Doctor Who “The Pilot” – Review

The thing is, I can see what was attempted here, and while there are moments I liked, it never clicked. Bill Potts is a fine character though a little heavy on the: “I’m gay, by the way, tell The Guardian about that…

Metal Max Xeno Reborn (PC) Review

Sometimes, a series has been going on longer than you might think. Metal Max is one of those series, dating all the way back to its debut on the Famicom more than 30 years ago. It saw twists and turns in genre and…

Digimon Survive Gets New Release Date and Trailer

I’ve been a fan of Digimon for a while. As a kid, Pokemon was more my style, but as I got older, I really enjoyed Digimon too. I haven’t really paid much attention to the development of Digimon Survive, but I follow…

Cosmetics are everywhere in video games now. Extra skins, costumes, clothing, and other types of cosmetics enable you to customize characters in your favorite games. However, I think we can all agree that cosmetics for male characters tend to be pretty basic.…

The point that made me stop playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 last time, as I do intermittently hop back into my truck, was the point I began to search for online radio stations in-game. At that point, I had to stop because it was…

Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga (Switch) Review

The Lego games have always been a total favorite of mine. The puzzles, the fun references, and the ability to play as fan-favorite characters have all appealed to me over the years. I’ve played (I think) every single Lego licensed game from…

The PC Gaming Show Needs To Change

Terrible, grossly mismanaged, an ineffective attempt to garner viewership and attention by imitating the fickle and bland nature of late-night shows, and whatever obscenely long word best describes ads for credit cards designed for “gamers.” I’m sorry Richard Whiteley, the best I’m…

Capcom Showcase Recap

There have been a lot of conferences already, from the big ones like Summer Game Fest to the smaller ones like Future Games Show. As exciting as they’ve all been, the one I’ve been keenly looking forward to has been the Capcom…
