‘EA Sports F1 ’24’ Review – PS5

In the words of the great Sturgill Simpson from the album ‘SOUND AND FURY,’ going full speed is the greatest escape for some. However, most of us regular folks must obey the laws of the road and physics so as not to cause major issues. That’s where the beauty of video games and simulations comes into play. I’ll probably never hit over 130mph (legally) but I can get a sense ...[Read More]

Speed Crew Review (PS5)

The dream of being a race car driver has been with me ever since I was a little kid. I have fond memories is tearing around the farm on a go-kart thinking I was ripping around Watkins Glen in a NASCAR Cup Series car. Sadly, money and talent weren’t in my favor. However, one thing that was is my love to tinker and work. Dad taught me a lot about working on cars and how to fix problems. I stil...[Read More]

Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged Review (PS5)

Driving at high speeds has always been one of my dreams. I say dream because I live in a world ruled by laws, regulations, and repercussions of my actions. Taking my stock Ford Ranger at top speed down 75 Southbound won’t end well for anyone at all, myself included. However, I’ve always dreamed of it. That’s where gaming has stepped in. Getting iRacing, Forza, and others to help ...[Read More]

NHL ’24 (PS5)

'NHL 24' is definitely a step back in the right direction...While there are still some negative spots for the game, this is still worth the price of a ticket to play in the NHL and makes me feel excited for the future.

Red Dead Redemption (PS5) Review

I grew up in a world of the Wild West. Not literally, I was born in 1997 with helicopter parents. However, I was a child of the spaghetti western. The worlds of Dodge City, Kansas, and the Ponderosa ran on the TV like clockwork. Heroes of ‘The Rifleman’ and Matt Dillon shined in their black and white portrayals. Louis L’Amour novels sat on the shelves from when my dad would read ...[Read More]

‘F1 23’ Review – PS5

Anymore, there is a lot of saturation for Formula 1 in America. There has been rapid growth in the sport in North America. Three Grand Prix in the USA now alone. The series is still seeing major success from the Netflix Series, ‘Drive to Survive’, and it’s clear that the series is here to stay. How does that popularity transfer to the gaming world though? ‘F1 23’ is t...[Read More]

‘Need for Speed Unbound’ Review – PS5

Some of my favorite gaming memories are from when I was a kid playing ‘Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2’ on my Playstation 2, listening to ‘Country Gold with Rowdy Yates’ on a radio clock with way too tinny speakers. The franchise always holds a special place in my heart. I have countless hours into ‘Undercover’ and my first ever Xbox 360 game was ‘The Run’ when it was release...[Read More]

‘NHL 23’ Review – PS5

I never learned how to ice skate, but I’ve always dreamed of being a hockey goalie and the idea of being a hero and making insane acrobatic saves. Being the last line of defense, or just being my true crazy self because, to be a goalie, you have to be crazy. Sadly I was cursed to be 5 foot 5 and born somewhere where there isn’t any ice. My only hope or chance to live out these dreams h...[Read More]

‘F1 Manager 2022’ PC Review

The prestige and elegance of Formula 1 have changed ever since ‘Drive to Survive’ came out on Netflix. Learning how ruthless and aggressive teams can be, how the sport can put up above the clouds one minute, then back to reality and out of a ride the next (see Daniel Riccardo and McLaren). It’s such a money-driven and illustrious sport that you’d kill to be a fly on the wal...[Read More]

‘Midnight Fight Express’ – Review

I’ve always felt cheated as a person growing up in the early 2000s. TV shows, movies, and even some games getting censored for violence and gore. Heck, it was only about two years ago that I saw “RoadHouse” with Patrick Swasey for the first time. Watching a man ‘rip’ another throat out was madness. Granted, that was about as real and as cheesy as you’d expect fo...[Read More]
