I didn’t play the first Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl so can’t really comment on any improvements in gameplay, characters, etc, and despite not being a huge fan of “fighting” games, I have enjoyed many a session on the Super Smash Bros series of games with my son…of which this game shares a lot of common ground.First […]
I’ll be perfectly honest and say that I’d never even heard of the original Ghostrunner game, which is not surprising really when my fave video game genres are racing and RPGs, and those are what I mostly keep an eye open for.So what was it about Ghostrunner 2 that peaked my interest when we were […]
I have to admit that I knew nothing at all about Trepang2, so went into this not knowing what to expect…and I was very pleasantly surprised by how much I’ve enjoyed the experience.An amalgam of Max Payne, F.E.A.R, and the most ballsy and bloody all out action/sci-fi movie you could think of, Trepang2 had me […]
Having played (and reviewed) Soedesco’s previous Truck Driver game, I was intrigued (and hesitantly a little excited) to experience their new current gen trucking title “Truck Driver the American Dream”…which I have to admit after playing it has pushed me to write a review dominated by the word “but”.TDtAD is better than the original Truck […]
Last year I reviewed Taito Milestones. Looking back at my review, whilst I appreciated having the opportunity to play some fairly obscure Taito games, overall, it was difficult to recommend a package where there were only a couple of standout titles and everything else was average. I was also critical of the lack of presentation […]
I’ve been a fan of American Football since 1982 (full story here) and became totally addicted to Head Coach on the Spectrum in 1986, playing it for MANY hours over the following years. Other American Football games came and went, with NFL Head Coach 09 being another standout for me, along with ESPN NFL 2K5 and […]
Although racing games aren’t my first choice when it comes to selecting a genre of video games, I am partial to burning some rubber every now and then. Sega Rally stands the test of time as one of my favourite racing games, and more recently Dirt 5, and Hotshot Racing have provided me with a sense […]
I bought and played Truck Driver on PS4 on its release back in 2019, and while being aware of its shortcomings and gameplay quirks, I still had a fairly enjoyable time with it…though the erratic driving of the A.I. cars always gave me the road rage that I never suffer from in real life. Jump […]
Dredge is the debut game from developers Black Salt Games, and if this is any indication of what they are capable of, then I’ll be watching their output very closely from now on as I am absolutely loving my time with this game.The wonderful branching narrative begins with a fisherman who arrives at the island […]
The 1980’s, movies and video games: 3 of my passions for many years now, so when we were offered a video game for review that begins in the 80’s where you assume the role of the head of your own movie studio, I was of course immediately intrigued.The premise of it all is a simple […]
