List by Jim S. November is traditionally the time where the biggest games of the year are released, so that they can capitalise on the all-important Christmas sales period. This year is no different. There are so many big games being released in November that there is no possible way…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Whoever was involved in the visual direction of Shadow Warrior deserves a massive raise. There is no game that is more fundamentally beautiful on the PlayStation 4 than Shadow Warrior’s remake. I found myself spamming the “share” button on the PlayStation 4 controller with every new…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I feel a little sorry for Toys for Bob, the developers of the Skylanders franchise.
