Below is what their time with Cloud gaming on iOS and PC has been like so far: Brad Bennett’s experience I was initially pretty hyped to get into the Xbox Cloud gaming demo. I love the concept of game streaming because I’m an impulsive person that doesn’t like to wait for downloads, and cloud gaming solves that problem for me. As a result, I’ve become a pretty big fan of the concept over the past year. However, since I’m also a pixel-peeping nerd, most current game streaming technolog...

Before that, Brad goes over some of the hottest news of the week, which in this case is, includes Bill C-10 and the Apple v. Epic trial. Once the news is taken care of, Brad bombards Patrick with every question he can think of about AirTags, including what are his favourite accessories are and how the Bluetooth tracking NFC tapping feature works. Once that conversation runs its course, the team talks about Samsung’s Galaxy Book Pro. While the laptop is pretty solid, it features a lot of unnec...

Loop Hero by Four Quarters Digital, and I can’t recommend it enough. The game is an impressive mix of genres, but the real magic is just how perfectly balanced the risk/reward mechanics are. But before I get into that, I’ll explain how the roguelike game works. For those who are unaware, roguelikes are a subgenre of role-playing games that often feature procedurally generated environments and permanent character death. The goal of Loop Hero is to last as long as possible as your character...

Devolver Digital Teases its E3 Plans, Says Nothing Else Devolver Digital announced that it has made its E3 plans. However, the company does not say anything else beyond that. Devolver Digital has announced that it has teased its E3 plans. The company simply just tweeted, “E3 plans have been made”, and left it at that. No other specific details about what kind of games or announcements have been mentioned. This tweet falls in line with Devolver Digital’s sarcastic tone and style, but hopef...

Devolver Digitals Loop Hero is described as an "endless" role-playing, roguelike, and deck-building game. The title doesnt explain its mechanics, so players discover them over time. So when it came time to promote this unusual game, Devolver Digital marketing manager Robbie Paterson found himself with a problem. How could he and the ad team tell customers what the game is when the game goes out of its way to not do that? "When we wanted to promote this game there was a real sense that we wante...

Lets go round again. Aaron Bayne Live, die, repeat. This isn’t just the tagline of a decent Tom Cruise flick. It’s a mantra donned by all those who ever pick up a video game controller. Repetition has forever been an indispensable element of video games. The perpetual process of finding the right moves to beat a boss, or the memorised routes needed to make it through an expansive level. Yet, after decades of looping our way to success, video games in 2021 are allowing that strand of DNA to ...

Let it go. 24 April 2021 Recently, I finally had an opportunity to play Sucker Punchs samurai epic Ghost of Tsushima, and its story of the Mongol invasion of Japan made me think about the way games treat revenge. At the heart of it, waging war is taking revenge, a form of payback for an injustice committed to you. By challenging the concept of bushido, the idea there is an honorable way to fight war, Ghost of Tsushima basically affirms that in order to get even wi...
