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: Elex II (Sony PlayStation 5)

I’m not sure there’s ever a precisely right time to release a…

Review: Gran Turismo 7 (Sony PlayStation 5)

Grip Games/Jet Car Stunts/Racing Game/Reviews/Sony PlayStation Vita/Vita Review

Review by Brad L. When I was a young lad, I had a Commodore 64. On that Commodore 64 I had about 300 games that my mum and dad had a family friend get (totally legally) for me to play. Of these 300 odd games, I believe I managed to…

action/Bayonetta/Bayonetta 2/controversy/hack and slash/Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Platinum Games/Reviews/transgressive/Wii U Review

Review by Matt S. A tall, beautiful woman stands in the middle of a circle of angelic beings. With guns in both hands and the heels of her shoes, she is a whirling dervish of death, tearing apart the angels with impunity. The size of these creatures is irrelevant as…

Anime review: Nisemonogatari (DVD)

October 30, 2014
anime/anime review/DVD/fan service/Monogatari/Nisemonogatari

Review by Matt S. Circadas chirp in the background as the camera cuts sharply from one angle to the next, as the scene is set of a typical warm, humid day in suburban Japan. And indoors there’s a brother and sister that have set themselves a bet. The brother has…

Review: Sunset Overdrive (Microsoft Xbox One)

October 30, 2014
Insomniac Games/Microsoft Xbox One/open world game/Reviews/Shooter/Sunset Overdrive/XB1/Xbox One review

Review by Nick H. If any genre was in need of ‘something different’, it was the shooter. Sunset Overdrive succeeds in multiple ways, because the team has found a way to fuse several different elements into the gameplay and managed to create something different both in how the game handles,…

Trailer: The nurturing beauty and survivalist melancholia of Shelter 2

October 30, 2014
Indie/Might and Delight/News/Shelter 2/trailer

News by Jedediah H. Nature is the most fabulous collection of phenomena. Without the trespass of human influence, she offers every organism within her biosphere a fair chance at life or death. No animal is preferred over another. Even the noblest (and cutest) of creatures perish before they can pass…

digitallydownloaded.net/News

News by Matt S. This is an entirely self-indulgent news post, but I thought it was pretty cool to note anyway; Digitally Downloaded today has published its 5,000th article. When DDNet was started five years or so ago, as a little blog for fun, I had no idea that it…

Indie/Interview/Interviews/PC/Strategy/Strategy RPG/That Which Sleeps

Interview by Jedediah H. Other than a water balloon fight in the midst of a drought, there’s nothing quite like playing the ideal good guy/ girl. You get to wear fashion-forward attire, fall in love with a personified version of elegance, morality, and tenacity, and maybe towards the end, before…

Trailer: Final Fantasy Type-0: Enter the Fray, prepare for the blood

October 29, 2014
Final Fantasy Type-0/Final Fantasy Type-0 HD/News/Square Enix/trailer

News by Jedediah H. Because the Final Fantasy series is responsible for my induction into the world of playful gaming participation (I was mostly an observer, watching my brother play, before FF II for the SNES), I keep an eye on the birth and development of just about anything related…

Review: Screencheat (PC)

Australia/Indie/local multiplayer/Multiplayer/multiplayer only game/PC/Reviews/Screen Cheat

Review by Matt S. I want to get this out of the way immediately: I am very disappointed that so little was done between the beta of Screencheat and the final version. When game breaking bugs happen in a beta it’s easy to forgive them. It’s equally easy to ignore…

DLC/DLC Review/hack and slash/Hyrule Warriors/Koei Tecmo/Nintendo/Nintendo Wii U/Omega Force/Reviews/Team Ninja/Warriors/Wii U Review

Review by Brad L. It is no secret that a lot of us love the Warriors series here at Digitally Downloaded. I’m sure many a reader here knows how Matt was first introduced to the series. You could easily say he is probably the biggest fan of the Warriors games…
