Racing is a weird genre in board games. It feels as if one day in the last decade all the big names got on a conference call and agreed that racing is for filthy casuals, because, with a few noticeable exceptions, racing games have been the hobby’s red-headed stepchild.

Dinosaurs, time travel, and a wargame are three things never expected to be in a video game together and it sounds fantastic! Capcom previously announced Exoprimal, but today Exoprimal launches on June 14, 2023. An open beta will run from March 17-19 for those wanting to play ahead of the

I recently obtained a Meta Quest 3S which is, overall, pretty great. But like many electronics it came with a downside in that it constantly needs to be charged. Worse yet, the controllers take AA batteries. BATTERIES! Not rechargeable lithium ion like you would expect. That means I either need

I’m mad at Chris Matthew. Like I said in my review, I quite enjoy my time with An Age Contrived, but the Folklore & Pilgrimage expansion fills in some holes I didn’t notice were there until I played with it, and now I’ve got to wait until

I’ll never forget my first interaction on Kickstarter. A little game made by Warhorse Studios called Kingdom Come: Deliverance – a medieval RPG – needed support. Given my affinity for not only RPGs but the historical nature of the game, I backed it instantly, and the rest is history. Now, almost

Flying In: My Adventures in Filmmaking was a thoughtful, refreshing look at the state of independent filmmaking, and in no way what I was expecting. When I first heard of the memoir, I was not enthused at the idea of a producer talking about themselves. I pictured self-aggrandizing stories of

Hello Kitty Island Adventure has to unironically be one of the most anticipated releases in the cozy community ever since it started making waves on Apple Arcade. From its status as a meme from South Park and being trapped behind a mobile gaming wall, it was hard to believe it

Most people seem content with laptops and tablets, but personally, I need a desktop computer. A big reason behind that is gaming, yes, but it also helps a lot to have work stuff in a specific place that I cannot move. It lets me more easily take breaks without being
