Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy Review
August 27, 2026

We got off to such a great start this year, with a ton of PC games that looked great and still ran well on pretty much any hardware. One of the common themes among games like Crimson Desert, Resident Evil Requiem, and Forza Horizon 6 was that none of them were running on…

August 25, 2026
I imagine the Xbox stories I’ve been sharing on IGN recently in the run-up to the brand’s 25th anniversary probably seem a little ridiculous or even a bit crazy now – like how I got to be one of the first people to ever play through Halo 2 while playing in a storage closet at Bungie – but I promise you, it was all pretty normal back then.
