Overshadowed by October's biggest releases.October has been a pretty spectacular month for videogame bangers. It started with the likes of Ace Combat 8, Star Wars: Galactic Racer, Silver Pines, and my personal GOTY, Gears of War: E-Day launching within the space of nine days. And that’s before we get to Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. You get the idea.It's certainly a great time to be a gamer. The biggest problem is finding enough hours in the day to actually sit down and play everything. Lord help us when GTA 6 drops and we’re all reduced to malnourished husks.Read the full article on purexbox.com

Terrible Lizards, for example, is a very intriguing "horror parkour" game that has more than a few Five Nights at Freddy's vibes, while The Seance of Blake Manor has been getting a lot of attention in the indie space and has a "Very Positive" rating on Steam since its PC release last year.Read the full article on purexbox.com

Are you a fan? And if not, what's stopping you?So, I think it's fair to say Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 has had a pretty faffy launch. First came Campaign Early Access, followed four days later by DMZ Early Access, and then another three days later by its full release. Two too many launch days if you ask me, but still, I can't help but feel a hefty amount of FOMO sitting here 'CODless', as it's apparently one of the best Call of Duty games in quite some time.And since the game is finally enjoying its first proper weekend since launch, in addition to all those extra Early Access days, we thought we'd gather up some thoughts from those of you who are playing the game right now.Read the full article on purexbox.com

Whenever I sit down to play Xbox, I now reach for the Ultimate 3E controller.8BitDo is one of those brands that has built a name for itself by shipping solid and reliable third-party peripherals for PC and console. In fact, I'm typing this review on its clickity-clackity SNES-themed Retro Keyboard, so it’s fair to say I'm already a fan.But when it comes to dethroning my go-to controller, the Xbox Elite Core 2, third-party alternatives never really stood a chance. That prospect seemed even less likely once my limited edition Gears of War: E-Day controller arrived. However, 8BitDo managed to pip the postie to my door by a few weeks, delivering its new Ultimate 3E Xbox controller. I've barely put it down since.Read the full article on purexbox.com
