Persona 5 Royal – Review

You’ve heard this line a million times before: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”, right? If you haven’t, the general idea behind the quote is that if something works, and it works well, don’t bother trying to fix it because odds are, you’ll end up breaking something that didn’t

The Outer Worlds – Review

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

Ghost Recon: Breakpoint – Review

I’ve always been a fan of open world games. Skyrim, Fallout, Grand Theft Auto, all games that have huge open worlds you can explore and a virtual treasure chest of things to discover. When Ubisoft released The Division and Ghost Recon: Wildlands, I spent countless hours roaming the environment, trying

The Surge 2 – Review

Here we go again… more clean underwear needed. As you may or may not know, I am a sook and scare easily. The Surge 2 just reinforced that fact. Based in a futuristic & dystopian city, The Surge 2 plants itself squarely in a time and place where Skynet rules

Devil’s Hunt – Review

Bear with me because this going to be a stretch hybrid. Have you ever wondered what Devil May Cry mixed with Darksiders with a very Miami Vice-esq protagonist would be like? (told you it was a stretch) but if you answered “YES” or “Hmm, that sounds strange yet cool” then

God Eater 3 (Nintendo Switch) – Review

I know when I hear the words “Bandai Namco” in our office, we are generally in for an action-packed RPG. God Eater 3 definitely lives up to that famous reputation. Being the obvious 3rd installment in this illustrious franchise, this hack and slash romp is a welcome port over to

Gato Roboto – Review

Ever wondered what would happen if you replaced ‘Samus’ from the ‘Metroid’ series with a cat? And say this cat had access to an impressive arsenal of giant robotic mech suits and weaponry, whilst roaming an isolate space planet? Sounds insane, yet awesome, right?! Well, Devolver Digital, the studio that

Days Gone – Review

I like to think my zombie apocalypse survival plan is pretty simple, but it assumes that I am in a shopping centre when it begins. Get into the ceiling; move around as quietly as possibly; scavenge what basic survival gear Australian shops contain and wait it out until the zombies

Guard Duty – Review

After my last review on the newly released indie game ‘Katana ZERO’, I mentioned how much I enjoy indie games that have a lot of passion and excitement behind them. How you can tell the team behind the upcoming creation is full to the brim of nervous, yet excited, energy

Grimshade – Review

It’s a win-some, lose-some chance with fund raising websites. Sometimes, the money doesn’t reach the required amount and a proposed product dwindles in the wind, swirling in hopes of being grounded and restarted. Other times, it pays off immensely, going way beyond what was required and smashing all required pledge
