Allan Border’s Cricket (PC) – Review – Square Cuts and Square Pixels

Is Allan Border’s Cricket a proud, straight-bat classic or the weird uncle who gate-crashes every retro-sports reunion? Does it deserve a place in the Hall of Fame next to Sensible Soccer and NBA Jam, or should it be sent back to the pavilion before it’s even padded up? (Answer: both, and I’ll explain once I stop laughing at the menu […]

Alien Breed (PC) – Review – Bug-Splattered Nostalgia on a Floppy Disk

Is Alien Breed on MS-DOS a bizarre curio or a straight-laced classic? Is it criminally underrated or mercifully forgotten? Is it foundational space-marine scripture or the footnote you skim past while sprinting toward DOOM? (Rhetorical triple-shot, my ammo counter’s already blinking red.) The short answer: yes, no, and sort of, but let me unpack that

Rhetorical question, answer incoming anyway: both. Sierra’s 1993 follow-up to Search for Cetus is simultaneously a wide-eyed children’s field trip and a surprisingly sharp adventure-game knife, slicing deforestation villains with kindergarten-safe quips (and then reminding you

Syndacate (PC) – Review – The Day the Persuadertron Rewired My Moral Firmware

Is Syndicate a bizarre curio or a straight-laced classic? (Plot twist: it’s both, a trench coat of industrial-grade nihilism worn over razor-sharp design that still slices through 2025’s ocean of open-world busywork.) Criminally underrated or secretly overrated?, Yes, depending on whether your first contact was a pack of pirated floppies in ’93 (underrated revelation) or
