Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PC Video game remakes aren't anything new, but what about remakes that come out only two years after the original? Metal Max Xeno Reborn is a remake of 2018's Metal Max Xeno that originally released in Japan in 2018 and 2022 in the West courtesy of PQube Entertainment. The original version dropped on the PS4 and PS Vita, and its remake skips the Vita in favor of the Nintendo Switch, and adds PC to the mix too. Does this remake deserve to exist considering it not only came out quickly, but is also available on the same platform as the original? What changes or additions are there that might make it worth picking up a second time? What exactly is the Metal Max series? We'll take a look at these questions, and lots more, in this review. So let's dive into post-apocalyptic Tokyo and find out!

Platforms: PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest, Steam VR (Disclaimer: Just as I was finishing the game for review, a new patch was released that may have addressed some of the issues I bring up in the review. Also, in general, VR experiences may vary wildly between people and setups.) After first gracing computers in April 1993, classic adventure game The 7th Guest has received a VR remake courtesy of Vertigo Games. While adventure games have evolved a lot in the last 30 years, this new take shows that this game got its classic status for a reason. By Manuel  Players: 1
Platforms: Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC CRYMACHINA is an Action RPG that comes by way of FuRyu and NIS America. I actually mistakenly thought it was somehow related to FuRyu's earlier title CRYSTAR, a game that I really enjoyed in its NIS re-release. This game is related only in style and themes, and really does its own thing. It actually is quite unique in terms of story, art style, and just general atmosphere and feel of the world. Actually, calling it simply an Action RPG truly does it a disservice as it really changes up the gameplay formula; not always for the best. I'm getting ahead of myself though. Let's back up, and take a long look at CRYMACHINA and see if this a world that you're going to want to dip your feet into. Trails of Cold Steel III / Trails of Cold Steel IV Gameplay Trailer & Release Date Announcement10/30/2023  There have been many Trails games released in recent years and there might be some confusion as to where one can jump into the series.

Platforms: Nintendo Switch Composer World is a music creation tool that recently released on the Nintendo Switch. Calling it a game is a bit of a stretch, but we'll get into that more later on. Released by Dynamic Voltage Games, Composer World lets you create music using different soundfonts from several styles like pop, jazz, synths, and even retro 8 and 16 bit console sounds too. You can then share your creations online with players from around the world, and gain experience from others listening to your songs, and from listening to theirs as well. It probably goes without saying that this will probably be a difficult game to review, but we're going to give it a go anyway.... so wish us luck! By Al  Players: 1-2 (Local & Online)
Platforms: Nintendo Switch, XBox, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 There are several retro arcade collections out there today, and QUByte have a new one for everyone to check out: VISCO Collection! VISCO Corporation is a game developer that is best known for their titles released on Neo Geo systems, and their arcade collaborations with a pre-Sega Sammy. This collection brings together seven of their games, and they are quite the spread in terms of genre and origin. Seeing as rating this as a single game might be a bit difficult (Though we will do that later!), we're going to tackle each game one at a time. Since there's seven of these, let's just do away with the rest of the intro and get right into it!  Forthright Entertainment & Huracan Studio have been working hard ever since the Early Access launch of Terrordrome: Reign of Legends. The game is now set for a full Steam release this December, and you can read more about it below!
