Yellow Belt

Splatoon 2 Review

Goal Makers, Life Takers, Don’t You Mess Around With Me
HIGH Letting the other team charge the battery to 100% and then stealing it.

Dreadnought Preview
When I was growing up, everyone wanted to be a TIE Fighter or X-Wing pilot. Not me. I always had my eye on the larger ships — I wanted to be in command of the Star Destroyer. Those mammoth vessels were crewed by a few hundred people and bristled with enough firepower to annihilate a small fleet. The developers at Yager seem to have shared my affinity for capital ships in their upcoming game, Dreadnought.
Raiders Of The Broken Planet Preview
Raiders of the Broken Planet is an interesting proposition. Self-funded by Spanish Developers MercurySteam (a team not known for their online skills) the game is an asymmetrical multiplayer third-person shooter that tries to set a balance between guns and melee. The beta itself does a lot to give me hope for the full game, but that hope comes with caveats.
Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Wildlands Review
The War On Drugs Is… Really Repetitive

WTF All the bugs and jank.
For Honor Review
At Least There’s No Tower Climbing
HIGH A duel against a player of equal skill level.
LOW What passes for a single-player campaign.
WTF “You cannot join this session because it is full.” Then why did you put me there, game?!
