GTA Online is bringing the spooky season to gamers
I always like themed online experiences. Destiny was always known for that, and now I know GTA has something going on during Halloween. Anyway, enjoy the official details below. Spooky season is in full swing in GTA Online, bringing triple rewards on Halloween Survivals and Slasher Modes, in addition to double rewards on collecting Jack O’ Lanterns and UFO Business Battles. Plus, hunting down phan...[Read More]
1666: Amsterdam – Impressions – Early Access (PC)
1666: Amsterdam from developer Panache Digital Games hit early access in late August. While it is still very much in development, it’s good enough to preview and discuss. So, without further delay, let’s get right into this witchiness. 1666: Amsterdam stirred up some interest when it was previewed a few months ago at the Summer Game Fest. It looked new, fresh, and at the same time positively creep...[Read More]
Welcome to Elderfield Review (PC)
Whoever made this decision at Kwalee needs a raise. Welcome to Elderfield from developer Chris Cote is a turn-based RPG with a sizeable amount of cozy and adventure. Strangely, it’s also a farming simulator. Honestly, I am not sure how all those genres meshed together so well in this game. On paper, they shouldn’t, but Chris Cote made it work, and work very well. The only hitch in the giddyup is t...[Read More]

KEMOVE K94 Keyboard Review (PC/MAC)
This is our first KEMOVE review, and it’s certainly a good start for the company. Over the last two years, Will Silberman and I have been reviewing keyboards like they were a brand-new technology. We have dipped into Epomakers and others, discovering an entirely new world of keyboard craziness. If you had told me that keyboard reviewing would be this interesting and this much fun, I would have cal...[Read More]
Garfield: Escape from Monday Review (PS5)
Garfield: Escape from Monday, from developer OSome Studio, was released this week. It finds our favorite rotund feline battling tomatoes and big bosses while collecting his favorite food—lasagna. The game is a decent 3D platforming adventure built for a younger audience that doesn’t want too much of a challenge. Is it enough for adults? Only if they want to relax from their Call of Duty days...[Read More]
Silent Hill: Townfall Review (PS5)
I’m torn about this game. On one hand, Silent Hill: Townfall is a spectacular horror game built on stealth, puzzle-solving, and unraveling a huge mystery. On the other hand, it doesn’t encourage combat, and hiding from monsters can feel like a chore. Of course, I am all for new ways to play old series, so here we are. Silent Hill: Townfall, from developer Screen Burn and publisher Kona...[Read More]
Dune: Awakening Review (PS5)
When Dune: Awakening first hit the PC, I was impressed. It captured the majesty of the books, the magic of the movies, and put the player right in the middle of it all. The open-world aspect was all-encompassing and truly brought the Dune experience to life through its gameplay. In other words, I enjoyed it quite a bit. Now, over a year after its initial release, it has made its way to the PlaySta...[Read More]
GTA VI OST featuring some impressive single debuts
Call me impressed. I cannot believe how good that list is on the OST. Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, a collection of 34 brand-new, original tracks from a genre-defying roster of the most exciting artists in the world, is available for pre-save now on all major music streaming services here. Six debut singles are available to listen to today: Yung Lean – That’s It (feat. Future & ...[Read More]
Crimson Moon Review (PC)
Oh, the grind is real. Crimson Moon from developer ProbablyMonsters is an action role-playing roguelike (say that three times) that looks gorgeous but sometimes fumbles its intentions. The positives are that the game looks good, is well put together, and has the right amount of grind to feel like there is a healthy amount of player progression (or a chance to get better as you progress through the...[Read More]
HOT WHEELS Infinite Rush Review (PS5)
I’m sure a younger audience will love this game. Or people who go to Target to take massive amounts of newly stocked toys off the shelf to sell on eBay. HOT WHEELS Infinite Rush from developer Milestone S.r.l releases this week. It’s an open-world racer with plenty of ways to compete, while also charming players with a massive number of HOT WHEELS cars to earn. Taking a page out of Ubisoft’s...[Read More]
The Blood of Dawnwalker Review (PS5)
This could be Bandai Namco’s own Witcher. The Blood of Dawnwalker from developer Rebel Wolves is an open-world game that features a fair amount of meaningful story, lots of good side quests, and unique control schemes that, oddly enough, make sense. While the game is certainly going the Witcher route with glitches and early-release issues, it’s stable enough to deliver everything it said it would,...[Read More]
