Review by Sam M. The Vita has one of the strongest mobile games libraries, and the gameplay of Lemmings perfectly fits in with what the console does best. The main premise behind this classic series is that the player indirectly directs little creatures known as Lemmings from the entrance of…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. One of the things that continues to vex me is this argument that many people seem to be making that the PlayStation Vita somehow “lacks games.” Apparently if a console hasn’t got AAA-stuff from the platform owner, people mistake that to mean it hasn’t got ANY…
Read MoreOpinion by Matt S. With all the hype from the E3 2014 shows of Sony, Microsoft, EA and Ubisoft starting to die down, I’ve spent the rest of the day (here in Australia) processing all that I just saw. Valiant Hearts is clearly the most emotionally loaded game that we…

Read MoreNews by Matt S. Anyone who knows me knows that of all Tecmo Koei Warriors franchises, it is Samurai Warriors that is my favourite. Samurai Warriors 3 on the Nintendo Wii was a game I spent literally hundreds of hours on (and can no longer play online with friends, sadface).…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Murdered: Soul Suspect frustrates me; it’s a game that shows a world of potential, but ultimately fails to execute on its many promises. In so many ways this game is the textbook case study of the issues with big budget game development. But first, the very…
Read MoreReview by Brad L. Sparkle 2 is nothing new, let us get this out of the way from the get go. Many people may remember a game called ‘Zuma’ by PopCap Games, even fewer would remember Puzz Loop, a similar match-three bubble shooting game that was only released in Japan,…
