Double Dragon Revive Released: October 22nd, 2025 Developer:   Yuke's Publisher:   Arc System Works Systems:   PC, PS5, Switch/Switch 2 (reviewed), Xbox Series X/S Double Dragon Revive doesn’t play as bad as it looks, but that’s not saying much because it looks so utterly  fucking shit. Also, it doesn't play that much better. While the beat ‘em up genre has enjoyed some great modern entries including Absolum, Shredder’s Revenge and Streets of Rage 4, it’s sad to see a staple

Painkiller Released: October 21st, 2025 Developer:   Anshar Studios Publisher:   3D Realms Systems:   PC, PS5 (reviewed), Xbox Series X/S If you want a big thick shooter that’s hard enough to satisfy and simple enough for anyone to get their hands on, few are as much of a pleasure to play with as Painkiller.

I’ve been hooked on this thing a major amount, its components complementing each other in such a way as to utterly drag me into i

Pokémon Legends: Z-A Released: October 16th, 2025 Developer:   Game Freak Publisher:   Nintendo, The Pokémon Company Systems:   Switch, Switch 2 (both reviewed) Pokémon Legends: Z-A has kicked up some online discussion about whether the series should have voice acting by now, and I think it’s a fair question - not necessarily because voice acting in and of itself  is the issue, but because the lack of it is a symptom of a far bigger problem. It’s a problem that’s been going o

Ghost of Yotei Released: October 2nd, 2025 Developer:   Sucker Punch Productions Publisher:   Sony Systems:   PS5 I love  a good revenge flick. From I Saw the Devil to Dave Benson Phillips’ seminal Get Your Own Back, tales of retribution are guaranteed to get my attention. They come in many different flavors, but my favorite is undoubtedly the kind where a gang of bad bastards have done something terrible and a survivor returns to cross their names, one by one, off a list.
