    Don’t Sleep on Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon

    In an industry ruled by microtransactions and battle passes and live-service games, From Software has become renowned as one of the few triple-A developers who still care about making good games.

Oh, you sweet summer child, the insanity hasn’t even begun! ‘Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty’ is by far the most divisive game in the series. If you ask a fan how they feel about it, they’ll either say it’s a timeless masterpiece…
