Star Trek: Picard “Absolute Candor” – Review

I think it is appropriate that when I sat down to write and watch Picard today, I cocked my leg over my chair and shouted “Riker!” We’re finally moving forward, we’ve got some proper Picard-ing going on, there is some decent direction, and it…

Rauniot Gets April Release

Tracing the word apocalypse to its Latin origins, it just means uncover. If you trace raunio though, you have to go through proto-Norse languages, early Finnish/Russian Votic, and quite frankly, I can’t be bothered. It basically means ruin when translated from Finnish. Yesterday…

Toys For Bob Reaches Agreement with Microsoft

The industry as a whole has been in a bit of a ditch as we watch thousands of people laid off from their jobs, games canceled left, right, and center, and a renewed focus on live service titles. It is easy to…

Blockbuster Inc. Gets Summer Release

We all agree that Peter Molyneux disappeared up himself sometime around Fable‘s release, and many people credit Lionhead’s success to the Fable series. That might be the case, but I stand by the fact The Movies was such an interesting concept that it kept some of…

Still Wakes the Deep Gets Summer Release

I’m not very nice with particular games, and I think when I previously spoke about The Chinese Room’s Still Wakes the Deep I wasn’t the kindest. I tend not to be when the last notable release from the studio was Everybody’s Gone to the…

Warning: The featured trailer contains graphic scenes and scenes of nudity. Reader’s discretion is advised. I spoke about this a lot with our previous managing editor because we both enjoyed the idea of cutting people up, but I want more games where…

Call of the Wild: The Angler is Free on Epic

Monday, Doctor Who got a “controversial” air date that was about as controversial as wearing a tea cozy when you find one. Tuesday, there is a Fallout-themed Xbox Series X, Steel Seed looks interesting and has a new publisher, and Double Dragon Gaiden: The new one is getting DLC. Wednesday, a…

Star Trek: Picard “The End is the Beginning” – Review

Can we move on please, I’m getting bored of the setup! This episode is directed once again by Hanelle M Culpepper and written by Michael Chabon. This time Chabon is joined by James Duff, with Nick Zayas story editing. Duff is probably…

Highwater (PC) – Review

Set in the shadow of the impending climate fallout due to (among many things) the Über-wealthy and corporate-based pollution, Highwater joins the many games talking climate change now. First released for Netflix’s mobile gaming library, Highwater has finally joined Steam. Not the first of its kind to…

Steven Moffat Returns to Doctor Who

Hold on, I need to engage my sarcasm for a moment: Wow, I am so surprised that this new and upcoming writer is finally getting a shot at his own episode. Announced yesterday while everyone was minding their own business and had…
