The development team at Time To Kill live up to their name with their new demolition derby title KillSteel. Featuring weapons of mass destruction, over-the-top action, and a guy named Wild Willy, should players get ready to rumble?
KillSteel Review
In true destruction derby fashion, the premise is the same. You get a car, you are thrown into one of three different arenas with a bunch of other cars, and you must destroy as many as you can without getting toast.
However, with this being a videogame, there are some wrinkles to the formula. A number of power-ups line the field, including shockwaves, dynamite, laser blasts, and missiles. However, we found that these are horribly unbalanced. Lining up a laser blast with the uneven terrain was an absolute pipe dream, while the missile option hit its target every single time. A bit more balance would have gone a long way.
The same lack of balance lies in the physics engine powering this title. Though players can choose from four different cars (with just the make names of the vehicles like "Ford" and "Chevy"), each ride handles like a boat. They might vary in health, handling, and speed, but we didn't notice any major differences between the wheels. If anything, we never had to worry about our health at all – most of the opposing riders ended up taking out most of the competition on their own volition.
Rather, the problem arose when we tried hitting a turn. The wide angle steering and ramps make for a deadly combination – even the smallest inconvenience would ragdoll our vehicles in something best suited for the world of Looney Tunes. Even when our car was tits up, it was painfully easy to spin right around to back on our wheels. It just felt cheap, like little design went into its engine. It's telling when the area with the most personality is the names of the rivals.
Those who'd like to bring a friend along are out of luck, as this is strictly a single player affair. Most players will have seen everything this title has to offer within 20 minutes, and with most affairs lasting between three to five minutes, there's not much staying power for those looking for it. If you've seen one thing, you've seen them all.
One thing worth noting is that there are a number of graphical settings one can adjust. Tweaks to its lighting, textures, post-processing, foliage, and more are all present and accounted for, but don't be fooled – this game is far from a looker. It often feels like one is simply playing with stock assets in something like Unity or Unreal, and other than the "totally tubular" announcer, there's no personality to speak of.
Demolition derbies with weapons should be a raucous affair, but the lack of personality and poor physics make KillSteel feel more like a pretender than a contender in the space.

— Panzer Dragoon: Remake (@PanzerDragoonRE) September 11, 2020
Originally developed by Team Andromeda and SEGA in the 90s, Panzer Dragoon: Remake is a rail shooter that follows the story of a hero that sets out to fight an evil empire in a post-apocalyptic world. To fight in this war, this hero has a dragon (known as the Solo Wing) that has a lock-on laser weapon and a rapid fire gun weapon.
This remake has players piloting their dragon through seven levels, with locales ranging from tropical ocean cities to subterranean ruins. Along the way, players will contend with giant dragonflies, man-sized wasps, sandworms, and flying battleships. New to this release are improved 360-degree controls, along with lock-on targeting.

The Outer Worlds: Peril on Gorgon Review
After a little under a year, The Outer Worlds releases its first DLC: Peril on Gorgon. Is it worth the fifteen dollar entry fee, or should you pass on this trip?
The Outer Worlds: Peril on Gorgon Review
Peril on Gorgon begins with you traveling on your ship to a new area. A delivery service hails you in space, and a package is dropped onto your ship. You open up the box, and there is a served arm with a message referring to a place called Gorgon. When you arrive, you meet with Wilhelmina Ambrose, who says she has a job for you. Gorgon was hers to inherit when her mother passed, but things have gotten a little complicated. What follows is a roughly six to eight hour adventure dealing with the area.
The problem Wilhelmina is having is that there was a new drug being produced on Gorgon. This drug turned 90% of the population into what are called Marauders. You can think of them as more potent versions of bandits and raiders. They have lost all sense of reason, and getting the formula for the drug has been complicated. As you explore Gorgon and read logs and terminals, you realize not all is as it seems. The deeper you dive, the more interesting it gets. In the end, you choose what to do with the Gorgon drug.
Combat hasn't changed all that much from the base game. I will say I think they got a little lazy with the ranged weapons; I got a new laser rifle, which was just a MK3 instead of a MK2. There is some new armor and melee weapons though, and a few upgraded mods as well. The same can be said about the enemies. Most of them are just new color schemes, bigger versions, or more armored versions of previous enemies. It all works, but it is something I noticed pretty quickly.
While Gorgon is a pretty big place, there isn't a ton of side content. There are some journals to collect and a few side quests to do, but it dries up fast. You are even sent to an old area once to complete a quest. The one thing that does stand out is its choices. It does feel like most of the options can help or hurt you in one way or another. Getting that extra keycard from the doctor will get you into his workroom. Alternatively, you can make him made and have to fight off the robots protecting his office. Both options are viable; it just comes down to how you want to handle the situation.
One big thing to note is that you can't start this DLC until a later point in the story. New saves will have players working their way to Gorgon. The more significant issue is if you only save is at the point of no return. I had multiple saves, but my end game save couldn't leave the spot I was at. Beating the game only brought me back to the main menu. Basically, I couldn't access the DLC on that save file. That means if you only have one save and you are at the point of no return, you won't be able to play until it is patched. Outside of that though, there were no bugs or crashes.
Fans of The Outer Worlds will be happy with Peril on Gorgon. However, for anyone else, fifteen dollars is far too steep of an asking price.

