Destiny 2 Update – Onslaught and Pantheon

Guardian Onslaughts I have been playing the new game mode Onslaught in Destiny 2 and boy do I have a lot to say about this game mode. I truly believe this game mode is a godsend to help bring life into the game. A well-placed tower defense that has us fight either a group of Fallen or Hive that I have to say...are downright evil! Especially the Hive with their Wizards, Shriekers and Ogres can all go suck on lemons for their broken ways. But, I'll talk more about this later and talk about the game mode a bit more. There are a lot of things that people figure out when dealing with the game mode, especially with the batteries. The batteries have more use than to help recharge the shield for the ADU. You can repair the defense you have. That being the decoys, turrets and the trip mines. Th...

Published by 3D Realms and created at Slipgate Ironworks™ comes a new retro-shooter called Phantom Fury. The game was released for Steam on April 24th, for £20.49, with a Digital Artbook also available for purchase at £2.49.

Jack Holmes: Master of Puppets – PS5 Review

Let's dive into a new horror game coming to PlayStation 5, called Jack Holmes: Master of Puppets. This new survival horror is already out on Steam but will be arriving on PS5 on May 2nd. I couldn't tell you the price but from checking Steam, I'd be guessing either £9.99 or £11.99.  Who's really pulling the strings here? We step into the shoes of the titular Jack Holmes, He gets a letter from his Aunt. The letter asks him to investigate the disappearance of a man named Frederick B. Since Jack hasn't had a job for a while he accepts it and heads out, but as we know with any horror he gets more than he bargained for.  Gameplay The game itself doesn’t have a lot in the ways of gameplay mechanics. You will be walking through various levels fending off against various monsters. The game ...

Pneumata – PC Preview

I got a chance to check out an early preview of the game Pneumata. The game is a survival horror FPS and was developed by Deadbolt Interactive and published by Perp Games. The game should be released sometime this year, but I don't have the specifics or pricing. You can add Pneumata to your wishlist like I have if you're interested. The hell is going on! Gameplay The segment I got to play for Pneumata had me exploring a detention centre. While investigating, I came across some plans to find explosives and use them to reach the medical wing. The gameplay is similar to later versions of the Resident Evil games, primarily the items and inventory. Your inventory has limited space and goes buy a grid system. I'm not sure if the player will be able to expand their storage, but you can offlo...

Breachers – PSVR2 Review

Originally released on the Meta Quest 2 on the 13th of April 2023, Breachers is a tactical multiplayer shooter that has now found its way onto the PSVR2. It is available now on Quest platforms and PlayStation 5. Breaching onto the PSVR2 The tactical “Rainbow Six Siege” style VR shooter has had a rough time on the PSVR2 with titles like Firewall: Ultra being incredibly disappointing, eventually leading to the closure of the development studio. Could this all change with developer Triangle Factory and their new title? Gameplay To start with the basics, rounds will start out in the buy menu, where on the attacking side you can choose your weapons, gadgets, and entrance point. for defense, you’ll also choose weapons, and gadgets to set traps for the attackers. After that the round b...

SPRAWL – PC Review

SPRAWL is a retro-style hardcore FPS available now on Steam and the Epic Games store. It was developed by MAETH and published by Rogue Games, Inc (Dust & Neon, Homebody). If you're looking for a fast-paced parkour shooter with bullet-time and a variety of weaponry, this may be the next one for you. DOOM + Ghostrunner = SPRAWL I'll be the first to admit that I'm not very good at parkour games such as Ghostrunner or Mirror's Edge. I can do simple jumping puzzles in most games. But running and gunning while traversing walls is completely beyond my ability most of the time! I wasn't sure how things were going to play out for me in SPRAWL. Thankfully after lowering the difficulty (only from Normal to Easy) I was able to get more of a handle on the mechanics without dying repeatedly. What ...
