Bleak Sword DX Review
What drew me to more8Bit’s Bleak Sword DX was part style and part nostalgia. The style part was restricting players to a tiny map where they chaotically take on enemies and quickly progress. Getting quick, brief experiences pushed towards immediate progression is a style of game I enjoy. It means there isn’t much of a commitment to the gameplay, and the rewards are much faster when you consistent...[Read More]
Super Mega Baseball 4 Review
I’m usually the sports person tasked with taking on everything sports for the site. I’m always interested in seeing exactly what sports game devs have come up with to make a sports title more engaging and fresher. Believe me, after about 15 years of reviewing sports titles, I can tell you that developers usually get super creative when it comes to keeping sports games fresh. Madden NFL did it in a...[Read More]
Kingdom Rush Origins Review
I think I’m creeping up on a record for the number of Kingdom Rush games reviewed within a six-month span. It’s a record I would gladly hold, of course, as I have thoroughly if not addictively enjoyed the series so far on the Xbox. It might be the best Xbox game/series that I have played in 2023. Hmmm. Anyway! The good folks at Ironhide Game Studio have been churning them out lately, and the lates...[Read More]
F1 ’23 Preview – Hands-on Impressions
Digitalchumps was privy to a preview of F1 ’23 this past week. Unsurprisingly, the game series just keeps getting better with every new release. From what we could tell having played the grand prix mode, time trials, and the Braking Point campaign (clever name, btw), this year’s F1 game is on the right track. So, dear readers, sit back, rev that engine a little bit, and let’s talk about what Codem...[Read More]
After Us Review
I love good preachy games, and there are plenty of them out there. The most infamous of the bunch is the Fallout series, which shows how war created by simple-minded and power-hungry individuals can devastate a landscape. Huh. That sounds familiar. *looks at Russia intensely* Anyway, developer Piccolo and publisher Private Division have thrown their magical warning of environmental damage from hum...[Read More]
Sway Minioke LED Go Review
On those long days of playing games that are less than great, sometimes a break is needed to clear one’s mind of all the negative review thoughts that have built up during the reviewing process. There has to be something to loosen your brain goose up a bit. I mean, there’s only so much bad gameplay you can take in a short amount of time before you need to walk away, get out of it, and clear your m...[Read More]
Final Fantasy XVI – Hands-on Preview
A few weeks ago, we had the opportunity to visit Square Enix in Los Angeles and have a hands-on preview of Final Fantasy XVI, one of the more anticipated releases of this year. A total of six hours was spent with the game, and we have a lot to tell you about what you should expect next month with its impending release. Before we get into some nitty-gritty specifics, you should know that this is th...[Read More]
LEGO 2K Drive Review
LEGO 2K Drive from the good folks at 2K and Visual Concepts is both a childhood dream come true and at times a cumbersome game that drags here and there. First, the memorable and positive. Way back in the 1980s, my brothers and I used to build LEGO vehicles and try to see who could survive multiple head-on collisions. Just typing that out makes it feel warped, but trying to construct one of the mo...[Read More]
So I Married an Axe Murderer getting the 4KUHD treatement
When I think of the 90s, I think of this movie. It’s in my top five summer films right next to Midnight Madness from the early 80s. Anyway, I’m glad it’s getting some love. It deserves it. Enjoy the official details of the release below. Synopsis When it comes to love, poet Charlie MacKenzie (Mike Myers) has had his share of bad luck. But when he meets Harriet (Nancy Travis), he...[Read More]
Turtle Beach Stealth Pro Review
I’m absolutely flabbergasted at the Turtle Beach Stealth Pro headset. Most of the time, I would enjoy the comfort of a TB headset, and the beautiful delivery of the audio, and be forever annoyed by a dongle that belongs to the early 2000s. While there have been more than a few headsets that have impressed me in the TB family, they always seemed to feature some minor or major quirk that kept them f...[Read More]
