Back when we at FinalBoss were kids, we’d dream of VR without even knowing what it was. Playing driving games we’d complain about how unrealistic it was that the in-car camera always faced dead on forwards instead of turning when the car turned. The turn speeds in First Person Shooters made us feel like a […]

If you have been waiting to invest in the Apple TV system, the branding campaign of the 4K HDR/Dolby Vision model is doing everything in its power to convince you that the time is right.

As massive fans of the Merc with the Mouth, we’ve been waiting for Deadpool 2 with baited breath ever since the hints from the ending credits of the original. The promised addition of Cable, one of the most badass X-men of all time, made the wait even more unbearable. Although quite unorthodox, the addition of […]

E3 has become a bit superfluous in recent years. In 2017, FinalBoss covered the news and announcements in our breakdown podcast, and we weren’t shy about how disappointing we thought the news was. With live streams, social media and everything else that wonderful world-wide-web has to offer, expos like E3 are becoming a bit old […]

May 22nd saw State of Decay 2 released on the Xbox One and Windows 10 — available on the Xbox Game Pass for free, or the low, low price of just £24.99. At FinalBoss we were eager to give this one a go, so the team at FinalBoss jumped on for a launch day live […]

Westworld season 2 episode 5 ended on a rather spectacular and gruesome action set piece, but watching the Shogun getting slowly decapitated wasn’t the most shocking scene in this episode. Maeve is now able to control hosts with her mind; making her the official Professor X of Westworld. It was a turn we weren’t expecting, […]

God of War is perhaps the landmark release of 2018, and Santa Monica Studios have done a great job of keeping the essence of the original trilogy alive, whilst bringing a fresh take to the narrative in this sequel to God of War 3. The move from Greek to Norse mythology is a bold departure from […]

Released in 2013, Max: The Curse of the Brotherhood has been picking up rave reviews since it landed on the Xbox One all those years ago. So popular was it, in fact, that it was eventually developed for the PC and PS4. Now, this bright little puzzle-platform game has made its way to the Switch. […]

Well, Apple has now joined the litany of other tech giants who are releasing smart speakers that are designed to respond to voice commands. Boasting similar capabilities to the beloved Alexa and Google Home, HomePod is Apple’s foray into the world of voice-operated sound systems. But how does it compare to the others? HomePods Pricing […]

MAJOR SPOILERS FOR INFINITY WAR Avengers: Infinity War built a very compelling and well-rounded — if not utterly insane and slightly contrived — villain in the form of Thanos. Leaving the cinema, I felt the Russo Brothers got a lot right when it came to the introduction of the Mad Titan. But there was one […]

Upcoming murder mystery platformer, Omensight, is slated for a spring/summer release on both PS4 and Steam. The game premiered to a positive audience at PAX East, with its incandescent cel-shaded aesthetics and gameplay similar to the newer instalments in the Legend of Zelda series. As the Harbinger, players must take on the role of a […]

We roamed the floors, spoke to developers and got hands-on with countless indie games for one purpose and one purpose only: To find the must play indie games of 2018. Most casual fans of gaming will only ever play […]

For a while, it seemed like co-op mode games were a thing of the past. With single-player stories becoming ever shorter, and a shifting focus moving to online multiplayer, the ability to run through a story mode with friends was going the way of the dodo, fidget spinners and Kevin Spacey’s career. But in 2018, […]

Unfortunately, it’s only a remaster, but we’ll take whatever we can get from Criterion Games and their Burnout series. As lifelong fans we’ve put countless hours into Burnout 2, Takedown, Revenge, and the anthology epic […]

Tomb Raider is everywhere at the moment. A movie in the cinemas, a new game on the horizon, it’s Lara-mania the likes of which we haven’t seen in many years. In a first for Two Honest Guys, I’ll be taking you on an abridged journey through the history of the Tomb Raider franchise, looking at […]

Ernest Cline’s fanboy homage to 80s pop-culture, Ready Player One, is getting its cinematic adaption. We at FinalBoss are huge fans of the book and couldn’t wait to see some of the amazing descriptions played out in CGI.
