News Forget Kong, GameMill's The Walking Dead: Destinies Could Be Amongst 2023's Worst
So far, anyway
GameMill Entertainment is a publisher that rose to notoriety last month with Skull Island: Rise of Kong, an abysmal offering so bad it beggared belief. The Walking Dead: Destinies, which GameMill quietly released last week, plumbs new depths, an impressive achievement in its own right.
Mini Review Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 (PS5) - A Tighter, More Focused Platform Fighter
Super Smash Bros Brawl 2?
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 is a follow-up to 2021’s one-to-four-player Nicktoon platform fighter of the same name. This time with a fully-fledged roguelike campaign and a weighty overhaul to the combat, the Nicktoons must rescue their fellow fighters from Vlad Plasmius’ mind control and restore the Nickelodeon...
News Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Gets Roguelike Story Campaign in Latest Trailer
Bubble trouble
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 is only a week away from launch on PS5 and PS4 — that's certainly crept up on us. The platform fighter, fundamentally similar to Super Smash Bros., is looking like a decent follow-up to the first game, which was a surprise hit. Today, publisher GameMill Entertainment has released a new trailer, focusing...
News Skull Island: Rise of Kong Given Just a Single Year of Development
Part of a vicious cycle
Skull Island: Rise of Kong has been doing the rounds for all the wrong reasons, with some calling it the worst game of 2023, thanks to its shallow production values and wonky gameplay. This, inevitably, led to the title being roundly dunked on by the internet writ large and dubbed a "Gollum-like" as a result. Sadly, like
News Rewrite Fictional History in The Walking Dead: Destinies on PS5, PS4
Carl?
The Walking Dead: Destinies is a third-person narrative-driven adventure game, and it's coming to PlayStation platforms on 17th November. It has an intriguing pitch: players can explore story paths that AMC's adaptation didn't, allowing players to influence the action. It's looking a bit shaky, and frankly, that's part of the reason for our...
News 'Gollum-Like' King Kong Game Is Getting Torn to Shreds Online
"The worst game of 2023"
Let's not sugarcoat it: the new King Kong game, Skull Island: Rise of Kong, is a disaster. The action title is out now on PS5 and PS4, and it's being torn apart by... well, just about everyone. At the time of writing, the game has just one review to its name — a PC write-up from IGN — and that's got a 3/10 slapped on the...
News Gollum May Not Be the Worst PS5, PS4 Game of the Year After All
It's all gone King Kong
The Lord of the Rings: Gollum turned out to be not-so precious when we awarded it a terrible 2/10 earlier this year, but it may actually have strong competition for the gaming Golden Raspberries. Footage of the newly released Skull Island: Rise of Kong from GameMill is beginning to proliferate online – and it honestly...

News Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Announced, New Characters Revealed in Debut Trailer
Futurrrre
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl launched back in 2021 and was surprisingly decent — save for a lack of voiceovers. That would come along in a later update, but it seems GameMill Entertainment is taking another run at this platform fighter all the same. It's just revealed Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 with the above gameplay trailer. This...
News Shrek, Po, and Boss Baby Burn Rubber in DreamWorks All-Star Kart Racing
Hey now, you're an all-star

News Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 May Be PS5, PS4's Worst Kept Secret
CatDog's out of the bag
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl was a fairly innocuous take on the Smash Bros. formula, and we quite liked it for what it was. A sequel is apparently in the works, at least, according to the constant pitter-patter of leaking information, loose threads, and developer insinuations which, together, present a pretty compelling...
News Avatar: The Last Airbender: Quest for Balance Bends the Elements on PS5, PS4 in 2023
Don't look back in Aanger
A sure-fire sign of a good game is when there are multiple colons in the title, so we're excited to see more of Avatar: The Last Airbender: Quest for Balance. The announcement trailer above introduces the idea; essentially, this looks to be an action adventure that lets you live out the best moments from the hit animated...
News NASCAR Arcade Rush Brings Over-the-Top Motorsport to PS5, PS4
Let's go away
If you like your console racers to be a little less realistic and a lot over-the-top, then NASCAR Arcade Rush may be up your alley. Announced earlier this week for PS5 and PS4, the “high-octane” release promises to “wildly reimagine” iconic NASCAR circuits, with “jaw-dropping twists, hair-raising turns, gravity-defying jumps,...

