Hamilton (Film) Review

Gather round, dear miscreants, for a tale of someone who managed to avoid Hamilton for the entire duration of its notably awful stint as Tumblr’s fandom of choice back in 2016. For the uninitiated, as I was and largely remained until writing…

Desperados III (XBO) Review

Hardcore stealth games are kind of like puzzles, but with a lot more swearing. I’m a fan of the stealth genre, give me a Hitman of the 2000s, the recent Dues Ex: Mankind Divided, Dishonored, or Watch_Dogs 2, I’m happy with all of them. In fact,…

Formula 1 2020 (PS4) Review

“And it is lights out, and away we go!” are words that I’m sure brought smiles to many F1 fans this weekend. Yes, for the first time in 2020 and the first time in several months, we’ve had a race in Formula…

Assetto Corsa Competizione (XBO) – Review

I can’t explain it; I enjoy driving in games. Not just these racing games where all you do is drive in circles for hours, swearing that you aren’t going one-millionth of a nano-second faster than the last time. I enjoy driving around…

Spongebob Squarepants: BFBB – Rehydrated (PC) Review

In an age of remakes and remasters, there’s always a lot of hype behind playing titles from our earlier years with a fresh coat of paint. The track record of this style of games has been fairly consistent in its positive reception,…

The Academy: The First Riddle (PC) Review

Despite my distaste for JK Rowling’s personal beliefs, I have been a fan of the Harry Potter franchise since I was a kid. I also happen to be fond of puzzle games, including the Professor Layton franchise. What do these two things…

The Last Of Us Part II (PS4) Review

“I don’t know what happened. I was supposed to take her to the Fireflies and walk away.” The trouble with this statement is that Joel knows exactly what happened. In an abandoned home, he worries over cleaning the fretboard of a guitar.…