No More Heroes III Delayed to 2021
A new Twitter post by Director Goichi "Suda51" Suda yesterday stated that the release of Grasshopper Manufacture's No More Heroes III has been delayed to 2021.
Suda mentions that 2020 has been a really rough period for a number of people, and that the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have "proven to be a real body blow" to their schedule. This caused unforeseen delays in development, and that the development team has finally been able to get back on their feet. They are now focused on prioritizing quality, which is why the release date needed to be moved.
Suda also mentioned that Darick Robertson (The Boys) will lend his talents, serving as an illustrator for the title. Key art from him will be released at a later date.

Freddie claims
Freddie will be thankful and you will be paid 2000 bits and get some free beer. Trixie will be upset, but she can't do much about it right now.
Neither claims
You still get paid, but neither of them are happy about this. I tried to find the spot myself and claim it, but no luck.
Clarence Mostly Choice
Just doing my job
He will ask you why you are going through all the trouble for a journal. He will then ask you to steal the gold statue down below for him. If you do, he will help you.
Trying to uncover the truth
He will say that's fine, but you need to do a favor for him first. He wants that gold statue you might have seen down below. Get it for him and he will help you out.
Intimidate 40
You will get a little bit of EXP and he will ask you for a favor.
You can't walk away from that
A favor for a favor, get that gold statue for him, and he will help you.
You can also give him his eye back if you want. He says he will put a good mark down for you, but so far it hasn't done anything.
Coach Stilley Choice
Persuade 95
He will say as long as you are reasonable, he will talk with you. You can ask him who put the hit on you, but he says I couldn't tell you even if I wanted to. You will need to bribe him with 3700 never to see him again, or use 95 Lie/intimidate him. You can also just kill him if you've had enough of him.
Lie 95
If you lie to him, he will be happy to give up the contract on you. With 95 intimidate you can even give some money out of the deal. He will then say you two will never see each other again. If he pops up later, I will update this.
PAM Choice
Activate Emergency Combat Protocol
She will run towards enemies and kill them. I thought she might turn on you, but she is an ally and a strong one at that. She doesn't leave the building with you, but she willmake your time inside a bit easier.
Mothers Journal Choice
Persuade 20
You are cut off and the transmission is hijacked.
Got my payment ready?
You are cut off and the transmission is hijacked.
Gorgon was bigger then you lead me to believe
You are cut off and the transmission is hijacked.
Why are you interested in old terminals all of a sudden
She says what terminal? And then you are cut off by someone jacking the frequency.
All the choices lead to the same outcome. You need to pick a side, restore Adrena-Time production on Gorgon, or destroy the Adrena-time synthesizer.
The Ambrose Intersection Choice
Restore power to the synthesizer
On your way down to the Synthesizer, you will run into Olivia. She will do whatever she can to stop you. I have tried most all of the convo choices and none of them worked. At the end of all of them I could only kill her. You do get a cool little but scene if you shove her into the reactor though. You will get paid 5000 bits when you return to Minnie.
Activate NDA protocol
If you choose to do this, you will have to take out Minnie. This will cause the Adrena-time to stop being produced on Gorgon and Olivia will pay you 5000 bits.

Turn-Based RPG Black Legend Announced
Players will be able to master the art of alchemy and old-school strategy with the release of Warcave's turn-based RPG Black Legend.
Black Legend is inspired by stories and folklore that dates back to 17th-century Belgium and the Netherlands. Folklore creatures that will make their appearance include nekkers, Witte Wieven, Halewijn, and Old Red Eyes. Combining XCom-esque combat with open world exploration, players will lead a band of mercenaries through Grant, a cursed metropolis that pays host to a fog that can inflict madness on anybody that crosses its path.
The great alchemist Mephisto has taken control of the city, and has a cult of devout followers and fanatics at his beck and call. To battle these foes and come out on top, players will be able to utilize alchemy (which can injure, poison, and debilitate), steel, and close-quarter tactics. Ability combos, unit placement, and well-chosen attacks serve as the key elements to your victory.
As players spend more time in Grant, they can piece together stories from its colorful NPCs, discover new classes and equipment, and explore a number of different locations through its environmental storytelling.
