The Last of Us 2, is it Worth it?

The Last Of Us was a Playstation 3 swansong, released some six months before the Playstation 4. It garnered rave reviews and was quickly re-released on the newer console. Seven years later and we have a sequel arriving in a similar set of circumstances. Worth the wait? TLOU2 picks up four years after the original,…

Control – Photo Tour

I recently picked up Control during the Epic Sale, it’s been a game I’ve had my eye on for a while, snaking into my field of view via the various architecture blogs, podcasts, and videos I occasionally visit.

The way I’ve been describing it to friends is “A gateway drug to get kids from roblox into CS:GO”, and you’d be forgiven for passing over it’s Minecraft style aesthetics as just some throwaway…

A Very Level Headed Review of Half Life: Alyx

It’s crazy it’s taken a game like this so long to come out on VR (or at least of this calibre). A linear single player corridor shooter with well thought out puzzle elements and great setpiece shootouts. For pancake mode PC that’s been par for the course since Half Life 1 came out roughly one…
