All reviewsDoom: The Dark Ages2025
3 out of 5 starsIn 1996, Marvel released a promotional comic based on the 1993 video game Doom. In the comic, the main protagonist, ‘Doom Guy,’ in a fit of barely controlled rage, claims he wants to ‘rip and tear’ a Cyberdemon’s huge guts. This comic was often mocked and ridiculed in the Doom community as completely ridiculous… until Doom (2016) was released, where ‘rip and tear’ was introduced as the tagline for the whole series.…
The Last of Us Part II2020
3 out of 5 starsThere were several parts of The Last of Us Part II where I thought that this had to be the end, right? Storylines were resolved, characters were redeemed, revenge had been enacted, and the story appeared to have nothing more to say. However, it just kept going. Another cutscene, another hour of rummaging through an abandoned building, another combat scenario requiring a half dozen resets. Whatever it was, it just…
Fallout 76
2 out of 5 starsBefore I start I just wanted to get one thing straight first: Fallout 76 is not a Fallout game, at least not a traditional Fallout game. Sure it's got all the aesthetics of Fallout game with the Vault-Boy, Super Mutants, and Pipe Revolvers. It has much of the same mechanics as Bethesda era Fallout games with perks, SPECIAL stats, and VATS. But it is not a Fallout game, it is a survival game with a Fallout skin. It…
Firewatch2016
2 out of 5 starsHave you ever played a game where you tried to look into a game to find something more only to find that nothing is there? I'm not talking about the story or characters as these factors can have multiple interpretations. I'm talking about trying to find more function to what's presented to you initially. This is the core problem with Firewatch. A game that's presents you with mechanics and new ways to interact with…

All articlesEA Made My Dream Skate Game, But You Will Probably Hate It
Sep 1, 2025
I’m rolling down the streets of San Vansterdam doing pop-shuvits and nosegrinding benches when I stumble across one of the larger skate parks in the area. It has numerous ramps, rails and even a loop-de-loo, the top of which is missing. However, what catches my eye isn’t any of that. It is a group of about 6 to 7 other players leaping off a nearby building rooftop and cavemaning into a ramp, ro...
My Favoruite Non-Gaming Things of 2023-ish
Jan 21, 2024
Inspired by the recent Bombcast, where the crew did... the exact thing I'm doing now, I will be going through my favourite non-gaming-related things of 2023. This is to prove to the world that I am a well-rounded person and not a total freak who does nothing but play video games for the majority of the time. Now, these are not in order, so let's get started. Smeg Automatic Coffee Machine Do you...
Game of the Year 2023 and the 2nd Annual Willies Awards
Nov 25, 2023
It was the best year for video games; it was the worst year for video games. The year 2023 will be remembered with joyful glee or utter misery, depending on which side of the video game you are on. Game developers probably had the worst year I’ve ever seen. Studio closures, layoffs, excessive crunch, and that’s on top of the other bullshit they usually have to deal with. Conversely, video game...
Game of the Year 2022 and The Willies Awards!
Dec 18, 2022
This year has been a bit of a disappointing year. Between the Series X and PS5 still being challenging to find and multiple big games being delayed, 2022 seemed like the kind of the year that was kind of... meh? A few big games were released this year, but that’s it: only a few big games. In other years it’s banger after banger, but throughout most of the year, we did not see a lot of triple-A...
Elementary Students and Video Games: What It’s Like Being Asked If You Play Among Us 2 To 3 Times A Day
Nov 13, 2020
I’ve been attending university to become a teacher for quite a while now. I remember starting back in 2017 being completely overwhelmed and have been busting my butt since doing an enormous amount of theory. Lots of reports on child development, theorists, higher-level calculus and a never-ending demand for lesson plans. So many lesson plans. But five weeks ago, I got to do my very first practi...
