The Ys series had its first instalment 28 years ago in 1987. It was here where the reoccurring star of the Ys series, Adol Cristin, was introduced. Throughout the various Ys games, Adol embarks on countless adventures full of exploration, battles, and dialogue making each instalment fresh and full of...
Titan Souls
I like to consider myself an experienced gamer, having played all sorts of games at all types of difficulty. Once and a while, though, a game comes along that is so challenging it has me raging and spewing obscenities… yet I cannot put it down. This is one of those...
Goat Simulator
Okay I get it. Goat Simulator is supposed to be stupid, broken, glitchy and perhaps nothing more than a novelty gag. The developers almost advertise it as such. It’s not a game you take seriously, even if you tried. It’s a game you’ll Twitch or YouTube all the ridiculous things...
If you’re a fan of MK at all you’ll no doubt know that the franchise went off track a bit after its first few entries. Fans always looked forward to the next game in the series but many time felt let down by the final product. When MK9 was released...
We Are Doomed
You are a fuzzy eyeball flying around in space. You move with the Left stick, swimming like some sort of amoeba-alien. Strange things appear, flying straight towards you – are they aliens? Smart missiles? Possessed guppies? All you know is, they want to catch you. They want to hurt you....
Aside from some texture upgrades, Scholar of the First Sin boasts enhanced lighting, changed enemy/item positions, and all of the DLC previously released. While I was expecting bigger changes to enemy locations that what was delivered, I was ultimately very impressed with what was done to Dark Souls 2.
Less than 11-months since the release of MLB 14, Sony’s best-selling baseball franchise is back on the PS4. With less than a year of development time under their belt I have to admit I am went in highly skeptical. I mean how much could the team at SCEA San Diego...
I admit it, I love fairytales. Those stories that were told to you as kids about the three little pigs, Jack and the beanstalk, Pinocchio, and – of course – Little Red Riding Hood, have stuck around in today’s modern world in some form or fashion, including video-game interpretations. New...
I certainly wasn’t looking forward to playing the sequel to a game I never bothered completing. No game is worse to review than an average one, and that’s exactly what I was expecting out of Revelations 2. Ever since 2002, this franchise has been a slot-machine of people, time and...
LA Cops
It is often said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. What isn’t said quite so often is that the imitator proved to be better than the original. There’s no question that LA Cops took much of its inspiration from the wildly popular Hotline Miami. A top down, isometric...
When Hotline Miami appeared on the scene in 2012, I was floored. It was brutal, fast-paced, and most importantly, fun. Containing a level of violence and brutality on par with Manhunt, players were instructed by eerie phone calls to go to locations and murder everyone inside. Kill everyone faster and...
OlliOlli2 is a sequel to last year’s indie hit OlliOlli, a side-scrolling skateboarding game that impressed a lot of people with its simple-yet-addictive gameplay. OlliOlli2 builds on the strengths of its predecessor, delivering another smooth, polished experience that packs a surprising amount of fun into a tiny package. You will...
