Review by Shaan J. I’m surprised that Wolfenstein: The New Order ever saw the light of day. Not only is it an entry in a fairly low-key series (let’s be honest, the Wolfenstein franchise has lost much of its importance over the last few years), but it’s a narrative-focused single-player-only…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Yoko Taro, the mind behind the Drakengard series (and, of course, Nier, which is all but a Drakengard game), is one of the industry’s true mavericks. He seems to delight in confounding expectations and delivering games that are thematically unique and remorselessly intense. Drakengard 3 is…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I’ve ranted and raved about how much I love Zen Pinball 2 often enough in the past. But we have been waiting for a “proper” DLC pack for a while now, following a couple of individual table releases (Football and Dr Strange). Star Wars Pinball: Heroes…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. Child of Light is a special game, so the fact that it is coming to the PlayStation Vita is reason enough to celebrate. The game will release for $20 on July 2, and while it will be of course available for download, you’ll really want to…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Arcade cabinets and the NES became well-known for incredibly difficult shooting games, and they maintained their popularity over the years due to often brutal levels of difficulty and excellent visuals that combined to lure people in and keep the most competitive gamers coming back for more.…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. There’s a constant among games developed by indie outfit, Spiders; its games have heart. Works like Of Orcs and Men and Mars: War Logs are undeniably constrained by limited budgets, but the independence of the developer has meant that it has been free to build games…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. The franchise that caused one critic to have a meltdown without really understanding (or having played) it when it was released on the Nintendo 3DS earlier this year, Senran Kagura, is coming to PlayStation Vita. Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus is going to be much the same…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. Octodad: Dadliest Catch’s premise is, at its very core, inherently stupid. Playing as an octopus is already silly enough, but stuffing him into a cheap three-piece suit and tasking him with living a normal life all while continuing to pass off as a loving father is…
Read MoreReview by Brad L. There once was a time, in he 90’s, when I would frequent videogame arcades. Many of my peers were playing titles such as Time Crisis, Daytona USA and whichever iteration of Street Fighter was currently out. For me personally, I was always drawn to Bust-a-Move (or…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. As we established in our review of the PC version of Zombie Studio’s horror title, Daylight, it’s not the finest game ever made. It’s atmospheric and has some great ideas backing it, but in execution the game falls a bit flat. I agree with Harvard’s review…
