Ninety minutes of brutal, unsettling horror in 32:9. Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival is the best demo I’ve ever played, and it genuinely frightened me. Demo score: 100/100.
Pestilence Review: Creepy Horror, Frustrating Puzzles (5/10)

ACE COMBAT 8: WINGS OF THEVE is spectacular at 5120×1440 in 32:9. Ronny scores it 9.5/10, but the full-price cost keeps it from being an easy recommendation.

HR: Human Remains turns a demonic office job into a strange, varied horror adventure with surprising heart. Jake Boyette reviews it on PC and scores it 9/10.
Pulse Drive Demo Review — Addictive Rhythm Racing With Rough Edges
I tested the Pulse Drive demo ahead of its September 29 release. The rhythm-racing idea is addictive and performance is solid, but onboarding and controller feel still need work.

Duskfade Review – Clunky Platforming and PC Stutter
After three hours with Duskfade on PC, clunky movement, repetitive gameplay, weak humor, collision problems, and severe stuttering left us unable to recommend it. Reviewed at 5120×1440 and 2560×1440. Score: 2/10.
Ghost Recon Wildlands: Last Rites Review – Returning to Bolivia After 700 Hours
After more than 700 hours in Ghost Recon Wildlands, Last Rites gave me a real reason to return to Bolivia. Ubisoft’s new free content delivers the tactical challenge and freedom that made Wildlands one of my favourite games.
The Skin Stapler Review: Disgusting, Funny, and Hard to Look Away From
The Skin Stapler is a short PSX-style grindhouse horror game filled with murder, gore, dark comedy, and sexual weirdness. Its scares often feel funny, but the strong three-hour story earns a 7/10.
