Hitman 3 is a great game, and I don’t like playing it. As contradictory as that seems, the Hitman games play to a very specific niche. Unfortunately, try as I might, I don’t think I’m in that niche. The reboot games have been all about approaching the well-designed levels like a sandbox, playing it how

Over the past 6 or so years I’ve dedicated the majority of that time to video games. While I’ve had some really great memories and met some amazing people through that dedication, I’ve always felt unsatisfied. Something was missing. Really, anything you dedicate yourself to you end up almost unhealthily obsessed with it. So, as
Even though I spent just short of 100 hours with Persona 5 Royal last summer, it was arguably the fastest 100 hours that I’ve likely spent with any game. Banding together with the Phantom Thieves to steal hearts and take down the most corrupt denizens of Tokyo never lost its charm thanks to its effortless
Last year, the year known as 2020, was a year alright. On top of struggling through adjusting to a pandemic, we saw not only a bunch of new games, but we welcomed the next-generation consoles — or current-generation if you like. The year felt like one of the slowest years to date, and yet it
Chalk it up to my distorted sense of time in the pandemic, but it’s surprising to think that DOOM Eternal somehow came out almost a year ago. Coming up on its first anniversary, DOOM Eternal left a big mark thanks to its frenetic pace and adrenaline-fueled action. That combo helped it to easily stand out as
Echo Games found a niche audience with their rhythm-roguelike hybrid Rhythm Fighter when it was released on Steam last year. Soon, you’re finally able to pummel enemies to the beat while on the go when it makes its debut on the Nintendo Switch. The musical brawler takes a bit of inspiration from megahit Crypt of the NecroDancer
I remember being a young’un and getting excited as the next subscription for my PlayStation Official Magazine, PC Gamer Magazine, or the Official Xbox Magazine would land in the shops. I’d be excited about the content within the pages; reviews, editorials, and facts tucked away in boxouts. But the biggest selling point came with each
Editor’s Note: Little Nightmares 2 contains graphic imagery related to suicide. Back in 2017, Little Nightmares wowed with its tight, chilling blend of atmosphere and stealth platforming. Personally, I was most impressed by Tarsier Studios’ willingness to show restraint. Instead of succumbing to the cheap thrill of a jump scare, it made the player feel
I never got to experience Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game when it released back in 2010, but I was fully aware of its devout following. Many of you will remember the game was delisted back in 2014. Combine that with the lack of a physical version at the time and I was worried that
It’s still early on in 2021, but I might have already found my favorite game of the year. Loop Hero from Devolver Digital and Four Quarters is a mix of two of my favorite genres: roguelikes and idle games. It sounds like something I’d dream up during an especially great sleep; however, this thing is
Square Enix continues the retro-collection train with the Collection of SaGA Final Fantasy Legend on the Nintendo Switch. The SaGa collection brings together a series of decades-old games to give new players a look at the roots of the historic mobile franchise. After spending time completing this collection, I’m pleased to say that the experiences
The year 2020 featured some quality titles that dealt with the themes of life, loss, and death, such as Spiritfarer, Mosaic, Sea of Solitude, Coffee Talk, and Hades. When the Past Was Around is another title — an adventure point-and-click puzzle game — that delves into the vast intricacies of love, death, and moving on.
Outside of the characters and world introduced in Monster Hunter World, Monster Hunter Rise is an improved sequel to it in almost every way. For a Nintendo Switch exclusive, it is one of the more stunning titles thanks to the use of Capcom’s RE Engine, along with bringing new features and abilities on top of elements that players
In 2018, Blizzard Entertainment’s Heroes of the Storm was arguably at its strongest. The game was constantly being updated with new and interesting Heroes, the dev team was consistently delivering fun events like Nexomania and the Toys Christmas, and, maybe most importantly, the Heroes Global Championship. This esports event saw Blizzard producing some of the
With 2020 now firmly in the rearview mirror, a new year means a host of new milestones with this year being no different. As we kickstart 2021, the year ahead will see significant video game anniversaries for some of the medium’s biggest franchises. Some of which include; The Legend of Zelda, Pokemon, and Skyrim. Today
Please don’t skip Unreal Life. At the time of my writing my review, Unreal Life has been on Steam since late November 2020. It has 98 user reviews, with a 97% positive rating; you can do the math on that. Developed by just one person, this is the kind of supremely niche indie game that
Asobo Studio has done incredible work with its 2020 launch of the PC version of Microsoft Flight Simulator — due to be heading to Xbox Series X | S this year. It’s an utterly breathtaking game to experience if you’re a fan of flying planes and simulators. But its true selling point sits in its
It all comes down to this. With 2020 in the rearview mirror (something we all surely wanted), it’s time to look ahead at 2021 and a new generation of games to play. However, before we completely closed the book on 2020, there was still some discussion to be had on the best games that we
Now that the official DualShockers GOTY 2020 results have been published, we Weebs/Otaku/Nerds/Whatever appellation floats your Nice Boat, still have one more battlefield we must face, a Saimoe to decide the Best Girl and Best Boy of 2020 in Japanese games. However this is a high-level, special Saimoe vote, geared towards those built different, where
2020 has obviously been a rough one, to say the least. With last year in the rearview mirror and 2021 ahead of us, all of us at DualShockers are looking forward to (hopefully) brighter and better days ahead for everyone in a year that was especially challenging. But before we completely put 2020 to bed, there’s one
As 2020 (thankfully) comes to a close, the DualShockers staff is coming together to share their personal favorite games throughout the year. Unlike our official Game of the Year Awards, each of these lists is meant to reflect which games stood out personally to each of our staff members. Additionally, any game — not just
After I previewed Drawn to Life: Two Realms, I was excited to continue the calming, charming, and slightly nostalgic worlds that the game had to offer. In fact, I noted that if the game was able to keep up the methodical introduction of player freedom and puzzle elements I experienced in the first hour, it
The only people that don’t know about Cyberpunk 2077 at this point live under a rock, and I seriously mean that. They must lack an internet connection or at the very least are locked away from society because anyone who has ventured outside or so much as looked at any screen within the last month

If there’s one thing I love it’s giant robots punching each other. So when Override: Mech City Brawl was released in 2018, I was very excited to check it out. It ultimately proved to be a very fun, if a little bare, multiplayer brawler where mechs have fistfights in various stages. Now, developer Modus Studios
