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…

Amiibo Festival is more proof of concept than a major release from Nintendo, so let’s get that out of the way from the outset; come into this expecting some kind of deep, lasting, rich experience and you’ll probably be disappointed. To its benefit it works really quite well, and carries…

Oh my. I had never experienced a David Cage-produced game before, and therefore was not entirely sure what to expect. After playing Beyond: Two Souls I have some games to catch up on now. Related reading: For a review of the original release on the PlayStation 3, check out Matt’s…

Minecraft/News/Wii U

A while back, the rumour mill started turning when an age-rating for Minecraft Wii U popped on some vigilant soul’s radar. A Nintendo Direct came and went, but no announcement was made concerning said port. Now, however, Wii U owners who have yet to experience what is probably one of…

Final Fantasy VII/News/Square Enix

Flight is a more difficult mechanic to execute within a game than many pause to think on. By its very nature flight implies freedom, scale, and a limitless room for exploration. A good game that makes flight a central mechanic should offer a sensation of soaring through the air, of…

Review: Football Manager 2016 (PC)

December 7, 2015
Football Manager 2016/management/PC/PC Review/Reviews/Sega/simulation/sports game/Sports Interactive

If you are looking for hands-on action, Football Manager 2016 will likely disappoint, because as the name of the game should indicate, this is all about running a football team, and not running around on the field personally.
