I reviewed Dune: Awakening for @gameinformer.com! Honestly, I had a blast playing it. The game does a lot of things right and hits the mark where it matters most when telling a Dune story! If you have a moment to spare, check it out! gameinformer.com/review/dune-...

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...

I’ve felt weird talking about it cuz I’m just a freelancer, I’ve written various versions of this post before deleting But I’ve also been affected by the commerce layoffs at GameSpot and, as always, could use more work. I still have some time for appts during SDCC, and for reviews, previews etc.

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.
