WRC 10
Not long ago, the Dirt Rally series used to be the Ferrari of rallying games, while WRC was trailing behind like a Ford Pinto with a flat tire. The way the developers at Kylotonn have managed to constantly improve this once maligned series into a well-respected and super polished racing...
Recompile looks like a surefire hit at first glance. There are tons of elements about it that make it stand out, at least in a commercial sense. This is a 3D metroidvania set inside a computer, with you playing as an anthropomorphic embodiment of a virus dealing with a malfunctioning...
I miss Might and Magic. Both the mainline series and the phenomenal Heroes of Might and Magic spinoff. It was the game that put blending strategy and RPGs on the map. It’s also the reason I’m rambling about old RPG franchises now. See, there was a game before the first...
The world-renowned cable network AMC (yes, the Breaking Bad channel) is still willing to make an impression in the gaming industry. Their first outing, Airplane Mode, was so weird and pointless that I still don’t know if it was a self-aware work of pure irony or the dumbest attempt at...
We know (and appreciate) that THQ Nordic loves to remaster/remake and re-release cult hits from the PS2 and PS3 era of gaming at a rapid pace. Typically with hilarious puns on their titles, such as Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning and SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated. The thing...
I would love to know why there are so many motorbike racing games in the market. Is it because it’s easier to render, and cheaper to license: a Kawasaki Ninja than a Porsche 911? Is it because there are very few high performance models in the market, meaning that you...
I’ll be honest and admit that I Am Dead from Hollow Ponds didn’t really grab my attention when I first saw it advertised. The art design left a lot to be desired and it wasn’t clear what the game even was from the trailer. I was ready to brush it...
The success of Sonic the Hedgehog in the early 90’s made every single developer and publisher in this known universe try to create a mascot platformer to compete with the blue blur and that chubby Italian plumber. Some of them succeeded, but a ton of them ended up becoming the...
I’ll be up front with you right away here and tell you that if you’re looking for a super highly detailed review from someone with actual landscaping experience, this is not that review. I currently don’t even have a lawn to maintain as I live in an area that takes...
At the end of 2020, we got a small collection of Space Invaders games called Space Invaders Forever. Despite not being a particularly bad collection of games, I still thought it was a bit of disappointment. Especially when you consider it didn’t feature any of the classic games from the...
I was a little hesitant at first taking on the review for Paint the Town Red, especially after the last arcade bar brawler I reviewed, Drunkn Bar Fight. That game was just a mess all around and with Paint the Town Red having a similar concept it obviously caused me to pause. Well,...
I remember the days when 90% of Warhammer games we got were Space Hulk variations. From Space Hulk: Tactics to Deathwing, mobile titles, everything was about Space Marines in broken ships. Which was cool, but limited. In recent years, we’ve finally gotten a bit more variety, thankfully. Not just with...
