Xbox Series X|S is Apparently Trailing Xbox 360 in Sales

Xbox has been in kind of a weird place ever since the days of the Xbox 360 came to a close. Despite being the undisputed king of the console market for the entire lifespan of the Xbox 360, Microsoft was never really able to to keep the momentum going thanks to one debacle or another….

In Defense of Security Breach

If you’ve been following the Five Nights at Freddy’s fandom in recent years, you’ll be more than familiar with a rather divisive entry in the series called Security Breach.  Developed by Steel Wool Studios, this game suffered from multiple delays before its eventual release in December of 2021.  And even then, it was definitely not…

Games You Can’t Revisit

Since I’m still kind of in that lull of figuring out what to play next, I’ve been kinda picking through my library trying to see if there’s something I’d like to replay. I’d settled on Super Paper Mario previously, but my Wiimote finally died, so I gotta go for something else until I can get…

Do I Really Want to Play This?”

Late last week, after putting somewhere are around 40 hours into it, I finished the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC for Elden Ring.

But, now it’s over and I’m once again…

The Talos Principle 2 First Impressions

When Devolver Digital announced new DLC for The Talos Principle 2 at its showcase during Game Fest weekend, I immediately took notice. Not only did it look fantastic, but also it reminded me that I needed to, y’know, actually play the actual game.  I had a fantastic time with the original game, tackling its “philosophical”…
