Remember the 1991 movie, The People Under the Stairs? The one where a group of robbers (including a young Ving Rhames) discover some kids locked in a basement during a house robbery. They are then chased through the walls of the home by its sadistic owners and their dogs. While playing through Out of Sight, from developer The Gang, I couldn’t help but think of the Wes Craven classic movie.

Over the years, I’ve played dozens of VR shooters just like Harpagun but none nearly this charming or fun. Borrowing loosely on the premise of Time Crisis or any of those arcade light gun games, you’ll be playing a space scavenger on a rescue mission to save one of their missing crew, as you explore a futuristic abandoned Earth teaming with aliens awaiting your response.

Golden Gloves is the latest boxing simulator to hit VR and despite my overall lack of enthusiasm for physical activity, this one actually got me out of my chair and working up a sweat. This is the official game for the Golden Gloves of America and the virtual gym was created by a licensed coach, promoter, and gym owner. The experience may seem limited at first glance, but once you start to explore the classic old-style gym, you’ll find lots to do starting with changing your environment.

Are you a fan of those moody side-scrolling adventure games like LIMBO and INSIDE; you know the ones that are primarily shadow and silhouette with minimal music and little to no story or motivation. It’s been a while since we had one of those but now Bionic Bay has arrived to satisfy our cravings, and it is quite the tasty treat.

Over the past 30 years I have written over 5,000 reviews but only three of those were for cookbooks and that includes today’s tasty entrée, PAC-MAN: The Official Cookbook, which I have to admit, of all three cookbooks I’ve reviewed, this is by far the best of the bunch. The “build quality” is incredible, with a heavy hardback cover that could double for a cutting board.
