to come out in recent years. And now it’s coming to Nintendo Switch.

E3 2017: Super Mario Odyssey shown off
Super Mario Odyssey was the star of Nintendo’s E3 Spotlight. The presentation displayed Mario playing his way through multiple levels, using his Ghost-possessed hat to control enemies, items, and strangely enough, a T-Rex. The reasoning for Odyssey’s title is that the Space Ship shown off in the Switch reveal trailer is in fact named Odyssey. Continue reading E3 2017: Super Mario Odyssey shown off

E3 2017: Shadow of the Colossus ‘Remake’ Announced
In a relatively out-of-left-field move, Sony announced that they are remaking Shadow of the Colossus for PS4. The PS2 classic originally released in 2005, was remasted on PS3 in 2011, and is widely regarded as one of the most influential of all time.

Destiny 2 shows off villain at Sony’s E3
Allow me to reacquaint you.
We only got about 2 minutes of Destiny 2, but it was enough to show off their certifiably bad-ass villain. He looks like a Cabal leader, classic warmonger, and will serve as a great antagonist for the story they are trying to tell. Continue reading Destiny 2 shows off villain at Sony’s E3
E3 2017: Sony shows off God Of War
God of War looked as stunning as it did when it was revealed last year. The story seems like a straightforward father and son story, but the circumstances around it is what makes it interesting. From the five or so minutes we did see, it looks like Kratos and his son can push forward a great story. Continue reading E3 2017: Sony shows off God Of War
E3 2017: Monster Hunter World comes to PS4 (and more)
The rumors surrounding Monster Hunter were confirmed at Sony’s E3 2017 press conference, which does not bode well for Capcom. Monster Hunter World is a console entry of the popular Japanese portable franchise, and it has been simplified in order to appeal to Western gamers. Stealth elements, lowered prep work, and QTEs have been added to the game, as well as big cinematic battles.
Essentially, it’s the antithesis of everything that made Monster Hunter popular. That’s an article for another time though, instead, check out this toned down, cinematic Monster Hunter gameplay:
Monster Hunter World is supposed to release in Early 2018 for PS4, XB1, and PC. No Nintendo Switch announcement as of yet.
It’s not really classic Monster Hunter, but it doesn’t look too bad. What do you think of this development? Do you think it has a chance to become a popular spinoff, or is Monster Hunter World doomed to be another under perfoming Capcom release?
