The Best Way To Play Red Dead Redemption 2 Is To Do Nothing

There are so many things to do in Red Dead Redemption 2. Even just playing the game as intended, you’ll spend well over 100 hours working your way through the story, filling compendiums, and helping out eccentric gunslingers, painters, robot makers, and potential time travelers. The best way to play the game though is to […]

Censorship Is Real, But It’s Not Happening To M&Ms

Three seemingly unrelated stories have gone viral this week. Firstly, the M&Ms were given new shoes. Secondly, a Tennessee school board banned Maus.

Sega Leaving The Arcade Business Is The End Of An Era

If You Love The Witcher, You Need To Play Thronebreaker

Not enough people have played Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales. This spin-off is a quality RPG with writing, voice acting, and tricky moral conundrums on par with The Witcher 3.

Is Monster Hunter Getting Too Easy?

Monster Hunter: World caused some division among fans when it was released in 2018. Despite being Capcom’s best-selling game of all time, a lot of Monster Hunter veterans felt like World had lost the complexity that made the series so challenging and rewarding. As a newcomer, I appreciated how streamlined and approachable Monster Hunter: World […]

Not For Broadcast Is The Best FMV Game You’ll Ever Play

It’s the second week of our indie spotlight, and it only feels right that – as a British writer who says things like “bloomin’ ‘eck”, “jolly good”, and “toot toot” all the time – that I should take a look at Not For Broadcast, the British-designed indie game that tells the story of a probably-caffeine-addled […]
