Video by Matt S. Newly released in English via Asian PlayStation Network stores (grab it on the Hong Kong store if you’re keen), Bullet Girls Phantasia is a new release that is legitimately mind-boggling in how spectacularly pervy it is. And yes, it’s also quite enjoyable, in that same B-grade…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Here’s a big dirty secret: I like Paladins. I know I rant on about shooters plenty, but there’s plenty about them that I can find enjoyable. When the action doesn’t take itself too seriously, and there’s a good mix of interesting characters and fun levels, I…
Read MoreReview by Tyler T. It’s been over 15 years since Treasure released its spiritual successor to Radiant Silvergun. As a SHMUP, Ikaruga proved divisive upon release due to its puzzle elements, but it’s these same dynamics that make it age so much better than many of its contemporaries. While many…
Read MoreNews by Matt S. World of Tanks is a pretty popular game, if you haven’t heard of it before. It’s a free-to-play tank-em-up featuring large battle maps and plenty of truly hardcore, dedicated players. It started out as a PC title, before making its way to console, and even mobile…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Have you ever read Georges Bataille’s work? Particularly his novel Story of the Eye? If not, it’s a useful way to understand and interpret a game like Gal*Gun 2. In fact, Gal*Gun 2 is the perfect example of so much of Bataille’s work and philosophy in…
Read MoreReview by Ginny W. We all probably remember where we were when we first saw the explosive early footage for Far Cry 5. Hot on the heels of a number of terrible decisions by the United States government’s latest elect and white nationalism crawling out of the woodwork all across…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Under a very, very specific set of circumstances, Bravo Team can be good. If you’ve got one of those PlayStation Aim gun peripherals (the ones that shipped with the excellent Farpoint last year), and you’re willing and able to play online multiplayer with someone else who…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Roguelike FPSers are a rather specific genre, but I do like them. If done well they’ll be fast paced, high action shooters, reminiscent of the Dooms and Heretics of old, and that random level design means that these games can be interesting to play and replay…
