No Straight Roads – Review

It’s somewhat fulfilling when art imitates life, when reality becomes immortalized in fictitious ways. From the creative minds of Wan Hazmer (Final Fantasy XV) and Daim Dziauddin (Street Fighter V), comes this fantastically magical, new indie game ‘No Straight Roads’, which targets the rise of EDM music and the subsequent

Mortal Shell – Review

Mortal Shell published by Playstack and developed by Cold Symmetry is an action, role-playing video game that really gives me mixed emotions as I’ve said countless times before “I’m not a fan of Dark Soul type games”. This game literally beat the crap out of me mentally making my hate

Relicta – Review

This first-person, physics-based puzzle game developed by Mighty Polygon and published by Ravenscourt is one challenge I dove into. Now it may be hard to believe, but I’m probably one of the few people that have never really played games like Portal or other physics/puzzle games. I’m not known for

Fall Guys: Ultimate Knockout – Review

Some of these battle royale style games can be a real hit and miss; some may be strangely addictive, where the hours just fly by, others can feel like you are just dragging your feet through a repetition of party style games, all of which start to feel oddly similar

Marvel’s Iron Man VR – Review

Ever since the movie premiered back in May 2008, Iron Man has been my favourite Marvel character. Not only is Tony Stark an incredibly cool billionaire playboy philanthropist, the thought of flying around clad in a near indestructible suit of armour always appealed to me. Needless to say, I was

Disintegration – Review

I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of robots and A.I., just the idea and imagery of a robot or android with it’s own intelligence adapting and learning enhancements, is an incredible concept. Didn’t help when movies like Terminator and Robocop came out and threw hardcore violence into the mix.
