Assassin's Creed Origins

Image
Announced as a complete reboot of the franchise, Ubisoft has brought forth Assassin's Creed Origins. Now we get to find out what was the true origin story of the brotherhood, and where did all this truly start. But is this a clean reboot? Does the same old playstyle still hold, or did they really shake it up? I can honestly say, they shaked it up, and for the better! Welcome to Egypt in this prologue

Lifeline: Whiteout

A while ago, I was searching for a "choose your own adventure" type of game to play with my daughter. Unfortunately, not being native English speakers it was very difficult to find something suiting for a 4-year old and I ultimately gave up. In my search however, I did find an interesting game to play myself, namely Lifeline: Whiteout for IOS or Android. Looks intriguing, doesn't it?

This weekend Ubisoft entertains us with the beta of their upcoming game For Honor . I had the pleasure of partaking in this beta, and found it to be a great version of medieval Rainbow Six! Hack and slash your epic way through hordes of enemies in a quest to slay other heroes is the concept and it works great! For HONOR!

Final Fantasy XV

After a good three years without a new entry in the main series, Square-Enix has finally released the game some of us have been waiting on for the better part of a decade. Most fans agree that the series has been in decline for smoe time and had their last hopes pinned on this title. With the promise of a returned focus on a limited cast of characters, a more fluid and open game style and the gorgeous graphics that were one of the few redeeming factors of the newer entries, it certainly proved that the series is not yet running on it’s final legs. 15 and still going baby!
