Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Review (Xbox Series X)
A couple of years ago when Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny was announced with James Mangold directing, it was tough not to think that Mangold had a large task ahead of him. Taking an iconic character and putting together a story that was worthy of the previous entries in the Indiana Jones saga probably came with an ark load of pressure. Satisfying a fanbase that felt scorned from the last fi...[Read More]
Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – Preview (Hands-off)
This past week, Digitalchumps was privy to a preview from Bethesda Studios and MachineGames Studio about their game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. While the preview was hands-off, which I’m sure will change very soon, we did get some great insight about the game’s gameplay, timeline, and how it was trying to balance what makes up a good Indiana Jones adventure. Now, what we didn’t get during ...[Read More]
Redfall Review
It has been a rough week for the folks at Arkane with their recent release of Redfall, a vampire open-world game that has a setup that would make John Carpenter smile. The game is being hailed as something that fell short of expectations, even going as far as drawing ire from Xbox head of everything Phil Spencer. And, to be quite frank, none of what is being said or felt is entirely wrong. While R...[Read More]
Ghostwire – Tokyo – Review
A year removed from our original review of Ghostwire: Tokyo and it has finally made it to the Xbox. So, how did opinions change since last year? I’m glad you asked because that’s why I’m typing this review. Anyway, while the game still has some issues with pacing and content, the overwhelming feeling of dread and a city filled with unnerving creepiness still dominate the gameplay. While those attr...[Read More]
Hi-Fi Rush Review
It’s good to know that a more complicated and far more entertaining Space Channel 5 has entered the match. Hi-Fi Rush is an incredibly unique game that combines musical timing, action, witty humor, and compelling characters to put a beautiful feather in the cap of Microsoft’s Xbox Series X. Let’s get right into it. Story of a musician Well, sorta a musician. The story of Hi-Fi Rush revolves around...[Read More]
The Elder Scrolls Online: High Isle
The next chapter of the Legacy of the Bretons year-long event, High Isle, is here! And with it, a refreshing feel to The Elder Scrolls Online. The past few year-long events have been these epic quests where you must stop a threat to life on Tamriel as you know it. This year, we take a step back and look back toward the people of Tamriel. The Three Banners has been at the heart of ESO the entire ti...[Read More]
Ghostwire: Tokyo
Ghostwire: Tokyo thrives on pushing the malleable boundaries of open world games. I’m unsure how many players will go into playing Ghostwire: Tokyo expecting a wide, open city packed with collectibles. How many playing this will have experience with Tango Gameworks’ The Evil Within series and its rapid emphasis on larger explorable spaces? Within the first hours, Ghostwire: Tokyo provi...[Read More]
Lifting the Fog from Ghostwire: Tokyo
Ghostwire: Tokyo has remained elusive since its slick, stylish E3 2019 debut. In the three years that have followed, the handful of moments where Tango Gameworks’ first non-The Evil Within game has appeared did little to lift the veil. This is from the studio founded by Shinji Mikami, the name behind Resident Evil. It looks steeped in Japanese folklore and horror. And the main character̷...[Read More]

Ghostwire: Tokyo Impressions
Digitalchumps had the opportunity to get in on some early access of Ghostwire: Tokyo from Bethesda. It was a cool event, though a bit brief, but we acquired some great information about the PlayStation exclusive. Without further unnecessary blabbing, let’s get right into things. BATSHIT Crazy What we know about the story Around 100,000 people have vanished without a trace in Tokyo. People’s clothe...[Read More]
The Elder Scrolls Online x Trivium
ZeniMax brought us a wonderful new surprise today with Matt Heafy's cover of "Reach Witch Chant," as well as a new single from Trivium. I was able to sit down with Matt Heafy as well as a couple of ZeniMax directors to get their insight about the collaboration.
Deathloop
Deathloop defies expectations. As a player who has keenly watched the numerous trailers for Deathloop since its announcement I went in expecting a number of things. When I first saw Colt teleport across a surface I thought, “Oh, that’s Blink from Dishonored.” When the cyclical, time-looping plot was revealed I thought, “Oh, that’s the trippy narrative from Prey.”...[Read More]
