Ugly Betty “Brothers” – Review

“Scandal, and sex change, and murder – oh my!” thanks Tim, that opening line sums up Ugly Betty as a whole. Misgivings about the title aside, series-long producer Sheila Lawrence takes her second credit following the wonderful “Fey’s Sleigh Ride” after some…

The Legend of Khiimori (PC) – Preview

I say it all the time, I like weird and interesting games. Especially when it comes to strange settings in games, compared to what we’re all used to. Aesir Interactive and NightinGames’ The Legend of Khiimori sees you take on the role…

Vampire Therapist now on consoles

As I sit and watch F1 testing, because I am criminally insane, I want to highlight that everyone needs a bit of therapy. Be it actual therapy with a professional, retail therapy (#Capitalism), friend therapy, watching Ted Lasso on an endless loop,…

Under The Island (PC) – Review

Is FM26 in a state to look forward now?

To say that Football Manager 26 has been maligned would be an understatement. Since launch, the overall English-speaking reviews have been “mostly negative” on Steam, and I can’t disagree with every single one of them. That said, I have been one of…
