Super Mario Galaxy Movie Review: Critics Miss the Point…Again

I know, I know. I disappeared for a bit. Between a flood of game releases and updates that refuse to let anyone breathe, plus my son being on Spring Break, I took some time off to actually touch grass and hang out with the family. Wild concept, right? Turns out when you run your own site, you can just…not post for a week and the world keeps spinning. But then opening night hit, and my family and I went to see the new The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, and suddenly I’m back at the keyboard. Not just because of the movie, though. Because of the absolute circus happening around it.

Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor Demolisher Class Incoming!

If you’ve been waiting for Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor to shake things up in a meaningful way, congrats! It only took a fully weaponized mining vehicle to get there. The newly announced Heavy Duty Expansion is bringing the first new class to the game, and it’s not even trying to be subtle about it. This isn’t your standard “slightly different gun, slightly different stats” situation...this is a full on dwarf strapped into a Rock Dozer, flattening anything unlucky enough to exist in front of it. It’s loud, it’s funderfully excessive, and it might be exactly what this game needed. Or at least, part of what it needed.

The “Modern Audience” Never Came: 1348 Ex Voto Flops Hard

If you spent any time on gaming X/Twitter over the couple of months, you've probably seen the usual suspects like PC Gaymer and IGN hyping up 1348 Ex Voto as the next big medieval game.According to the team's marketing push, it had supposedly huge wishlist numbers, a passionate following, and a story crafted specifically for the mysterious “modern audience” that developers and journalists love to talk about.Then the game launched.Reality showed up fast and without mercy. According to our beloved charts tracked by SteamDB, the game barely managed a 427 player peak on Steam during its launch day.Again, that's four hundred. And twenty seven people. That is not a thriving medieval kingdom of players. That's probably closer to the headcount of a local bowling league or something. 1348 Ex Voto Player Numbers | SteamDB The funniest part though, in my humblest […]

Is Slay the Spire 2 Worth Playing Yet? Early Access Game Review

Same Rogue-like Addiction, New Shiny Coat of Paint Okay I’m only a little late getting around to this one since it came out on the 5th. The past few weeks have been absolute chaos if you follow new releases or Early Access updates. With horror games and updates popping up everywhere like mushrooms smashed with some T-Virus (yes, I may have Resident Evil Requiem still on the brain), something was bound to get pushed down the list. Yeah yeah, I still haven't played Poppy Playtime Chapter 5, but I still swear I’m going to play next...probably...maybe. Watch another ten games drop next week and Falcon Punch my plans to the shadow realm again. Anyhoo, I carved out some time for Slay the Spire 2 - the long awaited sequel to one of the most addictive roguelike games ever created. If you’ve played the first game […]

Resident Evil Requiem Game Review – Leon’s Back Kickin Ass

Okay, I'm not usually one to complain about this - but there has been an absolutely stupid amount of games dropping lately. Between the Monster Hunter Wilds Anniversary Update, jumping into Phasmophobia’s Tanglewood Drive rework, and finishing up my review for Fear the Timeloop (which ended up being way better than I expected btw), my schedule has been ridiculously packed with games that refuse to let me sleep like a normal human being. And of course, sitting quietly in my Steam library this entire time is Poppy Playtime Chapter 5...staring at me, menacingly like an unpaid credit card bill that I keep pretending doesn’t exist. It has been one of those weeks where every time you finish one game, two more pop up like some kind of funderfully cursed gaming hydra. Sigh...but I digress.

Phasmophobia’s Tanglewood Drive Rework Is Actually Kinda Fire

When you think of Phasmophobia, you probably think of the classic 6 Tanglewood Drive map. Not the prison. Not Sunny Meadows. Not that one campsite where your sanity evaporates in 30.2 seconds. Tanglewood. It’s the map where most of us learned what EMF even was. It’s where we first got blasted by a Revenant and screamed into the night like absolutely civilized adults. It’s been the most played map in the game for years, and until now, it was basically “Generic Suburban House Simulator 2020.” And with the latest Phasmo update...that version is gone. But honestly? I’m not even mad. You can check out the full Steam announcement here if you want the clinical breakdown straight from the Kinetic Games, but I’m here to tell you what actually matters. Sorry, but this rework looks really damn good. Overview New Hobby Room […]

Is Fear the Timeloop Worth It? Full Steam Horror Game Review

I found this game the same way I find most questionable life decisions: doomscrolling on YouTube. A random clip pops up. Dark hospital hallway. Slightly crunchy indie graphics. I think, “Oh nice, cute little horror game, probably an hour or two long. Maybe a couple of cheap jump scares for funsies.” I couldn't have known then just how wrong I was. A Sheriff, a Bullet, and 15 Minutes to Live Fear the Timeloop drops you into the boots of Sheriff Cooper, who wakes up alone in a hospital with a funderful gunshot wound that will absolutely kill him within the next 15 minutes if left untreated. No friendly nurse. No exposition dump. No tutorial NPC asshat explaining which button opens a door. Just you. A ticking clock. And a bunch of blood loss. Health Management | Fear the Timeloop | […]

Gachiakuta Review: The Latest Trash Anime in 2026?

I went into Gachiakuta fully prepared to roll my eyes. The marketing screamed edgy. The visuals looked like someone handed Temu Hot Topic a Crunchyroll budget. And the premise felt suspiciously close to “loud underdog boy gets screwed over by society and punches his way back up,” which is basically the Shonen Starter Pack at this point. And yet…here we are. Because somewhere between the garbage monsters, graffiti-infused fight scenes, and Rudo screaming about injustice like a feral raccoon with a grudge - this show kind of won me over. Is it revolutionary? Not even a little. Is it funderful? Honestly, I was surprised how much I liked it. Let’s sift through the trash pile and get down to the heart of Gachiakuta. Gachiakuta Premise: Eat the Rich, Fall Into the Dumpster At its core, Gachiakuta follows Asta Rudo, a kid […]

A Tale of Two Game Demos: When Wishlists Don’t Match Reality

It was the best of games. It was the worst of games. This is a tale of two demos that launched the same week - both were holding onto impressive wishlist numbers. Both grabbed some headlines. Both had some buzz. Only one had players. In one corner you have 1348 Ex Voto, a medieval adventure that has you parading around Italy as a lesbian knight in a bowl cut, proudly announcing that it had crossed 100,000 wishlists on Steam before launch. A six-figure milestone. Impressive. Respectable. Very screenshot-worthy, right? In the other corner - you have Windrose, a pirate survival game that quietly blew past 1,000,000 wishlists and then proceeded to pull an overwhelming 22,000 concurrent players into its demo. Meanwhile, Ex Voto peaked at 122. Original Image: 1348 Ex Voto | X That's not a typo by the way...one […]

The Game Awards: Highguard’s Tencent Reveal Sparked Backlash

Alright. Let’s talk about the mess. For years, Geoff Keighley has positioned The Game Awards as gaming’s big night. The Oscars, but with fewer tuxedos and more world premieres. Sometimes it works. Sometimes we get genuinely cool announcements. And sometimes we get whatever just happened with Highguard. If you’ve been anywhere near Twitter, Reddit, or YouTube lately, you already know the vibe...it's not good. Let’s break this down before we put on the tinfoil hat. The Highguard Reveal That Didn’t Land Highguard was positioned as the final reveal of the show. That slot is sacred territory. Historically, it’s where something massive lives. The kind of reveal that makes chat explode and YouTube clips hit a million views overnight. Instead, viewers got what seemed like a half-assed hero shooter. Not an unplayable disaster. Not a scam. Just a fairly bleh-looking, free-to-play […]
