We’ve seen a pretty big shake-up in the first-person shooter realm within the last few years — the biggest changes seen in a long time. After over a decade of beige-colored military shooters following in the footsteps of 2007’s Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the term ‘Boomer Shooter’ has now been coined to represent […]

Dashing through hell with a complete chorus of guitars and hard vocals while destroying everything that stands in your way, what’s not to love? This was the first thought I had when I launched the new game from The Outsiders, an indie game company formed in Stockholm, Sweden, way back in 2015 and was acquired

If you were tuned in to the cultural zeitgeist in the early 2010s and beyond, you’ll know that the ‘battle royale to the death’ concept has pretty much been covered to death. This has been done to varying degrees of success, with the best example being the critically acclaimed Hunger Games series, and the more

While gaming is a much more accepted pastime in this technologically dominated age we live in, that was not always the case, and gaming along with various other forms of media was often vilified by suburban mothers, good Christian families, and opinionated old-timers alike. You need only look back through the annals of recent history

The Soulslike subgenre of video games is a unique and deadly subgenre that’s popped up in recent years. Several characteristics define a game as Soulslike, characteristics that are hallmarks of the subgenre. Such as punishing, brutal, almost masochistic combat, a story that makes little to no sense at the best of times, and a macabre,

I love arena shooters. Whether we’re tearing our foes limb from limb or hurling down corridors like a child on a runaway shopping cart, arena shooters fulfill our primal urges for high-octane violence and SPEED! Games like DOOM, ULTRAKILL, and Dusk have all catered to our violent whims and inspired a vast collection of spinoffs

For me, a game’s story, especially that of an RPG (or MMORPG), comes before all else. The art, music, and gameplay can be solid, but if the narrative doesn’t capture me within the first hour, chances are I will give this indie game a pass. This is primarily due to my love of creative writing

So, a little background on me to showcase my credentials and prove I am the ideal candidate for this Stray PS5 review. I have five little kitties roaming around the room as we speak.
