Synth Riders (Nintendo Switch) Review

Many VR experiences use the peripheral to create a unique experience that players can’t get anywhere else. Sometimes, we’ve seen traditional games make the jump to VR and not necessarily translate as well as we’d hope. The inverse, a VR game becoming…

Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion (Switch 2) Review

In 2019, Daemon X Machina released on Nintendo Switch to fairly positive reviews, only to improve over time with post-launch content and updates. Any developer that hits and misses elements of their first entry in a series can only hope to get another shot…

Ugly Betty “After Hours” – Review

Daniel, some of them do. The first episode to be written by this season’s story editor, Dailyn Rodriguez, makes one of two appearances as a writer for Ugly Betty before moving on to other projects. Including an adaptation of Meg Medina’s 2013…

Comic Book Corner – Transformers

I have always been a massive Transformers fan. It’s an especially goofy and silly franchise that just speaks to my inner child. However, up till now I’ve never read any comics based on it. IDW Publishing had the license to the characters…

Ready or Not: Dark Waters (PC) – Review

Editor’s Note: The following article mentions content not suitable for children, including (but not limited to) mentions of sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised. Right, with that saving a millionaire’s kids from being shot down while one of the fifty-six school shootings…

News Tower (PC) – Review

The importance of news in a time of crisis can’t be overstated. When there are moronic and despotic self-proclaimed leaders who show no ability for the role and are given power, it is important that the news stands up and informs people.…

PC Building Simulator (PC) Review

Ah, now here’s a game that I could talk about for hours on end. PC Building Simulator, developed and published by The Irregular Corporation, does exactly what it says on the tin: It’s a simulator game in which you’re tasked with building,…

Ugly Betty “Trust, Lust and Must” – Review

Hot damn, what are they paying nurses with in Telenovelas, blood diamonds? Directed by Jamie Babbit, she’s known for directing a few things even recently, like Only Murders in the Building, My Lady Jane, and Awkwafina is Nora from Queens, but also…

Ready or Not: Home Invasion (PC) – Review

I don’t often review DLCs on their own, particularly now as most of them are quite short, don’t add very much, and I’m old enough to remember when these things were part of a larger expansion pack. Ready or Not’s “Home Invasion”…

Ugly Betty “The Lyin’, the Watch and the Wardrobe” – Review

Happy Halloween… I wrote this in June. Directed by Rodman Flender, I’ll admit that it is difficult to say he’s known for a lot of work. Flender (Bender’s flan-based cousin) does two episodes of Ugly Betty, an episode of Gilmore Girls, Dawson’s…
