Review by Matt S. It’s taken me quite a while to get my review of Gran Turismo 6 live on Digitally Downloaded. Why? Because it’s such a darned big game, and it took me a long time to really appreciate just how great it is. It’s almost overwhelming at first.…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I’m not surprised that VooFoo Studios decided to make a Backgammon game. After the massive success of its Pure Chess and Hustle Kings parlour games, Backgammon is a natural extension of the capabilities that the team has built up.

Read MoreReview by Nick H. Tiny Brains sets itself up as an action/ puzzle game that tackles a lot of physics-based problems while showing off an amusing sense of humour. The world is seen from an angled overhead view, giving you a look at your tiny little abominations, which are attempting…
Read MoreReview by Clark A. A surprising number of franchises have been able to achieve the 25th anniversary milestone considering the relative youth of the games industry. However, much fewer IPs have histories as rich and remarkable as Ys. Nihon Falcom hasn’t been shy about making complete visual and mechanical overhauls,…
