(AfroGamers.com) While chatting with a good friend about open-world crime games, we got around to discussing Saints Row. From 2006 until 2022, the game was developed by Volition and underwent directional changes as the lore of the titular Saints gang grew. Two strengths for Saints Row included always having fun ...
(AfroGamers.com) There are some video game titles that are worthy of remake or a reboot. What makes them worthy varies by studio and gamer. A studio could decide that a poorly received title deserves another shot because development technology and hardware have gotten better. Maybe the studio can get it ...
(AfroGamers.com) So, after a lengthy wait for anything resembling a trailer, Rockstar Games dropped the goods for Grand Theft Auto VI. It’s a dead horse at this point but it has to be mentioned: the last GTA game came out in 2013. Since then, Rockstar worked heavily on GTA Online ...
(AfroGamers.com) Gearbox’s Borderlands is a franchise I missed out on when the games first dropped. I was probably busy playing Elder Scrolls IV or Fallout 3 at the time. It’s odd because this is definitely a franchise I would’ve enjoyed if I played it back then. The first time I ...
(AfroGamers.com) I’m not the biggest horror fan but I dig zombie films and comics. Video games—it depends. A legendary series like Resident Evil never really appealed to me—then again, I never gave it that strong of chance. It’s odd because I gave Dino Crisis a go, beat it and the ...

The game came out in early 2013, over a year before Bungie released the first Destiny game. I mention Destiny because Warframe comes off as something of a third-person version of Destiny—which is ...
(AfroGamers.com) EverQuest is one of Sony’s longest-running franchises and pretty much the only one that has always been active. It’s an older MMORPG meaning it’s a truly living game. As long as enough of a player base exists, so will it. Currently, EverQuest (1999) and EverQuest II (2004) are still ...
(AfroGamers.com) In 1979, the Eagles released “I Can’t Tell You Why”. The song was a hit off their album The Long Run. That statement comes to mind when wondering what it is I love about Ubisoft games. They’re a studio in my Big 3 along with Nintendo and Bethesda as ...
(AfroGamers.com) Ubisoft’s 2012 release Assassin’s Creed III is a title with a mixed reaction and while I typically don’t check impressions on a game until I’ve finished it, ACIII was an interesting case because early on many were annoyed by the game. Now, I tend to enjoy any Assassin’s Creed ...
