Fallout 76 is currently experiencing a huge surge in players, but is it any good now?
Like a lot of people right now, I’ve been bitten by the radiocative bug that is the Fallout TV show. Because of this, I’ve been diving into Bethesda’s back catalogue of games in order to get my Fallout fix now that I’ve binged my way through the series. On yesterday’s VR Corner for instance, I…

Do these Fallout 4 VR mods make the game worth revisiting after the TV show?
The first time I played Fallout 4 VR was in a tiny little booth after Bethesda’s 2016 E3 conference. I called my short time with the game ‘underwhelming’ back then because the whole experience was little more than a stationary shooting gallery with bottles for targets. Even then though, it was still a thrill to…

Watch us play the first 90 minutes of Harold Halibut on Xbox Series X
Yep, you’re herring me right. Hot on the heels of yesterday’s o-fish-al Eurogamer review, I’ll be diving into the first 90 minnows of Harold Halibut on the Xbox Series X for you in today’s live stream! If, like me, you’ve been reeled in by the game’s stunning, handcrafted visuals but want to know whether the…

Explore Azeroth in first-person with this new World Of Warcraft VR Mod
Before you watch this week’s episode of VR Corner, please bear in mind that I’ve never really played World of Warcraft before. That means you won’t see any high level raiding in my coverage, but you will get a lot of confused bumbling, cow killing and NPC kissing action instead. So a pretty standard VR…

The latest update for the R.E.A.L. VR mod adds Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition to its list
Howdy, Helmet-heads! Thanks to a Bank Holiday Monday and a lengthy trip to the Elder Scrolls Online 10-Year Anniversary Celebration, this week’s episode of VR Corner is something of a rush job, I’m afraid. Still, something’s better than nothing, right? And this something is pretty cool to be fair, because master modder Luke Ross has…

How the success of Skyrim changed The Elder Scrolls Online
Doesn’t time fly? It feels like only yesterday I was being ushered into a darkened booth during a bustling E3 2012 to watch a behind closed doors gameplay demo of the newly-announced MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online. Here I am now though, some 12 years later, looking at the game again for the game’s 10th…

This Early Access VR Mod for the original Tomb Raider could become the best way to play the game
God, I adore flatscreen to VR mods. Honestly, they’re just so much more exciting to me than the current crop of official VR releases. A large portion of anticipated titles have been fairly underwhelming to say the least, but thankfully there’s absolutely nothing like the feeling of revisiting an all-time classic in VR to make…

We’ve ranked all of Dragon’s Dogma 2’s meat grilling videos from worst to best
I’ve been very much enjoying my time in Dragon’s Dogma 2 so far. Bumbling around, getting into emergent scrapes with giant enemies one minute and then tossing my more aggravating pawns off of cliff tops the next. But there’s nothing that I like doing more in this game than watching the live action meat grilling…

Darkly comic horror game, HappyFunland VR shows promise but it might not be worth the price of admission
Let’s start this week’s VR Corner on a positive note shall we? Whoever was behind the art and level design of HappyFunland VR absolutely smashed it out of the (theme)park! The detail to the world and its props is top notch, the environmental storytelling is excellent and it often had me laughing out loud and…

Don’t judge a game by its name, Ascendant Infinity is nowhere near as dull as it sounds
I can’t think of a worse name than Ascendant Infinity for a game about high-action, tactical shooting, PvPvE chaos on a procedural map with a brash and loud, 80s inspired aesthetic. Like, what does Ascendant Infinity even mean? It’s a nonsense name that really doesn’t sell how energetic and fun this upcoming title can be!…
