Fallout 76: The Pitt – Review

As we all know, Fallout 76 had a very rocky start. It felt very empty and the story wasn’t as enthralling as in previous titles. Since its release, Bethesda has listened to the community and has been slowly bringing life back into Appalachia, initially with raiders and settlers, and then

PAC-MAN WORLD Re-PAC – Review

It’s been 22 years since Pac-Man World came to consoles, which was a massive change in its day, changing to a 3D Platformer from the Pac-Man we all grew up playing in the arcades, and Now Production & Bandai Namco have done the great Re-Pac of this classic title. This

Session: Skate Sim – Preview

Skate games have always been something I’ve enjoyed since I was a kid and even tried to take up skating myself. Only getting the basics down like kickflips, 50-50 grinds, and sometimes pulling off varial flips, I decided to stick to the video game adaptations. I always find myself hanging
