Ori and the Will of the Wisps announced, about sad owls
Home • PC Game News • Ori and the Will of the Wisps • 16 Graham Smith Editor-in-chief 12th June 2017 / 12:59AM Ori and the Will of the Wisps was just announced at Microsoft’s E3 2017 conference. It’s the sequel to Ori and the Blind Forest and it seems to be about sad owls. You should watch the trailer below, because it’s beautiful.Why are the owls so sad? It’s possibly to do with their ruined, miserable world, but I’m not sure. The description on the video above says that you’ll, “Embark on an all new adventure to discover the mysteries beyond the forest of Nibel, uncover the hidden truths of those lost, and unravel Ori’s true destiny.” Which isn’t a lot to go on. If only the sequel was called Ori and the Black Forest Gateau, then those owls would be happy. The name ‘the Will of the Wisps’ was actually leaked last year, when it was tweeted by a game leak Twitter account just … [Read more...] about Ori and the Will of the Wisps announced, about sad owls
Pokemon Sword and Shield Had the Best Month in Franchise History
By Marc Deschamps - December 13, 2019 01:24 am EST Share 0 Comments 0 While mainline Pokemon titles have always performed well for Nintendo and The Pokemon Company, it's difficult to overstate just how impressive Sword and Shield's sales numbers have been. The latest iterations in the Pokemon series have broken a number of sales records over the last few weeks. According to Matt Piscatella of the NPD Group, the games now hold a new distinction: Sword and Shield gave the franchise the best month of dollar sales out of any Pokemon games released in the U.S. thus far. The previous record holder was Pokemon Sun and Moon.

Wot I Think: Ori And The Blind Forest – Definitive Edition
Home • PC Game Reviews • Ori and the Blind Forest • 43 Step into the light John Walker Prisoner 3rd May 2016 / 2:00PM Everyone should be allowed to take two goes at a game. A second pass after a year or so, with gained wisdom and feedback informing changes and new additions. Even a game that was wonderful on release, like Ori & The Blind Forest, has benefited hugely from such treatment, and I’m delighted to report that the Definitive Edition [official site] is sublime. Here’s wot I think: For those arriving fresh, Ori And The Blind Forest is a Metroidvania platform game featuring an emotional tale of a world ripped of its life, and a glowy mouse-thing (Ori) who – along with the help of a floating orb called Sein – is attempting to restore the former joy. Which is to say, not an original idea at all, and yet one so superbly delivered, so beautifully presented, and so excellent to play, that you wonder if it’s the … [Read more...] about Wot I Think: Ori And The Blind Forest – Definitive Edition

Home • PC Game News • Ori and the Will of the Wisps • 6 Brock Wilbur Contributor 10th June 2018 / 9:38PM I’m not sure what your favorite part of Ori and the Blind Forest was. Was it the heartbreaking breaking of hearts throughout the story? Was it the whole Metroidvania but cute aspect? Was it the soundtrack that has few to no peers in gaming? Well, whatever made that game special for you, today at E3 we got our first full look at the follow-up, and it is everything you would want. At least, it is everything I want. I assume you and I are the same, because we’re both hear to just fawn over Ori and the Will of the Wisps. The original game followed Ori, a guardian spirit, and Sein, who acts as Ori’s guide. In the sequel, you embark on an adventure with all new combat and customization options while exploring a vast, exotic world encountering larger than life enemies and challenging puzzles. Seek help from discoverable allies on your … [Read more...] about Ori and the Will of the Wisps brings all the feels
