ADVENTURE TIME – DISTANT LANDS [Obsidian Review]: Be My Monster.

Adventure Time: Distant Lands is this wonderful epilogue to what Adventure Time means to its fans after ten gloriously algebraic seasons. HBO Max revived Adventure Time for the Distant Lands miniseries that is only four episodes total with each episode running 45 minutes each. Obsidian expands on the relationship between Marceline and Princess Bubblegum. They’re …

JUGGERNAUT / TASKMASTER [Marvel Comics Reviews]: Sunday Villainy.

I cannot state enough how much fun this book is. Part of the appeal is that it’s not the typical big two reset button back to villainy. Following the course from mid-2000s Uncanny X-Men and even 2010s Thunderbolts, Juggernaut is on a road to redemption. In this issue, Marko stands trial for the financial damages …

SACKBOY – A BIG ADVENTURE [Review]: Puppet Master.

Lord knows the world needs heroes. Sackboy.. is that hero.

I never played Yoshi's Woolly or Crafted World's so I can't exactly compare the two, but this Big Adventure looks downright splendid …

MARVEL’S SPIDER-MAN – MILES MORALES [Review]: We Fly High.

When it comes to PlayStation 5 launch titles, I was surprised to see a new Spider-Man game was coming this quick. It made perfect sense when it was discussed to be a standalone DLC in much the same way "Lost Legacy" was for Uncharted, or "First Light" was for Infamous: Second Son. This time we‘re …

NEED FOR SPEED – HOT PURSUIT REMASTERED [Review]: Vroom-Vroom.

EA decided to bring back Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit, a game I loved playing on my Xbox 360 back in 2010. I eagerly jumped back into the luxurious supercars to give them another spin and burn some rubber. So what’s exactly new with this remaster? Short answer, not much really. It is more or …

ASTRO’S PLAYROOM [Review]: Making DualSense Of The New PS5 Controller.

The next generations of consoles are here, and now we can fully say “current gen”. I’m super excited! This level of excitement brought me to exploring everything the PlayStation 5 had to offer, including a little gem called Astro’s Playroom. What seems essentially be a short tech demo for the DualSense controller, is actually an …
