I've been waiting for something to knock Call of Duty off its perch, and Battlefield 6 should be the one to finally do it. Check out my review for @butwhytho.net: butwhytho.net/2025/10/batt...

Battlefield 6 Review: Bringing A Beloved Franchise Back to Life

Battlefield 6 is a giant leap forward for the franchise, returning it to the peak of online first-person shooters.

Absolum fuses the Hades style rogeike with beat ‘em ups and its spectacular. A gorgeous and heartful game that finds some surprising ways to shake up the formula. Easily one of the best best ‘em ups ever made, and I think the most compelling “Hades-like”we’ve seen. www.inverse.com/gaming/absol...

'Absolum' Is The Perfect Chaser To 'Hades 2'

'Absolum' ambitiously combined the roguelike with the beat 'em up, and the unique concoction is a phenomenal success.

The Wonder Years or Hot Mulligan. Both haven't missed on a single album. Arm's Length and The Home Team have a ton of potential too, a few fantastic albums already

Back on the review train and got the chance to review Aethermancer and I liked it a lot.

Developer moi rai games has a great understanding of how to combine the monster-collecting genre with rogue-like elements in a meaningful way that's almost unexpected with how well they nail it in early access.

Console Creatures @consolecreatures.com · 2d

Aethermancer is a surprisingly fun game, even in early access, and already feels like a solid foundation that combines Pokémon-like monster collecting with roguelike elements in a turn-based battle system that takes a fresh approach to team combat.

Hey ya’ll. Pleased to say Inverse now has a Bluesky account, and I will (largely) be running it. So if you’d give @inverse.com a follow on here, I’d tremendously appreciate it.
