It’s raining free Xbox games! Only a few days after Fallout 4 accidentally went on sale for $0.00 on the Xbox Store, the brilliant death simulator Limbo is now also free. Though this reduction looks more deliberate. The “try it free” and strike through the $9.99 price clearly show that this is meant to be…
GTA Online’s newest big free add-on is out today. Further Adventures In Finance and Felony adds the ability to serve as an in-game CEO as well as a “trading places” PvP mode that swaps you and the person you kill from one team to the other–if you were in the losing team. Sounds crazy! More…

The 2017 Xbox, which is codenamed Scorpio, will have a more powerful…
Glitches and wobbles aside, Homefront: The Revolution is an adequate shooter that features some interesting moments. It isn’t bad, but it isn’t good either. America was invaded by North Korea in the events leading up to the original 2011 Homefront. In this sequel, you play as Ethan Brady, part of a guerrilla resistance that is…
The new Doom, really, is rather like the old Doom. You fight swarms of hulking demons. You never stop moving for fear of being swamped in laser fire, missiles, and pile-driving hell knights.

Xbox France had three of these consoles made up as a promo for The Latest Comic Book Movie™. You can’t buy them, but you can look at them and wonder why we can’t at least get that controller. The console itself is…a bit much, though the arc reactor effect in the middle is nice. I’m…
