Pretty much the only game I’ve been “Dying” to get my hands on is finally here. Techland’s post-apocalyptic open-world game Dying Light 2: Stay Human has been on my radar the moment they announced it, and more recently Techland came out suggesting that the game would take anywhere up to

Bright Memory: Infinite – Review

Futuristic shooters are usually not my thing. Science Fiction/Futuristic shooters are great, but when developers try to mash jump packs and laser weapons into modern settings, that’s where I draw the line. I prefer modern and historic shooters with boots of the ground gameplay, or if it is a science

Back 4 Blood (Xbox Series X) – Review

Ok. I never played the ‘Left 4 Dead’ games and I am glad. I can go into this review with a clear mind and without having to compare to those famously popular games despite the newest zombie horde game ‘Back 4 Blood’ being their spiritual successor. ‘Back 4 Blood’ by

Quake Remastered – Review

It is nostalgia time again as Quake Remastered is out from the original developer, id Software, along with Nightdive Studios, and published by Bethesda Softworks. This brings me back to the old days of fighting over the one computer in the house with six children to play Quake. Being the

Clid The Snail – Preview

For as long as I care to remember, people have questioned what would happen to the Earth if humans were to suddenly die out or vanish. The general consensus is that life for all intents and purposes would go on, animals would thrive, but not all that much would change.

Ask any civilian what Hell is and they will most likely respond with “a place regarded in various religions as a spiritual realm of evil and suffering, often traditionally depicted as a place of perpetual fire beneath the earth where the wicked are punished after death”. Ask any Veteran and

Fallout Worlds – Preview

When Fallout 4 gained mod support on the Xbox, I created all manner of weird and wonderful contraptions. I went to town modding weapons and armour, went crazy building my settlements, and in all, had a wonderful time walking through the game obliterating anything I pointed my explosive-round, double two-shot
