Review by Chris I. Do you remember that your PlayStation 3 controller features Sixaxis motion controls? I thought about as much; thoughts of Lair still send shivers down my spine to this very day and I’m glad that most developers ignored the Sixaxis controls thereafter. Gaijin Games’ Skydive: Proximity Flight…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. You would expect a game that has been written by the guy that did Adventure Time to be a little crazy, and Stick It To The Man is indeed a little crazy. It’s a game that really revels in being self aware and providing quite juvenile…
Read MorePreview by Matt S. At a PlayStation 4 launch event today I kept being drawn back to the same game. I played it on a nice big TV, with the slick new PS4 controller in my hand. I walked away and played something else for a bit. But then I…
Read MoreReview by Rexly P. Imagine Left 4 Dead as a 3D side-scrolling game and give it a more comical polish and you get Final Exam, which follows the adventures of four characters as they return to their hometown for a high school reunion only to be welcomed by a horde…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. It’s time for one of those dirty little admissions that no game critic should be making; I haven’t played either of Rocksteady’s Batman games. I know them by reputation to be some of the finest examples of games this generation, however, and that’s especially impressive considering…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I love a good paradox. They’re the brain twisters for the intelligent, and also philosophy that everyone can think about. Integrate a good paradox into a narrative and you’ll effortlessly engage your reader or viewer as they ponder over the ideas and theories that you’re throwing…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. On paper, Deadly Premonition might seem like an awful game, and a majority of gamers and critics would have agreed with that sentiment back in 2010, when the game launched on the Xbox 360.
