One of the biggest hits this summer was Psyonix's Rocket League. A smash-up of rocket-fueled cars and soccer had a chance to go terribly awry, yet the game proved to be as fun to play as the premise hinted at. Psyonix isn't done with the title, either, as there is new DLC arriving next month.
No matter what sorts of garbage life throws at you, you can always cast a sidelong glance towards literally anyone inhabiting the world of Bloodborne and say "Well at least I'm not that guy." The Souls games have a tendency to be both terrifying and depressing, where even defeating a colossal demon offers little in the way of gratification since the damage has already been done and not even the sweet release of death can save you.
It seems like you can't release a multiplayer shooter these days without the promise of additional maps coming post-release as well. In most instances, those maps will cost you a few bucks as well. Ubisoft recently announced that its forthcoming shooter, Rainbow 6 Siege, will ship with 11 maps initially, and ALL future maps will be free.
A new update arrived yesterday to the cooperative, tactical, RTS, The Red Solstice. Titled "Point of No Return" the update includes a new game mode for folks look to make this (in my opinion) already hard game that much harder.

Somewhere between the vastness of Spaceteam and Artemis: Spaceship Bridge Simulator lies Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, a game centered around the act of yelling at your friend, flailing, yelling some more, staring at each other in a brief moment of bewilderment, and then bursting out laughing. It’s fun by way of pure, emergent c...
Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition is only a few months out the door, but already it's adding some nice new features. Case in point: version 0.12.1 has added support for cross platform LAN play with the mobile version Minecraft: Pocket Edition. Ain't computers great?
While TGS 2015 has come and gone this year without too much in the way of fanfare, there was one little piece of video that caught our eye. Specifically, this little clip that shows off some of the "Swords of Sanghelios" mission from Halo 5: Guardians.
Fans of the EDF series may enjoy this little announcement - Earth Defense Force 2: Invaders from Planet Space will be arriving on the PS Vita next month. That's right, the remake/port of this PS2 and (until recently) Japan only title hits store shelves on October 20, 2015. To celebrate, bask in all the glorious giant "alien" slaughter.
By the end of September, Xbox One owners can finally get their hands on the tastiest sidescrolling shooter/brawler around, Guns, Gore & Cannoli. As a bonus for being so patient, some extra free skins are included in the download. Cannoli skins.
Eon Altar has battled its way onto Steam Early Access. Described as the ultimate couch co-op RPG, the game makes use of smartphones as controllers, letting anyone in the room pull the phone out of their pocket, download the free Android or iOS controller app, and jump into the fray.
For a kid who's all bound up, Isaac certainly seems to get around. Afterbirth, a big expansion to The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, has been in the works for some time, promising over 100 hours of added playtime with 1,000 new rooms to explore. With an October 30th release date, we're eager to see just what sort of twisted, bloody things we'll be haunted by for the following few weeks.
Looks like How to Survive taught us a lesson. Namely, how to survive. We did such a good job surviving, now we're off to New Orleans to do it again. How to Survive 2 was recently announced as a Steam Early Access release for early October, and so far we like what we hear. Because there's four player co-op, you see.
