I haven't seen all of Tarantino's films, but among the ones I have seen are The Hateful Eight and Django Unchained. Yet if you were to ask me what Tarantino's best western is, I might be more compelled to tell you that it's Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. The film follows actor Rick Dalton... Continue Reading →
Air Supremacy is actually a scenario that comes with the Horn of the Abyss mod. I wasn't planning on covering these unofficial scenarios in this series of completing the game but, after playing the map coop for about six hours, it seemed amiss not to cover it here. I played this map multiplayer with my... Continue Reading →
A little while ago I reviewed Robocop and started the review with a little joke about how much has already been said about it and how hard it was for me to find something new to add, or how to write stuff you might have read elsewhere in a way that only I could. Fight... Continue Reading →

You ever get bored and watch fight scenes from movies on YouTube? I don't know if it's just a me thing, but that's something I sometimes do. I might watch Captain America fight the Winter Soldier for 3 minutes, or James Bond punch Jaws in the chin and shake his fist in pain. Godzilla x... Continue Reading →
Shadows of Doubt is a procedurally generated detective game where you play as a retired detective in a randomised city layout where you can take police jobs, illegal theft and assault jobs, and solve randomly generated murders. The setting is the late 20th century where the industrial revolution never really stopped, resulting in global warming... Continue Reading →
