Crime Boss: Rockay City was one of the bigger surprises to come out of The Game Awards last year: a brand new video game property from a relatively unknown studio, featuring a star-studded cast of relatively well-known actors – with a hard release date just a few months away, no less! The slick, colorful reveal trailer definitely turned some heads, but it also raised some eyebrows, since it focused more on who is in the game rather than what you’ll actually be doing. After an hour and a half of hands-on time with Crime Boss: Rockay City, I now have a much clearer idea of what it actually is, but I also came away even more skeptical that it can actually achieve what it’s setting out to do. Crime Boss is fundamentally a first-person shooter, but it aspires to be an ‘organized crime game,’ meaning stealth, strategy, and careful preparation will likely yield more favorable results than going in guns blazing. The obvious comparison to make is to Payday, the co-op bank heist series, but my...

Warning: Full spoilers ahead for episode 7 of HBO's The Last of Us. HBO's The Last of Us episode 7 has arrived and this time we see Ellie and Riley reunite for a surprise trip to the mall just like The Last of Us: Left Behind DLC. But how close does the show compare to the game? To help answer this question, we've gathered images from episode 7 of HBO's The Last of Us and put them next to stills from Naughty Dog's The Last of Us game to see how faithful the adaptation is. Check out the slideshow, or watch the video above to see the scenes from both the show and the game in action. In our The Last of Us episode 7 review, we said it "is a beautifully faithful adaptation of the beloved Left Behind chapter of Ellie’s story. A real showcase for Bella Ramsey’s ability as a performer, we’re treated to a story of young love that is equal parts heartwarming as it is heartbreaking. It’s also a necessary tale to be told; a flashback that gives us a deeper understanding...

Warning: Full spoilers ahead for episode 6 of HBO's The Last of Us. Episode 6 of HBO's The Last of Us has arrived and, just like in the game, it reunites Joel and Tommy and ends in dramatic fashion at the University. But, how close does the show compare to the game? To help answer this question, we've gathered images from episode 6 of HBO's The Last of Us and put them next to stills from Naughty Dog's The Last of Us to see how faithful the adaptation is, and you can check it out below. Additionally, the video above will let you see the scenes from both the show and the game in action. In our review of episode 6 of The Last of Us, we said it "allows for past demons to be exorcised in order to build a stronger future for its two leads. Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey are simply terrific as they navigate some of the story’s most memorable scenes, all of which sideline action in favour of heated, nuanced conversation. Beautifully shot and expertly written, it’s ...
