Super Arcade Football Review

Welcome to my review of Super Arcade Football. It is self-published and developed by OutOfTheBit Limited (Super Arcade Racing, Wild Baffo). Super Arcade Football is available now on PC, Apple iOS, and the Google Play Store for Android. It is a retro-inspired football game that pays homages to the classic Sensible Soccer. Super Arcade Football Smashes It Into The Back Of The Net! Will Super Arcade Football win the league? Or will it be relegated to the bottom of the pile? Continue reading to find out. Check out my previous review here where I played the long-awaited King's Bounty II. Gameplay So straight off the bat (or ball?), we are introduced to our main character in the game who is coincidentally named Martin. That is the default name of our protagonist and can not be changed. I jus...

Guts ‘N Goals Review

I say that as you do not, I repeat do not use your feet all that much. You are probably wondering, well how is even a football title? Well read on and I will explain everything to you. Always Bring Your Bat To Game Day In Guts 'N Goals! This isn't my usual pick-up, I usually stay far away from football titles. I won't lie, it is because I am awful at them.

Golf Club: Wasteland Review

Post-apocalyptic golf sim Golf Club: Wasteland comes from developer Demagog Studio and publisher Untold Tales. I first became aware of this game through being in the Untold Tales Discord server following reviewing Beautiful Desolation (review here). From then I kept my eye on it and even had a question answered in a Q&A with the developers, which you can find on the Untold Tales YouTube page. The clean and low-detail aesthetic of the game grabbed my attention right from the unveil and can't wait to jet-pack my way around the golf course. Golf Club: Wasteland - Fancy a back 9 on the 3rd rock? If I was to take the Earth and repurpose it, post-apocalypse, for the ultra-wealthy, I'd have settled on a hunting reserve. What could you imagine the husk of our planet being used for when it is...

Top 5 Rocket League Collaborations

Rocket League is one of those games that people love to hate, but also hate to love. Previously known by the more catchy title Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars. It is a title that most people have in their library these days. Some gamers will pick it up have a few games and put it down due to the game mechanics. Some gamers are so competitive (on the non-competitive modes might I add) that the games become saltier than the sea. However! Rocket League also has the gamers in between that love a bit of competitive action, however, they also play it to have fun. Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars! I was really late to the Rocket League game, it was just something I never picked up. Always saw other gamers on it having fun but I never jumped the gun. However, aroun...

Olympic Games Tokyo 2020: The Official Video Game Review

We're used to games being released a year before their namesake. For example, FIFA 21 releasing in 2020, but rarely is it the other way around. Well, thanks to a worldwide pandemic this is exactly what has happened, in a way. The event still hasn't happened yet but is still referred to as the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, or as it is officially known, the Games of the XXXII Olympiad. Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 - Going For Gold The game was originally released in Japan, for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch in 2019. But because of this pandemic, it never made its way to western shores...until now. Now things have calmed down a little bit, Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 has since been released to the rest of the world on June 22nd, 2021 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, and Stadia. ...

F1 2021 Review

There is a change in the air in the world of Formula One. Last season was a bit of a strange one. At one point we didn't know if it was going to go ahead at all. But thankfully it did and Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes were dominant once again. So with the 2021 season underway, it is shaping up to be a very good one with Max Verstappen challenging Lewis for the championship. The F1 2021 season is going to be one to remember, that's for sure. Why am I telling you all this? Because this real-life season is entirely relevant to the game as you will find out later. "How you can crash into a wall without it being there in the first place is beyond me!" - Murray Walker F1 for me is what FIFA is to every Dave in the country. I must have the new game every year and I am never disappointed. As u...
