Best Vampire Novels In 2024

Vampires are some of the greatest monsters in modern culture. From their roots as a disconnected set of superstitions, some of which were deeply bigoted, they have formed and evolved into one of the greatest terrors ever to stalk the night. They have featured heavily in fiction for hundreds of years, and, in the modern day, have evolved into a fascinating character archetype. Some modern readers have bemoaned the demystification, science-fictionization, and demonsterfication of the vampire, but the best portrayals of these entities succeed at being deeply disturbing while also carrying amazing pathos....

Delta Force: Hawk Ops Preview-To-Play FPS Cocktail

The FPS genre might not be my favourite in gaming (it’s platformers, in case you were wondering), but it’s one I still have a lot of love for. FromMedal of HonorandOverwatchtoTitanfallandTeam Fortress 2, I’ve put a lot of time into shooters over the years, and have given pretty much all of them a good old-fashioned college try. While I like to think that I’m well-versed, there are a few gaps in my FPS resume, such asGoldeneyeandQuake, that I’ve intended to play but simply never found the time....

Dragon Age: The Veilguard's New Combat Is As Predictable As It Is Disappointing

BioWarehas a lot riding onDragon Age: The Veilguard. The highly anticipated fourth game will be the studio’s follow-up to the ill-fatedMass Effect: AndromedaandAnthem, both of which failed to grab fans as thoroughly as the studio’s earlier games did. The Veilguard is BioWare’s chance to break that losing streak and regain the trust of its loyal fanbase once again. And if it doesn’t, I’m unsure where it leaves the studio. While you might think the easiest way for BioWare to do this is by retaining major mechanics that players already know and love, it seems like the studio is mixing it up a little....

Every Play Session Is Climactic In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirthhas a fascinating gameplay loop that I haven’t seen in any other games… except inFinal Fantasy 7 Remake. Though Rebirth’s open world interludes distinguish it from Remake, it’s extremely similar to its predecessor when it narrows its focus for the linear stretches. You explore an area, fighting groups of enemies as you go. You might need to solve puzzles too — in my most recent session, Yuffie grappled through a series of swings as she attempted to restore power to the area’s elevators....
