EA Shows off New Madden 18 Story Mode, Long Shot, Trailer

2 Comments

Kicking off the EA Conference at E3 2017, we get a glimpse with Madden 18‘s story mode, Long Shot.

The trailer below showcases Devin Wade, an up-and-coming football player with aspirations of making it big with the NFL.

Madden 18 releases on August 25 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

My Opinion:
This looks very reminiscent of the FIFA 2017 story mode and clearly shows a new approach towards deeper single-player storytelling paired with a fantastic multiplayer experience.

Kingdom Hearts has a Disney problem

Despite releasing in one of the the most critically rich periods in gaming history, Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMix effortlessly pulled me back into the beloved marriage of Disney and Final Fantasy. As the stellar collection’s nostalgic mix of music, action and character washed over me, I couldn’t help but reminisce about a simpler time. Not just in terms of my personal journey (playing the original as a 9-year-old fresh off divorce to now as 23-year-old navigating the perils of young-adult life), but in regards to the series itself.

DISTILLED RELATIONSHIPS

The Walking Dead: A New Frontier Episode 4 unfortunately continues the downward spiral started from the previous episode.
