Forza Motorsport 7 Leaked By Fanatec

The development of Forza Motorsport 7 is leaked by wheel manufacturer Fanatec, after a post on the company’s forums from CEO Thomas Jackermeier confirmed the game. The Forza Motorsport series in general is one of the crown jewels of Microsoft. The Turn 10 Studios-developed series is seen by many as the best racing franchise on the market, with Forza Motorsport 6 sitting as potentially the best Forza game to date. The fact that Forza Motosport 7 exists, then, may not come as much of a surprise to many - but what is surprising is that confirmation of the game’s existence did not come from either Microsoft or Turn 10 Studios....

Game Of Thrones Season 8 Episode 6 Review The Iron Throne

What a difference an episode can make. Last week, I speculated that we’d be processing that episode of Game of Thrones for many days, weeks, and perhaps months to come. I think it’s fair to say that this process is still in its infancy, despite the current online histrionics of fanboys demanding a reshoot/rewrite of season 8. While the final season of the most popular series of the decade has had numerous issues, it was in its last two chapters—and especially the final one—that storylines took on new and often bitter dimensions....

Gamescom 2020 Doubtful Due To Germany S Large Gathering Ban

Gamescom, one of the biggest video game trade fairs, might not be held in-person this year. The fair was originally slated to be held in Germany in late August but the COVID-19 pandemic has made planning for large events in 2020 a tricky task. The German national government recently decided that the country’s ban on large gatherings would be extended until the end of August at the earliest. It’s possible that Gamescom will not have a physical meeting this year at all, although the event’s Twitter page tweeted on April 15 that Gamescom 2020 “will definitely take place digitally....

Final Fantasy Top 10 Airships In The Entire Series

Like chocobos, moogles, and plots that revolve around magical crystals, airships are one of the hallmarks of Final Fantasy, with most games in the series featuring them in one way or another. In the earlier entries, airships mostly served as nondescript transportation, enabling the party to fly through the air and explore the world map to its fullest. Later entries, however, have experimented with the formula a little, allowing airships to serve a multifunctional role either within the narrative or during gameplay....
