Everspace 2 (Prototype Build) – First Impressions
Everspace 2 is currently in a prototype phase on Steam and I was fortunate enough to get a very early sneak peek into the game and take it for a test spin. The original Everspace came out in 2017 and met with very positive rev...
Wasteland 3 (Beta) – First Impressions
I recall when Wasteland 2 came out in 2014, it was surrounded by the hype of being the Fallout sequel that we deserved, but never got. I had never had the pleasure of playing the original Wasteland back in the ‘80’s, but I did ...
Hot Brass (Alpha) – First Impressions

WildStar PVP – Hands-on Impressions and Release Info
I’ll put it out there at the top: I’m not really a PVPer in MMOs. I’ve spent my time doing it, usually zerging around in Guild Wars 2’s world versus world, or… zerging around in World of Warcraft&#...
Starpoint Gemini 2 – Early Access First Impressions
Having not played the original Starpoint Gemini from 2010 by Little Green Man Games, I didn’t really know what to expect from Starpoint Gemini 2. The game, as described by a friend while he was watching me play the first couple...
