Review: Technos Collection 1 (Evercade Cartridge 10)
Though most Evercade cartridge compilations have enough variety – and quality – in the games they include that there’s almost certainly something for everyone, the Technos Collection 1 is the […]
Review: Monster Jam: Steel Titans 2
Have you ever seen the Monster Jam trucks in action? Whether it’s racing, smashing the crap out of stuff in an enormous arena or showing off genuinely impressive stunts, seeing […]
The Music of Far Cry 6: An Interview with Pedro Bromfman
“I’ve been into music since I was a little kid; my mom was really into music. She always said that she wanted to be a singer, but it was a […]
Review: Far Cry 3: Classic Edition
UbiSoft’s open world formula – with the most familiar and overused elements being towers revealing environments strewn with various collectables, represented by bewildering arrays of icons on map screens – […]
My Favourite Video Game of 2020
I picked up my Xbox One X in late 2019, having sat out Microsoft’s console for much of the generation thanks to its absolutely disastrous launch reveal and all of […]
Board Game Review: Minecraft: Builders & Biomes

Review: Destroy All Humans! (2020)
When the original Destroy All Humans! was released way back in 2005, it was a real breath of fresh air.

Game Pass Adventures
It’s time for another one of my semi-regular looks at what’s become an absolutely essential service for me – Xbox Game Pass. I know it’s something I go on about […]
It Came From The Bargain Bin: 24 – Mercenaries 2: World in Flames
Version Played: Xbox 360 Current CEX Price: £1 The first Mercenaries game was released in 2005 on the Playstation 2 and Xbox; it was a ton of chaotic fun, with what was – at the time – a massive sandbox environment and lots of ways to cause destruction on a big scale, limited only by the technology available. Developed by […]

It Came From The Bargain Bin: 16 – James Cameron’s Avatar: The Game
