Novel Review - The Horus Heresy: Horus Rising

-

The seeds of heresy are sown… Horus Rising was my first foray into the novels that depicted the wider Warhammer 40K universe. While what would be later known as the Horus Heresy is a well known plot point that drives the 40K table-top narrative, aside from a brief overview we’ve never fully explored the galaxy-wide civil war that fractured the might of the Imperial regime.  Quite often talk of Horus’ betrayal was often left over to the related Codexes, or in my experience the 2nd edition rule book. Here, Games Workshop would set the scene with talk of how Horus - the Emperor’s most favourite son - turned against his father and instigated a civil war which saw nearly half of his fellow Adeptus Astartes legions follow suit and turn traitor with him. With the Horus Heresy novels, we’re now get the nitty gritty of this betrayal. It’s also a betrayal that’s spread across in excess of 60 books.  Horus Rising is the opening chapter within this vast collection and it’s writer Dan Abne...

Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (1999) Review — Why Jill Valentine’s Fight for Survival Still Matters In 2025

It feels a little surreal to be talking about Resident Evil 3: Nemesis in 2025. Yet thanks to the titles imminent release as part of the PlayStation Plus Classics offering, here we are.  Originally released in 1999 for the PlayStation, this third entry in Capcom’s survival horror juggernaut is now making its way onto the PlayStation Plus Classics Collection, giving players old and new a chance to dive into one of the most memorable chapters in the Resident Evil  franchise.  For some, Resident Evil 3 was “the other” sequel, not quite as celebrated as Resident Evil 2, which had wowed gamers a year earlier with its ambitious dual campaigns and cinematic flair. But for those who stuck with Jill Valentine as she fought her way through a city in chaos, Resident Evil 3 delivered something equally special: a faster-paced, more relentless take on survival horror, with one of gaming’s most iconic villains stalking your every step. In 2025, with modern Resident Evil titles pushing i...

Review: The Precinct

-

I am the top-down law!  I’ll be honest when I first saw the trailer for The Precinct, I was instantly hooked. A GTA-style city, 80’s cop drama vibes? Open-world lawbreaking? It looked like someone threw L.A. Noire, Hotline Miami, and Driver into a blender and poured out a crime-fighting cocktail. Naturally, I had to head to its streets to deliver my own version of justice that’ll  hopefully make Judge Dredd blush.  After spending a good chunk of time with the games crime-ridden streets, responding to calls, writing parking tickets, and bring fear to the lawless, I’ve got a lot of thoughts. So, if you’re wondering whether this gritty throwback is worth clocking in for then come with me as we find out.  One thing The Precinct nails right off the bat is its atmosphere. The game drops you into a stylised city that feels like it’s stuck somewhere between the late ‘80s and early ‘90s - if you think of RoboCop’s Detroit you’ll be on the right track. It’s a lawless frontier ...
