Is Dead Rising (2006) Still Worth Playing In 2026? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Frank West has covered wars you know, and Lennon and David revisit Dead Rising one across both the 2006 original and the Deluxe Remaster to find out if Capcom's shopping mall zombie survival classic still holds up twenty years later. They cover the survivor AI, the psychopaths, the tonal changes in the remaster, Frank's new voice, and why this game's premise still hits differently to almost anything else out there.
Is Wolfenstein Youngblood Still Worth Playing In 2026? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wolfenstein Youngblood has the Wolfenstein name, the Paris setting, Nazi-killing gunplay that feels as good as The New Colossus, and almost nothing else that made the previous two games great. Lennon and David break down the bullet sponge enemies, the aimless hub world backtracking, and the twin protagonists who feel like they wandered in from a different franchise.
Is Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus Still Worth Playing In 2026? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wolfenstein The New Colossus picks up where The New Order left off and improves on it in nearly every way, as Lennon plays it for the first time and David revisits it to find out if Machine Games' 2017 sequel still holds up in 2026.
Is Wolfenstein The New Order Still Worth Playing In 2026? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wolfenstein The New Order drops BJ Blazkowicz into an alternate 1960 where the Nazis won World War II, and Lennon plays it for the first time while David revisits it to find out if Machine Games' 2014 FPS revival still holds up in 2026. The dual wield machine guns, the brutal pacing and the genuinely interesting alternate history setting all land.
Is Prototype 2 Still Worth Playing In 2026? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Prototype 2 is bigger, slicker and more fun than the original in pretty much every way, and Lennon plays it for the first time while David revisits it to find out if James Heller's revenge story holds up better than Alex Mercer's edgelord origin in 2026.
