Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game has not surprised me at all. It is as I predicted in a Jimquisition a while ago - just another intellectual property slapped onto an unimaginative multiplayer scavenger hunt. ...

Do you have a taste for profit like Nathan Drake? Sony announces the PS5 as its most profitable generation. This is totally not at odds with the tiny violin so many "AAA" spokespeople have played over the years.

Burgle Bros. (17:30)

The game industry can be really disgusting, and Star Wars: Hunters proves it. A vicious, nasty, predatory little monster. CLICK HERE to see me absolutely go off on one.

Konami showed off a lot of Silent Hill 2 Remake recently. It has some promising stuff. Unfortunately, a lot of that promise is of bad, bad nonsense.

I almost didn't review Senua's Sage: Hellblade 2. It took a lot of powering through my own mental health struggles to deal with a representation of someone else's, but that's a necessary cost of entry I was eventually able to pay. 2024-06-01 18:36:53 +0000 UTC View Post

Our first 10/10 in quite a well, and deservingly so! Indika is a truly unique and special experience, a game that boldly tackles its subject matter in both touching and deeply strange ways. CLICK HERE for a big ol' pile of positive praise!...

In trying to justify closing down various Bethesda studios, including Hi-Fi Rush developer Tango Gameworks, Microsoft has basically admitted game developers are doomed. When a publisher defines success not by actual success, but by whatever criteria they need to justify their mercenary costcutting, you have truly rigged the game so the studios c...

Crow Country has been getting a lot of traction among survival horror fans, and with good reason. It's a really, really good retro horror that does it miles better than its peers. CLICKING HERE will take you to my review!

I was given a copy of the wonderfully named Slayers X: Terminal Aftermath: Vengance of the Slayer. A sequel to Hypnospace Outlaw, it's a wildly funny FPS parody that came out on limited platforms last year and is everywhere else today. I like it, and you can 2024-05-14 14:01:17 +0000 UTC View Post
Friday the 13th, Predator, Puppet Master, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and bloody Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Alongside Dead by Daylight, the saturation of asymmetrical multiplayer based on horror icons is boring the heck out of me.

Wix sucks as a website backend and it made posting a simple website gallery ten times more of a hassle than it should've been. Anyway, here is another Snaptime for you! I went through my old screens for Lords of the Fallen and I present them with my stupid thoughts. 2024-05-11 13:49:35 +0000 UTC View Post
It’s harder than you’d think.
Games we played this week include:
Hades II (3:45)
Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel (23:35)
Puppet Master (30:45)
If you know me, you know I love my Puppet Master. Well, I love the puppets from Puppet Master - the films are almost universally horrible. In that regard, Puppet Master: The Game is the real deal, because it's dreadful, boring, and downright ugly. 2024-05-09 10:00:55 +0000 UTC View Post
It's Stellar Blade, a game that doesn't deserve the absurd amount of "controversy" drummed up about it. It's a pretty decent mimicry of Nier with a lot less clothing. CLICK HERE for the full review!

Digital Deluxe Editions? What a con! Stephanie Sterling? What a mark! We all need reminders sometimes that a scam is a scam, no matter how alluring an exclusive outfit they try to swindle you with. This video lays out exactly why you shouldn't be suckered in.

Helldivers 2, Sker Ritual, and (hilariously) Suicide Squad, have all been borderline (or totally) unplayable at crucial moments thanks to their online failings. The Outlast Trials could've stood to do better, too. It's clear online-focused games are struggling to maintain themselves lately, and the fact they have NOTHING to offer players beyond ...

Sker Ritual continues the trend of online games being borderline unplayable at launch, and that’s about all it contributes to the medium of interactive entertainment.
