Bright Memory Infinite (PS5) Review

2022 has been a year of trying to play some things outside of my comfort zone. I’ve been wanting to mix things up a little. After playing Shadow Warrior 3, I found that I actually somewhat like shooters with the right mix…

Doctor Who “Extremis” – Review

Oh yay, “Extremis,” everyone’s favorite episode of Doctor Who! For the love of all that is holy, please understand that was sarcasm. Continuing on from the space-blindness of Peter’s previous attempts to save Bill, it is time to look inside the vault. We…

American Truck Simulator (PC) – Review

In terms of (quite literally) the roads that music was made on, it is often debated where the greatest roads in the world are in Europe or the US. Which is better? The old, long, tight, and twisty roads of the European…

A lot of us here at Phenixx Gaming love a good chill, farming game. Harvest Moon, Story of Seasons, and Rune Factory are just a few franchises we’re always happy to cover. This review for Rune Factory 5 has been a long…

Comic Book Corner – Manifest Destiny

Welcome back to the comic book corner. This week I’ll be discussing one of my personal favorite titles, Image Comics’ Manifest Destiny. Written by Chris Dingess and with art by Matthew Roberts, Manifest Destiny was first released in 2016 and will conclude…
