The Darkside appeals

This more or less looks the same as Umbrella chronicles from a game play and graphical standpoint. But the story is looking like it'll shed some light on a couple of things. Namely what happened pre-Resident evil 4. Krauser making like Snake Eater and Bad ass Leon working together side by side in their own chapter is intriguing. I'm glad bad ass Leon will be making an appearance. Little 'Police bitch uniform, white plimmie, gangsta hop through a wooden door' Leon weren't doin' it for me. But black t-shirt, 'My ass has been hittin' a gym', gun harness rockin', size 10 boot through a mutha f**kin' do' Leon was! Can't wait to see what the deal is with Leon and Krauser, and who the girl in the white dress is. According to Capcom she's pretty central to things. So central that we only get a mention of her now. And in a light gun game on Wii at that.

I hope we'll get some scoop on Sherry Birkin too. Judging from the 0:35 mark in the trailer it's looking like her dark secret may be that she likes to give zombies head.

Black refiners. We’ve gotta talk about that Milchick and Drummond moment in the Severance episode, “The After Hours”.

So, I’m watching season 2 of Severance. And as I post this, the ninth episode of the season “The After Hours” has just aired. And I really wanna talk about it. Well, I wanna talk about one moment in particular — Milchick and Drummond’s lil’ chat. Probably one of my favourite moments of the episode, which felt like the culmination of lots of Milchick moments diverging — adding a new wrinkle to a story and a world which already has more wrinkles than a newborn Shar Pei. Severance has made a commentary on a lot of things. Corporate shenanigans. Abuse of power dynamics. Sexisism. Homophobia. Religion. Consent. Control. And now I guess we can add race to the mix. Full disclaimer. To fully pre-empt and prevent being branded a liar and being misleading — the images in this post with subtitles are not official subtitles from Severance. They are subtitles I slapped on the images for extra effect and humour’s sake, in the vein of ‘What would these characters want to actually say’. I am including...

Review: Bayonetta | Bullets 'n' booty

So, what do you do when a franchise that you loved and created lies in the hands of a company you no longer work for? Easy! You make a game just like it. Except better. With more guns. More bloodshed. More hair. And a contender for the sexiest female character of all time in the lead role who strips naked to kill people. Enter, Bayonetta. Bayonetta is developed by the creator of Devil may cry, and this shows from the start. The button configuration is similar, the way you pull moves off is similar, the styles are similar. It really is a spiritual counter-part to Devil may cry. It's easy to turn your nose up at this, and cast it off as a re-hash, or a regurgitation of what we've had before. (Especially if you hate Devil may cry as much as I do). But Bayonetta is much more. The game seems shallow when you take it at place value and see nothing but half nakedness and open legs in the gameplay footage. But beneath the surface lies a damn good game, which trumps the franchise t...

Game Review: Final Fantasy VII Remake | The Real Housewives of Avalanche

So, originally I had written part of this as a '7 days with Final Fantasy VII Remake' piece, because I had thoughts that I felt compelled to type and share with all 2 people who know of this wasteland of blog. But I was so close to the end and had heard 'whispers' about the ending to this game, so figured I should just complete the damn thing so I can talk about all the things. And now here I am. Ready to talk about it all. This Review will be chock-a-block full of spoilers. So if you've not played the game yet, then read on at your own risk.

Yes. Everything Is Rubbish.
