2K Games’ top-rated NBA video game simulation franchise is once again hitting the courts this fall, with NBA 2K16 arriving on both next-generation consoles (PS4/Xbox One), and prior generation consoles (PS3/Xbox 360).

Now that’s awesome!

 For Gears of War fans, April is the month we’ve been waiting for. The much-hyped Gears of War 4 Early Access Multiplayer Beta has officially kicked off as of April 18th. I was fortunate enough to get a chance to rev up my lancer chainsaw in a limited (early) early access period this weekend, and absolutely loved it. Come see how Gears of War 4’s multiplayer is going back to basics, while also adding tons of new features at the same time!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year for many a sports fan. The MLB pennant race is really starting to stir, the NHL pre-season is less than a month away, and in just a few short weeks, 32 NFL teams will kick off another long road to the Super Bowl. For many, this is the marker for the beginning of another season of exciting team sports action, and the “New Year” always begins with EA Sports’ Madden series. Time to pop the champagne and dig out the party favours, Madden 16 is finally here.   

This fall, a fully revamped and re-energized NBA Live Experience hits your Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles!  Jump in on the action early by Pre-Ordering the game for a slam dunk of a Live Ultimate Team Bonus.  Read on to find out more.

Nintendo is kicking off the E3 festivities this year in a huge way by inviting fans from around the world to watch the thrilling finals of the Nintendo World Championships live on Sunday, June 14.

I have always been a big fan of the Xbox in all of its iterations. From the Original Xbox which brought me and my friends endless hours of Halo: Combat Evolved multiplayer action, to the Xbox One where I have been dropping titans with unmatched glee, now in Titanfall for over a year. The consoles might be great but there are also some great accessories out there which can certainly improve the experience and I got the info to help you do just that!

Ask gamers about NHL 15 and you’ll get one of two answers: “It’s great because it’s the hockey game we’ve been waiting for” or “I can’t believe it’s missing so much.” The camps will probably remain pretty divided, but the fact of the matter is, if you’re in it for the traditional hockey gaming experience, NHL 15 provides it and more. It is, in fact, a good hockey gamer’s game. Read on to find out more.

How many hours of game play, that’s both campaign and multiplayer by the way, would you say you’ve racked up in Halo? Personally, I couldn’t even guess.  ‘Combat Evolved’ truly was, it opened the gaming worlds eyes to what was possible, and changed things in a major way.  Lan parties gave way to real online multiplayer for the console and we haven’t looked back since.  So what do you do after having such a huge impact on our cultures favorite entertainment medium?  Do it again of course!  Enter Destiny, Bungie’s next big thing, and they want to give you a whole bunch of cool gear for pre-ordering (so let them).

Stellar Blade on PS5 blends thrilling action, RPG depth, and a captivating post-apocalyptic setting into an extremely satisfying experience.
