It’s no secret that I really enjoyed The Outer Worlds. Back when it was released, I played it from the moment I got home from work, right up until I went to bed. I was meant to be reviewing one of the Call of Duty games. Needless to say, when

There is a certain something about a come-back story, even when the odds are stacked against them. It has been over two decades since the release of the over-the-top and zany “Ready 2 Rumble Boxing” and much like the ‘Rocky’ universe, the ‘Rumble” franchise has risen from the ashes, once
