Ghostrunner 2 – Review
Sometimes it’s worth taking a chance on a game. I missed the first Ghostrunner, probably full-up on the cyberpunk aesthetic at the time, but mostly through timing and my own aversion to the idea of a game where I can lose in one hit. However, I had some time – somehow between Baldur’s Gate 3…

Kill it With Fire VR – Review
It’s time to take the fight back to the arachnids, only this time they’re all around you. I reviewed the flat version of Kill It With Fire fairly favourably. It was straightforward arcadey destruction, a fun distraction. This VR release is on one virtual hand pretty much the same game, but on the other disembodied…

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 – Review
The Spider-Man’s (Spider-Men? Spider-People?) are back, this time with a game built for PS5, and boy does that make a difference – but we’ll get to that.

Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun – Review
No one has been this angry at Chaos since Jack Garland in Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin. Get ready to purge the heretics as Warhammer 40k storms onto consoles and PC. The relevant term appears to be “boomer shooter”, a first-person shooter with retro stylings that liken it to Doom and Duke Nukem 3D…

Warpips – Review
We still don’t get a lot of strategy games on console, but we do occasionally get some gems that are a little lighter on the stats and micromanagement. Warpips is one of those slimmed-down offerings, a bit like Swords & Soldier or Castlestorm if you remember those. I guess there are even similarities with Clash…

The Super Mario Bros. Movie – Review
From all the promo for this movie, I had no idea whether it would be a complete cringefest or a legitimate blast.
