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

PAX EAST 2020: Ghostrunner Hands-On 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.

Its action is delightfully over-the-top. The practical effects of the Predator are impressive. The combination of action, humor, and h

Simulacra 2 (PC Review)

There’s your story, right there. There’s obviously a lot more going on with Simulacra 2 than that, but that summarizes the plot pretty well. I’m a big fan of video game mystery games and then finding out that Simulacra 2 was a “full-motion video” game (scenes shot in real life), I was on board.

Comanche – After A Ten Year Absence, THQ Nordic Brings Back Classic Helicopter Simulator

Regrettably, due to a variety of budgetary concerns, as well as the rise of UAV, the RAH-66 program was canceled after 8 years of testi
