FTLoTG – Splitgate: Arena Warfare Review

16.06.2019

Review by, William Griston, For Love of the Game – Gigamax Games Contributor Splitgate: Arena Warfare was created by an extremely small indie studio called 1047 Games and is the bastard lovechild of Halo and Portal. It is one of those games that you never knew you wanted and once you got it you cannot get enough. The developers have a public discord server and frequently interact with the community and take suggestions to heart, for better or worse. With a ton of...

Satisfactory Review: A Factory Sandbox on an Alien Planet Satisfactory is the factory building simulator concocted by the gents that brought us Goat Simulator….of all games. The gameplay loop is simple enough: mine valuable natural resources to build machines that help you mine for natural resources so you can design factories that expedite the mining of resources, ad infinitum. The joy is in the planning and exploration as you traverse lush alien planets in search of natural mineral deposits to...

Sega Dreamcast was ahead of its time, changing gaming into something better. It was launched 16 months before Sony PlayStation II and 3 years before Xbox. Sadly, this console failed to reach its full potential and was forgotten by most players. However, some still adore its games and they can play them on PC, using emulators and ROMS from Gamulator. We found 5 games in particular that are truly stunning, even today. 1. Crazy Taxi Millions adored this game in...

INSIDE Review: For Love of the Game Review by, William Griston, For Love of the Game – Gigamax Games Contributor INSIDE is the spiritual successor to Playdead’s previous game, LIMBO, and it wears that mantle well. INSIDE was released on Steam, PS4, and Xbox One in 2016 by Playdead. This game is a “trial and death” game much like what Playdead had labeled LIMBO. Thematically both games are dark, but most of LIMBO’s grit comes from the ambiance, whereas INSIDE’s melancholy is...

Review by, William Griston, For Love of the Game – Gigamax Games Contributor Surviving Mars was created by the Bulgarian Haemimont Games and published by Paradox Interactive from Sweden. It was released on Windows, OS X, Linux, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on March 15, 2018. The game follows in the footsteps of Cities: Skylines (Another Paradox game) and SimCity (Maxis). Not quite what I was expecting After spending almost a hundred hours on the indie company Magruda Works’ Planetbase, another game...

Review by, William Griston - Gigamax Games Contributor Designed by the Superhot Team from Poland, Superhot was initially created for 7DFPS in 2013 before being worked into a more fleshed out game by the aforementioned Superhot has you enter a matrix-like grey-scaled world where the only bits of color are the endless hordes of Red dudes.

For Love of the Game: Sea of Thieves Review Review by, William Griston - Gigamax Games Contributor Rare always managed to excite my imagination, starting with their entries in the Donkey Kong Franchise on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, and the Highly Underrated(amongst people who haven't played it, that is) Conker's Bad Fur Day on the Nintendo 64. When Microsoft acquired Rare from Nintendo in the early 2000s, I was pretty disheartened. I had expected the monolithic...
