GamingBolt - Road 96: Mile 0 Review - The Final Verdict
Added 48 Views / 0 LikesRoad 96: Mile 0 doesn’t set out to expand the gameplay that made the original so unique. It instead seeks to flesh out the world through a smaller, more intimate story that tugs on your heartstrings. Pair this with some radical gameplay sections and awesome music, and you have yourself a fun, if a little short, experience.

GamingBolt - This Game's EPIC DESTRUCTION Will Leave You Speechless
Added 61 Views / 0 LikesOn the surface, upcoming free-to-play FPS THE FINALS doesn’t appear to reinvent the wheel. Read its synopsis and you’ll struggle to pick it apart from numerous other shooters already playable. Will you amass a small arsenal of guns and weaponry? Yep. Build your own playstyle? Certainly. Fight alongside teammates in rapid-fire rounds of gun-toting action? You bet. So far, there’s nothing singular, nothing standing out, no promise of a long future for T

GamingBolt - What The HELL Is Going On With PlayStation's PC Ports?
Added 68 Views / 0 LikesIf you've played The Last of Us Part 1 on PC recently, you've probably noticed it's pretty bad. Not the game, mind you, which is a good remake of one of the greatest titles ever made. It's the quality of the PC port, which drew a “Mostly Negative” review score on Steam at launch. Though it's since changed to “Mixed”, only 45 percent of user reviews are positive. Where do you even begin with the issues? Crashes, shader compilation that could take 40 mi

GamingBolt - Why The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Will be One of the BIGGEST Games of the Year
Added 69 Views / 0 LikesFrom Starfield to Marvel's Spider-Man 2, there's still a bevy of AAA heavy hitters that are set to release over the course of 2023. But even in a year that's as packed as 2023 is clearly going to be, many would argue that one game stands head and shoulders above all others in terms of its scale and the magnitude of its release. That game, of course, is The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.

GamingBolt - 15 Video Games That Were Way Better Than They Had Any Right to be
Added 70 Views / 0 LikesIf it wasn't obvious, making a video game isn't easy. Along with creating a strong concept and design, you need to hire artists and programmers, budget everything accordingly, manage production cycles, squash bugs, coordinate teams and much more over years. Whether an indie or big-budget game, it's hard to predict how some games will turn out. However, there are games which turn out even better than expected. Even if they looked good, the final result

GamingBolt - Stray Blade Review - The Final Verdict
Added 61 Views / 0 LikesStray Blade is a game that could have been something more. With additional polish, it could at least be more fun to play, ensuring smoother exploration and less problematic enemies. However, even if some of the design choices with the combat warrant some significant overhauls, you're still left with a fairly average story, above-average to decent exploration, and a nice-looking aesthetic. It just isn't worth dealing with, given all the other issues.

Added 75 Views / 0 LikesEven with this asterisk - and I can't stress enough how significant it is - Star Wars Jedi: Survivor is a must-play experience for fans of the first game. It doesn't rewrite the rules so much as massively build upon, improve and expand on the formula in numerous ways. It offers a human story about home, family and moving on while presenting a likeable cast and memorable locations. Where the series goes from here is anyone's guess. I'm not just excited

GamingBolt - Strayed Lights Review - The Final Verdict
Added 58 Views / 0 LikesLike I mentioned at the beginning of this feature, these factors come together to make Strayed Lights a bland experience. And that’s one of the worst places to be for any entertainment product. It doesn’t do anything exceptionally well, and it doesn’t do anything exceptionally bad either. It’s a mediocre product that fails to do anything to keep you interested in what it has to say. The parry based combat is interesting in concept, but falters in the

It may seem harsh, but it was announced in 2014, less than a year after the PS4 and Xbox One, and went from YAGER to Sumo Digital before finally landing at Dambuster. Other games with more resources have fared far worse. However, now it's available – and pretty good, though it has some issues, selling over a million copies in ju

It isn’t a particularly long game, and while it has a number of gameplay mechanics, none of them get particularly deep. I don’t think I’ll ever find myself revisiting Bramble: The Mountain King years down the line, however, since there really isn’t all that much to revisit.

The journey will test your tolerance for frights as well as your patience for constant death. Still, the two-man development team at NC Studio built a horrific world that’d be rather immersive making it a supremely noteworthy indie title if it weren’t for the hurdles of overcoming impactful bugs.

But the game is centered around the action and the journey and less about the details that allegedly brought it all into existence.

While it does retain hints of the studio's formula, it dilutes it too much with rote and uninspired gameplay and design choices, resulting in a blend that feels like it's neither here nor there.
