  • An Early Access look at Starmetal Crusaders

    An Early Access look at Starmetal Crusaders

    We don’t often get such an early look at a game so when the chance came I jumped on board to check out Starmetal Crusaders. Looking at the store page Starmetal Crusaders (SMC) promised a blend of third-person shooter and RTS, immediately recalling memories of Double Fine’s Brutal Legend. That game has its detractors not…

  • Retropolis 2: Never Say Goodbye

    Retropolis 2: Never Say Goodbye

    Most people think of VR games as either gimmick-driven or involving leaping around your living room like Tigger with a blindfold. Retropolis 2 is one of the third type: a classically “flat” genre game that has been elevated by dropping it into VR. With the number of escape room-like VR games, I guess point and…

  • A Tactical Future – Capes – Review

    A Tactical Future – Capes – Review

    It’s probably bad form to start a review by directly comparing it to another game, but remember how people wanted Marvel Midnight Suns to be X-com with superpowers but were disappointed by random card pulls and small arenas? Well, Capes is here to save the day in a tactical turn-based combat with a team of…

  • Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End – Anime Review

    Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End – Anime Review

    A human Hero, a human Priest, a dwarf Axe Master, an elf Mage and a journey to save the world from the Demon King. Sounds pretty cliché right? But what happens after that?

  • Simulated Space Chaos – Space Docker VR – Review

    Simulated Space Chaos – Space Docker VR – Review

    My PSVR2 may not be covered in dust, but my PlayStation HOTAS certainly was until I discovered Space Docker VR. It has been out a while but still provides a unique experience on PSVR2—space flight, complete with Newtonian laws of physics.

Is Star Wars The Acolyte really “that” bad? – Review
Is Star Wars The Acolyte really “that” bad? – Review

There’s so much fear, hate and suffering surrounding the Internet discourse of The Acolyte that it’s tempting to let this review fall to countering arguments rather than critiquing the show itself. It would be much easier to review without all that noise and to be fair it would also be much easier to watch and enjoy. The Acolyte has its flaws, but perhaps surprisingly they’re not the same flaws that The Internet is crying about. About 100 years before the events of The Phantom Menace, a group of force-sensitive witches raise two girls. Things are a bit creepy and cult-like, […]

Launder Your Way To Success in Arcade Paradise VR – Review
Launder Your Way To Success in Arcade Paradise VR – Review

Arcade Paradise VR doesn’t mess around when it comes to nostalgia. The main menu drops you in front of a classic arcade cabinet in some black void with a carpet that instantly teleported me back twen… thirt… a good number of years. Man, I’m getting old. Once this game gets going, you’ll be managing your own arcade keeping the place tidy, buying new machines, setting the cost per play and bonus you get to play the games in your spare time! There are challenges on each of the 37 games available that once completed boost the cabinets’ popularity. So being […]

Are you ready for Rogue Flight? – Review
Are you ready for Rogue Flight? – Review

Rogue Flight slapped me in the face with a retro anime-inspired trailer mere weeks ago, and now it’s here (or nearly, the launch date is 25th October) on PS5, PC, Switch and XBSX. It’s a blast from the past with some good old-school arcade-inspired shooting ‘em up. Think of something like Afterburner. Or minigames from countless other titles including Bayonetta and Kingdom Hearts? Please don’t tune-out at my Gummi Ship allusion, Rogue Flight is different! Primarily, Rogue Flight is a 3D third-person space shooter with your view set behind your overpowered starfighter as waves of enemies and giant bosses fly […]

Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports – Review
Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports – Review

What we have with Looney Tunes: Wacky World of Sports is a collection of four sports games: Golf, Tennis, Football (Soccer), and Basketball. All four are solid, if rather basic, but given the subject matter here, I don’t think anyone buying this will be looking for deep simulations! These are meant to be light-hearted, arcade-style fun, best experienced with friends. Golf is basic, as I say. You can switch between an overhead view to gauge distance and a behind-character angle to take the shot, which is taken by pressing “A” to start a power bar, “A” to stop it, and […]
