BPM: Bullets Per Minute was originally releases on Steam a bit over two years ago. Around its one-year anniversary, the game saw its first release on consoles, namely Xbox and Playstation. Our own Jordan Hawes tackled this port last year, which you can read here. As what we can only...
It’s been eight years since the release of Shovel Knight, arguably one of the best indie games of all time, a poster child of retro revival and crowdfunding delivery done right. This doesn’t mean Yacht Club Games hasn’t done anything worth mentioning over the past few years: besides the various...
As common as roguelike games are, few developers get them right. They’re among the oldest of genres that survived into modern gaming, beginning as they did in the 70’s/80’s with classics like Rogue, Adventure and Moria. It’s a formula that you would assume the gaming community would have down after...

A great story lives not just on the words of the author, but on the ears of the audience. There are hundreds of wonderful and exciting tales woven every day, and, for the fortunate few who hear them, they can decide how this new information will change their lives. There...
If you ever told me I’d eventually play a game that centers around sorting out trash and throwing it in appropriate bins, I’d laugh, and then tell you to ease off on the meds. I’d call for an ambulance to take you straight to the asylum if you ever told...
The action hack ‘n’ slash genre has provided some great experiences over the years, thanks to games like Devil May Cry 5. Currently, however, it feels like it’s been overshadowed by an endless stream of soulslikes. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, with games like SteelRising providing a great AA...
There’s something about JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure that just fascinates me. I never know if that anime is the single most ridiculous shonen ever made, intentionally or not. I never know if it’s meant to make fun of the ridiculousness of the genre, or if it’s just oblivious to how unsubtle...
LucasArts had a hell of a run in the late 80s and 90s, creating some of the most memorable point-and-click adventures to grace our PCs. Back then it was a battle for dominance between LucasArts and Sierra, at least in terms of the point-and-click adventure market. Sierra found huge success...

Recently, especially on the Nintendo Switch, farming simulators and slice-of-life romps have become a dime a dozen. The market is oversaturated, and there always seems to be a new one coming. It’s insane, but I couldn’t be happier. I’m always ecstatic about the notion of creating a character and infusing...
Two of my favorite games of all time are Rock Band and DOOM. I love rhythm games to death, and I also love loud, dumb, fast-paced, and ultraviolent retro shooters. I would have never thought a team of developers would be crazy enough to try to mix both genres into...
Madden NFL 23
It’s that time of year again, when the NFL season starts up and I start getting the itch to play a few rounds of Madden. Due to the hype of the NFL season starting, I get my hopes up for a great Madden release because I just want to be...
NBA 2K23
Reviewing the yearly iteration of the NBA 2K series is always a bittersweet pill. On one hand, they are fantastic games; ever since I started reviewing games for WTMG, I’ve been tackling them, and they always push the graphical and performance boundaries of the consoles they’re released for. They also...
