I’m going to go on record now and say Overcooked is absolutely evil! I have a theory that the devil cooked up this game (pun very much intended) to torment the world of gamers. Forget games like Demon’s Souls or Cuphead, because Overcooked will test your patience to the limit. I’d go as far and […]
DVD & Blu-ray: Land of the Dead (2005)George Romero’s original ‘Dead Trilogy’, consisting of Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead (make sure to hear my interview shows with Scott Reiniger and John Harrison for some inside stories about it) and Day of the Dead (myself & Tina chatted with Lori Cardille too,) […]
Batman: Arkham VR RetrospectiveIn my latest quest to get 100% trophies, I decided to revisit Batman: Arkham VR to grab a few which I missed when I last played it in 2016. I’ve been playing quite a few PSVR games lately, so I was looking forward to diving a bit deeper in the world of The […]

The Order 1886 Revisited2015 seems like an awfully long time ago. In my own life I was on the cusp of turning 40, only had one child and started writing for 60MW, or 60 Minutes With as it was known back then. The 60MW website was brand spanking new and in need of new content. […]

DVD & Blu-ray: 8 Mile (2002)8 Mile passed me by back in the day, and not being a rap fan I didn’t seek it out despite its director, Curtis Hanson being on my radar from The Wonder Boys and the amazing LA Confidential.Starring Eminem in his film debut, alongside Mekhi Phifer, Brittany Murphy, Michael Shannon, Anthony Mackie, and Kim Basinger, the […]
