Doctor Who “Deep Breath” – Review

To his best effort, Steven Moffat did try to keep up with his own pace in the first episode, retraining that energy while transitioning into the more pragmatic Doctor. However, despite his best efforts, Peter Capaldi is not an instantly likable figure.…

Hitman 2 (Xbox) – Review

I’ve been a vocal detractor of the Hitman reboots the same way I have been a detractor of the Tomb Raider reboots: the first one is godawful, and the second makes a marked improvement. That kids, is how to give the game away early…

Hellbound (Netflix) Review

Extremely successful Korean shows and movies seem to be the norm with every new release from the country. With a string of critical acclaim coming from the likes of Train to Busan, Parasite, and the more recent Squid Game, Hellbound had lofty…

Unpacking (PC) – Review

Sam and Max: Beyond Time and Space (Switch) Review

Last year, I really enjoyed my time with Sam & Max Save the World when it was released on Nintendo Switch. I had missed the Sam & Max games the first time around, so playing through the first “Season” of sorts, was…

6Souls (Switch) Review

Sometimes I catch myself looking at a game and expecting it to be better than what is advertised. It isn’t really a fault of the marketing department, sometimes I just see a concept and expect it to be really great, when it…

Tales of Arise (PS5) Review

Tales of Arise is the newest entry in the long-running Tales series and after a few years of planning and production, the execution is nearly flawless. From top to bottom, the mechanics of the game complement every activity you’ll be partaking in…

Adele – 30 (Album) Review

English singer/songwriter Adele has finally released her fourth studio album 30. This will be only the 2nd album she has released since having had her first vocal cord surgery back in 2011. There was some worry that Adele might never be able…
