From our Preview: The second game from Oregon-based studio Fullbright, Tacoma seems at once akin to 2013’s widely-acclaimed Gone Home, although it’s certainly on a far grander scale. Tacoma trades the creaky, Pacific Northwest mansion for a large space station – Lunar Space Station Tacoma – but the feeling of being alone and marooned in an alien place is very similar. Gone Home takes place after midnight during a heavy storm; despite the overall eeriness of the unfamiliar home, leaving it would be illogical. Tacoma is set somewhere between the Earth and the Moon. The menace is certainly more overt aboard the Tacoma itself than it ever really was in Gone Home, but walking out the front door is impossible. This isn’t Oregon. This is orbit.

From our Preview: The fire is out, and my food is gone. I could leave my cabin to forage for wood, but the last thing I want to do is go outside. A blizzard is raging, and I can hear wolves in the distance. I might not last the night.
In The Long Dark, danger is everywhere. Canadian developer Hinterland Studios is crafting a survival game that asks players to not only fend off wild animals, but also starvation, fatigue, and the blistering cold.

Release Date: Tuesday, August 1, 2017
- See it on Amazon for $39.99 with Prime (PS4)
From our Review of the PC Version: It’s rare to find a game that excels in the pillars of mechanics, storytelling, and art as consistently as Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. It has its share of blemishes, most prominent of which being camera controls that made me want to flip an entire hibachi table. But its needle-sharp stealth systems, cast of memorable characters with diverse abilities and personalities, and an uncommonly grounded saga set in a stylized feudal Japan left me with a sense of true accomplishment and a role in a well-told story.
Release Date: Tuesday, August 1, 2017
- Downloadable on PS4 (PSVR)
Dino Frontier lets you build and manage a frontier settlement in a world where the Jurassic Era and the Wild West collide.
Release Date: Tuesday, August 1, 2017
- See it on Amazon for $24.99 (Blu-ray)
From our Review: Godzilla movies have changed a lot over the years. Shin Godzilla, the 31st Godzilla film (and the 29th by original Gojira production house Toho Pictures), has more in common with the original than the most recent before it, Gareth Edwards’ 2014 movie titled simply Godzilla. That’s definitely a good thing.
Release Date: Tuesday, August 1, 2017
- See it on Amazon for $22.99 (Blu-ray)
Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Alan Arkin team up as lifelong buddies Willie, Joe and Al, who decide to buck retirement and step off the straight-and-narrow for the first time in their lives when their pension fund becomes a corporate casualty. Desperate to pay the bills and come through for their loved ones, the three risk it all by embarking on a daring bid to knock off the very bank that absconded with their money.
Release Date: Tuesday, August 1, 2017
- See it on Amazon for $19.96 (Blu-ray)
From our Review: The Circle feels like it could have benefited from more time in the editing room and a more streamlined script. It’s a film with a nihilistic perspective about society that’s appreciated and needed for this material, but without the necessary intelligence to help it really land with much impact. The Circle swings for the fences, but settles for little more than a line drive to first.
Release Date: Wednesday, August 2, 2017
Trails of Cold Steel is the first in the series to tread Erebonian soil and explore the inner political conflicts of this oft-mentioned powerhouse nation in detail.
With a standalone story that also delves into the expansive lore that has become synonymous with the series, players can enjoy school life and bond with fellow students to earn new abilities in battle, take advantage of speedy, tactical turn-based combat with the newly-developed “ARCUS” system, and uncover dramatic events that stand to change everything these two opposing social classes stand for.
