What On Earth Is The Future Of Gaming Anyway?

Another new console generation is now upon us with the Xbox Series X and the PS5. You can bet that Nintendo is preparing for their next step in the console wars too. It’s fair to say that both of the latest consoles are going to have some impressive advancements. The Series X is expected to be the most powerful gaming console ever created. The PS5 has been designed to ensure that you can gain the benefits of 3D sound, regardless of what display you are using, although will likely start by ensuring that this works with headphones. Ray tracing is a big buzzword right now due to the impact it’s going to have on the graphics of the games. There’s also a rumor – it’s unconfirmed – that long load terms will be a problem of the past

Board Games That Never Go Out Of Fashion

Board Games That Never Go Out Of Fashion

When you were a child, it’s very likely you were introduced to board games from a young age. Depending on your age, these may have been anything from Draughts to Monopoly and even to the Game of Life! It was the best time on a rainy afternoon to play board games, and while our gaming has evolved massively over the years, we do still have board games kicking around in the toy stores and online!

Guns, Gore & Cannoli

Guns, Gore & Cannoli

Take on the mob, the military, and the undead in this Mafia-themed 2D shooter. Playing as a mob enforcer named Vinnie, this game unleashes players on a city that has been overrun by the living dead. A large arsenal of weapons makes for a fun shooter, but the controls are a little stiff, and the adventure is sadly short-lived. Nevertheless, the game does have its moments and provides plenty of mayhem while it lasts.

Gameplay: Shooting zombies in the head is always fun.

Graphics: The art style is detailed and unique.

Sound: The music and one-liners make it sound like a Mafia B-movie

Sakura Beach

Sakura Beach

Sakura Beach is a typical fan service focused visual novel with a generic storyline, implausible situations, and rather generic characters. Watching childhood friends Ayumi and Momoko practically throw themselves at the completely oblivious Seiji can be amusing, but overall there isn’t a lot here that players will remember after completing the game.

Gameplay: Six choices that lead to one of three different endings.

Graphics: Vibrant backgrounds and character sprites are decent.

Sound: Rather generic

Roundabout

Roundabout

Roundabout is a game about traversing narrow city streets to get your passengers to their destination. The catch is that your limousine constantly rotates, so good timing is required to avoid hitting obstacles and blowing up. It is a very short game, but lots of fun, and the cheesy FMV scenes must be seen to be believed. The game is also very forgiving, so anyone should be able to enjoy it despite the challenging concept.

Gameplay: Requires timing and patience, but successfully dodging obstacles is very satisfying.

Graphics: Not spectacular, but colorful and charming.

Sound: The soundtrack is very fitting, as is the unconvincing voice-acting

Bulb Boy

Bulb Boy

Bulb Boy is a strange point-and-click adventure-style game about a boy with a bulb for a head trying to save his family from the evil that took over their house. It features some surprising elements for the genre, such as action scenes and boss battles, along with simple yet fun puzzles to solve. Some parts of the game can be annoying, and the game is relatively short despite its slow pace, but overall, it deserves a closer look.

Gameplay: Bulb Boy differs from your typical point-and-click adventure thanks to the twisted puzzles.

Graphics: The visuals are gory, gross, and actually quite good.

Sound: Bulb Boy features some unnerving sound effects and creepy music

Super Trench Attack!

Super Trench Attack!

Super Trench Attack! is a twin-stick shooter with a unique pixel art style and tons of goofy humor. It’s not particularly challenging or very long, but it is fun while it lasts and packs a bit more depth than you might think.

Gameplay: The game is a basic top-down shooter with some shooting galleries thrown in for good measure.

Graphics: The pixel art visuals are detailed and often quite humorous.

Sound: The game features exaggerated sound effects along with some fitting music

Star Sky

Star Sky

Star Sky is a mysterious, relaxing game about a man on a midnight walk. The stylish 2D silhouette visuals and ethereal soundtrack make for a very atmospheric game. However, it is also very short and can be completed without much of a challenge. Anyone looking for a traditional game will be disappointed by Star Sky, but open-minded players who enjoy unique gaming experiences will enjoy it.

Gameplay: Very short and simple, but also quite charming.

Graphics: Minimalistic but stylish.

Sound: Great ambient sounds and soothing music

Sakura Fantasy

Sakura Fantasy

Sakura Fantasy features an intriguing storyline, interesting characters, and beautiful artwork, but ends with too many unresolved questions. This wouldn’t have been so bad if the planned sequels were ever released, but unfortunately, this was not to be. Unfortunately, this means anyone playing the game for the story will be disappointed. However, players who are purely interested in the lewd content will find plenty here, especially after installing the optional uncensor patch.

Gameplay: Interesting until the story just ends without any real conclusion.

Graphics: The visuals look great is filled with the usual amount of fan service.

Sound: Decent Japanese voice acting and the soundtrack is good too
