World of Warcraft: Midnight
World of Warcraft returns with its latest expansion, the second of the three part Worldsoul Saga, Midnight. This massive overarching story has been keeping fans of the MMO intrigued for the past couple years now, and as of now we are, nearly, halfway through the fate of Azaroth and what...
This year I made a promise to myself that I would start trying out some games that aren’t normally in my wheelhouse. Trying to broaden my horizons a bid to appreciate more of the gaming world and have a less closed off mentality to styles I wouldn’t usually immediately go...
Adaptations and interpretations of H.P. Lovecraft’s works are plentiful and everywhere. In games, we have the likes of Call of Cthulhu or Alone in the Dark, which drew incredibly heavily on the Lovecraft Mythos. Whilst masterpieces such as SOMA, which don’t directly adapt the mythology are based heavily on it,...
Darwin's Paradox
The octopus is one of the most fascinating creatures on our planet. Masters of camouflage, these invertebrates can hide from even the most blood-thirsty of predators. Their intelligence is undeniable, being able to escape captivity in frequently surprising ways. So how would a cephalopod manage in an environment other than...
I guess we are currently living in bittersweet days for fans of the Legacy of Kain games. After two decades without any kind of new entry or re-release, the remasters of the Soul Reaver games arrived like a torpedo of joy, bringing two of the most impressive gothic action games...
The Occultist
In The Occultist, you play as Alan Rebels, a professional paranormal investigator who visits the abandoned British island of Godstone to find out what happened to his father. Things quickly get complicated and take on a supernatural tone. Before you know it, you’re cutting down a hanged man from a...
Back in the 90s, there was an insane number of challengers all trying to claim the beat ’em up crown. For every Streets of Rage, Final Fight, or X-Men that nailed what made the genre click, there were plenty that just didn’t quite get it. Rushing Beat, known outside Japan...
Dragonkin: The Banished
I’ve never really admitted to being a fan of Diablo-like games. In fact, I’ve often found them overly simplistic and incredibly time-consuming. And yet, every time I pick up another title in the genre, something strange happens – I get completely hooked and can’t pull myself away. Dragonkin: The Banished...
I would like to start off my review for Super Meat Boy 3D by apologizing to each of the developers’ mothers. Ladies, I know you have nothing to do with this game’s development, but boy, did I curse you whilst playing it. My bad. Blame your children’s creation. What was...
Kena: Bridge of Spirits
*Editors Note: “After review I did a bit more research on the PS4 version of Kena: Bridge of Spirits on PS5 and it does use PS5’s Game Boost, however, that only stabilizes the 30fps framerate. Version Limitation: While it runs better, it remains the PS4 version, meaning it lacks the...
It’s interesting going back and looking at Saber Interactive’s catalog of games and the variety of things they have made. Vehicle based games like the Mudrunner series, first person shooters like Insurgency: Sandstorm, third person shooters like the Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine games, co-op focused games like Painkiller, to even a VR Exploding Kittens game. They...
Damon and Baby
I love when a developer mainly known for a specific genre decides to delve into something completely different from their usual output. Sometimes, this results in unexpectedly good results. Remember when Rockstar came up with the shockingly fun Table Tennis? Or when Ubisoft teamed up with Nintendo to make a...
