Hitman Out of the Shadows
I want to start of by saying that I am a HUGE fan of the game series. Having played all titles (including the addictive 'Hitman GO'), I dread to think how many hours I spent trying to achieve the rank of 'Silent Assassin'. Sneaking and skulking in the shadows, stalking and inevitably stealthily taking down my targets were par for the course. An ingredient the movies just couldn't capture.

Main Causes of VR Simulation Sickness and Ways to Avoid It
VR has become popular among gamers since it was first introduced because it gives them a more immersive playing experience, and there is a plethora of choices from which they can choose. While it’s not in everyone’s price range, VR can make you feel as if you’re in the game itself. As a lifelong gamer, the idea is exciting, but the hefty price tag is enough to bring me back to my senses. I would also need to have a beast of a PC to run it.

Best NES Video Games
The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), named by IGN the greatest video game console in history, is absolute video gaming royalty, along with all the NES games. Spawning blockbuster franchises like Super Mario, Ninja Gaiden, Metroid and Zelda, they still have huge fan bases today. The classic 8-bit graphics make you really how the console must have felt so state of the art in 1983. Luckily for NES fans, the NES Classic Mini was released at the end of 2016 with all of the classic NES games to relive those memories, or see where these huge titles first began.

What Is an Achievement Hunter and How to Become One
An achievement hunter is a person on Xbox who hunts for something called achievements. Achievements are in every Xbox game that comes out. Every time a game is released the achievement list for the game is always released first so that Xbox achievement hunters can know what they're up against before the game is released, kind of like giving a gamer a small look at what the game is gonna be like before it is released to the public. If you were to go to a website, for example, TrueAchievements.com, they will display a list of all of the latest achievement lists revealed. People are then able to see if the game is going to be easy to complete or if it is going to take some time to complete and grind some of the achievements, for example, lego games. Lego games are the main games that are known for taking their time to grind achievements, because of the grinding you have to do to in order to collect studs in the games.

Night In The Woods Review
There is a character in Infinite Fall’s Night in the Woods who sits on a stoop and spits poetry at you, if you allow her to. Her name is Selmers, and at the start of each new day, she offers such high quality verses as: My heart is a dankness | But when I see you | I feel a thankness

Why I Love Animal Crossing
The Nintendo Switch launched on 3rd March 2017, ushering a new start and era for Nintendo. Out of all their IP's (Intellectual Property) Animal Crossing is one of the safest bets to make a return. Coupled with the fact that we've been without a new title since 2013 it's about time Animal Crossing makes a comeback. It's a franchise that sells by the bucket-loads and has become one of Nintendo's flagship franchises in breaking the so called mold between the hobbyist gamer and the casual gamer. But why do I and others love it so much? Well that's what I'm here to talk about, though I hopefully won't ramble on as much as Blathers.

Ruffin Prentiss: The Voice Behind Watch Dog 2's Marcus
The acting triple threat: Theatre, Film, and... Video Games? In recent years the gaming world has exploded with exponential opportunities for actors to lend their talents in motion capture and voice acting. From new comers like Kit Harrington in Call of Duty and Natalie Dormer in Mass Effect, to seasoned veterans like Nolan North (Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, and more) and Mark Hamill (Star Wars and Batman: Arkham City), video game characters are crafted with a professional, engaged, and ever-memorable touch from the actors who play them.Ruffin Prentiss, who plays Marcus Holloway in Watch Dogs 2, is now on the exclusive list of video game protagonists that the public will play, re-play, and play some more for the times to come. To him, the most beautiful aspect about video game performances is that they mirror real life - just like any role and story we've seen in film. And with the constant evolution of video game technology, characters are more life-like than ever. Prentiss discusses the fascinating process of mocap, Marcus, gaming systems, and more in this exclusive interview:
