Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 Review – Springtrap, Lore, and the Game’s Chilling Mechanics

-
Image
From the very first night, Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 makes it clear that it is not trying to repeat the same tricks as the earlier games. The frantic juggling act that defined how the original 2014 Five Nights at Freddy’s game changed horror and the chaotic energy of Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is gone. In its place is a slower, more calculated form of fear. There is only one enemy who can kill you, but he is the most dangerous yet. This is Springtrap, a rotting green rabbit suit that contains the corpse of William Afton, the killer whose shadow has hung over the series from the very beginning. Instead of managing doors, masks, and a swarm of threats, FNaF 3 gameplay focuses on three key systems. Cameras let you track Springtrap’s position. Audio devices lure him away from your office by playing childlike sounds. Ventilation keeps you from blacking out when phantom animatronics fill your vision. Any one of these systems can fail without warning, forcing you into the control panel to pe...

Rob reviews Warhammer 40,000: Darktide on Xbox Series X… After being delayed for just over a year, Swedish developer Fatshark has finally released Darktide on to consoles. With a completely revamped skill tree, and plenty of under the hood changes, the console release is essentially the definitive version of the Astra Militarum shooter. So with a bulk of Nurgle Cultists standing in the way, I said a silent prayer to the Emperor and jumped into the fray.  As a Warhammer 40K fan, Darktide ticked quite a few boxes. While I gravitate to the Adeptus Astartes, playing at the Militarum did make a nice change of pace. As for plot Darktide spins it’s narrative into a self contained story away from the current story that’s currently building in the table-tops tenth edition. Taking the role of a convict, your character is conscripted into the service of the mysterious Inquisitor Grendel and falls under the command of his subordinates. From his flagship - The Mourningstar - you’ll descend int...

Rob reviews Blade Runner 2039 #1... Writers  Mike Johnson, Mellow Brown,  and publisher Titan Comics once again head back to the world inspired by Ridley Scott 's groundbreaking sci-fi noir; Blade Runner .  Now in 2039, while the world may be slightly different, the hunt to decommission rogue Replicants continues. With the remnants of the Tyrell Corporation now folded into the much larger Wallace Corporation, it's not long before the sins of the past once again rise to the surface.  Viewpoint to this opening issue comes from two sides of the Blade Runner world. On one side we have the Replicant LUV. Developed by Wallace Corporation, she's essentially Replicant 2.0. Created without all the defects of the older Tyrell models, LUV's mission is to act as public relations between Wallace and the LAPD. As a Blade Runner, LUV is utterly ruthless in her job. She's able to put up a serious fight against the Replicants she's sent to retire, and she's certa...
