Review by Brad L. Snow levels are the bane of my existence. Many games have their wintery themed levels, which to me generally look uninspired, and use the snow and ice as an excuse to offer the player a new challenge in making the floors slippery and difficult to navigate.…
Read MoreReview by Matt C. To read the official product description of NieR: Automata’s first major DLC, you might expect a fairly straightforward arena mode and a few unlockable costumes. That’s an accurate description, but also a very incomplete one; just as NieR: Automata is so much more than a “fresh…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII is one of my favourite strategy games ever. On the PlayStation 4, it plays beautifully (proving that even the most complex strategy games can work using a game controller), looks beautiful, and has incredible strategic depth.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. And so, just like that, the final “chapter” of Miku’s first VR outing draws to a conclusion. It’s too soon, and I want too much more, but the third stage for Hatsune Miku: VR Future Live is a superb conclusion to my favourite VR experience to…

Read MoreReviews by Matt S. and Nick H. Welcome to the latest batch of short ‘n sweet reviews, where we look at a number of games that we have been playing that we just haven’t got the time to do give full reviews to. These aren’t necessarily bad games – not…
Read MoreArticle by Matt S. Last week I reviewed the excellent Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X. Releasing at the same time as the game is some paid-for DLC, and while I know this puts people off, I’m a fan of DLC in general in extending the life of favourite games. Related…
Read MoreReview by Sam M. Blood and Wine (a literal title, describing what this expansion entails, Vampires and Vineyards) presents a world to Geralt that is a stark contrast to the gritty and dark realm of the Northern Kingdoms. In the first quest given to the Witcher, the player is reminded…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I really expected Naotora Ii to be a token character thrown in to eke some additional life out of the already excellent Dead or Alive 5: Last Round. Something to convince players to throw one more wad of cash into the hat as Koei Tecmo prepares…
