  • Dead Island Definitive Edition (Review) Playstation 4

    Posted by on August 26, 2016 under PS4, Reviews
    Released for Playstation 3 almost five years ago, Dead Island by developer Techland reinvented the survival horror genre with its open world concept and RPG-based gameplay. While the first game was well received by gamers, its stand-alone expansion, Dead Island Riptide, was criticized for lacking new features that would have distinguished it from the original. Definitive Collection for Playstat... more.
  • The King of Fighters XIV (Review) Playstation 4

    Posted by on August 24, 2016 under PS4, Reviews
    Just when it seemed like Capcom's Street Fighter V was reason enough to purchase a Playstation 4, SNK (formally SNK-Playmore) enters the 'competitive' fighter arena by releasing the fourteenth installment of its critically-acclaimed fighting game series, The King of Fighters XIV. In recent years, SNK has revamped its classic KOF IP not once, but twice on Playstation 3. The King of Fighters XII ... more.
  • I Want to Be Human! (Review) PC

    Posted by on July 26, 2016 under PC, Reviews
    I want to be human by Sinclair Strange is an odd love story between a vampire who uses a shotgun instead of her teeth and her boyfriend who has been turned into a hat. Yes, you really just read that. Smile Tech, which is a giant corporation, is looking for the secret to immortality and uses the couple as experiments to further their research. All of the backstory is in a comic strip format that ex... more.
  • Not A Hero: Super Snazzy Edition (Review) Xbox One

    Posted by on July 26, 2016 under Reviews, Xbox One
    So, fellow gamers; I bet you're asking yourselves, "But Sean, given what we now know of this BunnyLord character, what do we do in this game as the anti-hero hero?" Well that answer is fairly simple (or at least simple-sounding): to unreasonably use reasonable force in a sweet mix of run-and-gun gameplay and cover-based shootouts. NAH's intuitive quick-snap cover system allows you to slide, roll, ... more.

  • Speedrunners (Review) PC

    Posted by on July 14, 2016 under PC, Reviews
    I have had the pleasure of playing Speedrunners by DoubleDutch games, and it is a blast. The game is simple; defeat the other four players in your group and using dirty tactics is encouraged. From the first moments when you open the menu to the race, you are sucked into this highly competitive and fun world. The music is straight out of a 60s superhero show and the character design is amazing. ... more.
  • Chronicles of Teddy: Harmony of Exidus (Review) Playstation 4

    Posted by on July 14, 2016 under PS4, Reviews
    The Chronicles of Teddy: Harmony of Exidus by developer LookAtMyGame is a complicated, but unique action-adventure RPG that combines beautiful pixel art, Castlevania-like gameplay, and perplexingly difficult puzzles into a single, cohesive gameplay experience. As the game's female protagonist, the player -- along with a teddy bear that contains the spirit of a beloved king named Tarant -- must fre... more.
  • Dark Souls III (Review) Playstation 4

    Posted by on July 14, 2016 under PS4, Reviews
    The most anticipated game since Grand Theft Auto 5 is finally here, and it continues with the dark, gloomy atmosphere and challenging gameplay that its predecessors are known for. Dark Souls III plays just like its predecessors; the controls, gameplay and on-screen GUI  feel comfortable and familiar. The brutal, fast-paced gameplay is still present, making Dark Souls III the most unforgivable ... more.
  • Guilty Gear Xrd -Relevator- Review (Playstation 4)

    Posted by on July 14, 2016 under PS4, Reviews
    For all intent and purposes, the Guilty Gear franchise continues to be the bastion of modern day 2D fighting games on Sony's next gen console. Released last year on Playstation 4, Guilty Gear XRD -Sign- -- powered by Epic's Unreal 3 Engine - delivered a much-needed graphical upgrade to the series. The game itself was also enhanced by a dynamic camera system that followed the action from different ... more.
  • Dungeon Of The Endless Review (Xbox One)

    Posted by on May 25, 2016 under Reviews, Xbox One
    It's a known fact that I love a good dungeon crawler. And even though I love to hack and slash with the best of them, I also enjoy taking on a different experience from a different perspective, with a different twist -- and "Dungeon of the Endless" delivers just that. DOTE is quite the "rogue-like-meets-tower-defense-like" game, developed and published by Amplitude Studios. It was first released b... more.
