If you visit this here website a lot, you might have noticed that I have something of a similar setup in my contest posts. I like to start with an intro, give some game info, and then end with stuff about the game. I’m going to shake things up a little for this one, though, because today I’ve got a game where you can fight ghosts as a cat....

Much like its liberty-loving predecessor,Helldivers 2puts you in a squad of tough-talking, gun-toting soldiers cutting a swath through alien insects — all for the glory of humanity. But what happens when bugs aren’t enough? Is there a PvP mode to play inHelldivers 2? Sadly,Helldivers 2doesn’t include a PvP mode. So, for those who believe man to be the greatest animal worth hunting (I see you, Kraven), you’re out of luck;Helldivers 2isn’t that kind of game....

Here’s the full list: We’ll be sure to bring you impressions on most if not all these games all this week....

Prey 2is looking set to be one of E3’s biggest surprises. It’s certainly Bethesda’s least watched game, and that’s a shame because it’s already eclipsed its predecessor and could be one of the truly great sleeper hits of the generation. I am excited because, as far as I can see, few games have nailedBlade Runner‘s aesthetic as well asPrey 2, and this is in a world populated by games that try to emulateBlade Runner‘s aesthetic....

Square x Soft It’s so weird how many computer companies and developers had or have the word “soft” in their names. Squaresoft, Microsoft, Ubisoft.
