report this ad2018 was a great year for gaming, and many defining new titles were released. Among the various critically-acclaimed games of 2018, there were games that featured some tough female characters. In many games released this year, such as Assassins Creed Odyssey and Far Cry 5, players even had the option to play as either a male or a female character. Here are the five best female characters that featured in video games this year. Sadie from Red Dead Redemption 2 Sadie Adler is an outlaw and bounty hunter who joins the Van Der Linde gang in Red Dead Redemption 2. Rockstar Games describes her as “a widow who is hell-bent on taking revenge upon those who killed her husband. Relentless and afraid of nothing and no one. The wrong woman to cross, but very loyal to those she loves.” Sadie definitely lives up to this reputation and proves to be a great fighter alongside Arthur throughout many of the game’s most memorable missions.Kara from Detroit: … [Read more...] about 5 Best Female Video Game Characters of 2018

Why Red Dead Redemption 2’s Sean MacGuire is the best Irish character in a video game yet
Yeah, it takes a whole army of bounty hunters to bring in Sean Macguire.Recently, I was fortunate enough to see Vulfpeck's Joey Dosik perform live in Dublin's Sugar Club. After a sincere acapella performance, less than a split second elapsed before a member of the crowd bellowed, "GEWON JOEY!" A thundering applause from the audience immediately ensued, threatening to bring the very walls of the building crashing down.There's something about the spirit of Dublin that's perpetually vital; an unwavering confidence coupled with a burning passion for life. That's the Ireland I've grown up knowing, having spent all 23 years of my life living in Dublin. However, that's not the Ireland I see portrayed when I play video games - or at least it wasn't until I came across Red Dead Redemption 2's Sean Macguire.Macguire, known more commonly today as Maguire, is a surname meaning "son of the dark one". Etymologically, it's associated with a lineage of Kings from Fermanagh, a county in the north-west … [Read more...] about Why Red Dead Redemption 2’s Sean MacGuire is the best Irish character in a video game yet
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s best historical characters
There’s a moment in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, when Kassandra enters a party at the house of Pericles, the most powerful man in Athens. She’s nervous, not being much of a social butterfly, but during her time at the party, she speaks with some of the most famous people of the time: politicians, playwrights and philosophers, many of whom are still admired today. I’m a history nerd, and I love this aspect of Assassin’s Creed games, of being able to interact with great characters of the past. Games have the power to take us to unusual places. Hanging out at an Athenian symposium with Socrates, Aspasia and Alciabades is a genuine treat. It’s true that previous Assassin’s Creed have often done a poor job of sliding major characters into their stories. I found Cleopatra in last year’s Origins to be a disappointing mishmash of tired tropes. But in Odyssey, the team of writers at Ubisoft Quebec have creating a network of interlinked … [Read more...] about Assassin’s Creed Odyssey’s best historical characters

DC Comics’ best new character is a sad, sympathetic shark-man
The world of comic book superheroes is one where you never know what’s going to happen. In the case of DC Comics’ Nightwing, what has happened is that a lot of fans have been made very sad about a shark-man with a terrible mustache. Meet Guppy, an unsuccessful, low-level criminal who gets no respect — either from his partners in crime or the leading-man superhero who regularly pumps him for information. Guppy lives in Blüdhaven, the official territory of Nightwing, the all-grown-up persona of the first Robin, Dick Grayson. Blüdhaven has a reputation as being a place that’s just as crime-ridden as Gotham City, but without any of the style and a lot less money. And that reputation is fully capable of including a mostly unremarked upon anthropomorphic shark who dresses like a villain in a Home Alone movie. (Although, honestly, he’s not the only anthropomorphic shark in the DC Universe.) But much like the oceans his ancestors (presumably?) walked … [Read more...] about DC Comics’ best new character is a sad, sympathetic shark-man
