What We Played – Lego Horizon Adventures, Max Mustard & Sorry, We’re Closed
It’s been slower going than I’d hoped with the PS5 Pro’s enhanced lineup of games, as I wrangle together all the video clips and comparison points I need. I’m close to completing our Insomniac games round-up though, and I’m convinced that they’re the single best development studio out there this generation.

While Steve has also played some 3D Don’t Die Mr Robot, as well as an early build of Soulframe (from the makers of Warframe), Steve reviewed “the effortlessly cool and sexy Sorry, We’re Closed, a game that takes the bones of a survival horror
