30 days in the hole: Prison Architect: PlayStation 4 Edition review

In 2011, the recidivism rate for outgoing prisoners was a gut-wrenching 43.3%, signalling the ever present failings of a criminal justice system that cannot rehabilitate.  The system suffers for putting ignorant and misguided youth both in the system and in the midst of career criminals.  I have a strong

Don’t read more: Inside review

Silence is one of the most effective tools in a composer’s arsenal. It’s contrasting, empty, vacuumous — in the right hands, silence sings as loud as a full horns section. Inside follows in the footsteps of Limbo, as two great games that utilize “silence,” punctuating loud moments with slower,

Extended Stay: The Sims 4 Outdoor Retreat review

With the career and work centereed expansions, it is time for the Sims to take a vacation, and luckily Outdoor Retreat offers just that. With a focus around camping, fishing, and collecting there is a lot of content in this game pack, although it may be the weakest game pack

Obsidian and blood: Elder Scrolls Online: Dark Brotherhood review

I have a feeling that I’m not the only fool who gave good money for Elder Scrolls Online on the PlayStation 4 simply because of brand loyalty.  If you are like me, you’ve probably spent many hours in the game desperate to recreate the sense of control, adventure,

Poor performance in Palanai: Dead Island Riptide Definitive Edition review

The original Dead Island started the series strong in 2011, whereas Riptide in 2013 made for a fairly weak follow-up. The maze-like areas serve to artificially lengthen the game, half of the main quests are centered around mowing down waves of zombies, the side quests are largely uninteresting, and there

Once more, for the Emperor: Impressions of Dawn of War 3’s take on Warhammer 40k

It’s been twelve years since the first Dawn of War rampaged onto PC, bringing the Warhammer 40k tabletop fantasy game to life in brutal fashion. I was a fan of both the original and the sequel, albeit for different reasons. They were two takes on the 40k universe, one
