Ape Out – Review

Man, games these days are generally too complicated. This is neither a bad thing nor a good thing, but I find when they are too complicated they become frustrating and it just rips the enjoyment out of it. Dropping this violent, blood-soaked romp in my lap, Ape Out by Digital

Tech Support: Error Unknown – Review

Reminds me of ‘Papers, Please’ but in a tech support world Aiming for a top job in the organization, the game sets somewhat high standards for the player. Tech support haves you make decisions rapidly after taking into account of all likely outcomes and estimating the route most likely to

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

Jump Force – Review

I remember back in my early days getting out of bed early before school an dragging myself in front of TV to watch the latest episode of DragonBall Z, Naruto, One Piece and many others. I’d often think about how cool it would be like if they shared the same

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

Nacon Daija Arcade Stick – Review

I don’t know about you, but I feel some games play better on an arcade system. The likes of Tekken, Mortal Kombat and platformers like MegaMan all seem to play better when you’re handling a simple stick and a number of buttons as opposed to a controller. The games feel

Project Warlock – Review

An unrepentant retro FPS adventure with mild RPG elements, this is a real work of love in the vein of Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and even Cybermage. Play a mysterious gun-toting warlock as you travel from place to place, destroying evil and finding weapons. Shoot things, cast spells, and cause mayhem.

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

Katamari Damacy Reroll – Review

Katamari Damacy is in no way a new game. Hitting the shelves back in 2004, this cute, third person, puzzle game quickly grew in popularity and established a cult following straight out the gate. Now, while this statement seems quite contradictory, this game is a bit of a modern classic

Big Ant Studios are an Australian crew who have published and developed games such as Ashes Cricket, AO Tennis and they’ve even made a mobile game for BBL, and ever since their mobile BBL game I’ve craved a console version. So what’s Big Bash Boom? It’s the coolest damn cricket

Gear.Club Unlimited 2 Review

Not many people know this guys, but I secretly love racing games. They are definitely my guilty pleasure, especially arcade-yish ones. They calm me, since so many games are all about action, flashing lights and all the bells and whistles now a days. So, I was more than happy to

Ride 3 Review

Milestone S.r.l. have published and developed many racing games with a mix of both cars and bikes though their recent titles have mostly being bikes. RIDE 3 is the latest and it’s packed full of nothing else but bikes. RIDE 3 isn’t low on bikes and the many brands that

Here’s yet another game that ain’t no spring chicken, Screencheat has existed for 4 years, first on PC than Xbox One and PS4 before finally making its way on the Nintendo Switch. The catch phrase for the game is “Split screen shooter where everyone’s invisible” sounds crazy right? But who

Sega Mega Drive Classics Review

Aww retro gaming. The key to my heart. While my gaming life is all about keeping up with what is the new, hip, ‘it’ title, I will always go back to a good ‘ole’ classic game when I have the time. After all they did build the foundation of my
