The Olympics have officially ended but for gamers like us, the games keep on going! This week, we have a short but mixed bag of releases that stretches from experimental to mainstream.
Bound
Release Date: August 16, 2016
Platform/s: PS4
Sony has done a lot to support studios that push the creative boundaries of gaming. Bound is the latest in Sony’s lineup of games that push this boundary. In what is dubbed as a “balletic” game, Bound incorporates many dance movements to help tell a mature story that happens inside of a woman’s mind. For a quiet night in or for gamers that enjoy watching dance, Bound might be a great choice for a night in or a break from all of the other games in your collection.

Our favorite bald assassin is back in the latest Hitman Episode 4. This time, we see Agent 47 traveling to Thailand although I doubt that he’s going there for the beaches. Whatever brings Agent 47 to Thailand, you can rest assured that there will be a trail of bodies in the way… someone please remind Agent 47 to pass through the turnstile carefully or he might… Bangkok.
