Review by Matt S. Azur Lane is one of those explosive media properties that seems to be on an endlessly upwards trajectory. It was, originally, a little sidescrolling shooter game made for mobile. Those are a dime a dozen of course, but thanks to a very large roster of very…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Onechanbara, the bikini-wearing, zombie-slashing brawler series by D3 Publisher has always had a cult following in the west, among people who enjoy things a little bit B-grade. The next entry in the series, Onechanbara Origin, has finally been announced for an English release, which should make…
Read MoreVideo by Harvard L. Super Crush KO is a recent release, but it’s an indie game you absolutely should not overlook. It offers tight, fast, exciting action platforming/brawling, set against a really slick neon aesthetic. Sadly, with a lot of great indie games getting released almost daily, you only need…
Read MoreReview by Pierre-Yves L. You would be hard pressed to find a series that has the mass-market appeal of Dragon Ball. Having started back in 1984, the Dragon Ball series has seen a giant manga run, anime series, video games, movies, and with the more recent Battle of the Gods…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Utawarerumono might be my favourite property that almost no one is aware of. It’s followed a similar trajectory as the Fate series, albeit at a much more niche rate; it was once an adult visual novel, sex scenes and all, but then went “legitimate” with mainstream…
Read MoreVideo by Pierre-Yves L. Remnant is a “Soulsborne”, but one with some significant differences to any of the other efforts in this “mini-genre” that we’ve seen previously. In this video, Pierre-Yves gives you a good look at what to expect from that game, and why it hooked him in good.…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. “Why are you doing this to us?” one of the victims in the film, The Strangers (2008), screams out. It’s a film in which a happy couple are attacked by a gang of mask-wearing sadistic killers for no apparent reason. Of course, that apparent lack of…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I’m not sure there’s any developer out there that understands movement quite like PlatinumGames. Astral Chain is an incredibly fast game when the action scenes kick in, but the sheer agility and grace with which your avatar moves is almost dance-like in its elegance. In fact, given…
