Total Chaos is not the follow-up to five-star retro shooter Turbo Overkill I expected

But the follow up, Total Chaos, seems to be a very different beast. This is a game about surviving in an oppressive place, a game of atmosphere and strangeness. On the surface, the two games seem nothing alike. Total Chaos Yet underneath that you could absolutely feel the similarities. Heavy steel doors and barred rooms hide letters and journals, which in turn hint towards human experimentation. Clearly nothing good happened here....

Delta Force review

Come for the battles, stay for the extraction shooting, avoid the atrocious campaign. Delta Force review As it turns out, Delta Force mainly adds to the noise. Its multiplayer spins on large-scale combat and squad-based extractions are meticulously designed and undeniably entertaining. But they’re also structurally conservative, only making minor tweaks to otherwise familiar formulas. This isn’t the only puzzling aspect to Black Hawk Down’s relationship with its source material....

Promise Mascot Agency is exactly the kind of deranged open world management game I need right now

Check, check, check andcheck. Well, I say they happen off-screen. Successful jobs certainly will, but every gig I booked for my little trio went wrong in some way.
