Lower Decks “Shades of Green” – Review

Come on, roll daddy some double sixes and let this war continue. I’m next on the ICC’s list, aren’t I? Directed by Bob Suarez, best known to us for directing multiple episodes across four of the five seasons, including “Something Borrowed, Something…

Wicked (Part One) Review

I remember as a Sophomore in High School being taken to New York City for a field trip. It was my first time in the Big Apple and I had begun to get into theatre at that time. One of the posters…

Farming Simulator 25 (PC) – Review

To borrow a quote from the world’s most famous farmer (though contestable right now), Jeremy Clarkson, “[farming] is a hard job, and I’m not just saying this to win favor with [farmers]. It’s a hard job.” Not only do you need to…

Gladiator II (Film) Review

Since its announcement, there have been many who wondered if Ridley Scott could deliver a great movie that could rival his own masterpiece. I believe that he has. The touch that Ridley Scott has with the Roman Empire has not vanished over…

Lower Decks “Dos Cerritos” – Review

I’ll regret this if something is found, but to quote Toryn Green: “Leave the memories alone, don’t change a thing.” Directed by Megan Lloyd, Lloyd is best known for directing three pretty good episodes (that I might have been hard on) last…

Call of Duty Black Ops 6 Multiplayer (Xbox Series X) Review

The Call of Duty franchise needs little introduction, but for some who have left the series behind in recent entries, it might be time for a reintroduction. The core elements that have made the games one of the highest-grossing titles nearly every…

Yakuza Kiwami (Nintendo Switch) Review

While it may not be a next-gen game exactly, I was surprised to see the announcement of Yakuza Kiwami coming to the Nintendo Switch. As the console sits comfortably in its twilight years, the addition of a beloved game in a franchise experiencing…

Windblown Early Access (PC) Review

Rogue-likes are not a new genre, but it’s not every day you see a developer create two successful IPs in the genre back-to-back. In fact, the more popular ones, such as Binding of Isaac, get quality-of-life and content updates for years and…

Star Trek: Picard “The Last Generation” – Review

Oh no, not Philadelphia, anything but Philadelphia! Written and directed by top shagger Terry Matalas, there really isn’t anything to add to his credits. At least other than what I already have throughout this third season of Star Trek: Picard. Or the…
