The Company of Heroes Collection Nintendo Switch Review
As someone who really go into video games between the mid ’90s to late-00s, I’m a huge fan of the recent flurry of console-friendly ports of classic PC titles. Early 3D action-adventures, point-and-click classics, and real-time-strategy games – with older…

The Outer Worlds: Spacers Choice Edition Xbox Series Review
A few months and several patches from now, The Outer Worlds: Spacers Choice Edition might end up the definitive way to play Obsidian’s excellent, if traditional RPG – even if some of the divisive visual changes remain. This outsourced “remastering”…
