Star Wars: Lethal Alliance – Twi’lek Adventures

Time to dive into the world of handhelds with Ubisoft’s third-person Twi’lek action game: Star Wars: Lethal Alliance, on the PSP. I saw this game by chance on some random top ten list, and from that moment I knew I had to give it a go. Lethal Alliance is essentially a long-lost title that has managed to evade me all these years – in a franchise that is otherwise pretty much fine combed for hidden gems. Stuff like this makes even the most jaded gamer shiver with anticipation. Rare excitement incoming in the form of an obscure Star Wars title!

DERELIKT – Trailer

Yes, another trailer, but there’s just so much good stuff coming! This time we are checking out the trailer for the upcoming sci-fi FPS horror DERELIKT. It has glorious PlayStation One aesthetics, best compared to the title Alien Resurrection on the PS1 from the year 2000. I read on the developer’s Twitter (X) page that they managed to secure funding, essentially assuring the game will be completed.

When? Well, on Steam, the date says it will be in 2026. So, some time until then. Hopefully, it will not be an Early Access release, but I have a feeling it won’t be, thanks to the tweet above. It oozes confidence in a full game delivery. Check out the trailer after the jump!

Dinolords – Trailer

Let’s continue with the dinosaur theme, and watch the trailer for Dinolords! It’s a game that is in flux regarding release date, but hopefully it will be let free to roam with the other dino games this year. It should be noted that the release will be Early Access. However, from what I have seen, it sure looks promising already, so that removes some angst with it being an EA title. I mean, medieval RTS warfare in England, with dinosaurs included? It’s so campy that it works, especially if the devs treat the story with sincerity, and do not go full Marvel writing. The whole thing reminds me of the old RTS game Paraworld. A game that showed great promise, but lacked in execution. Hopefully, Dinolords will dazzle us with shiny T-rex teeth (and gameplay). Trailer after the jump!

Primal Planet – Demo Impressions

Primal Planet came as a bit of a surprise, considering I found it by pure luck when lazily browsing on Steam, and how much the presentation and gameplay speaks to me. Being a child of the 80s and 90s, dinosaurs were everything, and what is better than playing a metroidvania set during the dinosaur age to still that distant urge for nostalgia. The demo is a hefty one that really lets you dig into the mechanics, and overall, it’s well-designed, with a fun twist on the gameplay: you are not facing the jungle beasts alone!
