• Griefhelm Review – All Grief?

    Griefhelm is what you get when you play Nidhoog and reckon there should be considerably more cutting off of limbs and decapitations. One man developing army Johnny Dale Lonack has put together this entire game on his own, a feat worthy of admiration. And I want to be clear on that, because the tough thing…

  • Marvel’s Avengers Beta (Demo) Impressions

    The “beta” (Read; demo) for Crystal Dynamics forthcoming Avengers game was open to everyone to play over the weekend, so I jumped in and spent some time smashing stuff as the Hulk, flying around as Iron-Man, kicking ass as Black Widow and generally avoiding playing as the annoying Kamala Khan as much as possible. With…

  • Ghost of Tsushima Review – An Honorable End

    “Wake the fuck up Samurai, we have a city to burn.” Ah wait, that’s the wrong game. Despite not featuring the shining excellence of Keenu Reeves, being overshadowed by The Last of Us Part 2 and getting considerably less attention from Sony than Naughty Dog’s long-awaited disappointment, Ghost of Tsushima has ended up being a…

  • My Ghost of Tsushima Screenshots, Because This Game Is Beautiful

    ‘m away to put the finishing touches to my review for Ghost of Tsushima, just a mere month after it launched. Because obviously I’m the fastest reviewer on the planet who always gets their work out on time. Ah ha ha. Ha. *sobs* Anyway, I was in the process of deciding which screenshots to use…

  • Weekend Whammy: Ghost of Tsushima, Paper Mario & More

    Welcome back to another Weekend Whammy! And this one is even on the weekend! On this week’s dose of nonsense I’m going to talk lock down, the Horizon: Zero Dawn PC port being a bit rough, Ghost of Tsushima being awesome and skateboarding in Death Stranding.

  • Hellpoint Review – Space Souls

    It’s weird to think that From Software have managed to create a whole new genre of action game, yet that’s exactly what they did with Demon’s Souls, Bloodborne and the Dark Souls trilogy. Hard as nails combat, exploration, baffling stories and a willingness to invest a lot of time are just so of the things…

  • Death Stranding (PC) Review – Or How Your Parents Went To School Every Day

    The classic fetch quest is a staple of gaming, typically found in RPGs that want to pad out their length by sending players scurrying back and forth carrying useless tat. In the case of Death Stranding however, the entire game is a seemingly never-ending series of fetch quests. It’s like Kojima only just discovered them,…

  • Destroy All Humans Review – Worth Probing Deeper?

    We live in a time where all sorts of games are getting a chance to be remastered, remade or even to get a sequel. Some make sense, and some are genuinely surprising choices. I’d say Destroy All Humans is the second one. Originally released in 2005 it did reasonably well with a Metacritic score of…

  • Weekend Whammy: DESTROY ALL HUMANS! And Death Stranding

    It’s time for another Weekend Whammy my friends, and this week I’m going to be talking about Death Stranding, Destroy All Humans! and Ubisoft’s implosion. I mean, I will be if I can get my head on straight. With some of the restrictions lifting my youngest niece was able to come around and stay for…

  • The Last of Us Part 2 SPOILER Review – The BIG Review

    The Internet is never short on people going back and forth over games. However, the release of The Last of Us Part 2 might be the most divided and chaotic I’ve ever seen, with what feels like an all-out war raging between critics and gamers, and between gamers and gamers. Few games have ever warranted…
