Consoles are often defined by the standout titles that are released over their lifespan. We all know about Mario and Zelda, but there was something else that stood out for me on the Nintendo 64: A certain dinosaur-hunting series known as Turok. The first two titles have seen rereleases and remasterers, but Turok 3: Shadow […]

Chasm: The Rift – Review
Chasm: The Rift was a first-person shooter released in 1997. This was one year after the genre re-defining Quake and a year before another ‘little-known’ title called Half-Life.

Dusk – Review | Lightning in a Bottle
One of the best things to come out of the last decade-or-so is the resurgence of the tongue-in-cheekily named Boomer Shooter. Originally coined by Millenials to describe other Millenials, these shooters draw their power from ‘90s classics like DOOM, Quake, Blood, and Duke Nukem 3D. Dusk brings modern game design to a classic formula, and squirts […]
