Bayonetta 3 Review – The Multiverse of Madeness

Earlier this year, we met with Nintendo at PAX West 2022 to preview their upcoming games Splatoon 3 and Bayonetta 3. Walking away from that meeting, we were excited to see what Nintendo and Platinum Games had in store for fans within the coming months. After the release of Splatoon 3 in September received critical praise, our anticipation for Bayonetta 3 increased exponentially. Now after completi...[Read More]

Bayonetta 3 PAX West 2022 Preview

During the recent PAX West 2022, I got the chance to check out Bayonetta 3 behind closed doors, during that time I got to check out a few levels of the game. As a fan of the first Bayonetta and someone who tolerated Bayonetta 2, Platinum Games’ work with Bayonetta 3 gave us hope for the franchise. While we loved the first game, the second one’s controls, due to the Wii U, made the comb...[Read More]

Vanquish 10th Anniversary (Xbox One) Review

Vanquish is one of those games that blended in next to its contemporaries, creating a passionate group of players that discovered it as a hidden gem of the era. At a glance, this power fantasy starring a rather plain armored super-soldier seems to be a typical third-person shooter with various guns and cover mechanics. What lies beneath is a complex web of systems that all aim to let players expre...[Read More]

Scalebound Has Been Officially Cancelled

One of the more interesting games shown off at E3 of last year was Scalebound. Created by Platinum Games, the amazing developers behind Bayonetta, the game starred a young warrior who listened to dubstep on his big headphones while battling alongside his dragon companion. Scalebound was one of the more unique offerings by Microsoft, which is why this news is so painful. Yes, Scalebound has officia...[Read More]

At Microsoft’s event, new gameplay footage showing off a massive boss fight was shown off, which included help from other players via Co-Op. Watch the battle below.

Pre-Order Costumes Revealed for Mutants in Manhattan

Activision Publishing Inc, Nickelodeon, and Platinum Games are teaming up to bring one of the most unique Ninja Turtles game in recent memory this summer. Mutants in Manhattan has the nostalgic all googley-eyed, while action gaming fans look forward to another tight brawler. Either way, it looks like a good time and the franchise is in the best hands with Platinum, the folks behind Bayonetta and T...[Read More]

Review: Wonderful 101: Wii U

When I was a youngin’, I used to look forward to Saturday mornings from the moment my feet hit the ground on a Sunday. All week long I’d sit around daydreaming of hefty heroes with awesome abilities thwarting vile villains’ dastardly deeds; anxiously awaiting the time when I could sneak out of bed before anyone else in the house and claim the TV as my own for a few hours. Now tha...[Read More]

Review: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (360)

When someone says that a game is not worth $59.99 solely because of its length, I always throw Vanquish out as an example of an incredibly high quality, yet short, experience that is unequivocally worth full retail pricing. If a game is both short and underwhelming, then I can understand the argument, but simply discounting a game based on length will always result in an impassioned argument of...[Read More]

Review: Anarchy Reigns (360)

I do not believe that any game developer or publisher is perfect, even in cases of a perfect track record. A company with a perfect record is simply a company that has not yet made its first mistake. Platinum Games is one of the companies that sits on my “haven’t screwed up yet” list, primarily because of their absolute brilliance in developing Bayonetta and Vanquish (my game of ...[Read More]

You know what’ll help you get even more excited? Limited Edition details. Announced two weeks ago, the Metal Gear Rising: Revengea...[Read More]

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance – Tutorial Gameplay

I’m not a huge fan of the Metal Gear Solid series. I can appreciate it for what it is, but the gameplay itself is just not my preferred style. I never thought I’d find myself excited for a Metal Gear game, to be honest. Then I heard that Platinum Games was helming the next Metal Gear, titled Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, and a spark of interest lit within me. Platinum Games is curren...[Read More]

E3 2012: Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

See, because it’s revenge…and vengeance…Revengeance. Ok, so ignore the fact that “revenge” and “vengeance” are synonyms with nearly identical definitions. Think of it as just a really badass sounding name, and when you think of it that way, you’ll realize that it doesn’t HAVE to make sense, it just HAS to sound badass. Which it does. Regardless...[Read More]
