Star Wars Squadrons – Pew Pew Pew

Within gaming, Star Wars titles seem to be extremely popular with some but not others. It is highly possible they could be Trekkies but there really is a mixed bag. As a big Star Wars fan myself, I can't help myself. It was exactly the same with Battlefront, I had to get my hands on a copy. Star Wars Squadrons is the latest title to be released by EA, and unlike Battlefront this time you are solely in crafts/ships (whatever you like to call them) in a fast-paced aerial battle. Star Wars Squadrons Is This The Game You Are Looking For? Having been excited for this release for a while it is finally here. Let's find out how I got on and don't forget you can always catch up with us on social media. If you have already had some hands-on time with Star Wars Squadrons do let us know your thought...

FIFA 21 – Well..Kind Of

Another year and another FIFA review over on Thumb Culture, this time we are looking at FIFA 21...obviously. So what does this years iteration bring to the game that meant the previous years just felt empty and stale? Well in all honesty not a lot. Jeez this is going to be a hard review to write. Gameplay FIFA 21 returns with the standard kind of thing you would expect from a football video game, updated team line ups, slightly improved graphics, a couple of new additions to old standing modes. Lets touch on them briefly. Pro Clubs (the game mode I tend to play most) has been given a small overhaul, you can now create tactics for the different defensive and attacking options. This is great if it wasn't for the sometimes god awful AI team mates that you play along side. The game...

Tank Mechanic Simulator – Renovating History

I have been lucky in my life to play all manner of sims, some have been great and others have been atrocious. Having recently reviewed car mechanic simulator, a game that seemingly gave you a basic understanding of where parts are on a car, but at the same time leaving out the swearing and grunt work behind that "five-minute" job, I was intrigued to take a look at Polish devs DeGenerals S.A fantastically titled Tank Mechanic Simulator. Slathered in world war 2 wartime history, was I going to regress into Uncle Albert of Only Fools and Horses fame as I tell everyone about my tank restoration exploits or would I end up walking away from the rusty mess? Gameplay The back story to Tank Mechanic Simulator is that you are a museum owner/tank restorer, having taken over from your late fat...

Space Crew – Bomber Crew Revamped

The number of simulator games on the market these days is incredible, but a lot of them aren't really that challenging. Space Crew is another level and if you take your eyes off the ship of moments, there is a chance you end up with an inferno on your hands. Trust me, I have had enough of these now to safely say STAY AWAY from them. The team over at Curve Digital bring you this extremely tactical space crew/ship simulator, which is very much like their older classic Bomber Crew. Just in space this time and not on board an aircraft. So how did I fair? And will I be taking my career further? Keep on reading to find out. Gameplay Starting the game on with a tutorial mode is the correct way to develop a sim game, otherwise, you run the risk of been stuck in your own little world without a cl...

Gameplay Ride 4 sees you select from any one of 30 tracks and roads as well as pick out your insanely engineered choice of over 230 licensed two-wheeled rockets to ride on.

Ride 4 features a whole host of game modes to keep you entertained, from career, race, time attack and endurance to online multiplayer. I will say that at the time of writing that the multiplayer feature was not currently active as the game had not been released yet. Overall the menu is easy to navigate and you c...

Project Cars 3 – Not So SIMple

Project Cars, a name synonymous with simulation racers in the past. However, times are a-changing and with Project Cars 3 we have a bit of a SHIFT in the focus that Slightly Mad Studios brought to the track. This is now, in my opinion, a tremendous arcade-style racing game. Read on to find out more! Gameplay So you picked up Project Cars 3 expecting it to be a pure simulation racer, expecting it to be suited to your steering wheel, expecting a lot! Now I can imagine that you might be disappointed as it is neither a sim racer anymore, nor is it suited to be used on your steering wheel. In my opinion that isn't a bad thing in the slightest, and let me tell you why. Project Cars 3, might be the most fun I have had racing around a track in a long time. There I said it! Whilst most ...
