Review by Matt S. Samurai Defender is the kind of aggressively pointless experience that I find frustrating beyond all else. There’s nothing wrong with it, but it’s also not memorable in the slightest, and while I don’t expect every video game ever made to be a masterpiece, I do think…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I watched the remake of Cabin Fever the other day. You know, that film about a bunch of dim-witted teenagers that go hang out at a cabin in the remote wilderness, where they drink infected water and become afflicted with the most horrific of diseases that…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I don’t generally like brawlers, but I do like Dragon’s Crown. In fact, I’ve ended up enjoying it a whole lot more than I thought I would. Back when I reviewed it on the PlayStation 3, I called it a “bit of multiplayer fun,” but not…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Extinction represents some of the unfortunate problems of mid-tier development: its scattered focus and cut corners lands it firmly in the good-but-not-great category, and thus it fails to either achieve the immersive spectacle of the AAA sphere, nor the affordable ingenuity of the indie space.

Read MoreReview by Tyler T. I’ve never been a fanatic of the LEGO puzzle-platformers (which could very well be due to them being targeted at children), but for the most part they’ve always been well made games that made up for their lack of challenge with plenty of charm. That’s why,…
Read MoreReview by Moshe R. I love the animals of the sea. I don’t know if “love” is the right word here, given I tend to consume animals of the sea on a daily basis. Quite dedicatedly so, actually, since reading somewhere that frequent seafood consumption may explain the extra longevity…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Overgrowth, a combat platformer developed by Wolfire Games, has been in the pipeline for a long time coming. It began as a sequel to a shareware game – Lugaru – and saw a slow but consistent schedule of patches until its final release. The extended development…
