“Don’t Sniff Your Steam Deck,” Says Valve

Do I really need to explain this one? The internet is once again at the height of, “Why do you exist to do these things?” In a now-viral post on Reddit, one user by the name of Metapod100 asked Steam Support: “Is it safe…

DREDGE “The Pale Reach” (PC) Review

It might spoil my end-of-year round-up, but there is only one game that captured my attention all year. Mostly because it has a sense of dread without actively running up to you and shouting “Boo! Did I scare you?” DREDGE is rightfully one of…

E3 is Dead, Long Live E3!

Well, it is official, I am the picture of depression. Announced yesterday (almost out of nowhere) the official E3 Twitter page and The Washington Post (because it has nothing better to do) said that 2019 was it for E3. This was the…

The Day Before Dev Shutdown Days After Release

One of the most recent examples of ambition, hype, and dreadful development, The Day Before is a case study of what not to do with a game. The “MMO” was announced back in 2021 with a gameplay trailer showing the basic mechanics, and was…

Oh, I do love it when Jenny comes around with games, a friend to show us some lovely wholesome games, and some less-than-exciting games. It is that time of year once again that we’re covering a Wholesome Snack and it was a…

GTA VI Release Set For 2025

Do I even need to explain things here? One of the most highly anticipated games for the last 10 years, since GTA V‘s release, just got its first trailer after a number of leaks. One last week as a result of an employee’s…

Wizordum (PC) Preview

A shiny modern take on the ’90s fantasy shooters some of us remember as Ultima, Wizardry, and the very early Elder Scrolls, Wizordum is the word nostalgia but in high-elvish, or something. In other words, everything is set to look flat but textured to seem 3D,…

Prime Gaming – December 2023

Oh Jeffrey, you are getting on my nerves, just have your PR people simply say: “We’ll tell you about the crap so we can load up with surprises later in the month itself.” Some might not know because we didn’t cover it,…
