Forza Horizon 5 review — ¡Dame más!

Imagine driving your favorite vehicle but you’re racing someone in a giant monster truck. Two more trucks show up and they’re not just racing you, they’re doing flips and entertaining you while you race them to the finish line. Then once the race is over, you’re

Just Dance 2022 review — Better than the last

As soon as you boot up Just Dance 2022, it immediately feels like Ubisoft is phoning it in. It’s the exact same interface as Just Dance 2021, which is the same as 2020, which is the same as 2019. Ubisoft has gone from trying to compel you to buy

Back 4 Blood review — Stick with the old, make it feel new

Turtle Rock Studios tries to reach back into its history and grab the joy of shooting zombies and retool it as a modern-day spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead. For the most part, Back 4 Blood is a fun multiplayer game with friends or randoms, but it can get unusually

Battlefield 2042 preview — It’s just Battlefield

Battlefield 2042 might be DICE and EA’s most ambitious Battlefield game and, from my first glance at the open beta with roughly about seven hours of play, you can immediately tell that despite 128 players on Xbox Series X, PS5, and PC, it still flows like the Battlefield we

Steel Assault review — Tough as steel

If any of the Soulsborne games were a 2D side-scrolling run and gun, I’d probably enjoy them a lot more. Steel Assault is that tough-as-nails, trial by error kind of platformer, and its style is inspired by old-school, wallet-draining 90’s arcade games like Metal Slug, but also features

Plunder Panic preview — Will gladly hit the panic button

As I play Plunder Panic (say that three times fast), I’m reminded of the days I used to sit in my garage playing on my Commodore 64. There’s a simplicity about the way this Early Access 2D brawler looks, sounds, and plays, but it doesn’t feel outdated.

Hindsight 20/20: Wrath of Raakshasa review — Hindsight would help this game

There’s a difference between choices that change an outcome and choices we care about. The choices we care about are the ones that matter. Hindsight 20/20: Wrath of Raakshasa completely misses that distinction. It’s an action-adventure, choice-driven driven RPG that constantly presents high-stakes situations to make you

Balls don’t lie – Dodgeball Academia review

Dodgeball Academia is an unsuspecting RPG built around playing a sport nearly everyone loves: dodgeball. You follow Otto, the new student at an academy that is built around teaching kids the art of dodgeball, and he is bent on becoming the dodgeball master. The Pokemon vibes are all over this
