7 WAYS BEING A XBOX FAN HAS BEEN DISAPPOINTING

Nobody expected Microsoft to jump into console gaming. Even fewer naysayers thought they would still be doing it today. I was a Nintendo kid in my earliest years (perhaps explaining some pent-up aggression) when suddenly a little indie-game called Halo 2 took me in an all-new direction.

MONG Podcast 108 | The Legendary Debate: Lara v Nate

Welcome to episode 108 of the MONG Podcast! The crew genuinely hopes you’ve come here for fun, because that’s what you’re gonna get.

Just Cause 3 is Just Good Enough

It’s Just “Okay”

With the success of Just Cause 2, it was safe to say that developer Avalanche Studios would no doubt deliver a stellar performance when releasing the next game in the series, Just Cause 3. The open world sandbox shooter is filled with destruction and chaos, with some of the most brilliant explosions I’ve seen in a game. Unfortunately big bangs and shiny graphics are not the only things a game needs to be great, and while Just Cause 3 is fun, it does have its fair share of problems.

The Resident Evil series is known for popularizing the Survival Horror genre, but it was also an early adopter of online cooperative gameplay.
