Digital Competitive Eating

LOW Getting blockaded by red versions of Pac-Man.

WTF The theme DLCs.


Apex Legends Season 9: Legacy Hands-On Preview

It’s fair to say that Apex Legends has done okay for itself. Recently surpassing one hundred million unique players around the same time as it was celebrating its second anniversary, things are looking bright for the future of what I easily consider the best Battle Royale on the market right now.


Hyper Scape Review

We’ve Been Here Before

HIGH That soundtrack absolutely rules.

LOW Navigating menus like a hub world.

WTF Yeah I’ve been in the pre-game lobby for a while now


Spellbreak Preview

If the success of Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout has taught us anything, it’s that it’s possible to make a successful battle royale without the use of guns or crafting. As the genre becomes increasingly popular, it’s interesting to see the different spins developers add to the ‘last person standing’ style of play. Spellbreak‘s twist? Fantasy.


Apex Legends Review

Titanrise

HIGH The exciting swell of the soundtrack when dropping in.

LOW Most of the guns hold extremely small clips.

WTF It’s the rare battle royale game that doesn’t feel like a me-too rush job.


H1Z1: Battle Royale Review

Better Than Radical Heights, I Guess

HIGH The usual thrill of placing high among such a large group of players.

LOW The game is ugly to the point of being difficult to read.

WTF Incentivizing cosmetic rewards in a game with zero visual panache.
