So, it just dawned on me that I never posted this review here. Muh bad.

The review itself got a little bit delayed - had to wait until I'd finished recording the playthrough for the channel - which meant I needed to wait for those HDMI cables to come in, which took a little while.

Darksiders Genesis is a new but familiar take on the series - but does it work out well?

Gameplay Video Story

Darksiders as a whole has a fairly interesting story – if a bit obvious and predictable. It’s not just a battle between Heaven and Hell/Good versus Evil. It’s a plot – a scheme – someone (Or something) has brought about the apocalypse early for reasons that don’t really start to become clear until a bit later on in the series. All is not as it seems on the surface level.

[Top 5 (Plus 5)] Favorite Games of the Decade [2010-2019]

FOREWORD:

I wanted to do a “Favorite Games of 2019” list this year – but I didn’t get to play enough games to make doing that feasible. I played a decent amount of games this year – but a few weren’t super enjoyable for me, and a few I just plain haven’t spent enough time with to say whether I like them or not.

So, I figured, in lieu of that – how about looking back at the last 10 years in games…

So, I’m aware that this review for Wreckfest is a fair bit late. I’d wanted to get it done sooner – but there was about a month where I wasn’t able to get any work done. Right after receiving the game (Thanks Chris!), I started the process of getting a new PC (F I N A L L Y!)

Unfortunately, things didn’t go smoothly –…

17 years of wishing. After the massive success of the original Resident Evil Remake, does this new take on the classic RE2 hold the same weight?

Gameplay Video Story

It’s Resident Evil 2. Not too much has really changed in the plot. It’s not a 1-to-1 retelling, but it’s extremely close in narrative.

Taking place roughly 2 months after the events of the original Resident Evil, the zombie outbreak has hit Raccoon City and thing have gone bad, quickly. Rookie cop with the Raccoon Police Department is travelling to the RPD station, but…

First, let me give a big thank you to Ryan Blanchard (@ThatRyanB) of Evolve PR for the code. Second, this is likely going to be a shorter review than you usually see from me. This isn’t exactly a massive game.

Gameplay Video Story

Surprising, I know, but yes – there is actually a story here. There’s no voice acting – which is honestly a little disappointing, as the voices in the trailerwere…

Look. I don’t know why I’m doing this.

Last Action Hero: The Game has been the bane of my existence since I was 7 years old. I have tried, for years now, to review it – but have never been able to get more than a couple of hours into it before wanting to chuck the cartridge (Or, in this case, ROM) off the nearest cliff or into the nearest river.

But I finally did it.

Big thanks/shoutout to Jesse Radonski (formerly) of Evolve PR for the code – I’ve honestly been looking forward to this one quite a bit, and am glad to have gotten a chance to play it!

Gameplay Video Story

It’s easy to make comparisons to the Soulsseries with this game – even though it honestly isn’t that similar overall. However, if there’s one place where the comparison is just – it’s in…

Red Faction Guerrilla: Re-Mars-Tered

I want to first preface this review by thanking Bryden Keks and THQ Nordic with providing me with a code for the game to review!

I’d also like to make it clear that this is less of a full on review of Red Faction: Guerrilla, and more of a review of the quality of the remastering by Kaiko Games. Not to say I won’t touch on the quality of the game itself – it just isn’t the focus here.

Comparison…

Meant to get this uploaded yesterday, but editing took a bit longer due to a storm hitting here.

Had to stop recording earlier than I wanted as well for the same reason.

Anyway - a bit of gameplay from the closed beta that's going on for The Crew 2.

I'm enjoying my time so far. I like that it feels more like a racing game. While I loved the first game, it was always digging at the back of my mind that it felt more like an entry into the DRIVER series than a stand-alone racing title.

You always felt like more of an errand boy than you did the leader of a racing crew/gang.

So, been a little while since my last review - which was Milestone Games’ GRAVEL, by the way.

Been playing this since before it came out a week ago (Thanks Carly & Evolve PR!) and honestly, I’ve had a blast.

Just recently finished up the playthrough that I was recording for the YouTube channel - you can see that playlist right here - so I went ahead and finished up my review that I’d also been writing as I played.
