Bye Sweet Carole Gets Spooky Release Date

METAL GEAR SOLID Δ: SNAKE EATER (PC) – Review

Historically, talking about the plot in a Metal Gear Solid review sounds like a politician after a particularly risky scandal. The very first game takes place in 1995, the second in 1997-99, Metal Gear Solid was set in 2005, MGS 2 takes…

Warhammer 40K: Boltgun – Words of Vengeance (PC) Review

Warning: The subject of this review contains depictions of graphic violence and pixelated gore. Reader discretion is advised. Science said it couldn’t be done, and yet here it is. Auroch Digital first turned Warhammer 40,000 into a retro-style boomer shooter in the…

Kirby Air Riders Direct Rundown

There are a lot of people who are likely on the fence about Kirby Air Riders. What better way to clear up the game’s core mechanics, updates, and gameplay than a direct from Mashahiro Sakurai himself! The racer is going to take players…
