Bang bang die trash haha that’s what shooters are about. Featuring major franchises like Halo, Call of Duty, and Borderlands, as well as some stuff that’s actually good haha zing
Looking for the Wolfenstein games? By rights they should be in here, but they’re taking up too much room – they’ve been moved to their own page.

The Gothic in Resident Evil
I’m not a long-time Resident Evil fan. This and Silent Hill – I really feel very underqualified to talk about any of these games, especially in terms of the longer running reception. Really the extent of my exposure is that I watched a playthrough of Resident Evil 7 in 2017, and then I obviously heard…
