According to The Verge’s Tom Warren, a longtime Microsoft insider, the 2024 Xbox Games Showcase will take place on Sunday, June 9. That lines up with past showcases, which typically take place on a Sunday shortly after Geoff Keighley’s […]
Since launch late last year, Forza Motorsport has received a bit of a mixed reaction from fans, with one of the biggest criticisms being against the game’s grindy progression system. Every car in the game has a number of parts and systems you can tinker with, but in order to do so, you need to level up and this leveling needs to be done with every car you want to upgrade. Needless to say, this gets pretty grindy! Thankfully, Forza Motorsports Update 6 basically casts aside all grinding that was once required to upgrade your ride. Now all parts are […]

2023 wasn’t necessarily a banner year for either sports of racing games. The various annualized sports franchises largely kept things safe and predictable, although MLB The Show 23 did some interesting things with its new Storylines mode. On the racing front, the new Forza Motorsport was the headliner, although Ubisoft delivered a surprise in the easy-to-get-into new open-world racer The Crew Motorsport.

On the software front, there were winners and losers – Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 was #1 with a bullet, selling twice […]
