Into the Dark by Claudia Gray, the first young adult entry in The High Republic series of Star Wars novels and comics, is inventive and adventurous. Ancient aliens, a space station haunted in more ways than one, and space pirates make it a grab bag of what the new era has to offer, all of it explored by well-meaning but burdened Jedi. The main character is the least compelling of the gang, and some twists are signposted as bright as a lightsaber....

We still don’t know much about Starfield, the upcoming space-based sci-fi RPG from Bethesda. Leaked screenshots from September show what might be the game’s UI, but they look to be still very much in development and might not be what the final game looks like. For all we know, Bethesda might take the game first-person rather than the third-person over-the-shoulder view that the screenshots suggest. But one thing is very clear: Starfield is a single-player game....

As the holidays have finally come to a close, it seems that any new sales on major video game releases will be held off for a little while.

The player controls Commander Shepard as he and his crew try to restore peace and order to the galaxy....

Other times it can be a shameless ripoff that put in the least amount of effort to try and make a buck....

Bethesda Softworks and id Software’s latest hell-razing escapade is glorious. It’s a gaming experience that embraces what it is.
