Review by Brad L. I’ve hold the most recent Tomb Raider reboot series in high regard. While the games are often compared to the Uncharted series, the Tomb Raider series has done a much better job of creating a sense of exploration and wonder, which I’ve found the Uncharted series…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. Just about everything a basketball enthusiast could want can be found in NBA 2K19. There are numerous options and modes, with excellent on-court action and outstanding presentation values. There are still a handful of quirky things that occur on the court, and 2K’s truly horrible approach…
Read MoreReview by Nick H. The NBA Live series has had a long and bumpy road in recent years, but it has been fascinating to see this one-proud franchise have to do a bit of soul searching and try to rediscover itself. The process has no doubt been challenging, but the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Just the other day in a review of Victor Vran’s recent Nintendo Switch release, I mentioned that it’s hard for a “Diablo clone” to step out of the shadows of Diablo. The game named the genre for a reason. Even the better efforts tend to stick…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Dragon Quest XI is what many Final Fantasy fans wished that the numbered Final Fantasies would be. Not that the Final Fantasy XIII trilogy and XV, representing the last decade or so of single player Final Fantasy, were in any way bad. It’s just that they…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Games Workshop, the company that creates the Warhammer tabletop game, has adopted one of the strangest licensing strategies after THQ – its previous partner and exclusive license holder – declared bankruptcy.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Just think about this; the Yakuza series was once very, very niche outside of Japan. Now, this is the fourth title released in English in the past two years. Something has clicked with players, and SEGA has been ready to capitalise in a big way. Related…
