'Ghost Recon: Wildlands' Is the Epic Open World Shooter That I've Been Waiting For
To say that I am just a fan of the work of Tom Clancy would be an understatement, because ever since my first experience delving into the worlds that his books have inspired I've been hooked. Now that's not to say that I've loved every game with the Tom Clancy seal, because despite all the praise, I never really got into the Rainbow Six franchise. Yet, Splinter Cell was a staple game during my teen years and the same could be said for the Ghost Recon franchise.

What Could a Video Game Based on The Walking Dead AMC Series Look Like?
Since The Walking Dead premiered on the AMC network in 2010, fans have gone crazy for all sorts of memorabilia and merchandise from the series. From replicas of set pieces to clothing apparel, there's something for everyone when it comes to The Walking Dead. Even before the television series came to be, fans of The Walking Dead comics had gone on to make their own one of a kind merchandise based on The Walking Dead. However, there's one type of merchandising which The Walking Dead seems to be lacking an abundance in: Video-gaming.

Meeting the Tribes of 'Horizon Zero Dawn'
If there is one thing that exceeds expectations in Horizon Zero Dawn, it's all the minuscule details that went into the development of a world set in a post-post-apocalypse. The game both hints toward our technologically advanced society as well as the potential regression that our culture could face with the incorporation of that very same advanced technology.

7 Superheroes Who Deserve A Gritty Game Like The 'Batman: Arkham' Series
For such a long time superhero games have been, well let's face it: terrible. When you've got such phenomenal source material, it seems crazy to think that there haven't been more great games based on the characters we love. Yet, we've been given games like these: Superman 64, The Uncanny X-Men, Catwoman, Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects, Batman: Dark Tomorrow and Spawn: The Eternal.

'Metal Gear Solid': Why Staying Faithful to the Source Material Is Crucial for Jordan Vogt-Roberts's Movie
If there's one video game series that warrants a film adaptation, it's Metal Gear Solid. Each and every installment in the series has been critically acclaimed, and it's allowed games to become legitimate storytelling media rather than an escape from the real world. Hideo Kojima's masterpiece is a vast tapestry of political intrigue and espionage that takes place over more than half a century in the game's world.

Fallout 4 Collectors Edition Comes with REAL Pip-Boy
During E3 it was announced that the Collector's Edition of Fallout 4 will come with its very own Pip-Boy! You can relive your Wasteland fantasies or round out that Fallout cosplay you've been working on all this time! Right? Well, sort of. It's not so much an actual Pip-Boy as it is a fancy phone case. You place your phone in the Pip-Boy and utilizing the app that will come out at the same time as the game, you can access all the features of the Pip-Boy via the app. Now, even Todd Howard had to admit that it was a bit of a gimmick but he was right in saying that it's one of the best ones.

Aliens, Assholes and Elbows: Reliving The Madness That Was 'Aliens: Colonial Marines'!
As Aliens turns 30, we look back fondly on arguably one of James Cameron's (and the Alien franchise's) best outings. So, surely a game based on the 1986 blockbuster couldn't fail to do well...right? In 2006 when SEGA announced that it had acquired the rights to the Alien franchise, our chest could've burst with Xenomorph happiness. However, seven years later when Aliens: Colonial Marines finally hit shelves, we felt like Charlize Theron having a spaceship dropped on us. Sadly Aliens: Colonial Marines looked more like the Alien Atari 2600 game from 1982 than the slick cinematic game we had hoped for. This is what went wrong down on LV-426!
