Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Eternal Darkness and Alone in the Dark are all games which have offered something to the videogame horror genre. They all take elements from each other, and some have continued to succeed and evolve, whereas others have failed. Alone in the Dark started it all, with fixed camera angles, puzzle-based exploration, […]
It’s a bit strange only having 6 games to review in this collection. Especially when you consider there have been a whopping 41 games on the first three collections I’ve reviewed! Still, is it a case of quality over quantity? Let’s find out. Battle Chess – 1990 I don’t play chess so it’s a little […]
Data East is a company I’m familiar with mainly due to their logo being visible on a lot of arcade games I used to play. There are some games I’ve played in this collection and some I haven’t, so I was excited to see how it compared to the other Evercade collections I’ve reviewed. Speaking […]
In this review I take a look at the Namco Museum Collection 1 for the Evercade. Whereas in my first review of the Atari Collection 1, I didn’t have a great deal of connection with the brand itself which probably affected my overall feeling towards it. I do have more in common with the Namco […]
Evercade Atari Collection 1 Review If you’ve listened to the latest episode of the ABCD of Gaming (and if you haven’t then why not?) you’ll have heard Adam talking about his brand-new purchase of the Evercade handheld console.

But, does this survival horror game lose something moving away […]
I find it hard to believe I’ve been playing Resident Evil games for 25 years. It seems like it was only yesterday when I was amazed/terrified by seeing a zombie slowly turn his head to face me after he’d munched on a bit of man flesh. How I shat myself when a group of hungry […]
If you think Creed: Rise to Glory is a feel-good movie about a porn star battling his crippling Viagra addiction, then you’d be sadly wrong. I’d also recommend you speak to a sex therapist as you’ve clearly got one thing on your mind! If, however you are keen to find out more about the PSVR […]
As someone who has been playing videogames for over 40 years, it’s fair to say there isn’t much I haven’t done whilst holding a joystick or controller. However, as I write this review, I’ve been wracking my brains and I don’t think I’ve ever played a game where I’ve controlled a shark. I’ve been a […]
