If you’ve been diving into the online beta for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, you’re probably wondering one thing: how do I improve my K/D ratio?

If you’re playing the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer beta right now, you’re probably wondering what the best loadout to bring to the battlefield is.
Wonder no more, as we’ve been getting into the nitty-gritty of the game (it’s excellent so far, by the way) and have some thoughts on what exactly should be in your kit.

“You have no idea what loss is,” says Joel, the gruff Texan protagonist of The Last of Us. Those of us that have loved Part I ever since it came out in 2013 might have some idea.

You’d be forgiven for thinking “Yomi” is an actual place in Japan. It’s not. Yomi, in Shinto mythology, is the land of the dead. It’s not exactly a place you’d want to take a vacation to, much less spend eternity in, but a brief visit in video game form is very worth your while.

Ghost of Tsushima has set the table nicely for samurais to carve (slice?) out a new niche in gaming. We’ve had plenty of ninjas but for some reason samurais never quite caught on. Until now, of course.

The chiseled chin of Bruce Campbell is known all over the world as audiences have watched him slay deadites and demons as Ash Williams from the ‘80s to present day. A very successful and enjoyable revival of the series even lasted three seasons on TV. There’s just something about the combo of a chainsaw arm and a boomstick that make for a great initiation into cult horror and B-movie culture.

If you watch it for yourself you’ll find there’s a lot more at work that makes Halo the series a mediocre slog. At the outset I didn’t really understand the criticism of the first episode, it wasn’t anything special but nothing hinted at the middling TV to come. But I get it now. I definitely get it.

Hard West 2 is a fine example of the modern turn-based combat game. While not a carbon copy of X-Com, it brings enough wild west charm and decent enough writing to entice any garden variety gamer as well as hardcore fans of the genre.

Depending on where you look, there’s a particularly angry and vocal chorus of fans dragging the show through mud for everything – from some sloppy CGI to Master Chief removing his helmet – something he’s yet to do in the game. I’ve sampled a heavy dose of the negative criticism of the show, and I want to ask anyone unhappy with it: What exactly were you expecting?

Shadow Warrior has had something of a strange journey as a franchise. What began as a Duke Nukem clone and later revived by studio Flying Wild Hog and publisher Devolver in 2013 now has a third installment. And going back to play the previous games for this review I can’t help but wonder why Shadow Warrior and its wisecracking protagonist Lo Wang (yes, his name is a penis joke) was ever revived from the obscure annals of gaming history to begin with.

The art indie game has crystalized over the years into a more or less recognizable format. There’s a silent protagonist, platforming, and top notch art and music. FAR: Changing Tides has all of these and just a little extra up its sleeve to engage you for its eight hours of play. If anything the game could have been longer, had more features, and more story – I found myself, by the end, craving all of the above.

There’s something to be said for difficult games. Cuphead, Dark Souls, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. There’s a real sense of accomplishment when you beat one of these; you can hold your head up high and say “wow, I actually beat that.” If that’s the kind of game you like, great, you’ll have a fantastic time with Sifu. If you’re the average person who thought you were getting into just a fun kung fu beat-em-up, well, I have some very bad news for you.

What could have been a refreshing take on the zombie genre – basically a SWAT team versus the undead – mostly falls flat. While it borrows some of the elements that have made Siege iconic, it doesn’t go nearly far enough.
