My Friend Pedro (Xbox One) – Review

Blood. Bullets. Bananas? My Friend Pedro by Devolver Digital is back, this time available on Xbox AND in the Game Pass, and we couldn’t be more excited. This kick arse, twin stick, third person shooter is a cracking good time and it’s fabulous to see it now released on my

GTFO: Early Access – Hands On Preview

GTFO! Words that will frequent your gameplay thanks to the terrifying atmosphere of this new first person shooter come survival horror cooperative game. In a game where playing alone means certain death, you’ll want to heed the creators warning and play cooperatively with 3 of your friends. Even then, this

Need For Speed Heat – Review

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

Killer Queen Black – Review

Buy It, play it, you’ll love it! My review for Killer Queen Black is done now. Thanks, and goodnight! Well, maybe, I suppose I should tell you why… Ok then… Killer Queen Black is the console adaption of the arcade eSport game “Killer Queen”. Killer Queen Black has been rebuilt

Zunius – Review

The team at COAF Research have helped bring life back to the retro age, by releasing their debut title, ‘Zunius’. Described as a ‘Psychedelic, Rogue-Like Bullet Hell’, you’ll be rocketing around various alien planets, shooting your foes down until your heart’s content! So fire up your blasters as we dive

Destiny 2: Shadowkeep – Review

Shadowkeep, Destiny 2’s first expansion puts players up against The Nightmares. The Nightmares are essentially the ghosts of some of your favorite enemies from the past 5 years of the Destiny universe. The Nightmares are pretty much the same enemies we’ve all seen before since the series started with one

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

Borderlands 3 – Review

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

Hunt: Showdown – Review

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

Gears 5 – Review

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

Control – Review

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

Dragon Quest Builders 2 – Review

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.

7

Wolfenstein: Youngblood – Review

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?

9

Terraria – Review

I never had the chance to really get into building games such as Minecraft which is surprising because games that get the creative juices flowing have always piqued my interest. Due to the overwhelming number of children that flock to these communities, I will admit it also has scared me

9

My Friend Pedro – Review

If you know me as a gamer, I live for an in-depth, fleshed out story that takes my mind on a journey. The quite manic, split personality in me sometimes (…just sometimes…) likes to blindly and remorselessly gun down hombres in an explosion of gore and violence. ‘My Friend Pedro’

7

Blood & Truth – Review

I remember as a kid, running around the back yard pretending to be a soldier, or a police officer, carrying a stick or a big block of LEGO because I didn’t have toy guys. (My pocket money was spent on video games for the most part) I’d run around for

8

RAGE 2 – Review

Put on your pink warpaint, hair spray up that mohawk and dust off your ass-less chaps because RAGE 2 is finally here. Leave your dignity at the door because the rude and crude apocalyptic wasteland is back. Despite its name, RAGE 2 is nothing but pure enjoyment. Developed by Avalanche

Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 – Review

In this month alone, 2 highly anticipated looters and shooters dropped. One is doing well, while the other seemed to struggle from launch. The Division 2, the second in a franchise from Ubisoft has hit the shelves in a whirlwind, but it had me thinking what did it do so

6

Anthem – Review

I’m very hit and miss with grindy game play. Where as I was right into the ‘Diablo 3’ and ‘The Division’, even needing eye drops after a 14 hr session once, I totally missed ‘The Destiny’ train. I’d also like to point out I’m very hit and miss with Bioware

Crackdown 3 – Review

Crackdown 3 has been 9 years in the making and finally after much delay (it was originally due 2016) is finally here. I was absorbed in the first one because it’s concept of mass destruction as a super human was so unique and different and while I didn’t play the

7

Blue Rider – Review

The game has you playing around as a blue spaceship riding and guiding yourself through levels that are littered with enemies of the robotic kind. There are a significant number of different enemy types throughout the game all with their own little quirks and powers. Upon spending some quality time

Darksiders III – Review

I can’t believe how much of a mess Darksiders III is…… I have played previous titles on Xbox 360 which were fairly good games and I have played Darksiders 2 Deathinitive Edition which is published by Gunfire Games and developed by THQ Nordic, but this time around someone has dropped

Warframe – Review

“They were called Tenno. Warriors of blade and gun: masters of the Warframe armor. Those that survived the old war were left drifting among the ruins. Now they are needed once more.” – Lotus Warframe does an excellent job of making the player feel cool as you bullet-jump through the
