GamingBolt - There’s No Cause for Concern for Starfield...

by Online Games Added 3 years ago 67 Views / 0 Likes

We'll have a much greater sense of how hard the sci-fi RPG is likely to hit when Microsoft and Bethesda show it off next month at the Starfield Direct. 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

Skulls And Bones - WHAT IS GOING ON?

by Online Games Added 4 years ago 66 Views / 0 Likes

In the case of Skull and Bones, seemingly everything that could have gone wrong with its development has gone wrong. 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

GamingBolt - Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Review - A Noticeable Lack of Polish

by Online Games Added 3 years ago 66 Views / 0 Likes

If you are able to look past how janky and buggy they are – and I know many, if not most, players will eventually be able to do that – then what awaits here is an incredible adventure that represents some of this franchise’s strongest moments yet. But the fact that that brilliance is buried under a literal mountain of crap is heartbreaking and infuriating. What should have been a victory lap, a triumphant return to form and glory for Pokemon, is there

God of War Ragnarok launched on November 9th for PS4 and PS5 and sold a whopping 5.1 million units in five days. But according to PlayStation Trophy data, only 49.5 percent of players have completed the main story till now. Roughly 28.47 percent of players have unlocked the Platinum Trophy and done everything, more or less.

by Online Games Added 3 years ago 66 Views / 0 Likes

Role playing games have hooked us gamers with fantastical worlds and a jaw-dropping sense of scale for decades now, and the genre has considerably evolved within that time period. What was once a market solely dominated by specific game developers has morphed into a global business, and this has led to new types of experiences. And as time has passed, we find ourselves returning to certain RPGs that just stand out from the pack for some reason or anot

GamingBolt - 14 Gaming Trends of 2022 That Were Actually Good

by Online Games Added 3 years ago 66 Views / 0 Likes

Trends can be a dangerous thing in any medium, but especially in video games. As we've seen so often over the years, so often developers and publishers pick up the wrong trends, or on the right trends for the right reasons- which inevitably leads to widespread dissatisfaction among players, if we're putting it mildly though. By that same token though, the right trends can be a great thing, because at least up until a certain point, you can't really sa

The Xbox 360 is when Microsoft became a major player in the console space, with a larger outreach than its predecessor and three solid flagship franchises in Halo, Forza and Gears of War. While it suffered from issues like the Red Ring of Death in the early going – to say nothing of the later Kinect era – the seventh generation console still supported some amazing games in its lifespan. Let's look at 15 of the best here.

There’s a reason the PlayStation 2 laid the foundation for Sony’s domination in the console market – effectively killing off Sega as hardware manufacturer and siphoning sales from GameCube – and that’s it’s incredibly diverse library of essential games. Put simply: the amount of quality titles on Sony’s second home console is simply staggering. Compiling a list of just 15 of the best PS2 games is nigh-on impossible, but it’s fair to say those games th

One of the bigger surprises at The Game Awards last year was 505 Games' Crime Boss: Rockay City. Surprisingly not because of its gameplay (of which little was seen), but due to the sheer number of big-name Hollywood actors attached. Releasing on March 29th for PC via the Epic Games Store, we've since learned many more details about this co-op multiplayer shooter. Let's go over 15 of them here.

GamingBolt - Stray Blade Review - The Final Verdict

by Online Games Added 3 years ago 66 Views / 0 Likes

Stray 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.

Like 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

Hack and slash games used to be all the rage back in the sixth and seventh console generations, and fans of the genre would obviously have fond memories of expressing themselves through the fluid combat systems found in games like Metal Gear Rising among a slew of other similar titles.

We all love a good horror level; there’s just something special about a fictional place that just unsettles you to the bone and gets your heart pumping in anticipation of the unknown. The best horror levels not only use the mechanical fear of a strong enemy to instill a sense of dread into the player, but also have strong thematic elements that make that sequence unforgettable.

Ghostbusters: Spirit Unleashed can make for some great chaotic fun with friends. The core gameplay loop is simple yet enjoyable, and Illfonic has made a game that’s pretty balanced on both ends. Mixing the single-player narrative with the PvP multiplayer is an interesting prospect, but it ends up being a gimmick more than anything else. Furthermore, some annoying design oversights such as the lack of mini-maps and additional game modes can make the ga

The Entropy Center is a really well-made puzzle game that takes its main hook of reversing time, and casts a wide net of ideas surrounding that very theme - most if not all of which stick to the landing.
