Black Sails: “XXI” Review
In the midst of a starving and stranded crew, Silver clashes with Flint over the best course forward.
Rise of the Tomb Raider Review
With Lara Croft making a triumphant return in 2013 with Crystal Dynamics’ reboot, we were eager to see how the new concept had evolved with Rise of the Tomb Raider. And while it is clear that the studio has taken in all the feedback from their previous effort, it’s also clear that this isn’t a dramatic departure in terms of concept and structure. At its core it’s an action-...[Read More]
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros. Review
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga was first unleashed on the world back in 2003. It was first game in Nintendo’s RPG series starring both Mario Brothers, and the third in the long line of this role-playing series that started back in 1996 with The Legend of Seven Stars on the SNES, and was followed by the much more famous Paper Mario on N64 in 2000. With the support of Alpha Dream, who’...[Read More]
Gravity Rush Remastered Review
The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. Even though PlayStation 4 is a lot more powerful than the Vita can ever hope to be, the remaster crew at Bluepoint Games have decided to stay as true to the original Gravity Rush as possible. That means the game shows signs of aging, but still contains all the creativity that enthralled Vita owners back in 2012. To fly above a city seldom feels a...[Read More]
The Witcher 3 : Wild Hunt Review
The Witcher 3: Witch Hunt feels like the next step in that evolution, and while not every part of the RPG comes together to satisfy all gamers, there’s enough here to see clearly where things are progressing. Available for the PS4, Xbox One and PC, Witcher 3 is still based largely on combat. But there’s a surprising level of complexity behind it, and you can go about each fight as you ...[Read More]
WWE 2K16 Review
Professional wrestling is a funny one: here’s a so-called sport that built its world on theatricality, on the showmanship of its acrobatic performers acting out massive fantasies of gladiatorial duels and overly dramatic contests. Aside from the occasional unfortunate mishap, no one is ever injured and it’s all tightly stage-managed. So how do you translate that all to the video game world? For 2K...[Read More]
Batman Arkham Knight Review
Is Batman Arkham Knight the best super hero game ever created ? Back in 2009 Rocksteady Studios released Batman Arkham Asylum and like many I thought it was another bad licensed super hero game. That was until i played it and thought finally someone created a good Batman game that made you feel like Batman. So when Batman Arkham City came out in 2011 it was a day 1 purchase for me. It was an amazi...[Read More]
The Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone DLC Review
An immortal with a heart of stone, a mysterious demi-god, a cursed prince, and a grumpy Witcher. CD Projekt Red pulls out all the stops in the first expansion for The Witcher 3, Hearts of Stone. The Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone takes us back to when we were younger. Buying an expansion for a much-loved game was almost as exciting as getting a brand new one. We were always eager for more of the same,...[Read More]
Fallout 4 Review
The Fallout series is immensely popular and for the most part the games have been impeccable. But as Fallout 4 was presented at E3 the thing that probably got people just as excited as the prospect of the game itself was the fact that it was coming out this year. Just five months after its announcement we’re ready to hand out our verdict on the game. Having spent a majority of our waking hou...[Read More]
Amplitude Review
Rhythm action games were once big business, with every man and his dog owning a copy of Guitar Hero in the mid-noughties. There was scarcely a party that didn’t involve epic battles fought using plastic peripherals and well-timed button presses. Guitar Hero won over critics and players alike and at one time it was more than just a game, it was a cultural institution seeing enough success to ...[Read More]
Regression Review
Ethan Hawke and Emma Watson try to conjure satanic scares in this mundane thriller.
Galavant: Season 2 Review
Galavant's second season combined the silly with the profound and served it all with a side of music.
