343 Industries released an open multiplayer beta test for Halo Wars 2. Here are our thoughts about the Beta using the power of the Xbox One and Kinect.
If you’re interested in participating in the open beta, you still have a few days to download the Halo Wars 2 client. Anyone who plays one full match will earn a Halo 5 Gold REQ Pack free of charge. After completing five full multiplayer matches, you’ll earn two more Gold Packs free of charge.
Halo Wars 2 is coming February 2017 to Windows 10 and Xbox One.

During Sony’s E3 2016 Press Event, Capcom premiered the announcement trailer for Resident Evil 7, the newest game in the venerable survival horror franchise. The best part about this announcement was that Capcom had a demo ready for us to download alongside the announcement!
The demo is only out on the PS4 right now and it can only be downloaded by PlayStation Plus subscribers. So for those of you unable to check it out yourselves, here it is with full video commentary!
Resident Evil 7 is coming in 2017
Let’s Play DOOM Single-Player Demo June 16, 2016
Posted by Maniac in Let's Play, Site Videos.add a comment
E3 2016 is rapidly becoming a memory, but we’ve got tons of E3 content coming to this site over the next few days.
First up is a bit of a return to our roots. When we first started doing Let’s Plays on this website we decided to only cover demos or first portions of the game instead of playing a game all the way through. The reason behind that was we wanted people to pick up the games and didn’t want to ruin the game experience. Demand started coming in to play more and more of a game (which we happily obliged -Ed) but there haven’t been too many demos for us to look at until this week!
What better demo to get back to playing than the demo for the new DOOM game? It’s only going to be free to download this week on PS4, Xbox One and STEAM and then it will be discontinued. We will be playing the first level of the game with full video commentary.
The first DOOM was one of the most popular demos of its age, let’s see how this one is!
DOOM is out now for PC, Xbox One and PS4.
Pokémon Trading Card Game Mega Mewtwo X Unboxing June 12, 2016
Posted by Maniac in Site Videos.add a comment
One of the aspects of Pokémon we rarely have discussed here on the website is the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG). This is kind of odd, since the TCG has been a popular game ever since the earliest days of Pokemania back in the late 90s, and we have been meaning to address it for some time now.
But how could we start? Aside from a lot of encouragement, it was difficult to find advice about a good place to start with the game. There have been a lot of decks, limited edition packages, and expansions over the lifespan of this game and because of that it is difficult to determine where to start. So we decided to just go with the flow and we picked up a Mega Mewtwo X box and we will be unboxing it along side a Trainer Kit with a Pikachu Libre card.

Continuing with our promised pre-E3 coverage, we have two new Pokémon related videos planned for release today, and here’s the first one.
We’ve been playing Pokken Tournament here for quite a few weeks and we may have a video review of the game coming in the near future. However, while you may know that new copies of the game come with a Shadow Mewtwo Amiibo card that can unlock a Shadow Mewtwo early in the game, you may not know that the game has support for every other Amiibo figure out there.
That’s right, you can unlock random goodies in Pokken Tournament using Amiibo figures. Here’s all you have to do:
Pokken Tournament is out now on the Wii U.
Gears of War: Ultimate Edition Unboxing June 10, 2016

We picked up the original Gears of War on the Xbox 360 right when it was first released. Many have admitted it was the one major exclusive Microsoft could hold over the PlayStation 3 before it’s inevitable launch in 2006. It would not disappoint, as the game was a huge hit with gamers and critics, and it’s enduring legacy has spawned four sequels, two PC ports, a comic series, a novel series, and an unimaginable amount of fan created content.
Now, the original Gears of War has been ported to the Xbox One with all of the extra content from its PC version. What else is in the game box? Let’s find out.
Gears of War Ultimate Edition is out now on the PC and Xbox One.

As we inevitably prepare for our yearly E3 coverage which we expect will begin Sunday night, Maniac produced a whole bunch of videos for your enjoyment this weekend, starting with the conclusion of our Until Dawn let’s play earlier today!
However, it has been a long time since you guys have seen us do some of our previous staple videos, including our look into various sales and deals across the web.
This past week, Maniac found some good game deals, and in perfect timing too, as the growing popularity of at least one of these game properties may just cause the prices on these games to go back up soon! Take a look!
