Middle Earth: Shadow of War Review

Three fourths epic.

Shadow of War is simultaneously the most fun I’ve had all year and one of my disappointments for 2017.

Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor Review

He is the snake to my mongoose. Or the mongoose to my snake. Either way, it’s bad. I don’t know animals.

Warner Bros. announced earlier today that Guardians of Middle-earth is the next big MOBA game on the way. The title is being developed by Warner Bros. Monolith Productions and slotted to be released for both the Xbox Live Arcade and Play Station Network sometime this fall.

Gotham City Imposters Dated

Online Beta also dated and it starts sooner than you may expect.

It’s been a while since the Batman-themed multiplayer First Person Shooter was announced, but we haven’t heard a whole heck of a lot about when we could expect to see the game.  That changed today and you’ll be happy to know that you’ll be taking shots at batman look-alikes and Joker posers sooner than later.
