At Bethesda’s E3 conference tonight, the Maryland publisher and developer announced a new DLC platform for two of their most successful games, Skyrim and Fallout 4. “Creation Club” will combine proprietary content with community-created mods, all of which can be purchased with “credits,” a nebulous currency whose nature Bethesda did not elaborate on.

At GDC 2017, I sat down with Snake Pass creator Seb Liese to discuss the game, which just came out yesterday.

Snake Pass Review (PC)
Snake Pass came along at the perfect time in my life. This week, I’ve been ripping and tearing through my third playthrough of DOOM (2016) in an effort to find every single secret in the game. iD’s masterpiece is of course bombastic, barbaric, and most of all metal: Snake Pass is none of these things.Continue reading “Snake Pass Review (PC)”

“Prey,” Arkane Studios’ upcoming first-person shooter published by Bethesda, created quite a buzz at E3 with a mysterious and eerily beautiful trailer. Since then, there’s been an abundance gameplay footage, which often left us with even more questions than answers.

Our Game of the Year for 2016: DOOM
2016 was unusually contentious among the Gamer Professionals staff when it came to deciding our Game of the Year. Nearly every person had a different pick: only DOOM was nominated more than once.

World of Warcraft: Legion Review
Every time Blizzard releases a new expansion for World of Warcraft, the same old questions and theories make their rounds on the internet like clockwork. The most common, and dare I say the most ignorant of these is: “will X expansion save WoW?” I’ve always hated this question, not because I’m a fanboy (I am)Continue reading “World of Warcraft: Legion Review”
Ana’s a Blast; Competitive Overwatch Still Irritating
One of the most impressive things about Overwatch is how Blizzard has handled support play. Gliding around the battlefield as Mercy is anything but boring, especially when you pull off a massive resurrection and turn the tide of battle. Luring your less-than-observant opponents into a turret infested trap room as Symmetra never gets old either.Continue reading “Ana’s a Blast; Competitive Overwatch Still Irritating”
Corroded Civilizations: Gaming’s Fixation on Decay
Yesterday morning, as I watched the E3 stream of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, déjà vu simmered in my head. Here, yet again, our intrepid hero makes his way through a dying civilization, a young Link exploring a Hyrule whose denizens have all but forgotten the glory of eons past. He willContinue reading “Corroded Civilizations: Gaming’s Fixation on Decay”
