My Star Wars ranking is just The Rise of Skywalker in dead last. By a mile.
How did they manage to make a movie worse than Attack of the Clones?

I've completed every CoD campaign. I made it two levels into Black Ops 7 before giving up. It's incredible how bad it is.

Here's my review for Ambrosia Sky: Act One. Not a lot of coverage for this one (only three reviews on Metacritic, and it doesn't even have a page on OpenCritic), but it's definitely worth checking out.

Ambrosia Sky: Act One Review - Deep Space Burial
Ambrosia Sky: Act One combines its sci-fi setting with intergalactic cleaning to tell a poignant and contemplative story about dying alone in deep space.

You might remember Luis Rubiales as the creep who was touching and kissing Spanish and English players after the 2023 Women's World Cup final. Today, while promoting a book about how he believes he's actually the victim and that it was all a conspiracy, his uncle threw a load of eggs at him. Enjoy.

Here's my review for Football Manager 26. Finally delivers on the tactical overhaul I've been hoping for for years, but the new UI is bad and there are too many missing features.

A new tactical interface and improved match engine are title-worthy, but a frustrating UI, missing features, and numerous bugs drag Football Manager 26 into a relegation battle.

I guess I need to play this game because why are your objectives "tidy up and do laundry" when the house is filled with evil bullshit?

Skattebo's foot is pointing the wrong way because the Giants are cursed.

The tush push is so bullshit you can rip the ball out of Hurts' hand and it's not a fumble.

Here's my review for Ninja Gaiden 4. A few issues, including some repetitiveness during Ryu's section, but otherwise a great character action game that makes me miss when they were more common.

Aiding a genocide wasn't enough for the UK government, they also had to kick up a fuss in support of violent hooligans. And for what? Even their own club doesn't want them going. But that won't stop the gaslighting.
