Breath of the samurai: Sony's Ghost of Tsushima finally looks like ...

It’s hard to believe that it’s already June and our idea of summer, for many, is far different from what we’re used to. Regardless of the events going in in the hard news, us gamers have plenty of video games to play this summer, whether we’re avoiding confrontation, the sun or just want to do what we love. Truth be told, at the time of writing, there aren’t a ton of games on my radar as the fall likely will have but I still see a handful that I want to play badly. So, join me as I discuss my most anticipated game releases of summer 2020.

In Defense of “RAGE 2” a Year Later

In the lead up to iD and Avalanche’s collaboration in the fork of “Rage 2,” I was very excited for this post-apocalyptic game. I knew 2019 was quickly getting overwhelmed by open world post-apocalyptic shooters but “Rage 2” kept my attention. I was looking forward to the action-packed driving like “Mad Max '' used and the fast, brutal gunplay like that of “Doom.” and once the final product released exactly a year ago today, it was certainly a little divisive. Willingly addressing its flaws, I’d like to, in honor of the one-year anniversary of the game, talk about why I did love “Rage 2” and think it deserved or deserves more attention.

First Assassin's Creed Valhalla gameplay coming Thursday | Rock ...
Today, May 7, 2020, Microsoft held, okay they didn’t hold any conference obviously due to the world's circumstances. Instead, Microsoft put together a series of trailers for upcoming games for their hotly anticipated next generation hardware. This video promised gameplay as the title stated, but sadly, there wasn’t a whole lot of that. Instead, the games revealed or shown for Xbox Series X consisted largely of cinematics. Nevertheless, I am very excited for a great deal of these titles and more for the next generation of consoles, hoping I’ll be able to dish out the money to afford this presumably expensive beast of hardware.

I’ve decided to look at all of the games covered in this video and count them down in a ranking from the one I am least interested in to the game I am genuinely hyped to dive into ASAP. So here it is. And be sure to comment below which of the Series X reveals had you the most excited for next gen.
