Let me make things clear from the start of this review. Konami are responsible for making some of my all-time favourite video games! My childhood was filled with days playing titles such as Batman Returns, Green Beret, TMNT: Turtles in Time, and Sunset Riders to name a few. Let’s be honest, I could list dozens of […]
Can a video game featuring psychosis and mental health at the core of its story treat the subject matter respectfully yet also be entertaining? I’ve had my eye on Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice since 2015. I attended a presentation at Eurogamer Expo (EGX) featuring developer Ninja Theory. Commercial Director Dominic Matthews chatted about their vision for […]
Well this was a pleasant surpise..Rewind a bit. Now I am not a young man, true I am not a fossil of humanity riddled with dust but nor am I a sprightly young buck. Due to being this age I can remember arcades though, proper ones. Well sort of. I am not talking about the […]
This is not a full review as I’m still playing through the game. It’s more a first impression of the game. Detroit Become Human is the latest game from Quantic Dreams, and after their previous games, I think they have finally got it spot on. The game is centred around three playable characters. All three […]
I am a dolphin on a mission. Heading to the surface I pop my head out of the water and look at the man stood on the edge of the ocean. ‘Squueeak squeeeaky click click squeak‘ (‘Something is wrong my friend, the water levels are rising’) The man bends down and replies: ‘Hi Flipper, would […]
Trying new things is good. Unless you are a lion trying a cabbage diet, in which case trying that specific new thing is somewhat ridiculous. Table of Tales : The Crooked Crown, henceforth shortened to ToT to save my fingers, is a new thing for me, a genre I have not really dabbled in. So […]
Spider-Man returns with a brand-new story called The City That Never Sleeps. But how does the downloadable content (DLC) stack up against the main game? I’m sure if you’ve already checked out my review of Spider-Man (and if you haven’t then click here) you’ll know that I absolutely loved it! I was keen to carry […]
I think it’s fair to say that 2018 was another good year for PS4 exclusives. Detroit: Become Human received mostly positive reviews despite being a David Cage game. The incredible God of War showed old, and new fans, there was more to Kratos than ripping heads off and a shagging mini-game. Could Spider-Man round off […]
Nigel Havers dressed as Fantastic Mr Fox, very charming.A room full of snake charmers, yep pretty charming.But not as charming as this. When I first heard of Ghost Giant I had a stupid yet logical thought. I wondered how no-one knew who this giant was. If a ghost is simply a non-corporeal version of a […]
I mustn’t compare this to Hotline Miami, I mustn’t mention Hotline Miami, if I don’t mention Hotline Miami I’ll be fine..bugger. Right, start again. A demon and an angel walk into a bar and order a flaming sambuca and a glass of water. The barkeep at this particular establishment is an angry sort and mocks […]
