If you come at the king, you best not miss! Today, you decided to question Matty on all you’ve ever disagreed with him on. Starfield release windows, Danganronpa, the status of game franchises... it’s quite a vicious bout. Did I emerge victorious? Only you can decide!

For years, Ryan and I (Colin!) worked side-by-side at IGN, him on Xbox and me on PlayStation. We became fast friends during our time as coworkers, and Ryan ended up being one of my closest connections and confidants in the entire industry.

As you know, we (The Brothers Moriarty) grew up on Long Island, nestled between the water and the woods. It's the latter that we thought we'd focus this particular episode on. We absolutely adore the woods. Playing, hiking, exploring. We basically lived amongst the trees as children! Thus, w...

Xbox looks to be shifting to a next generation state of mind. First party studios inXile Entertainment, Ninja Theory, and now The Coalition have all moved their work to Unreal Engine 5. This setting up the alluring discussion of how quickly we can transition, if at all, into those generation defi...

For the first time since September, the mysterious and new IP from Bethesda Game Studios, Starfield, has suffered a major leak. While this is a rare occurrence for the company, I saw a rare opportunity to have a full investigation with a fellow Bethesda YouTuber to talk all things Starfield. An E...

We talk about video games and the video game industry, of course. But a lot of other things come up, too. In fact, Jaffe ends up interviewing me (?...

We've waited long enough: Housemarque's newest PlayStation game has arrived. Indeed, they always seem to be there in a second party capacity at launch, whether it's with Super Stardust for PS3 and Vita, or Resogun for PS4.

Epic and Apple are currently engaged in battle in the courtroom thanks to Fortnite’s mobile version which tried to circumvent the 30% cut Apple typically takes. Through that, we have seen all that occurs behind closed doors and it has been fascinating. For starters, a Phil Spencer e-mail that s...

People Can Fly's third-person cover shooter Outriders is one of 2021's most pleasant surprises so far, and it's garnered a lot of attention particularly on the Xbox side of the fence, where it's 'free' with Game Pass.

When it comes to 2005's God of War -- which launched that year on PlayStation 2 courtesy of Santa Monica Studio -- one can't help but see how important it was (and still is) to so many of the 3D action games we play today. Inspired by ...
