10 Best Dwayne The Rock Johnson Movies Ranked According To Metacritic

A lot can happen in the space of two decades. For example, someone could conceivably go from the most electrifying man in sports entertainment to a tooth fairy before eventually ending up as one of the most marketable performers in the world. Considering he made his Hollywood debut in a movie that saw the actor share his screentime with a CGI monstrosity called the Scorpion King, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has certainly done well for himself....

10 Hilarious Grand Theft Auto Logic Memes Everyone Can Relate To

In the world of gaming, the Grand Theft Auto series is the best one you’ll find if you like watching memes poking fun at the in-universe logic. Back when memes weren’t even a thing, people still made fun of the things we saw in this series, whose over-the-top presentation was deliberate by its developers. The funniest memes on the internet for GTA games are those that question its logic, and if you happen to be a fan of the series (and if you aren’t, then can you really call yourself a gamer?...

10 Of The Best Shoot Em Ups For The Xbox 360

The original Xbox failed to do as well in Japan as it did in North America. This was partially due to the library of games which consisted mostly of games with American sensibilities or Japanese games built more for a western audience. Microsoft knew that if they wanted to compete with Sony on their home turf, they would have to start bringing more Japanese oriented games to their next console....

10 Open World Games To Play If You Loved The Legend Of Zelda Breath Of The Wild

There was a time when open-world games — a term that used to evoke a sense of awe around a decade ago — had fallen into a rut of sorts. The same cycle of completing missions, ticking off checklists, and hunting down collectibles had become agonizingly repetitive. This is exactly why the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is considered by many to be one of the most important moments in gaming history....

10 Ps2 Games We Want On Ps4 Emulation

With Sony vowing to regularly release PS2 games on PS4, upscaled and with trophy support, Game Rant looks at 10 games we’d like to see get the emulation treatment. One of the biggest (and most popular) announcements of 2015 was Sony’s reveal that it would be bringing PS2 games to PS4, upscaled and with trophy support. The news was fantastic given just how many classic franchises and titles the PS2 introduced, but, with just a handful of games having been made available so far (such as Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and The Mark of Kri) there are still plenty of more that could get the emulation treatment....

10 Scariest Moments In Non Horror Games

While gaming’s biggest scares can be found in established horror franchises like Resident Evil and Silent Hill, there are plenty of non-horror games with moments that will send chills down players’ spines. Sometimes these games have some horror undertones to begin with, and other times they are games that are actually made with children in mind. Scary moments in non-horror games can sometimes be even scarier than horror games themselves, as they are often unexpected or stand at odds with the tone of the rest of the game....

10 Super Nintendo Games That Should Have Been Made On The N64

With one of the best libraries in the medium, the Super Nintendo is considered one of the best video game consoles of all time, it not the greatest. This was a console Nintendo actually ended up supporting into the 21st century, the last Super Famicom game surprisingly releasing in 2000. While such a dedicated approach to keeping the console alive helped ensure the SNES’ legacy, it also ended up hurting the Nintendo 64’s....

10 Things Loop Hero Does Different From Other Roguelikes

The newly released game Loop Hero made by Four Quarters and published by Devolver Digital is a surprise hit. Sure, they were expecting the game to do well, but it’s really blowing up in terms of copies sold. And, a major reason for that has to do with its unique approach to the roguelike format. With a new roguelike coming out what seems like every month, developers really have to put work in to separate their game from the rest of the pack....

10 Things That Make No Sense In Scarlet Nexus

Scarlet Nexus presents itself with an impressive amount of world-building. It’s been a while since Bandai Namco brought forth a new IP and hit it out of the park this much on a first try. The game does have problems that need to be addressed of course but overall reactions have been positive. Some of these issues stem from the gameplay and Scarlet Nexus’ story. There are inconsistencies with the game’s lore that certainly won’t ruin the experience, but they can be a bit bewildering if dwelled on....

10 Video Games Players Can Easily Put 100 Hours Into

With so many amazing games already available, and many more coming out regularly, it’s getting difficult to choose what to play. Some players prefer short games that they can finish quickly, others like to take their time and take on the longest games out there. And then there are those who switch between the two options, depending on the circumstances. The truth is that a lot of games can be finished under 30-40 hours of time - which will lead to a few days spent playing....

13 Hardest Achievements In Shadow Of The Tomb Raider

The brilliance of the game means that many fans aren’t satisfied with just playing through its story. They want to experience everything the title has to offer. One of those things is Xbox or Steam achievements. It has a solid list of achievements, and getting all 99 of them would be challenging for even the best Tomb Raider players....

Battlefield 3 Review

Fans of the series have waited over six years for Battlefield 3, the next installment in the core Battlefield series, the Bad Company titles notwithstanding. Like Battlefield 2, DICE’s first game to make use of the Frostbite 2 engine was designed for the PC first and foremost, with a somewhat scaled-down version coming to the consoles. After a problematic, yet very popular beta test, DICE promised to rectify the common issues and deliver a comprehensive first-person shooter experience, including a single-player campaign and a co-op mode to go along with the franchise’s flagship multiplayer offerings....

Blood Sport Kickstarter Suspended

That didn’t take long. Just days after the Blood Sport Kickstarter began to gain (unwanted) traction in the gaming media, the site has decided to suspend the game’s crowd funding campaign. Kickstarter did not provide a reason for the suspension, however, citing a “no comment” policy concerning such matters. For those who may not have heard of it, Blood Sport was an interactive experience meant to make the act of donating blood a little more competitive....

Grand Theft Auto Online Pc Mod Users Getting Banned

One of the most hotly anticipated features of the long-awaited PC version of Grand Theft Auto 5 looked set to be the potential for weird and wacky mods. However, it seems that the game might not offer quite as much flexibility in what user-generated content can be used. While Rockstar stated ahead of release that mods would be supported by Grand Theft Auto 5, that ethos seems to be wavering since the game launched two weeks ago....

Happy Wars Review

The free-to-play model has been gaining traction across the gaming landscape over the past few years. PC and, more recently, mobile gamers have been growing quite accustomed to tossing developers a few bucks here and there in exchange for a free game up front. Somewhat fashionably late to the party, the Xbox 360 has finally seen the release of its first free-to-play XBLA title, Happy Wars. Developer Toylogic Inc. has created a light-hearted battle arena game with enough depth to certainly keep players busy, but do some questionable progression and design choices keep it from being a worthwhile experience, even at zero dollars?...

Hitman Absolution Screenshots Are Downright Shocking

The last time we hunted down Agent 47, at PAX EAST, the perversely pious protagonist of Hitman: Absolution was donning the collar as he ransacked an enemy infested orphanage. Like a finely graded garrote wire, we couldn’t help but wrap ourselves around IO Interactive’s demonstration to try and squeeze out every last ounce of detail on the game’s multifaceted, highly stylized combat. Even though our preview concluded with an uncertain smell – the kind of smell we can never seem to Lysol out of our trunk after disposing an expired target – lingering over Hitman: Absolution’s enemy AI and the viability of Agent 47’s tactics, we sauntered away from the scene in quiet confidence, optimistic that the game would deliver on its lofty aspirations....
