Game Review: ‘They Are Billions’

The awesome folks over at Blitworks and Numantian Games gave me the opportunity to don my goggles and top hat in order to fight off the ever-hungry hoard of the undead in their upcoming Steampunk survival game, They are Billions. This real-time strategy city building game with a tower defense twist takes place on a planet that’s being colonized until a zombie outbreak occurred turning most of the planet’s inhabitants into an infected hoard and it’s not up to you to rebuild civilization. This game is truly a twist on some of your more traditional tower defense style games as the enemies don’t exactly follow a route, they can come from any direction! Because of this I actually lost the game a couple of times. Usually, I save the bad things about a game for the end of the review but I’ll actually get it out of the way this time as there is only one real negative thing I

This July Netflix’s new mockumentary follows “Stranger Things” actor David Harbour as he uncovers lost footage from his father’s televised stage play, Frankenstein’s Monster’s Monster, Frankenstein.

Refused To Provide Soundtrack For ‘Cyberpunk 2077’

The Swedish punk-rock band Refused will be taking on the role of the fictional band SAMURAI in the upcoming FPS that’s taking the world by storm, Cyberpunk 2077. CD PROJECT RED’s music director Marcin Przybyłowicz headed the project to compile an EP of SAMURAI’s greatest hits with tracks recorded that were inspired by the game as well as original tracks by Refused that were written exclusively for Cyberpunk 2077. It was an unexpected challenge that turned out to be right up our alley and really got us going. The songs turned out great and the game looks insane,” says Refused’s lead vocalist Dennis Lyxzén Fans of both Refused and Cyberpunk 2077 can download SAMURAI’s song “Chippin’ In” which was featured in the E3 trailer, on selected music stores and streaming services.
