Train your soldiers to fight for humanity's survival, because, this time around, the human rebellion is on the offensive, and no longer a resolute defender. XCOM 2 follows in the footsteps of the critically acclaimed XCOM: Enemy Unknown, which appeared in 2012. You are in control of the human Resistance, commanding soldiers to rise up against the alien terror that has been ruling Earth for the past 20 years - the Advent. There are numerous … [Read more...]
The Division Top 10 Things You Need to Know
The Division is an action-RPG developed by Ubisoft, and it goes deep into MMO territory. The beta for The Division has ended - and it was all sorts of awesome. But regardless if you got in or not, if you want to play The Division when it hits the streets, you need to know the following things. Unless, you know, you want all of your loot stolen and zero chances at getting out of a Dark Zone area alive. The Division will be released on March the … [Read more...]
21 Mesmerizing Must-Play Virtual Reality Games for Oculus Rift
Oculus Rift will begin to ship starting with the 28th of March 2016. It costs $599 and the first-gen virtual reality headset promises a lot. But is there enough content to entice users to buy it? We here at GameGuideWorld believe that virtual reality, while not the future of gaming, will surely change the industry in more than one way. We've been keeping an eye on Palmer Luckey and his headset since the pre-Facebook buyout, and we think this the … [Read more...]
Enjoy the Bad Spooky Teen Drama in our Oxenfree Review
Oxenfree is a gorgeous game, with an absolutely stunning art-direction. It looks like its backgrounds, characters and objects are painted on a canvas and transposed to the digital medium. The score that accompanies the beautiful setting really sets the mood for a horror game, with well-chosen music and top-notch sound bites. I was so eager to play it and I even cancelled plans to hang out with friends, but, in the end, I wished I didn't. I … [Read more...]
Madness Reigns in Our Darkest Dungeon Review!
Darkest Dungeon is a rogue-like developed by Red Hook Studios, and it has escaped Early Access this week. We've been keeping an eye out for this game since we first heard about its Kickstarter campaign back in February of 2014. Darkest is your classic rogue-like where the player has to accept death with arms wide open, and continue to move forward, even though if that means walking on a road paved with the skeletal remains of your party … [Read more...]

That Dragon, Cancer Review – The Harrowing Reality of Cancer
Be warned: This review contains spoilers, because, otherwise, it would have been a shallow essay about one's highly-subjective opinion. To get down to it, That Dragon, Cancer is not really a good video-game. In many respects, you can pretty much compare it to an independent movie about the gruesome realities of cancer. It's a narrative-driven game, where the player needs to push one button to interact with objects and continue the story. But it … [Read more...]
Rocket League Top 10 Essential Tips and Tricks to Guide Your Match
I've been playing Rocket League since its PS4 and PC release at the start of July 2015. I've been playing it so much over the Christmas holiday that I'm thinking of joining F.C. Barcelona - that is, if they ever open a soccar team. We've decorated Rocket League with a ton of medals at the end of 2015, and the GameGuideWorld crew doesn't regret any trophy that went to the Psyonix team, which built a phenomenal game that blends arcade racing and … [Read more...]
Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Review – Specialists Galore
After about 3 months of continuous Call of Duty Black Ops 3 gaming sessions, it's about time we reviewed the latest title in the COD franchise. It caught us off-guard. We were expecting a shallow game aimed only to amass wealth, but we were, fortunately, mistaken. It's true that Treyarch set the bar pretty high with the first Black Ops iteration, introducing an engaging campaign, as well as intriguing characters, while, a year later, Black Ops … [Read more...]
Star Wars Battlefront 2015 Tips and Tricks
Star Wars Battlefront 2015 is a fun and gripping game, but it can be a little hard for newcomers to the gaming medium. Arguably, EA approached Battlefront with a design aimed at a broader range of Star Wars fans. But the core, its gameplay, is rather unforgiving at first. Getting into a multiplayer focused first/third-person shooter without playing enough, or any, online skirmishes a la Quake, Serious Sam or Unreal Tournament - where the arcade … [Read more...]
