As you may have already guessed, I am a pretty big fan of anything Star Wars related. I grew up watching the original movies on VHS and I’ve played most Star Wars games that have been released (there’s quite a few). One of my all time favourite games was Battlefront,

Star Ocean: First Departure R is an RPG developed by Tri-Ace and published by Square Enix and is a remaster of the original ‘First Departure’ that was originally released in Japan only, under then motif ‘Star Ocean’. In the ‘Star Ocean’ series there are five games, with three spin off

Where do I start. What started off as a well respected movie by adults and children alike, followed in the footsteps of many cherished movies with a rebooted; updated for newer audiences with a few tweaks to keep up with the times. Evolving from a movie about a board game,

For me the Halo series has always been a huge part of my childhood and early adult life. I’m a huge fan of story driven, FPS games and the Halo Saga is one such series that has always had a place for me, but over the years I have become

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… These are words that almost everyone will recognise. Every movie; Every game; Every book; Anything Star Wars related starts off with this sentence that has captivated audiences since October 27, 1977. These ten words have had a huge impact on

Disgaea 4: Complete + is the updated and remastered version of Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten. Created by Nippon Ichi Software, this game along with the previous games in this series is a tactical RPG, with a very mobile feel to it. The story of Disgaea 4 is a little

I think it’s fair to say that the past couple of Need for Speed games haven’t really felt like they’ve lived up to the older games in the franchise. Personally, I loved the days of Underground, Most Wanted and Carbon, so when EA announced Heat, my eyes lit up and

There have been a lot of zombie themed games coming out recently, and with Zombieland: Double Tap being released in cinemas, it is no surprise that someone was going to jump on that bandwagon. High Voltage Software was just the company to do so, releasing Zombieland Double Tap – Road

Call of bloody Duty is back, and as usual it is an experience of pure love and pure pain for me. Now, while Black Ops 4 felt like a good placeholder, this game is what the real C.O.D players have been waiting for. Back are the excited call outs, back

Given how much I adore the Fallout franchise, it often comes as a surprise to people when they find out I never played Fallout: New Vegas. The main reason for this, is that I never really felt like anyone but Bethesda could pull off a game like that. Having said

I’m normally a big fan of dungeon crawlers. Making my way across the map, exploring every nook and cranny looking for that epic weapon, or that one armour piece that makes you resistant to all damage types. Leveling up a character and choosing my own destiny has a huge appeal

When there’s something strange, in the neighborhood, who you gonna call? If you don’t know the answer to that question, then you need to rectify this quickly! The Ghostbusters franchise was a cult classic for me growing up; falling in love with not just the movie, but also the short

Stela developed by SkyBox Labs, not known for horroresque type platformers, is a beautifully grim tale following our hero, Stela, who must face both physical and mental demons through a desolate and decaying world. Anyone that knows me, knows these thriller type, indie creepy games are as far as I’ll

There are so many looter – shooter games available these days that we are spoiled for choice. From Destiny to The Division and even Anthem, all of them offer a vast amount of loot to be found and a seemingly limitless amount of potential to build the character the way

Clean underwear, that’s what you will need when playing Hunt: Showdown. I am pretty sure I soiled mine just in the tutorial! Hunt: Showdown reeks with elements of games such as Resident Evil, DayZ & even a bit of an old favorite of mine, Hexen. While the horror genre is

It’s finally here. Gears 5 by The Coalition is out now and available to the masses, and i’m going to come out and say it right off the bat, Gears 5 is definitely one of the best installments in the Gears of War franchise. Let’s start with the campaign. In

Blowfish studios, the independent, Australian video game publisher are back, not long either, after dropping a previous extremely fun title, ‘SubDivision Infinity DX’. I was given the pleasure of playing and reviewing that too which is available on their website, so I was definitely excited to get my hands on

It’s become common knowledge around the office that I really enjoy anything relating to the supernatural. I mean, you just have to look at what I use to wear in my old clubbing days to see that I’m a little strange like that. Fortunately for me, 505 Games has recently

What is with the flood of 80’s inspired games as of late? I have literally reviewed like nine or ten in the last 6 months and it seems like the fad is not dying soon. It seems with the success of television shows in the likes of Stranger Things it

I never really understood the fad that was Minecraft. I mean, sure… digging stuff up, building things and wacking enemies with a wooden sword was kind of fun. While there are some incredible creations out there, there is really only so much you can do. Mine, build, kill and survive.

This little gem I’ve been toiling away with recently is from Sydney based Publisher, Blowfish Studios. When I was offered this to review, I was expecting an indie style game but what I got was a little under 2Gb of pure fun! Space! The final frontier… Or is it? I

Wolfenstein: YoungBlood appears to sit comfortably right at home, warm and familiar, but in the same sense feels distant and cold, almost enstranged. This game has the internet divided at the moment, people generally don’t adjust well to change but how much change is justifiable? And is it innovative change?
