The Saboteur is a World War II open-world adventure game based in a 1940 German-occupied France. It was released on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2009. The player takes on the role of a former Irish racing car diver that helps the French resistance to liberate Pa








Released as a launch title for the Xbox One, Ryse remains an absolute spectacle of a game. It's not set in Ancient Greece and lacks the fantasy element of Odyssey, but it's still the perfect title for fans of swords and sandals epics and historical fict








image class="left" url="https://burst.shopifycdn.com/photos/bikes-parked-near-stone-building.jpg?width=746&format=pjpg&exif=0&iptc=0"Games like Overwatch use loot boxes to distribute new emotes, profile customization options, or costumes for characters to wear. These items are purely cosmetic and have no effect on gameplay, and loot boxes can be earned just by playing the game, or in exchange for real money. Reception has been positive because of the way the game doles out a reasonable drip of loot boxes just for playing the game, fueling an addictive cycle of "play the game, get loot, show off loot by playing, repeat." There's always the temptation to spend real money; the way the trickle of free boxes slows down the more you play is intentional, insidious, and incentivizes paying for more boxes. Regardless, many fans consider it an integral part of the gameplay loop, for better or wo








Before moving any more forward with recent photo modes in games, let’s take a step back. The photo modes we know and love today are a pretty recent feature, in the grand scheme of things. Ten years ago, people weren’t clamoring to take in-game pictures; that is, until Skate came along with its "skate.reel" feature. The now-retired skateboarding simulation was the first time I recall wanting to record every moment of my journey to becoming a (fake) pro ska





https://creedshadowgame.com/ Creed Identity is making its way onto the mobile market in just under three weeks and to promote the game, Ubisoft released an announcement trailer that is just all around dull and utterly boring. Even the actor portraying a regular shmoe who transforms into the assassin character (likely the protagonist of the game) looks bored and angry throughout the trailer. It’s as if just having to play this game during his short walk down the tunnel had squandered his entire day.








With so many incredibly recreated worlds the series sits at the top of the heap when it comes to history in gaming. However, let’s take a look at ten more historically set games that games should p








Publishers are learning what they can and cannot get away with in terms of nickel-and-diming consumers with microtransactions, much like they had to learn about what they could get away with in terms of larger DLC content. Capcom's fighting games became infamous for including DLC characters on the game disc, but employing the shady practice of keeping them locked behind a pay wall. These days, consumers are more savvy to such practices, and the practice of slicing off part of a game and selling it later is far less prevalent than it once was (although pre-order bonus missions remain the bane of many a gamer's existence). In a way, loot boxes are a way around that, as the content granted by the crates can usually be earned within the game itself. It's locked away from most players, but in a different way than Jill Valentine in Marvel vs Capco








The game is set in Ancient Rome and while it plays loose with historical accuracies fans of both Assassin’s Creed: Origins and Odyssey will enjoy this entry. It’s a linear and cinematic game but the combat shares some similarities to both Assassin’s Creed and the Batman: Arkham ga








Typical DLC (downloadable content) comes in the form of levels or expansions. Back in the old days, PC games would receive "Expansion Packs," such as StarCraft: Brood War or Diablo: Hellfire ; they're not sequels, but they, as their classification suggests, expand upon the content of the original game, while working within the same framework and engine as the origi








Mechanically, the game looks and plays like The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim but in Deliverance, there are no magic or fantasy elements of any kind. It’s a medieval simulator where players need to keep an eye on their character’s well being as much as their health. Furthermore, it features some of the most complex and realistic sword fighting mechanics in gaming where timing is everything and one mistake can cost one their li








There have been plenty of video games based on the work of J.R.R. Tolkien over the years, though not all of them have quite lived up to the excellence of the great author . With its fantastic nemesis system and well-refined combat mechanics though, that's not really a criticism that could ever be levied against the fantastic Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mord








It's October, which means the biggest video games of the season are upon us. Call of Duty WWII , Star Wars Battlefront II , Middle-earth: Shadow of War , Super Mario Odyssey , and Assassin's Creed Origins are just a few of the many heavy hitters vying for the attention of consumers this holiday sea
