Sony is Giving Away Free Games (Again)

Last year, when the ongoing pandemic started affecting us all, the people at Sony started the “Play At Home Initiative” and were kind enough to give away some free games for everyone owning a PS4 to keep. No subscription to PlayStation Plus…

Destroy All Humans! 2 Could Be Remastered Next

Ah, the mid-2000s, when you could make grossly inappropriate jokes about things that 20-somethings would never touch with a ten-foot bargepole again in their lives. It honestly surprises me that the Destroy All Humans! series is meant to be a cult classic. It…

UnderMine (Switch) Review

I have really been on a Roguelike kick lately. I played a lot of Hades over the holidays, and I’m still trying to make my way through the endgame of it. I’ve also been playing other Roguelikes and just trying to see…

Curse of the Dead Gods (Switch) Review

As a lot of our readers are no doubt aware by now, I love Roguelikes. However, I must admit that after playing Hades, I somewhat feel spoiled. Why? Because as I have previously mentioned, Hades has become my new gold standard for…

The Contradiction of Nintendo in 2021

Fans tuned in for the Nintendo Direct last week and experienced mixed results. Many saw a game or two they liked a lot. Others, and probably the majority of viewers, felt very disappointed. No new info on Breath of the Wild 2…

Watch Dogs: Legion Online Sets New Release

Watch Dogs: Legion released back in October, and while it was received differently by some, there was one portion of the game yet to release. Originally scheduled for December, the online portion was delayed last year because, as the team claimed at the time,…
