Lately I’ve been keeping a special eye on Cronos, which looks to satisfy my craving for survival horror games in the vane of Dead Space and Resident Evil. It was cool to get a lil bit of clarity on what the game’s going to be like firsthand. What sold me is how the monster’s will rebuild themselves off of the corpses of there own kind. I’m excited to see what Bloober Team has in store for us. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Medieval Supermarket Shop Simulator
Medieval Supermarket Shop Simulator on PS5, developed by CGI LAB SRL, is an absolutely horrible game. If you played any of the TCG Card Shop Simulator (Steam Review) copies out there, you might be expecting a passable game that is fun to mess around with. This is not it. Everything, however, about this game is pretty atrocious. The controls are pretty unresponsive, they go unexplained at pretty much every turn as well as don’t even make much sense.
You can only really set prices by moving them up or down from market value by 10% in either direction. This may not seem like a big deal, but it does limit your options for controlling what you can do. Restocking the store is also a hassle because you have to run a decent distance to the guy selling merchandise to buy things, then pick up the boxes and run back to your store. If this wasn’t bad enough, you don’t seem to be able to put boxes down once you pick them up. I may be wrong on this, and I just never figured it out, as I said, the controls are very poorly explained, and it is pretty much just trial and error.
I spent less than $3 on this game while it was on sale, and I kind of want my money and the 2 hours I spent playing it back. To make matters worse, the platinum trophy is very achievable simply by playing the game. It wouldn’t need a big time sink to get it, but it sits at a huge .3% or so.
If you are considering picking this game up, don’t. Please don’t make the same mistake as I and encourage these types of games any more than we already have. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Alan Wake 2
13 years since we last joined writer Alan Wake and his battle against the otherworldly Dark Presence. 13 years since he went missing in Cauldron Lake, a new threat has emerged in Bright Falls. Violent rituals being perpetrated by a cult seemingly inspired by Wake’s works have attracted FBI attention. Agent Saga Anderson and her partner Alex Casey are on the case- quickly realizing nothing is how it seems and Bright Falls has more than a murder cult and a cast of strange characters to contend with. Reality is being rewritten and the Dark Presence is returning, this time under the guise of the malevolent Mr. Scratch. As Saga’s history comes crashing down, the mystery of all mysteries is what happened to Alan Wake?
Alan Wake remastered was a solid action experience with a great story and some really irritating parts. Wake 2 is a modern horror masterpiece. The story is absolutely fascinating with plenty of twists and character development. Visually, the game is incredible, blending animation and live action flawlessly. The gameplay is improved but overall the game is more difficult; full disclosure, I sucked at this game because I’m the worst pathfinder in existence and I rushed through many of the goodies that would have helped a lot for the endgame. I was impressed how genuinely errie and tense the game gets, especially in the second half. Poets of the Fall return with new bangers as the Old Gods of Asgard, including a great live performance with the cast. What gripes I have are pretty small- I wasn’t a fan of the upgrade system for weapons, the reality shifts as Wake himself get confusing, and the game requires a learning curve for Saga’s mind place and Alan’s writing room but they don’t really subtract from the game for me. I will warn you, the real ending appears after the second playthrough on the Final Draft, but both endings are damn good. In the end, I highly recommend this if you love old sci-fi, classic David Lynch and Stephen King, or want a different kind of horror game. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Crisol: Theater of Idols trailer
I want to take a second and talk about a game I haven’t seen much buzz about that I think deserves some. I love the vibe I got, feeling close to Lies of P and Resident Evil VIII: Village . I really liked the aesthetic and that it does look fun, which can be rare in survival horror. I’m excited to see more about this game come out. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Borderlands 4 story trailer
After the lackluster story of Borderlands 3 , am I excited for 4? The game looks fun. But I gotta admit Randy Pitchford’s comments about the real Borderlands fans being willing to pay $80, like many gamers in our very harsh American economy, rightfully pissed me off. It’s going to be a long time if I even decide to pick up BL4 but from everything I’ve seen, the game basically looks like business as usual for the series. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Silent Hill F trailer
So I gushed over Resident Evil 9 reveal trailer but there was another trailer at 2025’s State of Play that really hit me. I’d never gotten into Silent Hill but I loved the lore, imagery, and music. F looks a fresh take on the classic franchise. The graphics and atmosphere look great and my curiosity is piqued at the story. I’m incredibly excited to experience a new entry in this beloved series. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Resident Evil 9 reveal trailer
It’s finally here! I’ve followed any news I could since Resident Evil VIII: Village, wondering where the story would go now that Ethan’s story is finished. We’re introduced to our new protagonist, Grace Ashcroft, who’s wrapped up in her own mysterious story. If this is your first time seeing the trailer, I don’t want to spoil a very familiar locale, just that I freaked out as well as the title drop. RE: Requiem is dropping 2 weeks after my birthday, and this is absolutely my most anticipated of 2026. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
Prey
Have you ever had that 1 game that haunted you? You wanted to get into it, pmped hours in, but never never clicked. Prey is one such game for me. Long time followers will know I wrote mini posts on my time with it nearly a decade ago. In my time away, I managed to finish it and months later my thoughts are still pretty potent.
We play as Morgan Yu, newly brought onto the Talos 1 space station by your brother to get a new life, with a fancy new job and life. Life looks great. That is until Morgan wakes up to catastrophe as a inky, black, extraterrestrial called the Typhon unleashing on the station. The Typhons can mimic nearly anything, living or inanimate as well as possess extraordinary abilities. Not only must Morgan survive but also uncover Talos’s secret while struggling to stay human, but then again, what is human?
So Prey is a hell of an experience. At first, I was expecting Bioshock in space. There are some pretty deep questions about humanity and identity in the game and it is a creative sim unlike no other. The number of solutions to problems is pretty impressive. The AI for the Typhons is pretty damn smart; you are tense because literally anything can be an enemy. Resources are scarce, and enemies hit extremely hard, and you do have to think about each encounter which is one of my favorite things about the game but also why I hate it. Normal for prey is hard on any other game. Story mode is the medium setting. This game will kick your ass if you aren’t a surviaal, stealth, horror veteran. The only complaint I truly have is the pathfinding is rough; you’re definitely going to be looking up videos because many times during my playthrough, the hub confused and mislead me. The setting is beautifully rendered. The music fits like a glove. I seriously recommend this game with caution because while not an easy game, there is a lot of great things to experience. May the gaming gods bring you glory.
