WWE 2K24 Fans Unhappy About Pat McAfee DLC

Players of WWE 2K24 are less than pleased with the newest downloadable pack that centers around The Pat McAfee Show. Comprised solely of real-life members of commentator Pat McAfee’s podcast, ire has been drawn as a large vocal group of fans who would have…

SCHiM (PC) Review

Much like in my recent #BLUD review, visuals alone can be enough to sell a game. This doubles for SCHiM, which is just about as eye-catching as can be with its clever use of one two-toned color scheme per level. More than just easy…

Chao Garden-inspired Bobo Bay out now via Public Alpha

Demos are a great way to reel in players and secure a purchase. So much so, that Steam held a Next Fest recently, chock full of previews so players could add to their ever-growing wishlists to get excited for. Smack dab at…

#BLUD (PC) Review

Sometimes, the selling point of a game is its art style or presentation. Grabbing the eye of a passing trailer viewer can secure a sale in the first few seconds, and in my case, #BLUD was an easy purchase due to its ability…

The End of You (PC) Review

There’s nothing like having a good cry to a sad movie or television show – something that’s either relatable or so deeply moving that it transcends the screen and resonates with the viewer. It’s tough for video games to replicate this due…

Pacific Drive (PC) Review

Genre-blending has been the secret sauce for tons of developers in the 2020s so far. It’s great to see such creativity bring about games that could have never existed before, especially after the 2010s brought about a certain monotony in its best-selling…

ROBOBEAT (PC) Review

Two of my favorite gaming genres are rhythm and first-person shooters. A few titles have taken on this blending of genres, in the cases of Metal: Hellsinger and BPM: Bullets Per Minute, both to great acclaim. The central mechanic of doing more damage if…

Devolver Direct 2024 Roundup

The time has come for another Devolver Direct. Anyone familiar with Devolver Digital’s unique spin on their summer presentation knows that this obtuse, left-of-center publisher doesn’t just go from trailer to trailer. Devolver HAS to add a weird spin on every second of…
