Picking the Perfect “Breach and Clear” Playlist
My friends and I have been playing a fair amount of “Ready or Not” recently – for the unfamiliar, the game is a first-person shooter where you control a SWAT team member participating in various missions, from stopping a robbery at a gas station to rescuing hostages in a hotel (and some much, much worse…

I’ve never played a game that felt as much like doing work as Dying Light 2. Starting this thing up feels like clocking in to a nine-to-five shift at the asbestos mine. Now, a reasonable person would have stopped playing after an hour or so – but you didn’t come here to read reviews written…
