Content warning, I guess. Blood. A lot of it. I’d say something about this being a good sign but… well, I said that about Cyberpunk 2077’s delay last year too.
Portal and Portal 2 remain triumphs. It had an exceptionally interesting conceit, it had really interesting puzzles, and it was funny as heck.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 is out and it is amazing. If you miss the old PS2 days of the game, you need to pick this up. The gameplay is as good as you remember.
