Initial rumblings about the expansion pack are good. It’s an important one for Bungie who have made big changes to Exotic weapon and armour rules in advance of the […]
The Dark Below prologue
Are you sticking with Destiny? I’ve not made time for Destiny in a while but I still feel faithful to the game. Like everyone else; I need more content. I’m not in the PvP camp. The Dark Below looks pretty interesting. You can tell the plan straight away when the prologue mentions Croata’s dad. No […]
20 roleplay clans for Destiny
Are you playing Destiny? This is Bungie’s first game since Halo. It’s dividing the gaming community. Some gamers find it incredibly addictive.

The roleplayers’ analysis of Microsoft’s E3 – so far
E3 is the big game expo. It’s Monday and Microsoft have been speaking. Let’s take a look at their announcements and have a go at sorting the games into roleplaying tiers.

Sponsored Video: Spying on The Evil Within
Early last year Geek Native showed The Evil Within trailer. The game is a partnership between Skyrim’s Bethesda and the creator of Resident Evil. Trailers are one way to get a feel for a game but in a way they undersell the sort of immersive horrors that Shinji Mikami is known for. We’re all pretty […]
