Fade to Silence Preview

Black Forest Games brings us this post-apocalyptic RPG - here are my first impressions. EGX Rezzed 2019 was awesome, and one of the games that piqued my interest was Fade to Silence. I am an absolute sucker for the post-apocalyptic genre. My special skills include the entire Fallout franchise… so I had to see what …

Metro Exodus Review

Metro Exodus has you being shot at on trains. It has you fighting on trains. It has you attempting to be stealthy while being bombarded with mutated creatures on train tracks in near total darkness while battling for oxygen. This is still a significantly more pleasant experience than getting on a f*cking Scotrail train from …

Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII review

There are three certainties in life. Death, taxes and a yearly Call of Duty release. What is never certain is the quality of that Call of Duty release. Does Treyarch's 2018 effort match up with the Modern Warfare classics of the past? Or is it back to the dark days of advanced warfare? I've spent …

Soul Calibur VI Review

The Soul Calibur series has been on a long Hiatus since the catastrophe that was Soul Calibur V. A six-year hiatus to be exact. So when Bandai Namco announced the next instalment at The Game Awards back in 2017. Everyone went wild. Even before there was any gameplay shown one phrase uttered by a developer …

This is the Police 2 Review

This is the Police 2 is a rather bizarre mix of genres wrapped up in a Police force shaped package from THQ Nordic. In one place you have a narrative driven, dramatic visual novel. You have an intense, decision making management simulation. You have a high stakes turn based battle role-playing game. There are even …

Snakebyte has entered the market with two products, one for Xbox One and …

Life is Strange 2 – Episode 1 “Roads” – Review

Back in 2015, a small French company called DontNod released, though Square Enix, the first episode of what would become one of the most beloved games in recent memory. A game that soon garnered a very loyal fan base and wasn't shy in challenging our moral compasses or taking on difficult subject matters. It was …

Gamescom 2018 preview: GRIP Combat Racing is not only supremely fun, it features the coolest logo of 2018

I'll let you in on a secret: I have never been a big racing game fan. When people mention 'classics' like Gran Turismo, Destruction Derby, Rollcage, F-zero or Need for Speed Underground I usually just shrug and ask them if they've played Hogs of War. In recent years my habits have slowly been changing. Mario …

Strange Brigade Review

From Oxford based Rebellion we have Strange Brigade, a very British third-person shooter with a strong tinge of Indiana Jones. Rebellion was previously best known for the Sniper Elite series which explains this title's historical roots. This isn't some boring historical retrospective, you'll be fending off giant scorpions, mummies, minotaurs and pretty much any other …

Guns, Gore and Cannoli 2 Review

Guns, Gore and Cannoli 2 ticks all the right boxes for me and I couldn't wait to get into reviewing the game. My all time favorite games are side-scrolling arcade platformers with the non stop action and this definitely looks like that kind of game. I am also a bit of a Mafia buff and …

Gamescom 2018: The Surge 2 gameplay preview

The Surge and I had a complex relationship.

However, I still felt let down. For everything The Surge did well it disappointed …

Devil’s Hunt Gameplay and Gamescom preview

At Gamescom, I played a lot of games. For some, it was hard to differentiate. Some will likely struggle to stand out. While playing the 1C Company's Devil's Hunt a developer from Layopi Games sat down on the couch beside me. From there he not only talked me through the demo, he also talked. This …
