Hellpoint (XBO) – Review

It is the same with every single Souls–Borne, Sekiro and Souls-like game. You have to delve into your own head like it is Psychonauts and play the minigame of Find and Replace. One minute your Estus is called “Ashen flasks,” your souls are “Blood echoes,”…

Yakuza Kiwami 2 (XBO) – Review

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, the Yakuza series is a magical little bundle of madness and joy in every single way. Partly a spectacle fighter, part crime thriller, part visual novel, part anime, and completely mental. It is mad to…

NASCAR Heat 5 (XBO) Review

“If you goin’ hard enough left, you’ll find yourself turnin’ right.” Right, now I’ve expended my entire knowledge of NASCAR (via Disney’s Cars) in the first line, I’ve set the tone. Yes, outside of the Midwest and South, for the most part, NASCAR has…

Desperados III (XBO) Review

Hardcore stealth games are kind of like puzzles, but with a lot more swearing. I’m a fan of the stealth genre, give me a Hitman of the 2000s, the recent Dues Ex: Mankind Divided, Dishonored, or Watch_Dogs 2, I’m happy with all of them. In fact,…

Assetto Corsa Competizione (XBO) – Review

I can’t explain it; I enjoy driving in games. Not just these racing games where all you do is drive in circles for hours, swearing that you aren’t going one-millionth of a nano-second faster than the last time. I enjoy driving around…

Tour de France 2020 (Xbox One) – Review

Cycling, it’s that thing you are expected to do as a kid to gain a little bit of freedom from your parents. Just look at E.T., Stranger Things, or IT, and you’ll see that all the kids have bikes. They have them because it…

Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood (Xbox One) Review

A few months ago I decided to replay every mainline Assassin’s Creed game. My original plan was to play one a month but life really got in the way of that one, so my goal now is to relax and enjoy each entry as…

Ori and the Will of the Wisps (XBO) – Review

Moon Studios left gamers in awe with 2015’s Ori and the Blind Forest. Does 2020’s Ori and the Will of the Wisps compare? Yes, and in rare fashion, builds on a great series debut with enhanced experiences worth all the trouble several of the…

Two Point Hospital (XBO) – Review

Five days after I was born, I was rushed into hospital with a complete inability to breathe while laying down. Since that day 23 years ago, I’ve spent a lot of time in hospitals, getting surgeries on my back (shoulder blades), chest,…

Zombie Army 4: Dead War Review

The Sniper Elite series is something I enjoy, but never rave about. The undead side of these games, the Zombie Army series, is something I had no experience with ahead of this review. In Zombie Army 4: Dead War, the elements worth loving about the Rebellion developed…