Watch the new gameplay trailer
We'll be honest, it's a bit of a surprise to see a third entry in this budget kart racing series.

The game is set to feature more than...
News Grown Men Fight Teens in First Gameplay for Cobra Kai 2: Dojos Rising
Strike first, strike hard, no mercy
We got our first look at gameplay for Cobra Kai 2: Dojos Rising today, an upcoming brawler based on the popular TV show, and not in reality, apparently, judging by the elemental special attacks these teens are unleashing. This one isn't too far off either, as Cobra Kai 2: Dojos Rising is slated for a Fall 2022...
News Jimmy Neutron's Dad Joins the Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl on PS5, PS4
What the duck?!
Let’s be honest: MultiVersus has completely and utterly eaten Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl’s lunch.

Thus, amid all the EVO 2022 excitement, Jimmy Neutron’s father Hugh Neutron has joined the release’s roster...

Jenny, Hugh, Rocko
Between the likes of Multiversus and LEGO Brawls, it feels like publishers are beginning to pluck up the confidence to take on the Super Smash Bros formula again.

I'm ready
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl releases tomorrow, 5th October for both PlayStation 5 and PS4, and there's a somewhat surprising amount of excitement.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl might be a licensed multiplayer brawler on a limited budget, but it's drummed up a surprising amount of enthusiasm from fans of both fighting games and Nicktoons.

News Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl Looks Surprisingly Technical in Gameplay Breakdown
Devs show off Smash-like fighting
The announcement of Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl has been met with a fair amount of excitement from fans. It seems like a rock solid idea, right? A party brawler in the same vein as Super Smash Bros., starring numerous Nicktoons new and old? It sounds like a slam dunk — but it needs to get the gameplay right. In a...

Coming to PS5 and PS4 this year
Well, this will go down smoothly. Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is the company's attempt at a Super Smash Bros. clone.

News G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout Looks Surprisingly Alright
Cobra phobia
Wait, are our eyes deceiving us or is this a perfectly acceptable upcoming G.I. Joe game? The franchise has played host to some stinkers over the years – most notably the Rise of Cobra movie tie-in on the PlayStation 3 – but this all-new effort due out on 13th October looks like a competent, corny adaptation of the legendary...
News Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2: Grand Prix Leaks Online, Promises More Characters and Tracks
Yay?
Did anybody really ask for a sequel to Nickelodeon Kart Racers? The PlayStation 4 title had potential given the vast catalogue of toons to draw from, but the end result was disappointing. It just wasn't up to scratch, with hardly any characters and zero voice work. Amazingly, it seems a follow-up is around the corner, as an Australian rating...
Review Nickelodeon Kart Racers - A Disappointing Drive
Slime time
Here's a positive spin: there are definitely kart racing games on the PlayStation 4 with worse concepts than one based on Nickelodeon cartoons. It's sadly a sub-genre criminally underserved this generation, and most of the examples on offer don't exactly fire the imagination. Unfortunately, Nickelodeon Kart Racers falls into this camp as...
News Nickelodeon Kart Racers Looks Fit for a Sliming in New Trailer
I'm not ready
It's been a while since the initial announcement of Nickelodeon Kart Racers, but today we can finally see it in action.

It's pretty rough around the edges, but there could still be some...
News Nickelodeon Kart Racers Is the Weirdest Thing
But we want it
Well, here’s a game that we’ll almost certainly be palming off to Stephen Tailby to review when it launches on 23rd October – not that we won’t be giving him the stink-eye while he plays it. Nickelodeon Kart Racers is a real game, and it features characters from SpongeBob Squarepants, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Hey Arnold,...
