Overwatch 2 Ramattra impressions – Survivable and deadly

There’s no doubt in everyone’s mind that the tank department is lacking a few characters. Upon the release of Overwatch 2 we did receive Junker Queen, who once was the most survivable tank on the roster (until she got nerfed into oblivion). Now, she’s far less of

Warhammer 40K: Darktide review – I am a warrior!

Player vs Enemy, even just saying those words gets me uncomfortable. We’ve had many games in the past come out from this genre, and of the 100 or so released, we might get one or two gems hidden in the sand. Most recently, I’ve played Aliens: Fireteam Elite,

Overwatch 2 review – The next generation of competitive gaming

Let me ask you a question. At their core, what makes multiplayer games fun for you? You might say it’s “a sense of community” or “the competitive spirit”. For me, it’s the reward of knowing I’m working towards something. Every win, hell, every second of the experience

Soulstice review – Sensory overload

We can all agree that the hack and slash genre can be hit or miss. On the one hand you have God of War, which is just amazing. On the other, you get the unfortunate miss of Babylon’s Fall. Oof, that one’s not been taken too highly. I’

SoundPEATS Mini Pro vs Air3 Pro review – Affordable earbuds just got better

It’s safe to say that music and sound design make up for a huge chunk of our gaming experiences, even if it is subliminal. Games like Doom try to put big bassy sounds in just about anything that can move, while others like Elden Ring create a sense of

Winter Ember review – for the stealth purists

I’m a massive sucker for stealth games, especially now that they’re such a dying breed. If you’ve read my reviews before, you’ll know that these games are my bread and butter. I love them to bits, and it really sucks seeing them being trodden on and

Teardown review – Only a physics demo

The last time I truly played a voxel game was Cloudpunk, and if you’ve read that review then you’ll know my thoughts on how that went. Since then, voxel games have left a bad taste in my mouth. But Teardown? Now that was something that was sure to
