Review: FIFA 21

The world of soccer, or football, doesn’t have as many changes from year to year like other sports do. The FIFA franchise, while having a lot of tech, has been lacking in recent years. EA tried to change things up last year with introducing VOLTA to counteract losing league licenses to competition. Traditional modes started to dissipate with a focus on VOLTA and even the cinematic career mode was removed. FIFA 21 still has the streamlined game mode options, but a lot of attention to detail went towards offering a deeper gameplay experience....

TGS 2023: Dragon's Dogma II is More of a Good Thing

As much as everyone loves it when a major publisher like Capcom revisits a long-dormant IP like Dragon’s Dogma, there’s always a few concerns that come with that. The more time that passes between installments, the more design conventions have the chance to change and the more likely it is that fans won’t get an experience that’s true to the original they love. In Dragon’s Dogma’s case, it’s been ten years since the original first released....

The Audi Activesphere Concept Is An EV Crossover With A Pickup Tailgate And A Secret Mission

The Audi Activesphere Concept Is An EV Crossover With A Pickup Tailgate And A Secret Mission The Audi Activesphere can’t decide what it wants to be: curvaceous sedan, luxe off-roader, or practical pickup truck. Then again, perhaps the German automaker’s newest electric concept doesn’t need to settle for just one identity. That would certainly be in keeping with the very realPPE architecturethat underpins the very far-fetched design study. It’s the fourth in Audi’s “sphere” series of concept cars, which began with theSkysphere variable-length roadsterin 2021....

The Forgotten Chevy Aerovette Concept That Was Ahead Of Its Time

The Forgotten Chevy Aerovette Concept That Was Ahead Of Its Time Unlike the smooth, aerodynamic design of General Motors' concept Corvette known as the “Aerovette,” the story of how it went from the drawing board to the auto show floor is most certainly not straight. The life and death of this particular prototype is a convoluted coalescence of people, parts, engines, and finally… just plain old (bad) timing. While Harley Earlmay be the true father of the Corvette, there is no mistaking that Zora Arkus-Duntovis the man who truly made it a legend....
