Game Developers Have an Optics Problem

With the Summer Game Fest behind us, other than a little coverage that we’ll have later this week, we are finally back to normal. However, amidst the trailers and the race to put out showcase coverage, I needed to sit with one…

Tiebreak+ (PS5) Review

The world of Tennis is no stranger to me. While I have absolutely no skill in playing the actual sport despite my High School gym teachers’ valiant efforts to train us, I have spent most of my life watching professional matches with…

Truck World: Australia – First Haul (PC) – Preview

Half of my love for the land down under is almost entirely based on old Billy Connolly travel programs, but also the idea of the road trains. Like any raging psychopath with a love for trucking in games, there are parts of…

Date Everything! (PC) Review

Dating simulators are a fun way to enhance the connection between you and some pixels on a screen. They’re not for everyone, but they sure do know their target audience, tempting players with multiple endings and a variety of personalities/potential suitors. So…

Doctor Who “The Interstellar Song Contest” – Review

It was never the same without a slightly and progressively more drunk/catty Terry Wogan. This episode was directed by War of the Worlds season 2 director Ben A Williams. Williams is probably “best” known for his series of short films released on…

Car Dealer Simulator (PC) – Review

Well, there goes all my credit for saying I don’t know bits of cars on sight. When I first saw Garage Monkeys’ business simulator, I did what I do with all interesting-looking, Eastern European-developed, semi-serious simulators. I ran to my nearest handler…
