Truck World: Australia – First Haul (PC) – Preview

Half of my love for the land down under is almost entirely based on old Billy Connolly travel programs, but also the idea of the road trains. Like any raging psychopath with a love for trucking in games, there are parts of…

Bonaparte – A Mechanized Revolution (PC) – Preview

Bonaparte is not just the thing you shout as you pull the meat from the bone of a chicken leg. It’s also Napoleon’s vain way of dedicating himself to France during the revolution most of us know about because we had history…

DC: Dark Legion (PC) Preview
