GamingBolt - 10 Best Racing And Sports Games of 2022 You Need To Play
Added 63 Views / 0 LikesGiven the level of interest, widespread praise, and sales that the biggest sports and racing games tend to generate on a regular basis, it feels weird to call them a niche category of games. Even so, it requires its audience to have very particular tastes- and if you do have those tastes, you’re probably pretty happy about how 2022 went. Arcade racers, hardcore racing sims, addictive management simulators, you name it- 2022 was chock-full off great sp

GamingBolt - Valheim Xbox Series X Early Access Review
Added 63 Views / 0 LikesIf you didn’t like Valheim on PC, the Xbox console port is unlikely to change your mind. However, if you’ve never experienced the game and you have access to an Xbox but not a PC, this version of Valheim is definitely worth checking out. It has feature and content parity with the PC version, crossplay support, and the unparalleled sense of adventure and discovery that the original game has. Both versions are also still in Early Access, so they will be

GamingBolt - Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection Review - The Final Verdict
Added 63 Views / 0 LikesThese games aren’t great. They don’t hit the purity of design that Mega Man classic has, the fluidity and exciting kinetic dynamism that Mega Man X has, or the sheer highs that Mega Man Legends has. They are the Saturday morning adaptation equivalent (of a property that was already like a Saturday morning cartoon to begin with). You will like them, but they’re a bit like strongly scented vanilla ice cream. It makes an impression, but not nearly enough

GamingBolt - Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Review - The Final Verdict
Added 63 Views / 0 LikesIt's just a shame that so much of what Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened is trying to do on the gameplay front doesn't land. Though investigations can be satisfying when they finally come together, almost everything leading up to those moments of culmination and eureka is frequently dragged down by design that is either frustratingly opaque, repetitive, or unpolished. When the game does move at a steady pace and lets you enjoy the story, it's well worth e

Added 63 Views / 0 LikesWith games like Dishonored and Prey under its belt, Arkane Studios has, by now, firmly established itself as one of the best developers of immersive sims in the industry.

GamingBolt - EVERYTHING WRONG With Redfall
Added 63 Views / 0 LikesRedfall feels like Arkane's Anthem moment. Here's a studio that has made a name of itself as one of the best developers in a specific genre, but has, for some reason, decided to veer completely off track to chase a few trends. Arkane's new open world looter shooter loses so much of what the developer's best games have always been known for, an issue that is exacerbated by the fact that the new things it does attempt, it doesn't really succeed at.

The game has suffered multiple reboots, and the identity crisis that goes along with that; it has spent prolonged periods in development hell, where updates on its development have been non-existent; it has seen significant behind-the-scenes issues, from questionably work practices to the constant shuffling around of people in leadershi

Dakar Desert Rally Review - The Final Verdict
Added 62 Views / 0 LikesAt its core, Dakar Desert Rally does have more going for it than not. With equally gorgeous and gigantic racing environments to enjoy, intuitive management systems, and it’s obviously unique position among other modern big-budget racing games, it’s certainly nothing to sleep on. Most racing fans should give it a look at the very least. Getting hung up on a small handful of little things might slow it down a bit, but for most, I suspect Dakar Desert Ra

While the previous-generation of 30-series GPUs are more than enough to keep up with the PS5 and Xbox Series X//S, the new 40-series of cards seems to be more of a way for Nvidia to expand on its work with RTX ray tracing and DLSS technologies.

You’ll be interacting with all sorts of disgusting things, and fighting off horrifying creatures, and if you’re the kind of person who can not only stomach the aesthetic, but actually enjoy it, Scorn will undoubtedly be a wonderful experience.

Added 62 Views / 0 LikesMarvel’s Midnight Suns has the foundation to be a phenomenal game. It can definitely become the definitive card-based strategy game out there. It just has to fix a few key issues. While some problems, like the plot and voice acting, can’t really be solved with patches, others, like having better, bigger maps to fight in, more characters, and more cards, would definitely make the game much more appealing. As it currently sits, the core gameplay in Marv
