Every year there are games that we are all hyped up and eagerly waiting for, and every year some of the drop the ball. So here are the top 10 most disappointing games of 2017. These aren’t necessarily bad games, these are just game we expected better from. Mass Effect Andromeda This one is probably the most obvious pick. To be honest, I did enjoy Mass Effect: Andromeda’s combat and exploration a lot. However, I was really hyped for this game, especially because I absolutely loved the original trilogy. Andromeda, sadly, never reaches the same heights. Star Wars Battlefront 2 At it’s core, Star Wars Battlefront 2 is an enjoyable game. It’s just so disappointing to see how badly EA screwed this over with their insatiable greed. As a shooter, it’s probably one of...
Introducing Agent Safeword: Saints Row Series Fan Favourite Now Playable in Agents of Mayhem If you can build it, she can hack it. Agent Safeword has little patience for stupidity, and even less for LEGION. It doesn’t matter if you assemble an army of cybersecurity experts; the woman’s a walking infrastructure threat, and nothing from your email password to your doomsday weapon is safe. Kinzie Kensington has been an exceptional hacker since she was old enough to read and type. Instead of letting her talents go to waste in prison, the FBI decided she’d be better off working for them, so she was put to work in the cybercrimes unit at 18 years old. Being stuck in a boring, dead-end job never sat well with Kinzie. She wanted action, excitement, and above all an outlet for punishing people viol...
The time has come, it’s our final Mayhem Monday and with only four days to go before Agents of Mayhem is available, Deep Silver shares the launch trailer. Featuring every agent that you have met over the past few months, the trailer gives you a taste of the action you will find when you play the game. Devil’s Night. The moment everything changed. The super villainous organization known as LEGION, led by a man called the Morningstar, made itself known with a simultaneous global attack. Using teleportation technology, and dark matter-fuelled weapons, LEGION appeared around the world in the blink of an eye. Devastating armies. Stealing resources. Crippling economies. Gripping everyone in fear. In an effort to reclaim the world from LEGION, the Ultor Corporation forms a new anti-terrorist init...
Ex US Army Drill Sergeant and master tactician Braddock comes from a long line of military lifers. Nobody knows the LEGION grunts better than Braddock – she trained most of them before they were recruited by LEGION. This discovery led Braddock to leave her beloved Corps and join MAYHEM where she uses her trademark cigar to mark the target for laser attacks that obliterate her enemies. Next up is Yeti, an elite Russian soldier who took part in a super-secret “cold-warrior” program designed to create super soldiers to fight the threat of LEGION. Most were driven mad, Yeti survived, escaped and joined MAYHEM. Saints Row fans will recognise Yeti’s stature and intelligence, he was formerly Oleg. Our final Carnage A Trois member is everyone’s favourite roller derby girl, Daisy. Bold and brash wi...

As many games are releasing in August and we all can’t checkout every game so these are the games that you should be waiting for and maybe spend some money on.

A video game sex tape? That’s not something you get to hear everyday. But apparently, that seems to be the case for Volition and Deep Silver’s upcoming game Agents of Mayhem. Titled “Deep Under the Covers”, the sex tape was uploaded to YouPorn and shows Gregory Prickington, Ivana Bangya and Marcus Thunderpump in somewhat questionable positions. It’s not exactly NSFW per se, but you know, better safe than sorry. You can watch the video below: And that’s not all. MAYHEM has issued an official statement as well: “It has come to our attention that Hollywood, aka Rod Stone, is rumored to be connected to a provocative film of questionable taste, and on a completely unrelated topic, probably has no chance of winning a coveted AVN Award. We are taking this time ...

Terminally positive, Gremlin engages her mischievous curiosity for all machines to create some of MAYHEM’s deadliest weapons such as the Gutterball Gun that strikes down everything in its path with a barrage of giant electrified balls, or the Cabbit Bomb that turns your enemies into an explosiv...
Agents of Mayhem has another new trailer this time showcasing the “bombshells”. Agents of Mayhem is an upcoming open world action-adventure video game set in the Saints Row universe, developed by Volition, published by Deep Silver with release date of 15th August for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4. Here’s an overview of each character, via Deep Silver: • Joule – Don’t be fooled by Joule’s beautiful, sweet demeanor; behind the high fashion lies a mind of robotic engineering genius that makes her equally as comfortable walking the runways in stilettos as engineering deployable murder turrets. With her Master Programmer ability, Joule is the perfect complement to Rama. • Rama – As the world’s foremost immunologist, Rama uses her Deadshot ability to gain precision the more she char...
We’ve covered the highs, lows, disappointments, and no-shows of E3 2017. Here is the last list of games we might have looked over or missed but are still really cool and promising. Sonic Forces This has been announced for quite some time now. However, we finally got an in-depth look at it. There are 3 primary “modes” in the game. Modern Sonic, Classic Sonic, and Forces Sonic. That new mode is one that mixes the two other modes, and allows you to create a new character based on an animal, and play the game your way. The new game looks pretty cool, and launches on PS4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC some time later this year. Call of Cthulu This is another one we’ve known about for quite some time. It was announced back in February of 2016. Finally, we have gotten a trailer to give us an ide...

Seoul is a big place. When the Agents aren’t using their teleportation abilities, or climbing up the side of the massive buildings, or using the many construction sites that are repairing the damage done on Devil’s Night to get around the city, the best way to manoeuvre the streets is by taking one of their fleet of luxury vehicles created by the automotive genius of the ARK, Quartermile. Quartermile takes his love of luxury cars seriously and treats them with the love and respect they deserve. Like a kid in a candy store in the Mayhem Motor Pool; Quartermile gives gleeful demonstrations of his high security, combat ready vehicles followed by a written test before they any Agents are issued with one. He takes it as an insult if Agents are careless with his creations, which they usually are...
