Close to the Sun (Console Review)
Since it is the spooky season of Halloween it is only fitting that I try out games that fir the theme of this time of the year.

5 Video Games To Get Excited For In 2018
2017 may have been a shit year for politics and world affairs, but at least we had some kick ass video games to play while the world around us was going to hell, let it never be said that I can’t find the silver lining in the ever-looming apocalypse. But can 2018 deliver the same level of excellence or would we all be better off with Trump hitting the button a few months early, so we don’t have t...[Read More]
