Silent Hill: Townfall is a challenging and terrifying game about wrestling with the weight of our decisions. The move to 1st person works well and the CRTV mechanics are implemented in really smart ways, but stealth can be frustrating at times. My full review: templeofgeek.com/silent-hill-...

I reviewed Silent Hill: Townfall by Screen Burn! It’s an excellent horror experience with an absolutely insane attention to detail with the environments and atmosphere. Here is my review for @techraptor.net @annapurna.com @konamina.bsky.social techraptor.net/gaming/revie...

Like #FireEmblem: Three Houses, I'm going to assume Fortune's Weave is much more than meets the eye. The coliseum seems to be a focus, but I'm also thinking that's just the beginning like the school phase in 3H. I could just be repeating what everyone else is guessing, but I've been out of town!

Look ma, I’m an officially published person now! 🥳 Control Resonant was one of the best demos I played at Summer Game Fest. It never felt like Control 2. It feels like its own game, replacing third person shooting with close combat melee action. I loved my time with it.

I played Star Fox Zero with a friend yesterday and I'm convinced that it's actually quite good. You just have to play it on co-op to actually have fun. It removes the pain of having to use gyro on the pad whilst also piloting on the big screen. It's about as fun as I've had with Star Fox 64!
