Dune: Spice Wars is a return to form for Shiro Games and an assurance that the debacle of Darkburg was an exception and not the norm.
After a promising start, a disastrous few years, and a return to glory, the world's most realistic survival game is about to leave early access, and for better or worse, the survival genre will never be the same.
Atlas could still become something special, but floundering on the rocks for almost four years has done little to assure the survival community of a positive outcome.
Titanfall 2 remains one of the greatest FPS in the genre's history and is a testament to why a poorly chosen launch window can greatly hinder the success of a near-perfect title.
While a radical departure from traditional Call of Duty mechanics failed to resonate with the majority of the COD community, it resulted in one of the best space shooters since Halo 2, despite losing the majority of its player base within just three months of launching.
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare was the Titanfall competitor that no one wanted or needed, and as a result, it failed to please longtime fans of Call of Duty nor attract enough new players to ensure its long-term survival.
With Covid-19 and Vanguard's lacklustre reception putting an end to any hope of a Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 remaster, playing the original 2011 release is the only way to experience the concluding chapter of the original Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Trilogy in 2023.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009) remains one of the most iconic and controversial video games in history, and while it has been remastered and remade twice, playing the original is still enjoyable for those who wish to experience it as it was originally intended.
Battlefield 1 is a must-play for any fans of the Battlefield franchise or first-person shooters.
