Resident Evil 9 DLC Leaked and Resident Evil 10 Slated for 2029 Resident Evil 9 is set to be released on February 27th, and many are already excited for the return of

Leaks are claiming that, unsurprisingly, Resident Evil Requiem should have DLC this year. A little more eyebrow-raising is that Resident Evil 10 is supposedly planned to release in 2029, without any potential delays, of course.

16. Deathloop (100%)

I beat this forever ago, but went back for the completion. As much as I'll always be sad to likely never see Dishonored again, this is a good game. The 100% on this is tedious, though, with how much back and forth you have to do.

High on Life, or Simple and Guided There aren’t that many games I can say that caused me to laugh the whole way through, but the first

The first High on Life was funny, but it didn't leave a lasting mark. Does a game need to be more than funny to stay in your mind? Our newest writer, Daniel Gardner, explores this.

15. Far Cry 3 Classic (100%)

None of these games have a good story, but that's a laughably BAD story with one of the worst cast of characters. My first time playing this and I was a little letdown with how much people talked it up. I think Far Cry 5 is much more fun and chaotic. A little overrated.

@tierlistgaming.bsky.social continues to be a ton of fun and gain steam. That said I do have to start thinking about season 2 πŸ‘€

So any potential guests who wanna bring a game for the tier list, start letting me know!

Down Among the Dead Men Review (Xbox): Hard to Judge Beyond the Cover I’ve played all kinds of video games in my life. Some have been story games with little to no gameplay,

Down Among the Dead Men is software that lacks inspiration beyond being a choose-your-own-adventure book read aloud by an AI voice. Support your local library instead of buying this.

Echo Isle is a solo-developed game that has the Zelda GBC look down. I played its short demo and came away impressed.

Gaming in general isn't in the best of spots now, but is there any sign of relief in the future for the traditional home console? Maybe not.

14. A Game About Digging a Hole (100%)

Kind of mind-numbing, but easy achievements. Nothing really special to talk about besides what's up with those moles at the bottom? Going from the top upgrades to the basic gear with a new game is painful.

As someone who loves co-op games and really enjoyed the little co-op in AC Unity (which also was a very good game that had a bad launch), this sucks. How long can these things possibly go on at Ubisoft?

People like to laugh at me when I say that 2025 was one of the best years of Overwatch, and 2026 only looks to build on that. Here's a breakdown I pre-recorded of everything announced in the Overwatch Spotlight.

12. Highguard (100%)

It's a 6/10. Not bad, but nothing special by any means. The whole loot system sucks, the gear-up portion is boring, the reinforce section is pointless, and damage feels inconsistent to me. That said, there are intense moments that make it worth the grind for achievements.

There was a lot to like about Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream in yesterday's Direct, but Nintendo's blocking of social features in the upcoming game did cause for the usual eyebrow raise with them.

After playing a few hours of Highguard on stream my impressions are....

It's fine.

Some really fun moments, but not necessarily anything special. Also, the performance on it dips so hard at times where it's almost unplayable. Mostly lame characters, the stock-up portion is incredibly boring.
