My Thoughts on the Doctor Who: Flux Trailer

I make it no secret, I’m not a massive fan of Chris Chibnall. I’ve not loved his writing, I’ve not been in love with his direction of Doctor Who either. Generally, I think for a show about a space wizard that is immeasurably…

Animal Crossing Direct News Rundown

It has finally happened! After months of speculation and a while of Nintendo telling us that something was in the works, we finally have an Animal Crossing themed Direct! Friday the Direct landed, offering us over 20 minutes of announcements and new…

The Caligula Effect 2 (Switch) Review

Admittedly, it is rare that I find a sequel to a game I really like, that actually lives up to the original. I absolutely adored The Caligula Effect: Overdose when it was released on Switch back in 2019, so when I heard…

Aeon Must Die Releases; Former Devs Respond & Reveal New Game

About 14-months ago, there was this thing that mildly blew up in the news, but since then very little has been said about it. It was August’s PlayStation State of Play that first properly revealed Aeon Must Die from Focus Home Interactive and Limestone Games.…

Halloween Kills (Film) Review

Stubbs The Zombie Is Free On The Epic Games Store

Arguably it has been a bit of a slow week, which is to say I didn’t rely on news too much this week. Monday, I spoke about Doctor Who and when I’ll be reviewing Series 13. Tuesday, the Activision-Blizzard state and federal lawsuits are becoming a complete…

Dragon Star Varnir (Switch) Review

When Dragon Star Varnir was released in 2019, it was one of the most unique RPGs I had seen come from Idea Factory and Compile Heart. I reviewed the PlayStation 4 version and greatly enjoyed my time with it. It takes the…

Doctor Who “Nightmare In Silver” – Review

Do you reckon when Russell T Davies comes back in 700 days/on Thursday, the 23rd of November, 2023, he’s just going to sit there in a chair for a second before explaining Chibnall is a hack? I mean, it was RTD that established the time vortex as…

ANNO: Mutationem (PC) Preview

Ever since I first saw Anno: Mutationem at the Playstation State of Play a little over a year ago, I’ve been following it off and on. Cyberpunk and Anime aren’t the most original combo, but they’re two of my favorite things, and…

Free Expansion for Space Crew Announced

Runner Duck Games and Curve Digital, creators of the World War II-era crew management strategy game known as Bomber Crew, have just announced an upcoming downloadable content pack for Space Crew. This DLC, officially entitled Space Crew: Legendary Edition will reportedly include quite…
