Just as much a survival horror game as it is a role playing game, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is a scary good time filled with terrifying mutants and plenty of abandoned buildings to explore. Featuring multiple endings and a heaping pile of side quests to traverse, the game builds a believable world constructed around mystery and intri
While this game has undergone some harsh backlash after releasing, we should all remember back to the extended build up that fans all had and how exciting things were back then. CD Projekt Red promised Witcher 3 levels of choice and agency with incredible scale and graph

Fable ‚s reboot seems like it was a long time coming. There hasn’t been a new core installment in the Fable franchise since 2010, which is an awfully long drought. Technically, Fable Fortune is the most recent installment in the franchise, but unfortunate the digital trading card game from 2017 has since been shut down. There really isn’t any more representation for Fable out there anymore. Thankfully, Fable has found a new home in the hands of Playground Games since Lionhead Games‘ closure.

This card game first opened its doors to early access players in the summer of 2017, and then it released fully in February 2018. That means it’s been about three years since Fable fans have seen any sign of life from the franchise, which isn’t too long, even if it’s been much longer since a normal Fable game came
At the very least, Playground Games ought to give Fable fans an update on the state of the game. Thankfully, E3 2021 is coming up, so there’s a chance that Microsoft will make a place for Playground Games to address Fable and show off a few things. For a while, it wasn’t clear that Fable would ever return to its formal glory. Now that a reboot of the franchise is officially on Microsoft and Playground’s docket, there’s hope for big new things for the franchise. Even if it’s a solid game, though, release dates matter.
