Routine Review (Xbox Series X)
Space. Horror. Puzzles. Space-horror-puzzles. SPACEHORRORPUZZLES. I think a new genre name has been invented. Routine, developed by Lunar Software and published by Raw Fury, is a survival horror game of sorts that borrows its controls from the original Resident Evil game, its scares from Dead Space, and its uncomfortable environment from Alien: Isolation. Combined, players get a game that is buil...[Read More]
Hyperkin The Competitor Controller (PC/Xbox)
Sometimes it doesn’t take a $200 SCUF controller to enjoy a gameplay session. Sometimes a $49.99 controller is just fine. Well, Hyperkin has just that controller for you with The Competitor. This $49.99 wonder features hall effect thumbsticks, impulse triggers (for that extra immersion), a programmable backend, and just enough customizable grip to make it seem like you’ve got a fancy controller. W...[Read More]

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle – Preview (Hands-off)
This past week, Digitalchumps was privy to a preview from Bethesda Studios and MachineGames Studio about their game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. While the preview was hands-off, which I’m sure will change very soon, we did get some great insight about the game’s gameplay, timeline, and how it was trying to balance what makes up a good Indiana Jones adventure. Now, what we didn’t get during ...[Read More]
Antstream Arcade Review (PC)
In a world filled with emulator-driven handhelds on Amazon.com, and endless amounts of Namco Museums since the 90s, it’s fascinating seeing those ideals collide on the PC with Antstream Arcade. The service is a cloud-based streaming service that allows you to play, save, and dive into a bevy of retro games. The service offers over 1300 games and does enough to make the experience worthwhile. Or at...[Read More]
Afterglow Wave Wired Controller Review
Finding the right PC controller can be tricky. Finding one that has comfort, style, and weight to it is generally a compromise. Some controllers have a few of those boxes checked, while others have almost none of those checked. And with the diverse nature of Steam and Epic Games when it comes to controller compatibility, there has to be a pretty darn good reason to jettison an official Xbox or Pla...[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]
Redfall Review
It has been a rough week for the folks at Arkane with their recent release of Redfall, a vampire open-world game that has a setup that would make John Carpenter smile. The game is being hailed as something that fell short of expectations, even going as far as drawing ire from Xbox head of everything Phil Spencer. And, to be quite frank, none of what is being said or felt is entirely wrong. While R...[Read More]
Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed Review
Asymmetric multiplayer games have seen a huge rise in popularity over the years. Friday the 13th: The Game, Dead by Daylight, and to a lesser degree Predator: Hunting Grounds, have all taken the world by storm with their delightfully addicting gameplay. As with those games, the genre seems to be ripe with possibilities when it comes to beloved IP. But one obvious franchise has eluded the adored 4v...[Read More]
EPOS H3PRO Hybrid Color (White) Review
Back in September, I had the chance to dig into the EPOS H3 Hybrid headset. EPOS did a great job entering the headset and earbud market with the H3, as it was reliable, clear, and comfortable. It was a step in the right direction and one that I was excited for EPOS to make. Now, the H3PRO Hybrid is here, and the headset has taken the concept that the original H3 Hybrid brought to the headset mark...[Read More]
