Yennefer's too
If you've already played through The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and romanced the fiery haired Triss Merigold, then there's a chance that you feel as though her relationship with Geralt left something to be desired.

News Here's Mad Max's Huge Open World Map From End to End
That's a lot of dust
Mad Max has had the misfortune of releasing on the same day as one of the most highly anticipated titles of 2015, and although we doubt that it'll be able to outperform Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain when it comes to sales, it still looks like a decent enough open world romp all the same. And, as with any game that's got...

News Rev Your Engines for Mad Max's Exclusive PS4 Content
Actually, don't bother
Mad Max – a game which has the dubious honor of launching at exactly the same time as a new title in the Metal Gear Solid franchise – hits store shelves very soon, so Sony has released a brand new trailer showing off the exclusive content its super machine will be receiving. To be honest, it's pretty underwhelming: you'll...

Raking in the coin
According to CD Projekt Red's latest financial report, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt sold through more than 6 million units in its first six weeks on the market.

Review Gauntlet: Slayer Edition (PS4)
On target

Like many games of old, Gauntlet: Slayer...

Wasteland wanderer
Mad Max is about more than flying fists and exploding vehicles – who knew?

Poll Which Batman: Arkham Game Is the Best?
Step from the shadows
That's right, we're going to ask that question - a question that has divided the gaming community ever since Batman: Arkham City launched all the way back in 2011. Which Batman: Arkham game is the best? It's safe to say that Batman: Arkham Asylum exceeded all expectations when it released in 2009, and the aforementioned sequel...
News Batman: Arkham Knight's PS4 Leaderboards Are Busted
Gotham's not-so greatest
Batman: Arkham Knight's probably not the first game that you'd think of when it comes to well integrated leaderboards, but we're actually quite fond of the way in which the title keeps track of both your progress through the campaign and your performance in AR Missions. At least we were, until they went offline. Like many,...

First Impressions Batman: Arkham Knight PS4 Sure Is Fighting Fit
Alright on the Knight
Holy awkward release date, Batman – you contrary cowl connoisseur.
