Retro 90’s Racer Inertial Drift arrives August 9th

If you are a 90’s kid, you grew up on two things: The Fast and the Furious and Need For Speed. While Need For Speed was a video game and The Fast and the Furious was a street-racing focused action movie, the two had a lot of common, from the style to the attitude, and of course, the cars. Drifting, turning, speeding, whipping through the streets, the 90’s ushered an age of driving with attitude. Sharing in this attitude, the team at Level 91 Entertainment is creating a very s

Review: The Complex

Many decades ago, at the onset of new video game technologies, developers started filming live-action shots and scenes into their games. This was known as Full Motion Video, or FMV for short. Games such as Off-Road Interceptor Extreme, utilized the FMV formate to tell its story, switching between FMV and a 3D vehicular shooter. Other titles, such as Tomcat Alley, were entire films that had players pushing button prompt to successfully complete the scene. Looking back on the

PAX EAST 2020: Ghostrunner Hands-On Impressions

As this generation comes to an end, the top trending theme is the theme of cyberpunk. Ruiner, Black Future ’88, and naturally, Cyberpunk 2077 are just a small inkling of games that take place within this genre of science fiction. As more games take to this theme, the need to stand out is essential, and Ghostrunner seeks to slice its way through the competition. Coming from 3D Realms and Developer One More Level, Ghostrunner is a first-person action game where players shed th

Predator: Hunting Grounds Public Beta Impressions

Predator: Hunting Grounds is based on the 1987 hit Predator. This movie keeps on giving, even more than 30 years later after its release. The scifi action thriller, which features an impossibly buff ragtag team of military special forces go face-to-face with an alien warrior, is still respected and lauded to this very day for numerous reasons. Its action is delightfully over-the-top. The practical effects of the Predator are impressive. The combination of action, humor, and h

DOGFIGHTER – WW2 On PlayStation 4 Available Now

Battle Royale games are a dime a dozen in the gaming world, with titles, such as Fortnite, Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) and Apex: Legends taking front and center in the genre. The time has come for something entirely different and immensely enjoyable. A new type of Battle Royale arrived in the PlayStation store last fall with quite a few interesting takes on the genre. There is no island to fight on, no walls to build, and no buildings to run on, there is the wide-o

The Mandalorian is being widely regarded as the most authentic Star Wars experience since Disney acquired Lucasfilm in 2012. Featuring new characters and a Wild West-inspired world within Star Wars, the show was among the most wildly streamed shows of 2019. With baby Yoda of course, the show absolutely skyrocketed in popularity and united the fandom.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered

Ghostbusters: The Video Game was originally released in 2009 for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC. When Ghostbusters: The Video Game was announced, the game garnered a considerable amount of ambition but had a higher degree of skepticism put against it. At the time, it was decreed that video games based on licensed properties were of extremely average to criminally terrible quality, some reaching and falling below bedrock expectations.

Many video games are releasing in the Fall, and for several months, it is a rolling conveyor belt of endless goods. Many smaller games are released within these cracks and many provide their degree of entertainment and interaction. For many of these games, they aim to please and entertain, but not to innovate or revolutionize established mechanics. These particular games simply seek to entertain and have fun and that is where Habroxia falls. Habroxia is a new space ship shoot

I think I’ll always try to focus on fun, gameplay, graphics, and the normal review pros/cons stuff. But, I also want to focus on the future and the developers themselves, to highlight the people behind the games we know and love (and sometimes not so much) to get a taste of some of the behind the scenes stuff (if I can).
