Our quick take Gran Turismo 7 - 4.0 / 5 Casual drive Can I help you sir? The sims Going up a gear To recap Gran Turismo returns to its roots in the most accessible game in the series in years. It also makes great use of the PlayStation 5 with almost instant loading and superb use of the DualSense controller. There’s something a little strange about some of its in-game systems and modes, with single-player missions handed to you in the form of cafe menus (no, really) but on-the-track handling is so excellent you’ll never really care....

Despite the success of Red Dead Redemption 2 and the release of its Red Dead Online multiplayer beta, Grand Theft Auto Online continues to be explosively popular. So it comes as no surprise that Rockstar is continuing to produce major content updates for Grand Theft Auto 5’s inventive multiplayer mode. Today Rockstar released Grand Theft Auto Online’s latest update, Arena War, a major update featuring seven different unique demolition derby modes....

Apparently, all the glowing review scores and sales accolades weren’t enough. Grand Theft Auto V has now officially made more money than any movie in history. Grand Theft Auto V, as you’ll remember, had a huge launch. It had been hyped out the wazzoo for quite some time prior to release, and it was always going to do darn well, but still. That well? The game originally hit on 17 September 2003, making $800 million in its first day on sale....

With more players firing up GTA Online than ever before, there has never been a better time to invest in an in-game garage.

Hades, the roguelike action-RPG from indie studio Supergiant Games, was one of the biggest hits of 2020. After fully releasing in mid-September, it quickly gained a massive following, as well as universal acclaim among critics. There’s no doubt that Hades is one of the smoothest roguelikes out there today, but it does have one big problem. Hades originally launched in early access back in late 2018, as a Epic Store timed-exclusive....

The world of Harry Potter: Hogwart’s Mystery may be about gaining knowledge, earning house points, and making friends; but that doesn’t mean things won’t get a little violent from time to time. Wizard and witch dueling is a staple of the wizarding world and the elegant form of battle has made its way into Harry Potter: Hogwart’s Mystery, as well. Dueling isn’t an incredibly complicated system in Hogwart’s Mystery, but there are a few basics that are important to understand....

The monthly event is back this weekend and is bringing some pretty exciting features and bonuses that are sure to get witches and wizards out and active in the mobile AR game. This time around the Community Day is focused on Quidditch once again, so players can expect iconic characters like Draco, Marcus, and Cedric to be in the spotlight....

Pokémon has been around for a long time. Everyone in the world has heard of these addicting little critters, and it’s likely that you’ve played a few games in your lifetime. Because of this, many people have found themselves hooked, basically selling their souls just to get a shot at having another Ditto to add to their collection. In the time that the franchise has been around, there are those who hopped on the bandwagon for a few months and then hopped off (cough, Pokémon GO players, cough)....

Announced during August’s State of Play event, Hood: Outlaws and Legends looks to be an action-packed multiplayer experience that centers around the legendary folk tales of Robin Hood. The game pits two teams of rival thieves against each other in an effort to nab large sums of treasure, all the while having to contend with enemy AI that’s attempting to stop them in their tracks.

Horizon Zero Dawn’s latest PC patch makes snow look more like snow and also fixes a bunch of crash issues.

Xbox One’s Brick Breaker features a series of achievements that, for the longest time, were thought to be completely impossible for humans to unlock. After a two-year break from the game, I had a eureka moment that brought me back to try my hand at it once again. A couple of days later, I became the first and only person in the world to prove that these dreaded achievements weren’t quite as impossible as people originally thought....

For many, the forthcoming Darksiders 3 may be one of the most anticipated titles of Fall 2018. It may not be at the top of everyone’s list, but there has been a dedicated following for this franchise regardless, sometimes in thanks to its Legend of Zelda-esque gameplay. And for those eager to get their hands on this title next month, we now know how long it will take players to beat the game....

Sometimes, a series will only improve with time, reaching its high point somewhere in the middle (cue Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare) or continues to improve on itself entry after entry. While some would contest, The Legend of Zelda and Super Mario series are both cases of franchises polishing proven mechanics time after time. Then, there are series that hit their high point right off the bat, or get a second homerun, only to take a dive thereafter....

Surprisingly, a lot of the content in Final Fantasy 7 Remake remains faithful to the original game’s contents in significant ways. The overarching story beats are largely the same. Many of the iconic regions from Midgar were beautifully remade in modern graphical fidelity. Basically all the characters in the original Final Fantasy 7, story critical or otherwise, were either reworked or recontextualized in Remake’s story. But there are some exceptions and new content, specifically with a new character named Roche....

The 1997 mob movie, Donnie Brasco, celebrates its 25th anniversary this week. This is almost as long as the real-life title character has been on the run with a half-a-million-dollar contract on his head. Johnny Depp plays Joe Pistone in the movie, an undercover federal cop codenamed “Donnie Brasco.” He gets so deep into the wheels of the Brooklyn operations of the Bonanno crime family that he almost becomes a made man....

There are plenty of Personas to collect and fuse in Persona 5 Strikers, and completing the inmate registry (collecting all Personas) will reward you with the Mask Connoisseur trophy. However, completing this registry is easier said than done, as some Personas can only be fused once you have obtained specific items from defeating Powerful Shadows.

Minecraft players will encounter one of the most annoying things while building, mining underground, or running away from mobs and that is falling from a great height. Many will die to fall damage at least once while playing the game, and it is frustrating every time. Thankfully, there are many methods you can use to either reduce or negate fall damage. Over the years, the game added new ways to reduce fall damage, but in the past players had to come up with creative ways to break their falls....
