LAST CHANCE! Win one of FIVE RIG 800 PRO headsets & Stranger Of Paradise (+DLC)

Aussie readers of DDNet, have we got a treat for you! (Note: this competition is only open to Australian residents. Apologies, overseas friends, but I’m sure we’ll have another contest for you soon) Stranger Of Paradise is one of the finest, and smartest, games in Square Enix’s storied series. As we wrote in our 4.5/5 review: Do you know that…

Why I can’t review Martha is Dead

I don’t believe topics should be ignored in games, but I do believe that certain issues need to be handled delicately; things like mental illness, sexual assault, and war are not topics to be taken lightly. LKA is, to me, best known for approaching some very sensitive topics in The…

Review: The Elder Scrolls: Blades (Nintendo Switch)

Review by Matt S.  I know I’m late to the party with this one, but The Elder Scrolls: Blades has just released on Nintendo Switch, and as I had not played the mobile release previously, this is all new to me. Usually, I avoid reviewing free-to-play games, as the “purchase…

News by Matt S.  Destroy All Humans! remake is coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC (via Steam) on July 28, marking the return of a hugely popular comedy gold series that has been on hiatus for far too long. Based on the trailer, though, people who enjoyed the…

Opinion by Matt S. With COVID-19 effectively shutting down global sport, the sporting world is running on two tiers right now; there are the sports that are pulling even further ahead, as they have large communities that are growing larger thanks to the presence of high-quality video game adaptations of…

Review: Super Mega Baseball 3 (Nintendo Switch)

Arcade/Nintendo Switch/Reviews/sports game/Super Mega Baseball/Super Mega Baseball 3/Switch Review

Review by Matt S. Super Mega Baseball 3 reminds me of the baseball games I used to really love playing back on the Nintendo 64 and early PlayStation eras, when they were both accessible (thus making them good for multiplayer sessions) and yet also a serious effort to do the…

Wasteland 3 gets its first developer diary

News by Matt S. You know you’re getting closer to the release of a game when the developer diaries start popping up. They’re basically extended trailers, though with little tidbits of “behind the scenes” showing players how the game was developed, and mini-“interviews” with the creators. Wasteland 3 is a…

The Eternal Castle: Difficulty-as-Art

Video by Matt S. I really didn’t think I’d love The Eternal Castle. Nothing about it is a “me” kind of game. And yet… This thing is so damned artful in everything that it does that it’s one of the smartest and most interesting games I’ve played in quite some…

Review by Matt S. I’ll never finish The Eternal Castle. The level of skill that it demands of the player is so far beyond what I’ll ever be able to do that I know, right now and without a shadow of a doubt, that it would be simply impossible for…

Review: What The Golf? (Nintendo Switch)

May 15, 2020

Review by Matt S. It claims to be a “golf game for people that hate golf,” and that is a good summary of the kind of irreverent humour that What The Golf? aims for. It’s not really golf at all though. Rather it’s a silly little physics puzzle game, good…
