Like many gamers, I've hunted down every bit of Metro Exodus gameplay I could find. I reviewed both Metro 2033 Redux and Metro: Last Light Redux some time ago and I'm excited to check out the next…

In theory, Battlefield V sounds like a winning combination for a modern FPS. You’re taking the most destructive conflict in human history, giving it to a developer that specializes in creating games…

E3 may not have started proper, but we got our first hands-on opportunity with some new games thanks to EA Play. EA's event let us try out games like Battlefield V and Madden 2019 before the general…

With every evolution comes the death of potential. As a genre moves forward, ideas are left behind, forever tied to what came before. When FPS design shifted from DOOM's familiar hellscape to the…

There are a lot of games on the market right now that are based upon survival. An offshoot of those games has emerged, with several mods and titles focusing on "last-man-standing" gameplay elements.…

I was not a huge fan of DICE's first attempt at reviving Star Wars Battlefront. That game was both limited in scope and overcomplicated, a jumble of different modes that never came together despite…

Battlefield 1 was a revelation when it was first announced earlier this year. A modern-day AAA FPS title that is set before the year 2000? Inconceivable! Well, the inconceivable has finally launched…

Over the past few years, there's been something of a revival of the so-called 'retro shooter' with titles such as Shadow Warrior, DOOM, and Wolfenstein: The New Order. But I'll let you in on a little…

If you were to ask someone to describe the first World War to you, chances are that they will tell you that it was a horrible conflict where millions of soldiers died fighting for even the most…

Two years ago, the phrase "Standby for Titanfall" represented the dawn of a new age of first-person shooters. Most of us were familiar with FPS games like Halo, Call of Duty, and Battlefield, but…

Personally, I've always considered Iron Storm's cyberpunk epic Deus Ex to be the pinnacle of Western RPGs. It was a game that combined smart writing and a captivating story with pristine mechanics,…

The original Titanfall remains one of my favorite FPS games of the current generation. Respawn Entertainment created a fast paced game that is split evenly between the swift pilots and the lumbering…

I first played Overwatch a little over a year ago at PAX East. I've played hours and hours of it since then in various betas and named it my most anticipated game of the year. Overwatch's excellent…

2013's Shadow Warrior was a real treat. An FPS with speed and over the top gunplay to match its Build Engine inspiration, the game was fun but rooted in the past. Linear corridors shuffled you…

Toxikk's initial trailer promised a lot of bold things. A return to the form of the arena shooter genre with all the flair of a modern shooter. While I was excited, I was also reasonably skeptical.…

"Help me." comes through my headphones. It's a whisper somewhere near my left side. Spinning around, I only see my teammate, another player going by the name of Nightmare, covering me as we clear a…

Everyone knows that when a game is in Alpha or Beta, it isn't finished yet, and not ready for release. This past weekend's Destiny Alpha, however, felt nothing like the usual "buggy" and incohesive…

It's not every day you hear that a historical genre-defining game gets another chance to wow the masses. It has happened before, with disastrous and series-ending results, such as Duke Nukem's Duke…
