Who said spooky cannot also be cute? Polterpup may be a ghost, but it still has all its dog charm. Also, the name is adorable. Fans were very excited when they learned they could pet Polterpup in Luigi's Mansion

Players fell in love with this companion the moment they saw him as a little puppy in Snake's hands . D-Dog (also known as DD) and Snake even got matching eye patches. You get to see the dog grow from a puppy to a grizzled military dog. Before you know it, the dog is sniffing out and taking down enem

Due to the highly-publicized fallout between Hideo Kojima and Konami, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain came out in a brutally unfinished state. One can see where work stopped on the title's story and it was rushed out to mar

An overall score of 85 ain't bad if we're talking games like Fallout 4 or maybe Modern Warefare, but South Park The Stick of Truth is a masterpiece, fan of the show or not. It's one of the best of its genre - something that is on the level of games like Skyrim, Mass Effect 2 and Witche

Today, several games were shown during Microsoft Japanese studio's Inside Xbox event, the first of a series of events that are being planned over the next few months. With a first-party event planned for July, the focus was on third-party games coming to Xbox Series X, and while the Assassin's Creed: Valhalla "gameplay" reveal was the star attraction, there was a surprising number of next-gen horror games featured in the showc

The short open-world nature of this title allows for a ton of character present across each and every facet of this title. Of course, it helps that A Short Hike also features numerous calming moments that truly add the cherry on top of this short yet delightful experie

Because it was the last great one that actually brought something new to the table and for a long time the last Madden to be playable on PC. So While we promised no other sports games, we're going to have to break that to chastise critics for continually praising the series past this po

The mabari companion in Dragon Age: Origins is the one unquestionably faithful friend in the party. No matter what the Warden does, the dog remains loyal. Like other companions, it can be part of banter while the player explores. This results in a lot of humorous relationships between companions and the

That's not always the case, however; be it a short story, small world size, or development oversight, certain open-world titles barely stretch beyond a few hours. Though length isn't necessarily indicative of quality, here are some super short open-world video ga

This boss fight broke a lot of hearts, as you had to defeat a wolf that was protecting the grave of its fallen comrade. First of all, the wolf's design is awesome. It is huge, epic, and carries a giant sword. Also, its backstory is very tragic. Players felt very strongly about this boss fight due to the lore behind the wolf and its dead compan

Arkham City might not be one of the longest open-world titles around — especially if players are only going to go through the main story — but the game is still a blast regardless. There's a reason why most people still consider it to be the best chapter in the Arkham tril

Molyneux has become well known at this point for his big and revolutionary ideas, which often end up being beyond the scope of the reality of the games he develops. When the original Fable launched on the original Xbox in 2004, it did not quite have that grand journey that had been promised (although it was close). But, now 16 years later, perhaps technology and design have progressed enough to allow some of those promises and dreams for Fable to finally become a real

Although its current window of release is unknown, Techland's Dying Light 2 is one of the bigger games known about so far. It was delayed from its spring 2020 window, instead likely releasing sometime this fall. And when it does, it has been confirmed to be a cross-gen release on PS5 and Xbox Series

Argos is one of the newest dogs to gaming, playing an important role in Final Fantasy 14: Endwalker and later being accessible as a mount for players to ride on. The golden-haired dog belonged to Venat a very long time ago but has survived the test of time due to being a familiar rather than your average ani

For fans of the Fable games, the potential for Microsoft to produce another mainline entry in the series, instead of outings like Fable: The Journey and Fable Legends , is certainly exciting. Bringing back this Xbox-exclusive franchise could be a great move for Xbox, especially as it enters into a new console generation. If Microsoft plays its cards right, Fable could end up being the Breath of the Wild in Xbox's portfo

Fiction's most famous secret agent has made undeniable contributions to the medium. GoldenEye 007 on the N64 revolutionized the first-person shooter and local multiplayer games. After the 1997 masterpiece, a steady stream of releases came through until 2012 when 007 Legends stopped it all in its tracks. The compilation of famous playable set pieces throughout the franchise was panned as one of the worst first-person shooters in recent memory. Since then, not even murmurs of a new game have popped up. Given the character's relationship to the medium, he deserves a glorious ret
