Happy Monday!
Sony had a great night at the BAFTA's This year, with Returnal and Rachet and Clank doing very well for themselves. A blast for the past this week with the new announcements that we will see a new Max Payne and Tomb Raider game are in the works. Then we have Ubisoft, and it wouldn't be a week without Ubisoft announcing yet another game, but this time it comes at the cost of another game. Plenty to get into this week, so lets just get into it!
