We have a surprise review this week for a game called Revenge of the Savage Planet. This game was not on our radar, but we’re glad we got it and played it. It’s a third-person collect-a-thon where you fight bugs and other creatures, capture them and collect eggs, spool and more to level up your character. It’s on Xbox Game Pass and can be easily played with a friend!
We also dove back into the 8 year old Star Wars Battlefront 2. It’s been getting some popularity recently because of Star Wars in Fortnite, Andor Season 2 and Star Wars Day. We quickly realized how much we enjoyed that game despite it’s commercial failure due to poor business decisions. We hope the resurgence is enough to bring it back and do it right.
Splitgate 2 is officially out in open beta. They had some issues with the launch but after it was fixed, it feels good jumping back into this game. We predict when the game will release and talk about what we love and don’t love about the sequel to the much anticipated arena shooter.
Lastly, we share our experiences both at Dreamhack Dallas and Dallas Fan Expo. One focused on gaming and esports and the other on nerd culture in comic books, sci-fi, anime and more.
