Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst Collector’s Edition Is Stupid Expensive
Who exactly is buying these things? I used to love a good Collector’s Edition, but these days the prices are absurd and the contents utter pants, only pants are actually practical, useful things to have. Speaking of absurdity; EA. Or more precisely EA have today announced a Collector’s Edition for the forthcoming Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst…

The Minions Movie Review – Not Entirely Despicable
As a full-grown adult I have no problem admitting that I have a massive soft spot for animated movies. I love them.

The Skyrim Library: Volume 1 The Histories Book Review – History Homework? Ugh.
Hands up those of you who actually stopped and read the majority of books contained within Bethesda’s vast Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim? And no, briefly skimming some of them really doesn’t count.

The PC release of Batman: Arkham Knight has thus far been a darkly fascinating tale of stupidity, consumer victory and some more stupidity.

Halo: Hunters in the Dark Book Review – What’s A Book!? How Do You Play It!?
I’ve often had the unenviable task of patiently explaining to other gamers why I really just don’t care about the Halo series.

Star Wars: Battlefront To Have Microtransactions?
Eurogamer recently held a short and interesting interview with a member of DICE regarding their forthcoming Star Wars: Battlefront title. The interview wasn’t interesting because of how much information was revealed, though, but rather because of how evasive and completely generic it was. After fending off a question regarding why AT-ATs were on rails by…

Batman: Arkham Knight Appears To Be A Mess On PC, Outsourced Development To Blame?
Released just yesterday to critical acclaim Batman: Arkham Knight is already facing massive amounts of backlash as the PC version appears to suffer from horrendous performance and numerous other problems.
