When Insomniac Games announced that they had partnered with Marvel Games and PlayStation to develop an original AAA Spider-Man game it seemed too good to be true. Insomniac was often considered the dream team for a Spider-Man game due to their experience with movement and showcase of how good they could make it feel with their previous release, Sunset Overdr
Very few games have seen the critical praise that Red Dead Redemption 2 received just prior to its release in 2018. Once it was in the hands of players there was a strong divide between people who loved every moment of the lush and deep Open World Games Crafting Guide-world Western experience, and others who felt the controls and slow pace made it feel antiquated and unpolis
In a lot of ways, Uncle is a rather mysterious character. We know for a fact that the guy is very lazy, as well as annoying, but he must be good to have around if he’s allowed to follow the gang around. Is there a chance that he once was a great man, an outlaw that has turned old and quiet? Does he really have lumbago?! We know that we left Red Dead Redemption 2 wondering why Rockstar have decided that this is the character they want to follow throughout the entire franchise, but if they wanted to make a prequel about who this guy is and where he came from, we wouldn’t say no to giving it a
Is there anyone out there that has played Red Dead Redemption 2 but would choose to argue against the concept that Adler deserves her own game, that she is one of the greatest characters that Rockstar has ever created and therefore should get to star in a game of her own. We get to see her grow into something brilliant throughout the game, so it would be great to then see what becomes of her once the prequel game is over, especially as we don’t see anything of her during the first game in the series. What is it that this woman ends up doi
In the ten years that takes place between the prequel and the sequel, we want to see what sort of life the charismatic gang leader was living. Giving us a game where we get to finally play as this man would be interesting, perhaps forcing us to try and survive on our own before creating our own gang, working against a country that no longer wants us th
Resident Evil has long been home to many great villains. The likes of Albert Wesker and Jack Baker just to name a few, but Resident Evil 4 ’s king of the Las Plagas was special. Lord Osmund Saddler deceives his way into a cult following and forms a plan of world domination. To start this plan Saddler enlists the help of Jack Krauser, who is tasked with absconding with the President of the United States’ daughter. To make matters worse, once she is taken, Saddler infects her with the Las Plagas virus and plans to betray Krauser. This leads to an eventual winner-take-all collision course with Leon S. Kenn
Far Cry 3 introduced the world to one of the best villain performances ever. Insanity has never looked so good. Michael Mondo, the actor who portrayed Vaas, deserves an Oscar for the way he would change tones and start contradicting himself resulting in violent raging outbursts. This made his character feel so lifelike and real, and it made encounters extremely exciting. He really does appear to be a true Hollywood villain from a nightmare vacation to hell. Vaas Montenegro did not care for any living person, his life, or anything. It seems the only thing that mattered to him was pirate life and messing with other’s minds. The man is nothing but insane, and he prides himself on it. He will ask the definition of insanity, as if he’s not insane, all while sinking a man to the bottom of the sea with a cinder block tied to his f
That is because Simon Pearson is the chef for the Dutch van der Linde gang, and he became their chef after he was rescued from loan sharks. As someone who you can speak to in-camp, and someone who is part of missions such as the one where the camp ran out of food, Simon Pearson is a good fri
What exactly makes a good story when it comes to games? A likable protagonist, interesting plot development, climax, and a definitive resolution are often the key ingredients, but a great antagonist is often times what can separate a story from the rest of the pack. The same concept applies to video games, some of the most memorable characters in gaming history have been the ones gamers despised. From Bowser to Ganandorf to Shao Kahn, villains can give their protagonist counterparts a meaning, and a platform to shine. This list will break down the top 10 gaming Antagonists since the year 2000. There will only be one antagonist per franchise, and no reiterations of characters made before 2
To a certain extent, Rockstar could use some of the mechanics they’ve come up with in the past, such as the ones that were showcased in LA Noire, to set up a game that sees us go up against the exact sort of people we played as in the first two games in the franch
An indie 2D puzzle-platformer standing next to giants as one of the best PlayStation 4 games to be released should let you know up front just how good Celeste is. Not only does it offer rewarding escalating challenges, but it delivers an emotionally relatable story of someone trying to deal with their mental hea
