Did you pass on Hogwarts Legacy at launch due to middling or minimal interest? Your author is no particular fan of the Harry Potter series or the Wizarding World, yet was still quite taken with the game's gorgeous graphics, expansive environments, and tricky skill-based combat. While it wasn't in as sad a state as... Read more...
Hogwarts Legacy launched in a reasonably decent state—ray-tracing performance problems aside. The game was fully completable and had no common crash or progression-stop bugs, which is sadly above the bar for a new AAA title these days. That's not to say the game was flawless, though; like any big game release... Read more...
Whatever your feelings on J.K. Rowling or the Harry Potter franchise, it's impossible to deny that Hogwarts Legacy has been a massive, smash hit.

To say that WB Games release of Batman: Arkham Knight for the PC was a disaster would be putting it lightly. The game was released early in the summer and was riddled with bugs, performance issues and gameplay maladies that made angered gamers. WB Games screwed up so badly with Batman: Arkham Knight that it took... Read more...
We learned just a couple of weeks ago of an interim patch that would be hitting Batman: Arkham Knight, and lo and behold, it's arrived. The biggest focus of this patch is performance, remedying issues that have persisted since launch. These include frame rate drops, poor memory usage, and generally poor... Read more...
There will be no Mortal Kombat X for either the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 console, not now, not ever. Unfortunately for fans of the franchise rocking one of those last generation game consoles, porting a version over has proved too difficult a task for the developers, so WB Games pulled the plug.
