This piece contains spoilers for a few Elden Ring bosses. For the first few hours of Elden Ring, I was miserable.

Looking for a replacement headset is a tricky thing. Ideally, a new headset will give a different experience than whatever the buyer is currently using. On the same token, too much of a difference is jarring, and can make one wish they hadn’t switched away from their old standby. Speaking personally, I dread buying a new headset, because I’m a bit of an audio snob and prefer to buy the high-end stuff, but fear blowing $200-300 on something and not noticing much of a fundamental difference....

Typically, many wince at the idea of seeing video game adaptations come to the big (or small) screen. Over the years, Hollywood has tried to make use of video game franchises.

At a press event is Los Angeles last week, Bethesda let me play the first 3 hours of DOOM Eternal and I have to say, I’m pretty blown away. I really enjoyed Doom 2016’s fresh take on shooter genre. The momentum combat that’s always pushing you forward into the fray was incredibly satisfying. DOOM’s brand of high octane demon-slaying blood bath gameplay could have totally fallen flat for modern audiences, but I felt like the team at id Software really knocked it out of the park....

Ninty has released nearly 30 minutes of gameplay for Yoshi’s Crafted World on the Switch, following its extensive showcase during yesterday’s Treehouse event. This is one of the biggest glimpses of the game we’ve seen to date, and it’s very much what you’d expect from a Yoshi game.
