There are some games that hit the zeitgeist so hard that it’s hard not to see them mentioned everywhere. 1000xResist is one of those games. I knew the name long before I knew anything else about it, and the message was clear: you have to play this game. Mostly a visual novel, it tells the story of scandal and betrayal within what is basically a religious cult, and the aftermath of exposing it. It asks difficult questions and often handles…

When I was told that Sonic Generations was the weakest part of this package, I let out an audible sigh. SEGA remasters are always met with these kinds of comments. I still feel the reactions to the Shenmue set. And yet the truth is Sonic X Shadow Generations really does prove that the best of the Blue Blue is ahead of him… and it took a game starring Shadow to prove it. Sonic Frontiers was brilliant, especially after all the…

Funko Fusion is a unique gaming experience that brings together iconic characters from various franchises into a single, open-world adventure. As a fan of both Funko Pop! collectibles and video games, I was eager to dive into this title, but my experience was somewhat mixed. The core mechanics are very similar to Lego games, which makes sense because much of the team had previously worked on some of the Lego titles, however it’s not executed nearly as well. The Good:…

Star Wars Outlaws excels in its presentation. The game’s environments are beautifully rendered, capturing the iconic aesthetics of the Star Wars galaxy. From the bustling cityscapes of Mirogana to the desolate landscapes of Tosche Station, each location feels distinct and immersive. The vibrant color palette and attention to detail create a truly atmospheric experience. While the open-world exploration is enjoyable, the gameplay mechanics feel somewhat generic. Combat encounters, while visually impressive, lack the depth and variety that would ...
