Greyhill Incident was instantly on my radar from the first time I saw it. It’s pretty public knowledge at this point that I am a sucker for a good horror game, and honestly, the whole alien aspect hasn’t been done that often, and definitely not like this. It’s the early 90s in the US, the media talks about weather balloons and conspiracy theories. But residents of the small neighborhood soon realize! THE GOVERNMENT IS LYING. The recent increase in…

Mario Vs Sonic: New 2D Chaos
Nineties warriors unite: it’s time for the battle of Sonic and Mario to rage again. For the first time in forever, new major 2D entries in both franchises will be coming to fans. And to celebrate I propose we do away with the corporate worship of modern gaming fandoms, and beat the shit out of each other in the schoolyard instead. Because look at how awesome our heroes look in the picture above. Look at the edge, the sheer cool…
Read MoreThe Metal Gear Collection is a Treasure Trove
There was a time when I was certain the newly announced Metal Gear Solid Collection would be a cash grab. I hoped I’d be wrong. Taking the original HD Collection off the shelf and just smashing it on PS5 would have been very, very easy. Even the addition of the original Metal Gear Solid felt a bit like we were getting additional value. But as part of the Nintendo Direct, Konami confirmed exactly what we would be getting. They also…
Read MoreThe Lord of the Rings: Gollum Review
When Lord of the Rings: Gollum was first announced… I had thoughts. Number one was, who asked for this? But Number two was, this actually looks kinda neat, maybe it will surprise me. Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War were decent games, perhaps this isn’t completely crazy. Well as the game officially came close to release and folks got there hands on the game (without the marketing spin), they were in fact surprised. The Lord of the Rings: Gollum…
Read MoreNew Game Boy Game Released, and I’m Lovin’ It
I sometimes complain about the lack of surprising news in the gaming industry. Well, here’s what I’m talking about. A new Game Boy Colour game has been released… and it’s been put out by McDonalds. No, this isn’t a madlib. You heard it right. The game, Grimace’s Birthday, can be played in your browser or on your phone. It even sits on a suitably retro website. Or, because this is the internet and people take seconds to do this sort…
Read MoreStarfield: And That’s Marketing
Starfield had a blowout today as part of the Xbox conference, and it’s safe to say it did its job. Opinion on the game has shifted dramatically. Not that the muted reaction to it before was ever fair. I think a nice combination of Fallout 76, Bethesda’s reputation for janky launches and general attitude to Xbox made people comfortable to knock it. And maybe those people will still turn out to be right. But before it felt like those critics…
Read MoreThe Simple Joys of Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth
The second part of the Final Fantasy 7 remake – Rebirth – got a reveal yesterday, and it was the most joyous moment of gaming I’ve had in a long time. Sometimes you get into a rut, and nothing you play seems to capture your imagination. We’ve all been there. And that might be due to busy schedules, or changing tastes, or a mild dislike of many modern games. For me personally, it’s just a bit of burnout. But I…
Read MoreSonic Superstars Announced During Summer Game Fest
A brand new Sonic game was announced today during the Summer Game Fest! Check out the trailer below, along with our thoughts on the game. Sonic Superstars was announced during the Summer Game Fest today. It was an unexpected reveal for sure. Sonic Frontiers was the most recent Sonic game and it was 3D. Just like Mario though, it looks like Sonic can’t leave its 2D gameplay behind. The sonic has a brand new 2.5D look with things interacting between…
Read MoreSteam, Dolphin and Nintendo – More Nonsense
Some of you may have heard about the issues with Steam, Nintendo and Gamecube/Wii emulator Dolphin in the last couple of weeks. It boils down to this: it ain’t happening. Dolphin was trying to get onto Steam, but Valve contacted Nintendo to check on the legality of that. Nintendo shut it down. Regardless of if they’re right or wrong, anybody who follows this stuff won’t be surprised by that move. Emulation exists in a grey area. You’re allowed to play…
