Starfield
Games like No Man’s Sky, Elite: Dangerous, and the never-to-be-fully-released Star Citizen promised us of a galaxy-sized sandbox we’d be able to explore and do whatever we wanted, depending on the role we’d want to take in their respective universe. Sadly, in most cases, we’d be limited to explore vast...
I grew up playing the Age of Empires games, as well as Age of Mythology, to near exhaustion. Whilst everyone else was having the time of their lives with Blizzard’s real-time strategy offerings, I was standing on the hill that Ensemble Studios’ creations were much, much better in terms of...
Games like Samba de Amigo make me happy. There’s something about Sega’s dumber outings that captivate me like no other kind of game. Remember their barrage of ultra-dumb, ultra-fun arcadey outings from the Dreamcast era? Space Channel 5, Crazy Taxi, Monkey Ball, Seaman, Samba de Amigo… Sega used to go...
Fort Solis
The Unreal Engine 5 is finally here, and we’re finally seeing a plethora of games featuring it being released in the wild. Layers of Fear and Remnant II are two main examples, but what I really wanted to see was a small studio handling the power offered by Epic Games’...
Digital Eclipse has seemingly graduated from just doing (excellent) remaster collections. Last year’s Atari 50 felt like a new chapter in the company’s history, being more than just a bunch of updated ROMs in a cheap package. It was a virtual tour, a documentary, a museum which both entertaining and...
It feels quite odd that a game like Deadlink, a game with impressive production values and one of the hottest settings in modern gaming right now (an environment so clearly influenced by the overall Cyberpunk world and lore), hasn’t managed to garner much of an impression, being released to little...
I am possibly one of, like, six people who had never played Red Dead Redemption prior to the re-release of the game on more modern platforms. As a result, these new ports did look interesting at first glance, at least to me. I even had a sizeable amount of cashback...
Sprawl
As a wise man named DJ Khaled once said, “another one”. Upon hearing about SPRAWL, I nearly wanted to roll my eyes and just say that this was going to be yet another retro-styled first-person shooter (or “boomer shooter”, a term I loathe), the sixth or seventh game in the...
Gord
It feels like the initial announcement of Gord had happened nearly half a decade ago. Maybe it’s just my post-pandemic brain blurring the concept of time as we know it, but I’ve been keeping an eye on this game for a while. Why wouldn’t I? I love me a good...
Flutter Away
I have talked about how games don’t necessarily need to be fun to be considered good in the past. I have lavished games like The Last of Us Part II and The Life and Suffering of Sir Brante, but even those games knew how to deliver in terms of emotions,...
When you are a small indie studio, and one of your games becomes a surprising success, odds are you are going to try and capitalize on it, maybe make a sequel based on what worked on that game, fixing its issues, and so on. That’s the natural progression. Well, if...
When it comes to Nintendo’s strategy franchises, I have never been a fan of Fire Emblem. Maybe it’s my overall lack of interest towards medieval fantasy, or the saturation caused by the barrage of anime pretty boys stemming from the franchise in the Smash games. I have always gravitated towards...
