It’s been a while since Jason Blundell last released a game. I had the pleasure of speaking with Reed Austin and Nick Solari of Dark Outlaw Games about their time at the studio, working with Jason Blundell, and why so many people still believe in a new game from the…

Jason Blundell’s new studio, Dark Outlaw Games, has been shuttered by PlayStation after a year and some change.

A Call of Duty Zombies Game Doesn’t Exist. Should It?

It was a busy old weekend for Zombies. This is mainly about the now-squashed rumour of a standalone game, but I can’t discuss that without first giving a shoutout to Skite and co. SEVEN of the Revelations ciphers were solved after almost ten years, fleshing out the much-maligned ending of…

Call of Duty and The Colossus of Activision

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has faced enormous criticism and ridicule since its launch last month, but I haven’t really cared, because I’ve been too busy playing it. I’m not going to retread my review, but I’ll say this: it’s the best Zombies experience since Black Ops 4, and…

The Great War: Zombies Community vs IGN

I’m currently working on my Black Ops 7 Zombies video review, but I’ve been beaten to the punch by IGN. If you’ve read or watched the review, you’ll know it hasn’t gone down particularly well with the Zombies Community. I’ve read a lot of Black Ops 7 bashing these past…
