Door Kickers 2: Task Force North (PC) – Review

Much like America’s war in the Middle East, Romanian studio KillHouse Games’ Door Kickers 2: Task Force North felt somewhat like it was in early access for longer than time itself. Finally out in its 1.0 release, the fully updated sequel to…

Prime Gaming – February 2025

Maybe you could take a lesson from an early scene in the first game this month Jeffrey. Another month, another Thursday has passed, and I’m bemoaning the existence of everyone, what else isn’t new? Probably the fact the “other benefits/In-game content” for…

Monday, beautiful city-builder Town to City was announced, Wayne June has made it out of the darkest of dungeons, and another one of those faux-PS1 horror games nears full release. Tuesday, Cast n Chill has me rubbing the inside of my podcast…

Eureka “Pilot” – Review

The quote at the start of EUReKA (as it is stylized) goes thusly, “A little Knowledge is a dangerous thing. So is a lot.” For Colin Ferguson’s Sheriff Carter, that’s pretty true. Directed by Peter O’Fallon, it is difficult to say O’Fallon…

Door Kickers 2 Gets Full Release Date

There are some games we all play far too much of, probably for our own good. Before it has even hit its full-release state, I’ve put in hundreds of hours for Door Kickers 2: Task Force North, as I said when we…

Undying is free on Epic

Monday, why go outside this Spring come Summer when you can play The Bench demo in February, and Flaire Obscure: Expedition 33 is the most Yoko Taro game without gratuitous TnA. Tuesday, Two Point Museum showcased museum management, while WWE 2K25 has…

Lower Decks “The New Next Generation” – Review

I was wrong about Ma’ah’s story wrapping up in “A Farewell to Farms,” and for what it is (so far), “The New Next Generation” was the perfect ending to Lower Decks. Written by Mike McMahan, everyone’s top 2 candidate for a McMahan/McMahon,…
