Warcraft Review: "Hayters Gonna Hate"

All the countless hours I have spent battling, questing, gathering, looting and killing across Azeroth I have waited for this day; a day when a Warcraft movie came to us. Now I have to start by saying, I am a pretty avid fan. I am in no means a grandmaster of knowledge in all things Warcraft but I have read the lore, played Warcraft 3, the expansion Frozen Throne. I started as a wee Human Paladin in Elwynn Forest and revisit WoW almost every year. With that said, let's get down to business.

What I want from Nintendo NX: An "H"-onest Opinion

Nintendo has been a staple for gaming throughout my entire life. I've owned every one of their home consoles aside from Gamecube, and I have always played their big name titles. The Nintendo NX (which is still a codename) arrives in March 2017, and there are a few things I'll be looking for before I choose to sink my money and my hopes into this new console...or whatever it is.

Overwatch: "Nerf this!"...But really, nerf that.

For just over a week now, we've been escorting payloads, blowing up RIP-tires, "breaking it down!", and most of all, running for dear life from High Noon. Unfortunately, it seems that we're going to have to keep ducking into buildings when we hear McCree speak those terrifying words. But it looks like I won't have to wake my neighbors from raging after I get hit with what I've been calling the "Flash and Fan Combo" for much longer from McCree...or at least maybe not as much.

The Legend of Zelda: Looking Back to Move Forward

In anticipation of Nintendo’s imminent E3 presentation for the latest Legend of Zelda title, we count down the series five best while discussing what each game can teach Nintendo about crafting the very best yet.

The day is finally upon us.  Take all the rumors, negative fanboy backlash, your fake NX leaked controller pictures, and throw it all straight into the garbage.  Nobody cares.  Nintendo is finally ready to unleash its baby, The Legend of Zelda for Wii U (and apparently NX), and show it to the world in a day long stream containing all new game footage, two lengthy hour and a half demos, as well as developer commentary and interviews. So strap in, sharpen your Master Sword, tell Navi to shut up, and lets go save Hyrule.

X-Men: Apocalypse Official Review

In order to really review this movie you need a clear understanding on what 20th Century FOX is trying to do with the franchise. This goes all the way back to 2011's X-­Men: First Class, which in essence was an unofficial try at a series reboot. This was solidified by the follow up movie X:Men: Days of Futures Past, which using the characters and setup from First Class, successfully pulled off one of the most impressive franchise reboots while almost unanimously pleasing both fans of the first X-Men trilogy (henceforth to be referred to as the Wolverine Sagas) and the fans of the First Class franchise by using a clever multiple time line trick which is right at home in not only the X-­Men universe but comic books in general.

Overwatch Official Review: "We're all soldiers now."

As I put down Overwatch for the first time all evening to write this review, I found myself struggling to do so because I kept wanting to play just "one more match". Overwatch wonderfully finds a balance between being a competitive game that's difficult to master, but still easy enough for new players to pick up and contribute. The large group of playable characters in Overwatch keeps every match feeling fresh and new, in addition to the number of maps that all have different points of entry, defensive options, choke points, and more. I kept wanting to try each character in Overwatch as they all do a great job of helping out your team in some fashion by having defined roles of either offense, defense, tank, or support.

Today's News: VR for Xbox One, New 007, and GTA Online?

I remember back when PS4 announced virtual reality for their console. I also remember saying to myself they're going to have to make a stronger console, otherwise the VR wouldn't work. Fast forward to the Sony announcement for the PS4 upgrade. But how about Xbox One? We know that Microsoft is developing VR for the Xbox One, but its no secret that the Xbox One is inferior in power compared to the PS4. So if the PS4 needed to step up their hardware game, then the Xbox One definitely has to.

Overwatch: Initial Impressions

Hey guys!

So yesterday was the day that we all (especially Bill) have been waiting for! ...Or was it today? You confuse us Blizzard. Anyways, Overwatch launched and we here at Chronocide, along with our friends have all been attacking, defending, shooting, and mostly raging our normal sleep hours away. Which is leading to extra cups of coffee, energy drinks, turbo shots, you name it. But its all in great fun. We're killing two birds with one stone - time and lifetime years remaining!
