Added 66 Views / 0 LikesThe developer has done a fantastic job with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, a game that has proven instrumental in laying the blueprint for some of the best open worlds of recent memory. The game’s set of mechanics was ripe to be built upon with a sequel, and Tears of The Kingdom is here to do just that. The game not only delivers a huge leap in terms of the systemic gameplay that defined the original, but also makes pretty substantial change

GamingBolt - The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Review - The Final Verdict
Added 76 Views / 0 LikesPlatforming fans can enjoy the game’s challenges. While stealth is naturally a part of the gameplay loop, it’s certainly no Splinter Cell. There really isn’t much depth to it beyond simply staying out of sight and distracting enemies when you can. However, when all is said and done, there’s some meat here for to chew on if you can look past some scuffs, rough edges, and simplistic gameplay. Despite being presented as a lonely creature, Gollum gets mor

Added 55 Views / 0 LikesGollum might be one of the most popular and recognizable characters in The Lord of the Rings, but you wouldn't think many developers would think of building an entire game with him as the playable protagonist. Daedalic Entertainment's The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is promising exactly that, and owing to that premise, it has piqued the curiosity of quite a few people- fans of Middle-earth in particular. After a couple of delays, the game is not long aw

GamingBolt - The NEXT God of War Game Should Go Back To Its Older Scale
Added 62 Views / 0 LikesIt may very well be quite a while before we see Kratos in a new mainline game again. But when we do, we hope to see the series' falling back into at least a few of its old habits.

GamingBolt - The Origins of Mortal Kombat - Part One - Before You Play Mortal Kombat 1
Added 85 Views / 0 LikesWith the upcoming Mortal Kombat 1, the franchise will be rebooting itself yet again, but as we know all too well at this point, Mortal Kombat never truly hits the reset button. As the 2011 reboot proved, even a reboot is a sequel in disguise. While it remains to be seen how tangibly connected to the past games Mortal Kombat 1 will be, there's little doubt in anyone's mind that it will, at the end of the day, still serve as a continuation that stems fr

GamingBolt - The Outer Worlds Spacer's Choice Edition PS5 Review - A Pretty Frustrating Experience
Added 75 Views / 0 LikesIn conclusion, The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice ends up being a half-baked package that doesn’t really justify its price tag. Whatever miniscule upgrades have been done to the experience don’t really amount to much in the grand scheme of things, and with performance issues galore - Spacer’s Choice isn’t the definitive edition of the game that it clearly wanted to be. It’s an easy pass for those who have already played through the game and its DLCs. A

GamingBolt - The Outlast Trials Early Access Review
Added 70 Views / 0 LikesThe Outlast Trials is a fun experience, especially when played in co-op. Sure, its horror may not land too well for some players—it didn’t for me—but the experience itself was a lot of fun. Even joining online games with strangers never gets boring or frustrating, and playing with other people is always a good way to lower the tension if the game gets too scary for you. Aside from its co-op, however, The Outlast Trials doesn’t do much new, and if you’

It'll be the first time that we'll be seeing it since its gameplay debut last year, and hopefully, it'll make a much stronger impression. Hopefully, it'll also be a significant improvement over BGS' previous games where its technical and visual aspects are concerned. Xbox boss Phil Spencer has said tha

Added 72 Views / 0 LikesFirst person shooters have been all the rage since the original DOOM hit the scene back in the 90s. Since then, many popular subgenres like arena shooters or military shooters have taken the front stage, while other relatively less popular subgenres like tactical shooters slowly and steadily built a niche audience for themselves.
