Weekend Whammy: CDPR’s Fall From Grace & Tenet Kind of Sucks
Cyberpunk 2077 finally launching should have been one of the beacons of hope in 2020, a moment where we could all rejoice at this epic RPG making it to shelves. Instead it seems 2020 has continue to poop on us all. Cyberpunk 2077 is a mess from top to bottom, and while the general consensus…

Bugsnax Review – Wait, Is This A Horror Game?
Bugsnax is the kind of game that could only have been summoned forth by someone suffering from an intense fever who then decided to get stark-raving drunk and topped off the entire day with a mushroom trip gone horrifyingly wrong. I can imagine them now, huddled in a corner, ranting and raving. The next day…

Playstation 5 Console Review – Tower of Power
Having been absurdly lucky enough to stumble into a PS5 pre-order among the absolute chaos, I’ve now had the Playstation 5 for a few weeks and have been playing it every day. So, with lots of thoughts about Sony’s newest, shiniest, biggest console swirling about my head, I present to you my rambling review of…

I Hit A Game Breaking Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla Bug
The plan was to review Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla, a difficult proposition because OH MY GOD, IT’S HUGE! According to Ubisoft, Valhalla is actually smaller than the bloated Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey, but it doesn’t feel that way. Anyway, along the way I’ve discovered that Valhalla is a bug-ridden game, filled with not only the typical Ubisoft…

Weekend Whammy: PS5 Console Impressions, & Valhalla Impressions
Okay, so at what point does the next-gen become current-gen? Because, obviously both the new Xbox and new Playstation are out and while you can’t buy them easily they technically are the current-gen now, aren’t they? And the PS4 and the Xbox One are last-gen, surely? And yet…I still find myself using the term “next-gen”…

Spider-Man: Miles Morales Review – PS5’s Killer App?
Before getting into the review proper, it’s probably worth establishing exactly what Spider-Man: Miles Morales is, aside from obviously being a video game about a Spider-Man. Even Sony and Insomniac didn’t seem to know exactly what this was when they revealed it, leaving loads of people trying to determine if it was going to be…

DiRT 5 Review – Let’s Get Dirty, Baby
With Codemasters being bought by Take-Two for a substantial £750-million ( a deal due to the be finalised in Q1 of 2021) it looks like we can expect more annual DiRT, GRID and F1 games since that’s a major part of Take-Two’s business plan.

Watch Dogs: Legion Review – Play As Anyone, Care About No One
Watch Dogs: Legion takes place in a future London where drones cruise through the sky, cars drive themselves and everybody dress like they’ve just walked off the set of a punk rock video. However, a private security company by the name of Albion essentially rules London following a series of devastating bombings that are blamed…

Weekend Whammy: I’m Commander Shepard, And This Is My Favourite Blog On The Internet
Somewhere in the middle of all the news about next-gen, COVID, the election in America, lockdowns in the UK and everything else I think I just switched off. I didn’t want to write a Weekend Whammy because I didn’t know what to say. I should talk about a lot of the big next-gen news, but…

Pumpkin Jack Review – Halloween Is Over, But The Spooks Aren’t
Back during the days of the Playstation 2, the cheerful, charming mascot platformer was all the rage, from Spyro the Dragon to Crash Bandicoot, both of which have gotten remastered or remade. These days the cutesy platformer isn’t as popular as it once was, but every now and then a new one turns up and…
