(AfroGamers.com) Nintendo could have blown this one up to twice the size. They chose not to, and that choice is pretty much the whole point. Think back to 1998, when the original hit the Nintendo 64. None of us were out here counting square miles. What stuck was the feeling ...
(AfroGamers.com) Elder Scrolls is a franchise where anything magic, supernatural or paranormal can exist and often overlap. I’ve always been interested in the paranormal aspect of TES because Bethesda worked on it over the years to make it a path worth exploring. Case in point: vampires and werewolves in Tamriel. ...
(AfroGamers.com) Last year, we went into five games that warrant a sequel with Obsidian’s Alpha Protocol being one of the titles. Published by Sega, AP was very much an Obsidian RPG in execution featuring a social aspect that is largely missing from many RPGs. You have a series like Persona ...

(AfroGamers.com) Nobody saw this one coming. Well, a few sharp folks did, but most of us who ride for this franchise walked into that 2024 Xbox showcase expecting a big number 6 on the box and the next chapter of Kait’s tangled mess. What we got instead was a trip ...
(AfroGamers.com) Boot up a Game Boy in 1996, when Pokémon Red and Green first arrived in Japan, and you got a screen the color of pond scum. Four murky shades of green doing their best impression of color. It should have looked cheap. Instead, it felt like you were holding ...
(AfroGamers.com) I’ve been revisiting the Infamous games lately. I finished the first two games some years ago and we’re going to get into the three main games but let’s talk about the game world itself and the OG conduit. The term “conduit” is used for any being that can use ...
