Dragon Age Inquisition has arrived at last, riding a massive hype train last seen ferrying the likes of Destiny and Watch Dogs. Such hype trains can easily turn in to flaming wrecks when the game they’re carrying can’t deliver on its promise, so let’s see what Dragon Age Inquisition brings to the table in this First Opinion.
Grand Theft Auto 5 was a crown jewel of the last generation of consoles. Released late in their life cycle, it brought an unpatrolled sense of place and purpose thought its beautifully realized game world.

NBA 2K15 is here, and with it the promise of a new, competitive mode called MyPARK.

Now, with Minecraft’s 1.8 patch out with integrated world borders, it’s time to try again, but with a twist.
I’m playing The Sims 4 for review, but a standard Review in Progress would be too commonplace, so instead we’re going to follow the story of a house that I am playing. I’m going to play them for an in-game month and chronicle their lives in seven-day installments here for the rest of this week. Will they prosper or perish under my control? There’s only one way to find out, isn’t there?

The Sims 4 is coming to PC soon, and to prime the masses EA has released a Sims 4 Create-a-Sim demo on Origin. What kind of fun can you have with it? Let’s find out.
