ASSASSIN’S CREED ORIGINS / MARIO + RABBIDS / SKULL & BONES / FAR CRY 5 / SOUTH PARK [E3 2017]: Ubisoft!

I was able to spend a solid 15-minutes checking out the latest Assassin’s Creed Origins. While AC has always been a franchise that I’ve held near and dear to my heart (Black Flag was the last installment I thoroughly enjoyed), I tried my best to go in with a blank mindset -- trying to not …

MIDDLE-EARTH – SHADOW OF WAR [E3 2017]: Warner Bros Interactive!

It's usually hard to top WBIE's slate at #E3, but this year the company brought Middle-earth: Shadow of War, LEGOs, LEGOs and more.. LEGOs. Yeah, not the usual level of greatness veteran attendees are used to (Witcher, Arkham, Injustice, etc.). But there's a good reason why: Shadow of War was enough, despite my tempered expectations for …

CALL OF DUTY – WWII / DESTINY 2 / EXTINCTION [E3 2017]: Maximum Activision!

Remember that Call of Duty from way back when? Well, guess what: it's back. Almost exactly as you remember it.. if you're old enough to remember it. Call of Duty: WWII's weapons are heavy, the world is gritty, and you're covered in blood, but it's not your own. Private Ryan just got his head blown …

DRAGON BALL FIGHTERZ / PROJECT CARS 2 / NI NO KUNI II [E3 2017]: Bandai Namco!

While everyone's so busy at this massively crowded #E3 camping in line for the new Assassin's Creed, Spider-Man game, and next big Nintendo hit, yours truly had the pleasure of going behind closed doors with three of the show's most impressive demos, courtesy of Bandai Namco. Yes--the very same company thar delivered my #2 overall …
