I was given the opportunity to play a multitude of amazing games this past week at E3 2018. Most of which were big third-party titles like Resident Evil and Spiderman.

I happened to come across the game at an event known as The Mix and at first glance, it didn’t seem all that special....

After taking a crack at the Souls-like genre with Lords of the Fallen and finding some success, Deck13 Interactive immediately set to work on yet another game inspired by FromSoftware’s ultra-tough franchise with The Surge. The Surge immediately differentiated itself from the franchise that inspired it by ditching the medieval setting in favor of a sci-fi one, featuring a dystopian society, exoskeletons, deadly robots, and more. Now Deck13 has returned to The Surge universe with The Surge 2, a followup that is better than its predecessor, but still falls a bit short of reaching the same heights as the games that inspired it....

Considering the eight console generation is creeping to its close, the PlayStation 3 feels like a lifetime ago. It is almost difficult to believe that Sony’s previous console experienced its peak period during the first couple of years of this decade.
