We now know when Guild Wars 3 takes place, but even 20 years after the series began, it doesn't sound like we'll see an actual storied guild war
Guild Wars - that series of popular massively-multiplayer online role-playing games - is named after three legendary in-universe battles, which are foundational to its story. However, two games in and 20 years later, we've still never actually seen one of these battles ourselves. And that doesn't look to be changing with Guild Wars 3. Read more

I've seen a good half hour of continuous gameplay and, although it comes with plenty of caveats, it really was fantastic.

I went into Halo: Campaign Evolved thinking it didn't need to exist, but after playing two levels I want full remakes of the original trilogy and Reach
When Microsoft revealed that Halo: Campaign Evolved last year, I balked at its claim that this would be " a faithful yet modernised remake of Halo: Combat Evolved's campaign ". How could it be?
