Director Denis Villeneuve continues the epic sci-fi storytelling to the first part of Dune in Dune: Part Two, which is a visually stunning, tremendously acted, and thrilling sci-fi movie that stands toe to toe with other giants in the genre, like Star Wars or The Matrix.

This month in the world of games, we became a cog in the machine in CorpoNation: The Sorting Process, revisited one of the greatest PC games ever made with Free Stars: The Ur-Quan Masters, started a mob war in Of Murder and Moonshine, and more.

While Sony’s Spider-Man Universe™ has given us the absolute highs of the animated Spider-Verse, it’s also given us slop like Morbius and, somehow, Madame Web is even worse.  In fact, it’s one of the worst superhero/comic book movies ever made.

Matthew Vaughn returns to the world of espionage with Argylle but unfortunately, the movie prioritizes plot twists at the expense of everything else, like interesting character development.

It’s finally 2024 and that means getting our hands on the games to start the year off right. We raced Micro Machines in VR, became investigators for Bahnsen Knights and Card Detective, and went on a vampiric quest in The Transylvania Adventure of Simon Quest. Check out these game reviews and more in the January Gamebox 2.0

Jason Statham has recently had a string of mediocre to just plain terrible movies (*cough* Expend4bles *cough*), with only Wrath of Man delivering what we really want from Statham.  The Beekeeper is thankfully peak Statham and utterly ridiculous in almost every way.

Dice were rolled, cards were tapped and all the actions were set for the annual board game event of PAX Unplugged Held from December 1st – 3rd at the Philadelphia Convention Center, Unplugged once again brought a grand show of vendors, panelists, game masters, and creative talents to celebrate the fun and magic of tabletop gaming. There were a ton of sights to see and games to check out that kept us and many others very busy over the three days.

Another year comes to a close but we’ve got one last group of games we got to check out in December for the final Gamebox 2.0 game reviews of 2023.  We took flight in the digital version of Wingspan, revisited classic shooters Kingpin: Reloaded and Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion Remastered, got stealthy in the […]

I’ve been a huge Wallace & Gromit/Aardman Animation fan since I first saw The Wrong Trousers as a kid randomly on PBS and have loved all the other entries in the series, from the other shorts to Curse of the Were-Rabbit.  So it should go without saying that I was extremely excited for the charming duo’s first foray into VR, The Grand Getaway, which is out now on Meta Quest 2, 3, and Pro from Astrea, Aardman, AtlasV and No Ghost Studio.

A quiet countryside is terrorized by supernatural beasts, ravaging the lands and turning all those who hear the infectious howls into bloodthirsty monsters. A deaf hunter, gifted with the foresight of battles to come, is immune to the howls. She ventures from her home and deep into the woods in Howl. Developed by Mi’pu’mi Games […]

This past October 7 & 8th, we attended RetroGameCon X and got to be part of it’s grand celebration. There were lots of cool sights and events to see and our recap goes thought the fun stuff we saw at this year’s show.
